CTi Automation - Phone: [phone] - Fax: [phone] - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: [e-mail]

The AD268, DA264, and TC218 are the analog input/output modules for Toshiba’s Programmable
Controller PROSEC T2-series (T2/T2E/T2N).
Read this manual thoroughly before using this module. Also, keep this manual and related manuals
so that you can read them anytime while this module is in operation.

Safety Symbols

The following safety symbols are used on the product and/or in the related manuals.
Pay attention to the information preceded by the following symbols for safety.

!

WARNING

!

CAUTION

Safety Pr ecau tion s

• Turn off power to the PLC (T2, T2E or T2N) and to this module (AD268, DA264 or TC218)
before removing or mounting this module. Failure to do so can cause electrical shock or
damage to this product.

• Read the Safety Precautions described in the T2, T2E or T2N User’s Manual before using
this module.

• Follow the instructions described in this manual and in the T2, T2E or T2N User’s Manual
when installing and wiring this module.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in death o r serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may
result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against
unsafe p r actices.

!

CAUTION

• This module has been designed for the T2/T2E/T2N. Use your AD268/DA264/TC218 only
on the T2-series PLC rack.

• These modules consume the internal 5 Vdc power as shown below.

AD268 ... 300 mA
DA264 ... 230 mA

TC218 ... 300 mA
Confirm that the total 5 Vdc consumed current per one power supply module is within the
limit (2.5 A). If it exceeds the limit, the T2/T2E/T2N cannot operate properly and this may
cause unsafe situation.

The AD268 performs the following operations.
The external analog signals come to th e buffer amplifier through the filter. The multiplexer
sequentially selects CH1 to CH8 to convert the input analog signals into digital data via the A/D
converte r. Th e converte d digital data reaches to the internal control circuit through optical
isolator. Every time when the T2 CPU requests to read the converted data, the internal control
circuit sends the data to the T2 CPU. The AD268's parameters are stored in the EEPROM.

3. Input Type Setting

CTi Automation - Phone: [phone] - Fax: [phone] - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: [e-mail]

3. Input Type Setting

The AD268 supports multiple input ranges, ±5V, ±10V, 0 to 5V, 0 to 10V, 1 to 5V, 0 to 20mA,
or 4 to 20mA. The input range is selected by jumper plug setting and the parameter writing by
the T2 program .

The general flow for setting the input type is as follows.
(1) Set the jumper plugs to select voltage input or current input.

(2) Mount the AD268 onto the T2 rack.
(3) Turn on power to the T2 system.
(4) Execute I/O all ocation.
(5) Program the "input type setting program". (see the nex t page)
(6) Turn the T2 to RUN mode.

3.1 Jumper plug setting

8 jumper plugs are provided on the AD268 board.
The jumper plug setting is for selecting either voltage input or current input.

JP1 is for channel 1, JP2 is for channel 2, ... JP8 is for channel 8.

PART 1 AD268

•Use a pair of tweezers to set the jumper plug.

•Pay attention not to touch the components on

the board other than the jumper plug.

3. Input Type Setting

3.2 Parameter setting by software

The input range of the AD268 is specified by writing the following parameter data into the
AD268's buffer memory. To access the buffer memory, T2 user program (READ and WRITE
instructions) is requi red.
When the parameter is set to the AD268, it is saved in the AD268's built-in EEPROM.
Therefore, once the input type parameter is set, there is no need to execute the input type
setting operation.

4.3 Wiring precautions

(1) Use shielded twisted-pair cables for analog input signal lines and wire them in shortest

distance. Connect the cable shield to ground in shortest distance for EMC conformity.
Normally the grounding method (a) is recommended. However, depending on the condition,
method (b) or (c) may be useful for stable operation.

(2) Separate the analog signal cable from other cables to prevent noise interference. (200mm

or more)

(3) This module requires 24Vdc power. Apply the 24Vdc power before (or at the same time)

applying T2’s main power. Otherwise, this module detects the external 24Vdc error.

(4) If the external 24Vdc power for this module is not stable, the converte d data will not be

stable. In this case, use a dedicated 24Vdc power supply for this module.

(5) It is recommended to short the unused channels. Because if it is open for voltage input,

meaningless A/D conversion data will appear.

(6) If the converted data is not stable owing to electrical noise, it is recommended to use the

input averaging function to reduce the noise interference. For the averaging function, refer
to section 6.

5. I/O Allocation and Programming

5.1 Allocation to the T2 registers

The I/O type of th e AD268 is "X 8 W".
When the automatic I/O allocation operation is performed with a AD268 mounted on the rack,
the AD268 is allocated as "X 8W".
The AD268 occupies the 8 consecutive input (XW) registers of the T2.
In this manual, these assigned I/O registers are expressed as XW(n), XW(n+1), ... XW(n+7).

The following figure shows an example of I/O allocation window of the T-PDS programming
software. In this case, the AD268 is mounted in the slot 0 of base unit BU218.

5.2 A/D conversion data

The analog signals received by the AD268 are converted into the digital data in this module.
These con v e rt e d digi tal data are read by T2 CPU in the batch I/O processing and stored in the
assigned input registers as follows.

XW(n) ........ A/D conversion data for channel 1

XW(n+1) .... A/D conversion data for channel 2

XW(n+2) .... A/D conversion data for channel 3

XW(n+3) .... A/D conversion data for channel 4

XW(n+4) .... A/D conversion data for channel 5

XW(n+5) .... A/D conversion data for channel 6

XW(n+6) .... A/D conversion data for channel 7

XW(n+7) .... A/D conversion data for channel 8

The conversion data stored in the XW register is dependent on the input type as follows.

5. I/O Allocation and Programming

5.3 Programming

To read the A/D conversion data, there is no need to use special instruction. The A/D
conversion data are automatically stored in the assigned input registers (XW registers).

For example, when the AD268 is allocated to XW000 to XW007, the A/D conversion data of
each channel is stored as follows.

XW000 : Channel 1 A/D conversion data
XW001 : Channel 2 A/D conversion data
XW002 : Channel 3 A/D conversion data
XW003 : Channel 4 A/D conversion data
XW004 : Channel 5 A/D conversion data
XW005 : Channel 6 A/D conversion data
XW006 : Channel 7 A/D conversion data
XW007 : Channel 8 A/D conversion data

Therefore, in t he user program, you can use these XW registers directly for the analog data
processing.

The program shown below is an example of simple comparison with the channel 1 analog data.
(±10V setting)

Line 1: When XW000 is greater than 25600 (channel 1 analog input is more than 8V), R0100

is set to ON.

Line 2: When XW000 is in the range of -9600 to 9600 (channel 1 analog input is in the range

of -3V to 3V), R0101 is set to ON.

Line 3: When XW000 is less than -16000 (channel 1 analog input is less than -5V), R0102 is

set to ON.

6. Parameters

The AD268 has the memory that stores the control parameters, input type designation, module
status information, etc. This memory is called the buffer memory. To access (read/write) this
memory from the T2 program, READ and WRITE instructions are used.

6.1 Memory map

The contents of the AD268's buffer memory are as fo llo w s .
