Model LL100 PC-based Parameters Setting Tool
GS 05G01B12-01E
General
The LL100 PC-based Parameters Setting Tool is a software package used to set the setup parameters, operating parameters, and program patterns* of the GREEN Series controllers from a personal computer. This tool allows users to download, upload, print out parameters, and display PV trend data during PID tuning, etc.
The multi-monitoring function can detect two or more controllers automatically, and can display or save trend data like PV, etc.
*: For program controllers only .
Parameters (Program) Setting
Functions
Sets and changes the controller’s parameters such as the controller mode (UT/UP mode), universal input/output selection, setup parameters, operating parameters, and program pattern parameters* (program/start conditions and patterns).
Note: Uploading/downloading/comparing parameters via
Ethernet is impossible for the controller operated by custom computation function (UT mode 21 or UP mode 21). Use front communication or serial terminal communication.
*: For program controllers only .
Tuning Function:
This function is used to tune the PID parameters of the controllers. The PID parameters can be tuned and the auto­tuning function can be executed while the trend graphs of PV, SP, and control output are being displayed on a personal computer screen.
Downloading, Uploading, and Comparing Parameters:
When the controller operation is stopped, users can down­load the created parameter data to the controller and upload the parameter data from the controller. It is also possible to compare the parameter data created using this tool with the data in the controller.
File Management Function:
This function allows users to save the parameter data created using this tool and those uploaded from the controller to the hard disk of a personal computer or a floppy disk. It is also possible to compare the parameter data created using this tool with those in the parameter files created in the past.
Printout Function:
Parameter data can be printed out from a printer connected to a personal computer.
(with Multi-monitoring Function)
Multi-monitoring Function
This function allows users to display and collect PV, SP, control output and alarm generating state as trend data. It is possible to detect two or more controllers (a maximum of 16 loops) connected to the personal computer automatically, and to display trend graphs on a personal computer screen.
Tuning Function:
This function is used to tune the PID parameters of the controller. The PID parameters can be tuned, the auto-tuning function can be excuted for every connection loop and an operating mode can be changed while the trend graphs of PV, SP and control output are being displayed on a personal computer screen.
File Management Function:
The trend data collected by the monitoring function can be saved as a CSV format so that commercial spreadsheet software like Microsoft Excel can treat data. The saved trend data can be read and displayed as trend graph.
Parameter Setting Function for
Ethernet Converter
Sets the parameters related to the Ethernet communication function of the Ethernet/RS485 converter, VJET.

Connection between the Controller and a Per-
sonal Computer
[Via Dedicated Adapter]
By attaching a dedicated adapter to the controller’s front panel, users can upload and download parameter data to and from a personal computer.
To communicate via the dedicated adapter:
Dedicated adapter (optical/electrical signal converter)
Controller
Dedicated cable
Personal computer
USB terminals
[Via RS-485 Communication Terminals]
Users can also upload and download parameter data to and from a personal computer via the rear communication terminals of the controller. This connection requires an RS­232C/RS-485 converter (ML2).
To communicate via the communication terminals:
[Via Ethernet Communication Terminal]
The UT351-xA/UT551-xA to xD controllers can communi­cate with a personal computer via the Ethernet communica­tion terminal. Connect a personal computer and a communi­cable network using a cable that meets the 10BASE-T/ 100BASE-TX standards. Also, the UT351-xA/UT551-xA to xD controllers and VJET converter can use the Ethernet­serial gateway function to communicate with the GREEN Series controllers equipped with the communication functions via network. In this case, cross-connect the rear communication terminals of the UT351-xA/UT551-xA to xD/VJET and of the GREEN Series controllers.
