Chapter 1 Overview
1.Overview
This chapter first explains what custom computation is and then introduces the tool used to configure
these computations and the model and suffix codes of the US1000 controller models to which the tool
applies.
This chapter also discusses the system requirements that must be met to be able to use the LL1200
tool and shows external views of the dedicated adapter and cable.
1.1Function Overview of the LL1200 Tool
The LL1200 tool is designed to run on a personal computer connected to the US1000 controller. You
can set a variety of functions for the US1000 controller from the personal computer. Inversely, you
can read the settings from the US1000 controller.
In addition to these operations, you can set the various parameters of the US1000. This particular
function is the same as the one offered by Model LL1100 PC-based Parameters Setting Tool, another
tool used with the US1000 controller. This manual does not therefore discuss this function in particular. When you use this function in your practical applications, refer to the Model LL1100 PC-basedParameters Setting Tool instruction manual (supplied together with this manual).

The LL1200 tool is designed to run under Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0. For details on how to
use the personal computer and Windows software, see their respective instruction manuals.
IM 5G1A11-01E1-1
The US1000 controller comes with built-in control functions and various controller modes (US
modes) that provide different I/O computing functions. These modes are designed to support their
respective control applications. From these choices, you can choose one that best meets your application needs.
In some control applications, however, you may want to execute special computations based upon
specific input data or have a contact output of a specific data item in a specific control sequence. To
be able to meet these needs, the US1000 controller provides a separate controller mode with which
you can freely program your own computations. Computing functions available in these modes are
referred to as custom computations.
Custom computations allow you to perform a variety of calculations based on input and output signals.
These calculations include not only the four arithmetic operations and logical operations but also tensegment linear approximations, temperature and humidity computations, temperature-based correction
coefficient computations, pressure-based correction coefficient computations, and so on.
For example, you can use the four arithmetic operations to apply the desired type of correction to
input signals, or use a logical operation to program a sequencing process that works between input and
output contacts.
Custom computations are configured using the given methods of block connection, as shown in
Figures 1.1.2 and 1.1.3.

Chapter 1 Overview
When custom computations are in use, you can also freely configure the operation displays of the
US1000 controller to suit your desired view. This function is designed so that you can choose from
the preset menus the types of data items, the sequence in which the data items are shown, and the
conditions required to show them on the PV and SV digital displays of the US1000 controller. The
displays thus configured are referred to as custom displays.
Normally, the term “custom computing function” is used to include both the custom computation and
custom display functions.

2.3Connecting the US1000 Controller to the Personal
Computer
The US1000 controller can be connected to a personal computer in two ways; using either the optical
communication interface on the controller’s front panel or the RS-485 communication terminal on the
rear panel (if the US1000 controller has the “/A10” option).
This section discusses the way the US1000 controller is connected to the personal computer using the
optical communication interface.
Connect the controller to the computer either before or after you configure the custom computations.
See Section 3.2, “Flow of Working with the LL1200 Tool,” for more information.
See Also
Chapter 1, “Setup,” in the US1000 Digital Indicating Controller-Communication Functions instruction
manual (IM 5D1A01-10E), for details on how to wire the US1000 controller using the RS-485
communication terminal.
NOTE
The dedicated adapter has an internal switch (located where the adapter comes into contact with the
US1000 controller). Exercise care to avoid breaking the switch when attaching the adapter onto the
US1000 controller. Installing the adapter in place automatically turns on the switch, causing the
batteries to discharge even if no communication is done. If you have no immediate plan to communicate, keep the adapter removed from the US1000 controller.

WARNING
When using an external power source, take care to ensure that the polarities of the AC adapter are
correct. Do not apply power from the AC adapter in excess of the power ratings of the dedicated
adapter. Either of these cases may result in damage to the controller.

Basic Operations for Configuring Custom
Computations and Relevant Explanations
This chapter explains the procedure for configuring custom computations.
For details on the preparatory work for using the LL1200 tool, see Chapter 2, "Setup." Likewise, for
an overview of the procedure for configuring custom computations and displays, see Chapter 3,
"Using the LL1200 Tool."
Also refer to Chapter 4, "List of Computation Modules and Their Functions," in the Model LL1200PC-based Custom Computation Building Tool-User's Reference instruction manual (IM 5G1A11-02E),
for detailed specifications of the computation modules.
In order to configure custom computations, you must follow the steps shown below.
●Step 1: Choosing the Way Computations Are Configured --------------------------- (Section 4.1)
●Step 2: Configuring Custom Computations in an Input Block ----------------------- (Section 4.2)
●Step 3: Configuring Custom Computations in an Output Block --------------------- (Section 4.3)
●Step 5: Setting USER Parameters (as necessary) ------------------------------------- (Section 4.5)
When you are finished with these steps, download the configured custom computations to the US1000
controller (see Section 8.2). Then, verify their performance by means of custom computation monitoring (see Chapter 11).

There are four ways of configuring custom computations, as described below. Choose one of these
four ways.
TIP
If you are configuring custom computations for the first time, it is advisable that you use a sample file.
For your information, Section 4.2, “Step 2: Configuring Custom Computations in an Input Block,”
uses the sample file (USM01.1SC) for single-loop control to explain all the operating procedures that
follow that particular section.

Dual-loop type
Cascade type
The following are used:
• One PID computation
• Switching among loop-1 CAS, AUTO and MAN modes
• Switching between RUN/STOP modes
• Switching between the loop-1 Open/Close modes
The following are used:
• Two PID computations
• Switching among loop-1 CAS, AUTO and MAN modes
• Switching among loop-2 CAS, AUTO and MAN modes

Computation modules can be positioned anywhere within the input block. You should however locate
them as close as possible to the input signals (AIN1 to AIN3 and DI1.st to DI7.st) for the input block

As was the case in the previous subsection, Figure 4.2.9 shows an input block for single-loop control
where a logical NOT operation module is added.
In this block diagram, analog input 1 (AIN1) is connected to the input of an EUCONV module ranked
first in the order of execution. Since the EUCONV module requires parameters, a constant data value
of 0 is set for both parameters P1 and P2.
For more information on the handling of P1 and P2 parameters, see Chapter 4, “List of Computation
Modules and Their Functions,” in the Model LL1200 PC-based Custom Computation Building Tool-User’s Reference instruction manual (IM 5G1A11-02E).
The output of the EUCONV module, which is ranked first in the order of execution, is connected to
the input of the PLINE1 module which is ranked second in the order of execution. The PLINE1
module has no parameters. Analog input AIN3 is connected to the input of the EUCONV module
ranked third in the order of execution. The constant data values of 2 and 0 are set in parameters P1
and P2 of the EUCONV module. In addition, contact input 1 is connected to the input of the NOT

4.2.4Step 2-4: Setting the Analog-input Burnout Function
- Explanation
The US1000 controller has a function designed to switch the output of a loop in use to the preset
value in the event of an A/D conversion failure or analog-input burnout. This function is configured
in the following step.
To use the function, determine which output signal among PV1, PV2, CSV1 and CSV2 should be
coupled with signals coming in through the AIN1, AIN2 and AIN3 inputs.
In the example shown in the [Connection of Analog Input Burnout Information] dialog box (Figure
4.2.17), AIN1 is coupled with PVIN.1 and AIN3 with CSV.1. This configuration switches the loop-1
MV output value to the preset one if a burnout occurs at either the AIN1 or AIN3 input.

computations in an
output block
This step involves registering the computation modules you want to perform operations in an output
block, in the order they are executed. You can register a maximum of 30 computation modules.
NOTE
It is recommended that the output blocks included in the US mode of the US1000 be used as they are.
The output selection modules listed below can be used to select the output type using the output
selection parameter (MVS1 or MVS2). If you make any change to the way an output selection
module is connected, the output in question may fail to function correctly.
Available output selection modules: OUTSEL1, OUTSEL11, OUTSEL12, OUTSEL13, OUTSEL2
and OUTSEL21
NOTE
When applying time-proportional PID computation, do not allow the computation to be carried out
between the output selection module and an output signal (OUT1A, OUT2A, OUT1R or OUT2R).
Figure 4.3.3 shows an output block for single-loop control where a logical OR operation module is
added. The following paragraphs explain how to add an OR module to the diagram of an output block
for single-loop control.
These signals are automatically connected
according to the setting in the MV output selection
parameter (MVS1 setup parameter)

- Operation: Registering the Modules
TIP
Computation modules can be positioned anywhere within the output block. You should however locate
them as close as possible to the output signals (PV.1, PV.2, CSV.1, CSV.2, MV.1, MV.2, HMV.1,
HMV.2, CMV.1, CMV.2, RET1, RET2 and RET3) for the output block connected to the modules.
This strategy makes wiring between module I/Os visible and simple.

As was the case in the previous subsection, Figure 4.3.9 shows an output block for single-loop control
where a logical OR operation module is added.
In this block diagram, the MV.1, HMV.1, CMV.1 RET1, RET2 and RET3 control and computing
signals are connected to the inputs of an OUTSEL1 module ranked first in the order of execution.
This module has no parameters. The OUTSEL11, OUTSEL12 and OUTSEL13 modules, which are
ranked second, third and fourth in the order of execution, respectively, have neither inputs nor parameters. The constant value “1” is coupled with the input of the CONST module ranked fifth in the
order of execution. In addition, the output statuses of alarms 1 to 4 are coupled with the inputs of the
OR module which was registered in the previous subsection and is ranked sixth in the order of
execution.
These signals are automatically connected
according to the setting in the MV output selection
parameter (MVS1 setup parameter)
