SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Design Precautions
Warning
Install a safety circuit external to the PLC that keeps the entire system
safe even when there are problems with the external power supply or
the PLC module. Otherwise, serious trouble could result from
erroneous output or erroneous operation.
- Outside the PLC, construct mechanical damage preventing interlock
circuits such as emergency stop, protective circuits, positioning upper
and lower limits switches and interlocking forward/reverse operation.
When the PLC detects the following problems, it will stop calculation and
turn off all output in the case of watchdog timer error, module interface
error, or other hardware errors.
However, one or more outputs could be turned on when there are
problems that the PLC CPU cannot detect, such as malfunction of output
device (relay, transistor, etc.) itself or I/O controller. Build a fail safe
circuit exterior to the PLC that will make sure the equipment operates
safely at such times. Also, build an external monitoring circuit that will
monitor any single outputs that could cause serious trouble.
Make sure all external load connected to output does NOT exceed the
rating of output module.
Overcurrent exceeding the rating of output module could cause fire, damage
or erroneous operation.
Build a circuit that turns on the external power supply when the PLC
main module power is turned on.
If the external power supply is turned on first, it could result in erroneous
output or erroneous operation.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Design Precautions
Caution
Do not bunch the control wires or communication cables with the main
circuit or power wires, or install them close to each other. They should
be installed 100mm (3.94inch) or more from each other.
Not doing so could result in noise that would cause erroneous operation.

5.3 Operation Processing

5.3.1 Operation Processing Method
1) Cyclic operation
A PLC program is sequentially executed from the first step to the last step, which is called scan. This sequential
processing is called cyclic operation. Cyclic operation of the PLC continues as long as conditions do not change
for interrupt processing during program execution. This processing is classified into the following stages:
Stages
Processing
Operation Start
Stage for the start of a scan processing. it is executed only one

time when the power is applied or reset is executed. It executes
the following processing..
I/O reset
Execution of self-diagnosis
Data clear
Allocating I/O address and type
Initialization
Input conditions are read and stored into the input image area
before starts processing.
Input image area refresh
Program is sequentially executed from the first step to the last step
Program operation processing
Program operation processing

Program starts
~
Program ends
The contents stored in the output image area is output to output part
when operation processing of a program is finished.
Output image area refresh
Stage for return processing after the CPU part has finished 1 scan.
END processing
The END processing following processing is executed.

Self-diagnosis
Change the present values of timer and counter, etc.
Processing data communications between computer link module
and communications module.
Checking the switch for mode setting.
5-6

2) Interrupt operation method
If a situation occurs which is requested to be urgently processed during execution of a PLC program, this opera
tion method processes immediately the operation, which corresponds to interrupt program. The signal, which infor
ms the CPU of those urgent conditions is called interrupt signal. The MASTER-K120S CPU has three kind of int
errupt operation methods, which are internal, external and high speed counter interrupt signal methods.
5.3.2 Operation Processing at Momentary Power Failure Occurrence

The momentary power failure occurs when the input line voltage to the power supply falls down below the rated
voltage. When momentary power failure within 10ms occurs, the CPU maintain operation processing. But If is exceeds
10ms, CPU stop processing and all output turns off. And The re-start process is executed as the power is re-applied.
1) Momentary power failure within 10 ms
The operation processing is maintained

Input power
Momentary power failure

within 1Oms
2) Momentary power failure exceeding 10 ms
The re-start process is executed as the power is re-applied.

Input power
Power failure exceeding 1Oms
REMARK
1) Momentary power failure
The PLC defining power failure is a state that the voltage of power has been lowered outside the allowable
variation range of it. The momentary power failure is a power failure of short interval (several to tens ms).
5-7
5.3.3 Scan Time

The processing time from a 0 step to the 0 step of next scan is called scan time.
1) Expression for scan time

Scan time is the sum of the processing time of scan program that the user has written, of the task program processing time
and the PLC internal processing time.
(1) Scan time = Scan program processing time + Interrupt program processing time + PLC internal processing time
Scan program processing time = The processing time used to process a user program that is not specified
to a task program.
Interrupt program processing time = Total of the processing times of interrupt programs executed during
one scan.
PLC internal processing time = Self-diagnosis time + I/O refresh time + Internal data processing time
+ Communications service processing time
(2) Scan time differs in accordance with the execution or non-execution of interrupt programs and communications
processing, etc.
2) Flags
Scan time is stored in the following system flag area.
F50 : Maximum scan time (unit: 1 ms)
F51 : Minimum scan time (unit: 1 ms)
F52 : Current scan time (unit: 1 ms)
5.3.4 Scan Watchdog Timer

1)
Watchdog timer is used to detect a delay which is attributable to abnormal operation of sequence program
(Watchdog time is set in menu of basic parameter of KGLWIN.)
2)
When watchdog timer detects an exceeding of preset watchdog time, the operation of PLC is stopped immediately
and all output is off.
3)
If an exceeding of preset watchdog time is expected in sequence program, use WDT instruction.
WDT instruction make elapsed watchdog time as zero.
4) In order to clear watchdog error, restarting the PLC or mode change to STOP mode are available.
REMARK
-. Setting range of watchdog : 10 ~ 6,000ms(unit : 10ms)
5-8

5.3.5 Timer Processing
The MASTER-K series use up count timer. There are 5 timer instructions such as on-delay (TON), off-delay (TOFF), integral
(TMR), monostable (TMON), and re-triggerable (TRTG) timer.
The measuring range of 100msec timer is 0.1 ~ 6553.5 seconds, 10msec timer is 0.01 ~ 655.35 seconds, and that of 1msec
timer is 0.001 ~ 65.53 seconds. Please refer to the MASTER-K programming manual for details.

Timer output relay
Timer type
1)
On delay timer
The current value of timer starts to increase from 0 when the input condition of TON instruction turns on. When the
current value reaches the preset value, the timer output relay turns on.
When the timer input condition is turned off, the current value becomes 0 and the timer output relay is turned off.

In general, its operation is same as on-delay timer. Only the difference is the current value will not be clear when the
input condition of TMR instruction is turned off. It keeps the elapsed value and restart to increase when the input
condition is turned on again. When the current value reaches preset value, the timer output relay is turned on.
The current value can be cleared by the RST instruction only.

The operation of retriggerable timer is same as that of monostable timer. Only difference is that the retriggerable timer is
not ignore the input condition of TRTG instruction while the timer is operating (decreasing). The current value of
retriggerable timer will be set as preset value whenever the input condition of TRTG instruction is turned on.

5.3.6 Counter Processing

The counter counts the rising edges of pulses driving its input signal and counts once only when the input signal is switched
from off to on. MASTER-K series have 4 counter instructions such as CTU, CTD, CTUD, and CTR. The followings shows
brief information for counter operation. Refer to the MASTER-K Instruction Manual for details.
1) Up counter (CTU)
-. The counter output relay is turned on when the current value reaches the preset value.
-. When the reset input is turned on, the counter output relay and current value is cleared as 0.
2) Down counter (CTD)

-. When the CPU is switched to the RUN mode, the current value is set as preset value.
-. The current value is decreased by 1 with the rising edge of counter input signal.
-. The counter output relay is turned on when the current value reaches 0.
3) Up-down counter
-. The current value is increased with the rising edge of up-count input signal, and decreased with the rising edge of
down-count input signal.
-. The counter output relay is turned on when the current value is equal or greater than the preset value otherwise off.
5-12

4) Ring counter
-. The current value is increased with the rising edge of the counter input signal, and the counter output relay is turned on
when the current value reaches the preset value. Then the current value and counter output relay is cleared as 0 when
the next counter input signal is applied.
5)
Maximum counting speed

(1) The maximum counting speed of counter is determined by the length of scan time. Counting is possible only when the
on/off switching time of the counter input signal is longer than scan time.
Maximum counting speed (C max ) =

All functional elements need to execute a certain control process are called as a program. In MASTER-K120 series, a
program is stored in the EEPROM mounted on a CPU module or flash memory of a external memory module. The following
table shows the classification of the program.
Program type
Scan program
Time-driven interrupt
program (TDI)
Description
The scan program is executed regularly in every scan
The TDI programs are executed with a constant time interval specified with parameter setting.
Process driven interrupt
The PDI programs are executed when external interrupt input is applied and the corresponding
program (PDI)
interrupt routine is enabled by EI instruction.
High speed counter driven
This interrupt programs are executed when comparison task signal is applied.
interrupt program(HSCDI)
(Standard Type only)
Subroutine program
The subroutine programs are executed when they are called by the scan program with a CALL
instruction.
5.4.2 Program Execution Procedure

The following diagram shows that how the CPU module process programs when the CPU module is powered on or switched to
RUN mode.

1) Scan program
-. The scan program is executed regularly in every scan from 0 step to last step.
-. When interrupts has occurred, CPU pauses scan program and executes corresponding interrupt program first.
-. When this interrupt program finished, scan program is to resume.
2) Interrupt program
-. When an interrupt occurs, the CPU module will stop the current operation and execute the corresponding interrupt routine
first. After finish the interrupt routine, the CPU resume the sequence program from the stopped step.
-. MASTER-K102S series provides 3 types of interrupt.
The TDI (Time driven interrupt) occurs with the constant period
The PDI (Process driven interrupt) occurs with the status of external input.
The HSCDI(High speed counter driven interrupt) occur with comparison task signal from high speed counter.
(Standard type only)
5.4.3 Interrupt Programs

1) Usage of interrupt program
(1) Before to use interrupt function in sequence program, the parameter setting should be done properly. Then the
corresponding interrupt routine should be written after END instruction. (Refer chapter 4 for details) If interrupt routines
are not matched with parameter settings, an error occurs and the operation of CPU will be stopped.
(2) To execute an interrupt routine, use the EI instruction to enable the corresponding interrupt. The interrupt routine is not
executed if an interrupt factor occurs before execution of an EI instruction. Once an interrupt is enabled with EI
instruction.
(3) When multiple interrupt factors occur simultaneously, interrupt routines are executed according to the priority given to
the each interrupt. If an interrupt factor that has higher priority occurs while other interrupt that has lower priority are
executing, the interrupt routine of lower priority will be stopped and the interrupt of higher priority will be executed first.
Following figure show how CPU handles multiple interrupts

2) parameter setting
3) Time driven interrupt

TDI occurs periodically with the constant interval assigned in parameter setting. The interrupt routine of TDI starts with the
TDINT instruction and ends with the IRET instruction.
When multiple interrupt factors occur simultaneously, interrupt routines are executed according to the priority given to the
each interrupt. If an interrupt factor has higher priority occurs while other interrupt of lower priority is executing, the interrupt
routine of lower priority will be stopped and the interrupt of higher priority will be executed first. In standard types of MK120S
series, Available TDI is P000 ~ P007 (8 points) assigned in parameter setting and period can be designated for each other.
In economic types, Available TDI is P000 ~ P003 (4 points) .
4) Process driven interrupt

In standard types of MK120S series, Available PDI is P000 ~ P007 (8 points) assigned in parameter setting.
In the parameter setting window, TDINT indicates time driven interrupt and INT indicates process driven interrupt.
PDI occurs when the input status of P000 ~ P007 is changed from Off to On or from On to Off or both.
In economic types of MK120S series, Available PDI is P000 ~ P003 (4 points), and occurs when the input status of P000 ~
P003 is changed from Off to On. It isnt occurs falling edge of input condition.
5) HSC driven interrupt

HSCDI occurs when comparison task of HSC occurs and Available HSCDI is Ch0 ~ Ch4 (4 points) .

5.4.4 Error Handling

1) Error Classification
Errors occur due to various causes such as PLC system defect, system configuration fault or abnormal operation
result. Errors are classified into fatal error mode, which stops system operation for system stability, and ordinary
error mode, which continues system operation with informing the user of its error warning.
The main factors that occurs the PLC system error are given as followings.
PLC hardware defect
System configuration error
Operation error during execution of the user programs
External device malfunction
2) Operation mode at error occurrence

In case of error occurrence, the PLC system write the error contents the corresponding flags and stops or conti
nues its operation complying with its operation mode.
(1) PLC hardware defect
The system enters into the STOP state if a fatal error such as the CPU module defect has occurred, and
continues its operation if an ordinary error such as operation error has occurred.
(2) System configuration error
This error occurs when the PLC hardware configuration differs from the configuration defined in the
K120S series. The system enters into the STOP state.
(3) Operation error during execution of the user programs
It the numeric operation error of these errors occurs during execution of the user program, its contents are
marked on the error flags and the system continues its operation. If operation time overruns the watchdog
time or I/O modules loaded are not normally controlled, the system enters into the STOP state.
5-17

(4) External device malfunction
The PLC user program detects malfunctions of external devices. If a fatal error is detected the system ent
ers into the STOP state, and if an ordinary error is detected the system continues its operation.
REMARK
1)
In occurrence of a error, the state is to be stored in the representative system error flag F006.
2) For details of flags, refer to Chapter 11. Troubleshooting.

5.6 Functions
5.6.1 Self-diagnosis
1) Functions
(1) The self-diagnosis function permits the CPU module to detect its own errors.
(2) Self-diagnosis is carried out when an error occurs during PLC power supply is turned on or operating process.
If an error is detected, the system stops operation to prevent faulty PLC operation.
2) WDT (Watch dog timer) function

The watch dog timer is an internal timer of a PLC to detect the error of hardware and a sequence program. it is
changeable with parameter setting.
The CPU resets the watch dog timer before step 0 is executed (after the END processing is finished). When the END
instruction has not been executed within the set value due to an error occurred in the PLC or the delay of a sequence
program, the watch dog timer will times out. When a watch dog timer error is occurred, all outputs of the PLC are turned
OFF, and the ERR LED of the CPU will flickers. (RUN LED will be turned OFF) Therefore, when use FOR ~ NEXT or
CALL instruction, insert WDT instruction to reset the watch dog timer.
Refer the MASTER-K programming manual for details on the parameter setting.

5.6.2
I/O Force On/Off function
It is possible to input/output a designated data regardless of the program operation results. When used with OUTOFF
instruction simultaneously, OUTOFF is prior to I/O Force On/Off.
1) Forced I/O setting method.

-. I/O Force on/off setting is applied to input area and output area.
-. I/O Force on/off should be set for each input and output, the setting operates from the time that
Force I/O setting enable is set.
-. This setting can be done when I/O modules are not really loaded.
-. Select the set forced I/O from KGLWIN
Click
-. Select the I/O area and then double click.

3) Force on/ off Processing timing and method

(1) Forced Input
After data have been read from input modules, at the time of input refresh the data of the junctions which
have been set to force on/off will be replaced with force setting data to change the input image area. And
then, the user program will be executed with real input data and force setting data.
(2) Forced output
When a user program has finished its execution the output image area has the operation results. At the time
of output refresh the data of the junctions which have been set to force on/off will be replaced with force se
tting data and the replaced data will be output. However, the force on/off setting does not change the output
image area data while it changes the input image area data.
(3) Precautions
y Turning the power off and on, changes of the operation mode or operation by reset switch does not change
the previous force on/off setting data. They remain within the CPU module and operation is executed with
the same data.
y Forced I/O data will not be cleared even in the STOP mode.
y When setting new data, disable every I/O settings using the setting data clear function and set the new data.
REMARK
-. For detailed operation, refer to the KGLWIN users Manual Chapter 7 Force I/O setting.

5.6.3
Direct I/O Operation function
This function is useful when reads an input relays state directly during execution of a program and uses in the operation, or
write the operation result directly to an output relay. Direct input/output is executed by the IORF instruction. If this instruction is
used, the input/output image area will be directly updated and applied to the continuing operations.
REMARK
-. For detailed operation, refer to the MASTER-K Manual for instruction.
5.6.4
System error history
When the system is stopped by error occurrence, the CPU stores the error occurrence time and error code to the special data
register area. The most recent 16 error occurring times and error codes are stored in the special data register.

5) Wiring instructions
A high speed pulse input is sensitive to the external noise and should be handled with special care. When wiring the built-in
high speed counter of MASTER-K120S, take the following precautions against wiring noise.
(1) Be sure to use shielded twisted pair cables. Also provide Class 3 grounding.
(2) Do not run a twisted pair cable in parallel with power cables or other I/O lines which may generate noise.
(3) Before applying a power source for pulse generator, be sure to use a noise-protected power supply.
(4) For 1-phase input, connect the count input signal only to the phase A input; for 2-phase input, connect to phases A and B.

When M0 turns on, HSC starts its operation
If current value is not less than 50,000, F170 turns on.
Current value is saved in D0(double word).
Remark
The contact point which is designated as HSC input cant be used for pulse catch or external interrupt.
Duplicated designation may cause faults.
7-13

7.1.2. Pulse Catch Function
In the main unit, 4(economic type) or 8(standard type) points of pulse catch input contact points are internalized. Through using
this contact point, short pulse signal short can be taken which can not be executed by general digital input.
1) Usage
When narrow width of pulse signal is input, a trouble occurs which can not be detected by general digital input, so the
operation does not perform as user's intention. But in this case through pulse catch function even narrow interval of pulse
signal as 10 min. can be detected.

7.1.3 Input Filter Function
External input of MASTER-K120S selects input on/off delay time from the range of 0-1000ms of KGLWIN. Credibility
secured system may be established by adjustment of input correction no. through using environment.
1) Usage
Input signal status affects to the credibility of system in where noise occurs frequently or pulse width of input signal affects
as a crucial factor. In this case the user sets up the proper input on/off delay time, then the trouble by miss operation of input
signal may be prevented because the signal which is shorter than set up value is not adopted.

7.1.5 PID control function(Standard type only)
1) Introduction
This chapter will provide information about the built-in PID (Proportional Integral Derivative) function of MASTER-K120S
main unit. The MASTER-K120S series does not have separated PID module like MASTER-K300S and MASTERK1000S series, and the PID function is integrated into the main unit.
The PID control means a control action in order to keep the object at a set value (SV). It compares the SV with a sensor
measured value (PV : Present Value) and when a difference between them (E : the deviation) is detected, the controller
output the manipulate value (MV) to the actuator to eliminate the difference. The PID control consists of three control
actions that are proportional (P), integral (I), and derivative (D).

The characteristics of the PID function of MASTER-K120S is as following;

the PID function is integrated into the CPU module. Therefore, all PID control action can be performed with
instruction (PID8,PID8AT) without any separated PID control module.
P operation, PI operation, PID operation and On/Off operation can be selected easily.
PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) output is available.
The manual output (the user-defined forced output) is available.
By proper parameter setting, it can keep stable operation regardless of external disturbance.
The operation scan time (the interval that PID controller gets a sampling data from actuator) is changeable for
optimizing to the system characteristics.
SV Ramp and Delta MV function are available.
7-19

2) Specification
(1) Control operation
(a) Proportional operation (P operation)
P action means a control action that obtain a manipulate value which is proportional to the deviation
(E : the difference between SV and PV)
The deviation (E) is obtained by difference between SV and PV and the formula of deviation is as following;
MV = Kp [SV PV ] where, Kp : the proportional constant (gain), SV: set value, PV: present value
When E happens, MV by P operation is like Fig.7.1
: Deviation
: Manipulating value
Deviation(E)
Manipulate value (MV)

Time
Fig 7.1 MV by P operation
If the Kp is too large, the PV reaches to the SV swiftly, but it may causes a bad effect like oscillations.
If the Kp is too small, oscillation will not occur. However, the PV reaches to the SV slowly and an offset may
appear between PV and SV shown in the Fig. 7.2.
The manipulation value (MV) varies from 0 to 4,000. User can define the maximum value of MV (MV_MAX) and
minimum value (MV_MIN) within the range 0 ~ 4,000.
When an offset remains after the system is stabilized, the PV can be reached to the SV by adding a certain value.
This value is called as bias value, and user can define the bias value

: Kp is too small

7-20
(b) Integral operation (I operation)

With integral operation, the manipulate value (MV) is increased or decreased continuously in accordance time in
order to eliminate the deviation between the SV and PV. When the deviation is very small, the proportional
operation can not produce a proper manipulate value and an offset remains between PV and SV. The integral
operation can eliminate the offset value even the deviation is very small.
The period of the time from when the deviation has occurred in I action to when the MV of I action become that of
P action is called Integration time and represented as Ti.
Integral action when a constant deviation has occurred is shown as the following Fig. 7.3.
Fig. 7.3 The integral action with constant deviation

The expression of I action is as following;
MV =
Kp
Edt
Ti
As shown in the expression, Integral action can be made stronger or weaker by adjusting integration time (Ti) in
I action. That is, the more the integration time (the longer the integration time) as shown in Fig. 7.4, the lesser the
quantity added to or subtracted from the MV and the longer the time needed for the PV to reach the SV.
As shown in Fig. 7.5, when the integration time given is short the PV will approach the SV in short time since the
quantity added or subtracted become increased. But, If the integration time is too short then oscillations occur,
therefore, the proper P and I value is requested.
Integral action is used in either PI action in which P action combines with I action or PID action in which P and D
actions combine with I action.

Fig. 2.6 The system response when a short integration time given
Fig. 7.5 The system response when a short integration time given
(c) Derivative operation (D action)
When a deviation occurs due to alteration of SV or external disturbances, D action restrains the changes of the
deviation by producing MV which is proportioned with the change velocity (a velocity whose deviation changes at
every constant interval) in order to eliminate the deviation.
D action gives quick response to control action and has an effect to reduce swiftly the deviation by applying a large
control action (in the direction that the deviation will be eliminated) at the earlier time that the deviation occurs.
D action can prevent the large changes of control object due to external conditions.
The period of time from when the deviation has occurred to when the MV of D action become the MV of P action is
called derivative time and represented as Td.
7-22
The D action when a constant deviation occurred is shown as Fig. 7.6
Fig. 7.6 Derivative action with a constant deviation

The expression of D action is as following;
MV = Kp Td
dE
dt
Derivative action is used only in PID action in which P and I actions combine with D action.
(d) PID action
PID action controls the control object with the manipulation quantity produced by (P+I+D) action
PID action when a given deviation has occurred is shown as the following Fig. 7.7.
Fig. 7.7 PID action with a constant deviation

7-23

(e) Integral windup
All devices to be controlled, actuator, has limitation of operation. The motor has speed limit, the valve can not flow over
the maximum value. When the control system has wide PV range, the PV can be over the maximum output value of
actuator. At this time, the actuator keeps the maximum output regardless the change of PV while the PV is over the
maximum output value of actuator. It can shorten the lifetime of actuator.
When the I control action is used, the deviation term is integrated continuously. It makes the output of I control action
very large, especially when the response characteristic of system is slow.
This situation that the output of actuator is saturated, is called as windup. It takes a long time that the actuator returns to
normal operating state after the windup was occurred.
The Fig. 7.8 shows the PV and MV of PI control system when the windup occurs. As shown as the Fig. 7.8, the actuator
is saturated because of the large initial deviation. The integral term increase until the PV reaches to the SV (deviation =
0), and then start to decrease while the PV is larger than SV (deviation < 0). However, the MV keeps the saturated status
until the integral term is small enough to cancel the windup of actuator. As the result of the windup, the actuator will
output positive value for a while after the PV reached to the SV, and the system show a large overshoot. A large initial
deviation, load disturbance, or miss-operation of devices can cause windup of actuator.
There are several methods to avoid the windup of actuator. The most popular methods are adding another feedback
system to actuator, using the model of actuator and stop integrating when actuator is saturated.

The digitized formula of P control is as following;
P (n) = K [SV (n) PV (n)]

n : sampling number K : proportional gain constant

(4) parameter setting and explanation
(a) PID8 instruction parameter setting and explanation.
Scan time
Scan time is the period of reading data (sampling), and also 10 times scaled up. The range of sampling time is
0.1 ~ 10 seconds, and actual input range is 0 ~ 100. Generally, Scan time of Digital PID control should be less
than 1/10 of time constant of system response for better performance. Time constant is the time taken the
systems step response reaches to the 63% of steady state.
Operation mode
Select automatic or manual operating mode
Manual operate range
When manual operation is designates , manual operation value designates.(input range : 0 ~ 4000)
Output limit value
Designate minimum and maximum values of available manipulate value.(range : 0 ~ 4000)
High frequency noise removal ratio
high frequency noise removal ratio is used for derivative control operation, and shows the ratio of high
frequency noise depression. If there is a lot of high frequency noise in the control system, select the value as
higher value.
Otherwise, leave the 1. The range of parameter is 0 ~ 10 and it is not scaled up, so input the designated value
directly.(it is possible that parameter value designates D area also)
.
7-26

Proportional gain
The MASTER-K120S can handle only integer, not the floating point type. Therefore, to enhance the accuracy of
PID operation, the PID8 instruction is designed to input the P_GAIN data as the 100 times scaled up. For
example, if the designated P_GAIN is 98, actual input data of P_GAIN should be 9800. If the designated
P_GAIN is 10.99, input 1099 to the P_GAIN.
Derivative time and integral time
I_TIME and D_TIME are 10 times scaled up. For example, input 18894 if the designated I_TIME value is 1889.4.
The range of actual input is 0 ~ 20000. (it is possible that parameter value designates D area also)
Mode command set
In MASTER-K120S, only the following 7 operation modes are available. Other operation modes, such as PD or I,

PWM set
PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) is a output method which changes on-off duty of output pulses by calculated
manipulation value. Fig 7.9 shows example of PWM output. Using PWM output, PID control system can be
constructed easily without D/A conversion module and power regulator.
When PWM is designates , scan time item is disabled and PWM items can be designated. In this case, scan
time is set to designated PWM output period. The range of PWM output period is 1 ~ 10 seconds, and actual
input range is 10 ~ 100. PWM output point is only available for output contact of main unit.
Example) PWM output period : 1s, Output contact : P40, MV limit range : 0~4000

SV Ramp
If a large amount of SV changes during PID operation, The deviation(E) changes rapidly. Then manipulation
value(MV) is changed rapidly also. This can cause damage on load or actuator. To prevent this situation, SV can
be changed step by step by parameter setting.
Setting range is 1~4000(Default value is 1). Setting value represents the number of time which taken from
starting set value to last set value.
For example, if SV-ramp is set to 1000 and SV changed from 1000 to 3000 during operation, it changes 2 every
scan and reach 3000 after 1000 scan time.
SV Ramp = 1
Changed SV
SV Ramp is designates
SV Ramp * Scan time
Current SV
Time
Delta MV
This is useful when wants to limit maximum change of manipulation value.
Setting range is 0 ~ 4000 and default value is 4000.
Bias
The Bias data is used for the compensation of offset in the proportional control. The range of input is 0 ~ 4000.
Be cautious that The actual range of Bias is 2000 ~ 2000. namely, 0~2000 represents 0 ~ +2000 and 2001 ~
4000 represents -1 ~ -2000.
Example> If offset(SV-PV) is 100 Bias should be 100.
If offset(SV-PV) is -100 Bias should be 2100.
SV(Target) and PV(Current)
SV (setting value : the designated value) and PV (process value : present value) of MK120S PID operation have
the range 0 ~ 4000. The range is set with the consideration of the resolution of A/D and D/A module of MK120S
series (12bits) and offset value.
PID Algorithm
In MASTER-K120S, two type of PID algorithm is available, The velocity form(Speed) and positioning form.
Velocity form(Speed) operates incremental manners. Namely, It calculates the change( n) required from
previous manipulate value(MVn-1), But positioning form calculates an absolute manipulate value(MVn) every
sampling steps. Generally, The velocity form is suit for the system whichs load change is slow like temperature
control system, and positioning form is useful for system whichs load change is fast.
7-28

(b) PID8AT instruction parameter setting and explanation.
Scan time
S_TIME is the period of reading data (sampling), and 10 times scaled up for more precious operation.
The range of sampling time is 0.1 ~ 10 seconds, and actual input range is 0 ~ 100.
Control target(SV)
SV (set value : the designated value) and PV (process value : present value) of MASTER-K120S PID operation
have the range 0 ~ 4000. The range is set with the consideration of the resolution of A/D and D/A module of
MASTER-K120S series (12 bits) and offset value. When setting the SV or PV, please be careful convert the
analog value of control object (temperature, velocity, etc.) to digital value that are the output of A/D convert
module.
When using sensor and A/D conversion module
Assume that PID control is used for temperature control with Pt100 (operation range : -200 C ~ 600 C),
and the goal value is 100 C. The equivalent digital output of A/D module (current input range : 4 ~ 20mA) is
1500 if the A/D module outputs 0 (4mA) with -200 C, and 4000(20mA) with 600 C. Therefore, the input of
SV should be 1500, not 100.
When using sensor and RTD module(G7F-RD2A)
Assume that PID control is used for temperature control with Pt100 (operation range : -200 C ~ 600 C),
and the goal value is 100 C. The digital output of RTD module is calculated as below.
DigitalOutput =
Temp. 10 + 2000
2
Therefore, SV should be 1500,

Tuning method
The MASTER-K120S perform auto-tuning operation in two methods. One is relay response method and the
other is process reaction curve method.

3) Parameter setting
(1) Scaling function

This function convert automatically range when the inout/output range is not matched.
In case that input/output is current , this function is useful that external equapment range is not matched each other.
(MASTER-K120S series converts range automatically as following : 0 ~ 20mA 4 ~ 20mA)

Resolution : 20 /3200 = 6.25
Resolution : 20 /4000 = 5
Conversion method is as below
scaling conversion value (A/D conversion) = [(data of 0 ~ 20 ) 800] x 4000/3200

example) in case of 8 input at range 0 ~ 20
before the scaling conversion : 8 / 5 = 1600
after the scaling conversion : (1600 800) x 1.25 = 1000
scaling conversion value (D/A conversion) = [(data of 4 ~ 20 ) x 3200/4000] + 800
example) in case of 1000 output at range 4 ~ 20
current output value before the scaling conversion : 1000 x 5 = 5
current output value after the scaling conversion : (1000 x 0.8) + 800 = 1600
1600 x 5 = 8

4) Wiring
(1) Caution for wiring
Make sure that external input signal of the mixture module of AC and analog I/O is not affected by induction noise or occurs
from the AC through using another cable.
Wire is adopted with consideration about peripheral temperature and electric current allowance. Thicker than Max. size of
wire AWG22 (0.3 ) is better.
If wire is put near to high temp. radiated device or contacted with oil for a long time, it may cause of electric leakage so that
it gets broken or miss-operation during wiring.
Be sure to connect with care of polarity while connecting to external 24V DC power supply.
In case of wiring with high voltage line or generation line, it makes induction failure so then it may cause of miss-operation
and out of order.

8) Burn-out detection function
The RTD input module has the function of burn-out detection on the Pt100, JPt100 or cable.
As shown below, if disconnection occurs in the RTD or cable then a voltage outside the measurable range voltage is
inputted by the internal burn-out detection circuit and burn-out detection error code is generated.
The RTD input module can detect disconnection for each channel. But, burn-out detection is possible only in the
channels enabled.
If disconnection is detected in two or more wires, first, disconnection error code is generated by b and then
disconnection error code is generated by A or b sequentially. If disconnection is detected simultaneously in A and
B, only disconnection error code is generated by b.

(2) Wiring example
Number of method of connection between Pt and RTD input module are three, that is, 2-wired type, 3-wired type and 4-w
wired type.
The resistance of the wires used to connect Pt to RTD input module should be 10 or less per wire.
The same wire (in thickness, length, and kind, etc.) should be used for each channel.

7.3.2 Positioning function

1) Positioning function
Positioning Control includes position control, speed control.
(1) Position control
Positioning control from start address (present stopped position) to goal address (transfer amount) for the assigned axis
A) Control by Absolute method (Absolute coordinate)
Positioning control from start address to goal address (the address assigned by positioning data).
Positioning control is carried out based on the address assigned (origin address) by return to origin.
Transfer direction shall be determined by start address and goal address.
Start address < Goal address : forward direction positioning
Start address > Goal address : reverse direction positioning
Example] When Start address is 1000 and goal address is 8000, this will be forward direction and transfer amount
shall be 7000 (7000=8000-1000).

7) Return to Origin(POSORG : Rising edge )
Return to Origin (homing) is carried out to confirm the origin of the machine when applying the power.
In case of Return to Origin, it is required to set Return to Origin parameter for each axis.
If the origin position is determined by origin return, the origin detection signal is not recognized during positioning operation.
(1) Origin return method

(C) Origin detection by approximate origin
The items that effects to the origin return from parameter are as follows.
(A) Origin return speed (high speed, low speed)
(B) Origin return dwell time
(2) Origin Detection when Approximate origin turns off

This is the method using the approximate origin and origin signal and the action by origin return command(POSORG) is as
follows.
(A) It accelerates to the setting origin return direction and acts by origin return high speed.

9) Speed Override Command(POSSOR : Rising edge ))

This is used to change the operation speed from operation data of step no. in operation of each axis
This command is used only in Acceleration and Constant speed section from operation pattern.
Setting range is 5 ~ 100,000
This command can be used in position control and speed control.
Remark
If POSSOR is executed in deceleration section, error code H44 will occur and continues operation

10) External Input Stroke High/Low Limit

External input stroke limit includes External input high limit signal and External input low limit signal.
This is used to stop the positioning function promptly before reaching Stroke limit/Stroke End of the Driver by installing the
stroke limit inside Stroke limit/Stroke end of the Driver.
If it deviates the high limit, Error H53 will occur and if it deviates the low limit, Error H54 will occur.
External input stroke limit can be set in KGLWIN parameter
High/Low limit input contact point is fixed to P0,P1 for ch0 and P2,P3 for ch1.

If positioning module stops out of the range available to control, the positioning operation does not work.
If it stops by external input stroke limit detection, move within the range of positioning module available to control by
manual operation (Jog operation).
As external input stroke high/low limit error is detected by the edge of positioning module, it is available to release the
output prohibit out of stroke range and carry out manual operation.
The flags related with external input stroke limit are as followings.
- F284(Ch0) Off : External input stroke Low limit has not detected, On : External input stroke Low limit has detected
- F285(Ch0) Off : External input stroke High limit has not detected, On : External input stroke High limit has detected
- F304(Ch1) Off : External input stroke Low limit has not detected, On : External input stroke Low limit has detected
- F305(Ch1) Off : External input stroke High limit has not detected, On : External input stroke High limit has detected
Point
If external input stroke High/Low limit signal is occur during origin return, it stops operation immediately,
Then, changes direction and continues origin return operation.

12) Error and Output Prohibition

Error includes Light failure error and Heavy failure error.
If light failure error occurs, the positioning operation will continue and only error will occur.
In case of heavy failure error, if the error is not cleared, it is not available to carry out the positioning operation. And if the
heavy failure error occurs during operation, the operation will stop.
If external high/low limit, external emergency stop during the positioning operation are detected during the positioning
operation, it stops promptly and becomes the pulse output prohibition status. Thus it is required to release the pulse
output prohibition by Error reset command(POSCTR)
For further information, please refer to Error code list .

(B) Backlash Compensation Amount

The tolerance that the machine does not work by the wear when the rotation direction changes in case that a gear,
screw etc is combined to run at the motor axle, is called as Backlash.
Therefore, when you change the rotation direction, it is required to add the backlash compensation amount to the
positioning amount for output.
The setting range is 0 1,000(unit: Pulse) at each axis.
If the position moved 1m to the right and again 1m to the left, it is not possible to reach the original position by
backlash. At this time, it is required to add backlash compensation amount.

(C) Bias Speed

As the stepping motor has unstable torque near zero speed, the start speed shall be set in the beginning of operation
in command to smooth the rotation of motor and reduce the positioning time. The speed to be set at this time is called
Bias Speed.
The setting range is 510,000(unit: 1pps) at each axis.

The speed that acts to the constant speed section via acceleration section by origin return command.
Origin return-high speed setting range : 5 100,000(unit: 1pps)
Origin return-Low speed
The speed that acts to the constant speed section via deceleration section by origin return command.
Origin return-low speed setting range : 5 100,000(unit: 1pps)
Remark
When setting the origin return speed, it is recommended to set the origin return-low speed as low speed as
possible. If setting the low speed as too fast, it may cause the incorrect origin signal detection.
(D) Dwell Time

This is the time needed to maintain the precise stop accuracy of SERVO motor when using the SERVO motor for
positioning.
Practically, Dwell time is the time needed to remove the residual pulse of deviation counter after completion of
positioning and especially Dwell time when returning to the origin is called as origin return dwell time.
Setting range of Origin return dwell time : 0 10,000(unit: 1 )
7-87
(3) JOG speed
(A) JOG High Speed

JOG high speed operation has operation pattern as acceleration, constant speed, deceleration section. Therefore,
acceleration section and deceleration section is controlled by JOG acceleration/deceleration time.
JOG high speed setting range : 5 100,000(unit: 1pps)
(notices when setting the high speed : Bias speed Jog high speed Speed limit)
(B) JOG Low Speed
JOG low speed operation has only constant speed operation pattern.
JOG low speed setting range : 5 100,000 (unit: 1pps)
2) Positioning parameter
Here describes Positioning parameter
(1) Step No.

The setting range of positioning data as serial no. is 1 20.
Remark
If step No. set to 0, operating step increase to next step automatically when current operation step finished
7-88
(2) Coordinate
The coordinate of position data includes Absolute and Incremental
(A) Absolute Coordinate (Control by Absolute method)
This carries out the positioning control from the current position to the goal position (the goal position assigned by
positioning data).
Positioning control is carried out based on the assigned position of origin return or POSPRS command
(origin address).
Transfer direction shall be determined by the current position and goal position.
- Start position < Goal position : forward direction positioning
- Start position > Goal position : reverse direction positioning
(B) Relative Coordinate (Control by Incremental method)
This carries out the positioning control as much as goal transfer amount from the current position.
Transfer direction shall be determined by the sign of transfer amount.
- When transfer direction is (+) or no sign : normal direction positioning (position increase direction)
- When transfer direction is ( - ) : reverse direction positioning (position decrease direction)
Current position
Reverse
Normal
Transfer direction when transfer amount is (+)
Transfer direction when transfer amount is (-)

(5) Positioning Address

This is the area to set the transfer amount of position data as positioning address.
The setting range is 2,147,483,648 2,147,483,647(setting unit: Pulse).
The change of position address value is available when assigned by D area
7-89
(6) Speed
Operation speed can be assigned for each operation step No.
Setting range of operation speed : 5 ~ 100,000( Setting unit: 1pps )
The change of speed value is available when assigned by D area
(7) Dwell Time
This is the waiting time before carrying out the next positioning operation after completing one positioning operation.
Setting range is 0 10,000 (setting unit : 1 ).
Especially, in case of using SERVO motor, this is the data to set the waiting time by the stable stop state as positioning
module is in the stop state but actual SERVO motor does not reach to the goal position or in transition state.

Remark
1 ) In case of VEXTA RK series, TIMMING output turns on when a motor rotates at every 7.2 degree.
For exact return to origin, we suggest you to configure AND operation using TIMMING output and DOG
sensor. It may be different to each system features to return to origin by the DOG sensor without TIMMING
output signal (The rated input for the origin of K120S is DC 24V.)
2) Using DC 24V, wire a proper resistor to driver in series.
3) Input points for origin, approximate origin point, and upper/lower limit signal are fixed but, if theyre not used you
able to use them general input point. You can use emergency stop with the command(POSCTR)
4) Positioning phase of K120S is as follow: Set the input mode of a step mode driver to 1 phase input mode
because motor operation mode is determined by rotating direction input.

signal or using a origin sensor of original signal.
3) Using DC 24V, wire a proper resistor(1.5K, 1/2W) to driver in series.
4) Positioning phase of K120S is as follow: Set the input mode of a step mode driver to 1 phase input mode
because motor operation mode is determined by rotating direction input.

Chapter 8 Communication Functions
Chapter 8. Communication Functions

8.1 Dedicated Protocol Communication
8.1.1 Introduction
MASTER-K120Ss built-in Cnet communication uses only MASTER-K120S main unit for a dedicated communication. That is, it
doesnt need a separate Cnet I/F module to facilitate the user-intended communication system by utilizing reading or writing of
any area in CPU, and monitoring function.
MASTER-K120S main unit serves as follows:
Individual/continuous reading of device
Individual/continuous writing of device
Reading CPU status
Monitor devices registration
Executing monitoring
1:1 connection (link between MASTER-Ks) system configuration (MASTER-K120S main unit : RS-232C)
Remark
MASTER-K120S built-in communication function supports Cnet communication without any separate Cnet I/F module.
It must be used under the following instructions.
1) Channel 0 of MASTER-K120S main unit supports 1:1 communication only. For 1:N system having master-slave
Format, use RS-485 communication in channel 1 or MASTER-K120S main unit with G7L-CUEC module connected.
G7L-CUEC module supports RS-422/485 protocol.
2) RS-232C communication cable for MASTER-K120S main unit is different from RS-232C cable for KGLWIN in pin
arrangement and from the cable for Cnet I/F module, too. The cable cant be used without any treatment. For the
detailed wiring method, refer to 8.1.2.
Its possible to set baud rate type and station No. in KGLWIN.

each to ASCII values from ENQ to EOT is converted into ASCII and added to BCC. For
BCC
example, the BCC of the above frame is gotten as below:

H05+H32+H30+H72+H53+H53+H30+H31+H30+H36+H25+H4D+H57+H31+H30+H30+H04
=H03A4 Therefore BCC value is A4.

This specifies how much of the blocks composed of "[device length][device name]" are in this
request format. This can be set up to 16. Therefore, the value of [Number of blocks] must be
set between H01(ASCII value:3031)-H10(ASCII value:3030).
This indicates the number of name's characters that means device, which is allowable up to 16
characters. This value is one of ASCII converted from hex type, and the range is from
H01(ASCII value:3031) to H10(ASCII value:3130). For example, if the device name is %MW0,
it has 4 characters to be H04 as its length. If %MW000 characters to be H06.
Address to be actually read is entered. This must be ASCII value within 16 characters, and in
this name, digits, upper/lower case, '%' only is allowable to be entered.

In data area, there are the values of hex data converted to ASCII code saved.
Ex.1
The fact that number of data is H04(ASCII code value:H3034) means that there is hex data of 4 bytes in data .
Hex data of 4 bytes is converted into ASCII code in data.
Ex.2
If number of data is H04 and the data is H12345678, ASCII code converted value of this is "31 32 33 34 35 36 37
38," and this contents is entered in data area. Name directly, highest value is entered first, lowest value last.
Remark
1) If data type is Bit, data read is indicated by bytes of hex. Namely, if Bit value is 0, it indicated by H00,
and if 1, by H01.

8.1.7 1:1, 1:n Built-in communication between MASTER-K120S's

1) Introduction
1:1 built-in communication between MASTER-K120S's is that which constitutes a built-in communication system with the
method of 1(master) : 1(slave). Setting Base parameter and communication parameter in KGLWIN can easily constitute this
system. Communication protocol currently applied is the same with Cnet I/F used for MASTER-K. Main functions are following.
It can organize device area into 64 data access blocks by WORD unit, and set a communication time-out limit for each
block.
It can reestablish flag in relation with error codes and slave PLC operating mode according to parameter setting.
It can reset flag related with error codes and sending/receiving error frequency of each parameter.
It monitors communication status, using monitoring function of KGLWIN.

The following example uses the above diagram to explain the operation of MASTER-K120S main unit.
The data of the master MASTER-K120S main unit is increased by INCP instruction and sent to be written on the output
contact point P004 of the slave MASTER-K120S main unit. And in return, the master MASTER-K120S main unit reads
the data that is written on the output contact point of the slave MASTER-K120S to write them on the output contact
point of extended digital input/output module, G7E-DR10A.

8.2 User Defined Protocol Communication

8.2.1 Introduction
User Defined Protocol Communication allows users who do communication between MASTER-K120S main unit and other kind
of device to define the other companys protocol at MASTER-K PLC. Therere a number of kinds of protocols made by many
companies, that its difficult to have all protocols in it. So if a user defines a protocol that can be applied to his/her purpose,
MASTER-K120S main unit executes the communication with the other kind of device through the defined protocol.
For this, protocol frame must be defined in KGLWIN (Version 2.0 or higher). And exact knowledge about the contents of the
protocol defined by the user is vital in making the communication possible. KGLWIN can download a user defined protocol
frame into MASTER-K120S main unit and it is saved. it is not erased by powers off/on. For using user-defined mode, he/she
should program with instruction controlling sending of PLC as well as edit frames. This section explains User Defined Protocol
Communication setting & usage.

Example 4) [A][NUL][ENQ][STX] : impossible
Send / Receive
- Not defined : It is the initial value that doesnt declare a frame format.
- Send : It is that declares send frame.
- Receive : It is that declares receive frame.
- When Frame 0 window is activated, Tx/Rx term is set as Not defined, and all the segments are not in
activation.
Segment (1-8): Enter segment by segment to separate fixed sending data area (CONSTANT) and device
area (Array).
Item
Contents
To set a segment type, therere NONE (not defined), CONST (fixed data
area), ARRAY (Device area). CONST declares commands and fixed data
that are used for communication frame and ARRAY is used to input and save
the data needed for interactive communication. ARRAY type must be always
set by byte.
This field is to declare commands and fixed data that will be used in communication
frame and constant data to be declared by inputting. ASCII input must be done
within 10 characters and hex within 20 characters. If the number exceeds the limit,
set the next segment as the same type and continue to input there. As an
dedicated protocol communication, 10RSB06%MW10006 is a frame to execute
reading 6 word data from M100 at the slave station no. 16.
Ex1) 10RSB06%MW10006
If the segment is declared as ARRAY type, designate transmitting device (P,M,L,K,

F,T,C,D) and number of transmitting. The unit is byte
Ex2) If you want to transmit D000 ~ D003, the setting is as below.
(transmitting device : D000 , number of transmitting : 6 bytes)

Data Type
ASCII adds 2 bytes BCC value in ASCII type to frame. Hex adds 1 byte BCC value in Hex type to
frame. For the detailed setting BCC, refer to 8.1.6 Execution of Commands.
Default
It is that sum all the data from 2nd data to the data before the data marked as [BCC] and input the
result to the [BCC] area
SUM 1
BCC method uses sum like defaults, but the user can set the BCC area.
SUM 2
BCC method is the same with SUM 1, but its used when the user masks any value to the last BCC
value.
XOR 1
BCC method is OR (Exclusive OR).
XOR 2
BCC method is the same with XOR 1, but its used when the user masks any value to the last BCC
value.
MUL 1
BCC method is MULTIPLY that is, multiplication.
MUL 2
BCC method is the same with MUL 1, but its used when the user masks any value to the last BCC
value.
H signifies header, S is for segment, and T is for tail.
Range
Ex1) When header is set as [ENQ][STX], tail is set as [EOT][ETX], and the range of setting
BCC is to be from [STX] to [ETX], then set as H [1]~T [1].
It is to set whether not to take complement number or to take the complement number of 1 or 2 at
Complement
[BCC] value. If mask setting is done after taking a complement number, the user can set any value to
do masking.
Sets any value and method of masking.
Mask
Ex1) When masking by XOR method, using a value, HFF : ^FF

Ex2) When masking by OR method, using a value, HFF : |FF
When masking by AND method, using a value, HFF : &FF

Frame size
- ASCII communication : max. 128 bytes
- Hex communication : max. 256 bytes
Link relay (L)
- Its a flag to indicate whether a user defined frame is received in the order set by the user.
- If the received frame is matched with the declared frame in frame list number 3, L003 starts blinking
(0 1 0).
When frame receiving is done, MASTER-K120S main unit check if theres any match between the received frame
and the declared frame in frame list. If there is, let the Link relay L(n) flag blink and save the received data in the
assigned area.

8.3 Modbus Protocol Communication

8.3.1 Introduction
MASTER-K120S built-in communication supports Modbus, the Modicon products communication protocol. It supports ASCII
mode, using ASCII data and RTU mode using Hex data. Function code used in Modbus is supported by instruction and
especially function code 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 15 and 16. Refer to "Modicon Modbus Protocol Reference Guide"
8.3.2 Basic Specification

1) ASCII mode
(1) It communicates, using ASCII data.
(2) Each frame uses ': (colon : H3A)', for header, CRLF (Carriage Return-Line Feed : H0D H0A), for tail.
(3) It allows Max. 1 second interval between characters.
(4) It checks errors, using LRC.
(5) Frame structure (ASCII data)

2) RTU mode
(1) It communicates, using hex data.
(2) There's no header and tail. It starts with address and finishes frame with CRC.
(3) It has at least 3.5 character times between two frames.
(4) It ignores the current frame when 1.5 character times elapse between characters.
(5) It checks errors, using 16 bit CRC.
(6) Frame structure (hex data).
Item

Size
1 byte
1 bytes
n bytes
2 bytes
REMARK
1) The size constituting 1 letter is 1 character. So 1 character is 8 bits that is 1 byte.
2) 1 character time means the time lapsed for sending 1 character.
Ex) Calculation of 1 character time at 1200 bps.
1200 bps means that it takes 1 second to send 1200 bits. To send 1 bit, 1 sec/1200 bits = 0.83 ms.
Therefore 1 character time is 0.83ms * 8 bits = 6.64ms.
3) 584, 984 A/B/X executes frame division, using intervals of more than 1 sec without LRC in processing internally.
8-57
3) Address area
(1) Setting range is available from 1 to 247, but MASTER-K120S supports from 0 to 31.
(2) Address 0 is used for broadcast address. Broadcast address is all slave device recognize and respond to like the selfaddress, which can't be supported by MASTER-K120S.
4) Function code area

(1) MASTER-K120S supports only 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 15, and 16 among Modicon products' function codes.
(2) If the response format is confirm+(ACK), it uses the same function code.
(3) If the response format is confirm-(NCK), it returns as it sets the 8th bit of function code as 1.
Ex) If function code is 03, (we write here only function code part. Because only function codes are different.)
[Request]
0000 0011 (H03)
[Confirm+]
0000 0011 (H03)
[Confirm-]
1000 0011 (H83)

It returns as it sets the 8th bit of
function code of request frame.
5) Data area
(1) It sends data, using ASCII data(ASCII mode) or hex (RTU mode).
(2) Data is changed according to each function code.
(3) Response frame uses data area as response data or error code.
6) LRC Check/CRC Check area

(1) LRC (Longitudinal Redundancy Check) : It works in ASCII mode. It takes 2 complement from sum of frame except
header or tail to change into ASCII code,
(2) CRC (Cyclical Redundancy Check): It works in RTU mode. It uses 2-byte CRC check rules.
REMARK
1) All numerical data can use hexadecimal, decimal, and binary type. If we convert decimal 7 and 10 into each type:
Hexadecimal : H07, H0A or 16#07, 16#0A
Decimal : 7, 10
Binary : 2#0111, 2#1010

8) Modbus addressing rules

MASTER-K120S main unit starts its address from 0 and matches with 1 of Modicon products' data address. So MASTERK120S's address n matches n+1 of Modicon products' address. This means that the output contact point 1 (0001) of
Modicon products is marked as communication address 0 and the input contact point 1 (0001) of Modicon products is
marked as communication address 0 in MASTER-K120S.
9) The size of using data

As for data size, MASTER-K120S main unit supports 128 bytes in ASCII mode and 256 bytes in RTU mode. The maximum
size of the Modicon products is different from each other kind. So refer to "Modicon Modbus Protocol Reference Guide."

8.4 No Protocol Communication

8.4.1 Introduction
No protocol communication is useful when communication between MASTER-K120S main unit and other kind of devices
with user defined protocol is impossible. User defined protocol is very convenient when there are enough interval between
frames or a kind of frame is less than 16. But, When the kind of frame is greater than 16 or frames are continued without
interval, user defined protocol is not available.
When the kinds of frame are more than 16, they cant be registered in parameter area, therefore MASTER-K120s cant
transfer these frames. Also, if there are no interval between frame, MASTER-K120S cant find end of frame.
To overcome these defects of user defined protocol, MASTER-K120S provide No Protocol Communication .
In the No Protocol Communication, frames are designated by commands, not by parameter setting. So Max. 128 frames can
be designated when using this communication mode. This section explains No protocol Communication setting & usage.
1) Sending Data
Command : DSND
Sends stored data in designated device at the rising edge of input condition.
Data and the number of character must be stored in designated device before they are sent.
Operands
(a) First operand Designates communication channel
(b) Second operand Number of data to sending (Unit of byte)
(c) Third operand Starting address of devices which stores sending data
(d) Fourth operand Device address which indicates communication status.
2) Receiving Data
Command : DRCV
Saves received data to pre-defined receiving devices when designated ending condition is occurs.
The ending condition can be designated by following two kinds.
- By number of character which is received.
- By designated last byte. It is useful when there is no interval between received frames.
Supports hexdecimal type.
Operands
(a) First operand Designates communication channel
(b) Second operand Designates receiving format
(c) Third operand Starting address of devices which stores receiving data
(d) Fourth operand Device which indicates end of receiving
8-67
Receiving format can be designated as below.

Upper byte(hex)
H00(Receiving by Length of frame)
Lower byte(hex)
H03 (Receives when length of frame data is 3)
H01(Receiving by last byte)
H03 (Receives when last frame data is 03(ETX))
- When designated as length of frame : Stores received data to devices when number of received byte is equal to designated
lower byte value of receiving format.(setting range : 1~255)
- When designated last byte : Stores received data to devices when receives designated ending byte.
8.4.2 Parameter setting

5) Power consumption of each part

(1) Power consumption of a power supply part
Approximately 65% of the power supply module current is converted into power 35% of that 65% dissipated as heat,
i.e., 3.5/6.5 of the output power is actually used.
Wpw = 3.5 / 6.5 {(I5V x 5) + (I24V x 24)} (W)
where, l5v: 5VDC circuit current consumption of each part
l24v: 24VDC circuit average current consumption of output part (with points simultaneously switched ON).
Not for 24VDC power supplied from external or power supply part that has no 24VDC output.
(2) Total 5VDC power consumption
The total power consumption of all modules is the power of the 5VDC output circuit of the power supply part.
W5V = I5V 5 (W)
(3) Average DC24V power consumption (with points simultaneously switched ON)
The total power consumption of all modules is the average power of the DC24V output circuit of the power supply part.
W24V = I24V 24 (W)
(4) Average power consumption by voltage drop of output part (with points simultaneously switched ON)
Wout = Iout Vdrop output points the rate of points switched on simultaneously (W)
Iout : output current (actual operating current) (A)
Vdrop : voltage dropped across each output load (V)
(5) Average power consumption of input parts (with points simultaneously ON)
Win = lin E input points the rate of points switched on simultaneously (W)
Iin : input current (effective value for AC) (A)
E : input voltage (actual operating voltage) (V)
9-2

(6) Power consumption of the special module
WS = I5V X 5 + I24V X 24 (W)
(7) The sum of the above values is the power consumption of the entire PLC system.
W = WPW + W5V + W24V + Wout + Win + Ws (W)
(8) Check the temperature rise within the control panel with calculation of that total power consumption(W).
The temperature rise in the control panel is expressed as:
T = W / UA [C]
W : Power consumption of the entire PLC system(obtained as shown above)
A : Control panel inside surface area [m2]
U : if the control panel temperature is controlled by a fan, etc
if control panel air is not circulated

(6) Do not bundle the 100 VAC and 24VDC cables with main-circuit (high voltage, large current) wires or the I/O signal wires.
If possible, provide more than 80 distance between the cables and wires.
9-7

(7) As a measure against very large surge(e.g. due to lightening),connect a surge absorber as shown below.
PLC
E1
E2
Surge absorber for lightening
(8) Use a insulating transformer or noise filter for protection against noise.
(9) Twist every input power supply wires as closely as possible. Do not allow the transformer or noise filter across the duct.
Remark
1) Ground the surge absorber(E1) and the PLC(E2) separately from each other.
2) Select a surge absorber making allowances for power voltage rises.
9.2.2 Input and Output Devices Wiring

(1) Applicable size of wire to the terminal block connector is 0.18 to 2 . However, it is recommended to use wire of 0.5 for
convenience.
(2) Separate the input and output lines.
(3) I/O signal wires must be at least 100 (3.94 in) away from high voltage and large current circuit wires.
(4) When the I/O signal wires cannot be separated from the main circuit wires and power wires, ground on the PLC side with batchshielded cables. Under some conditions it may be preferable to ground on the other side.
PLC
Shielded cable
Input
RA
DC
(5) If wiring has been done with of piping, ground the piping.
(6) Separate the 24VDC I/O cables from the 110VAC and 220VAC cables.
(7) If wiring over 200m or longer distance, trouble can be caused by leakage currents due to line capacity.
Refer to the section 11.4 Troubleshooting Examples.
9-8

9.2.3 Grounding
(1) This PLC has sufficient protection against noise, so it can be used without grounding except for special much noise. However,
when grounding it should be done conforming to below items.
(2) Ground the PLC as independently as possible. Class 3 grounding should be used (grounding resistance 80or less).
(3) When independent grounding is impossible, use the joint grounding method as shown in the figure below (B).
PLC
Other device
PLC
Other device
Class 3 grounding
PLC

Class 3 grounding
(A)Independent grounding : Best
(B) Joint grounding : Good
(C) Joint grounding : Not allowed
(4) Use 2 (14AWG) or thicker grounding wire. Grounding point should be as near as possible to the PLC to minimize the
distance of grounding cable.

Chapter 11 Troubleshooting
The following explains contents, diagnosis and corrective actions for various errors that can occur during system operation.
11.1 Basic Procedures of Troubleshooting

System reliability not only depends on reliable equipment but also on short downtimes in the event of faults.
The short discovery and corrective action is needed for speedy operation of system.
The following shows the basic instructions for troubleshooting.
1) Visual checks
Check the following points.
Machine operating condition (in stop and operating status)
Power On/Off
- Status of I/O devices
- Condition of wiring (I/O wires, extension and communications cables)
- Display states of various indicators (such as POWER LED, RUN LED, ERR. LED and I/O LED).
After checking them, connect peripheral devices and check the operation status of the PLC and the
program contents.
2) Trouble Check
Observe any change in the error conditions during the following.
Switch to the STOP position, and then turn the power on and off.
3) Narrow down the possible causes of the trouble where the fault lies, i.e.:
Inside or outside of the PLC?
I/O module or another module?
PLC program?
