Chapter 1: Introduction 3

Self Diagnostics
When placed in the Run mode, the D50 PLC performs startup self-diagnostics and error-checking on
the processor, control program, and I/O system. Error status information is stored internally, providing
for quick and easy troubleshooting of system and programming errors.

Large Program Memory


Sufficient program capacity is furnished for even the most demanding applications. Internal program
memory handles up to 2048 separate control steps.

Integrated 700mA Power Supply


The AC-powered D50 PLC controller provides up to 700mA of 24VDC output power. This can
eliminate the need for an additional power supply for standard 24VDC control power requirements.

Battery-Free Program Backup

System Installation Considerations

Environmental Considerations
The D50 PLC system should never be installed under the following environmental conditions:

1. Ambient temperature outside the range of 0 to 55°C (32 to 131°F).


2. Direct sunlight.
3. Humidity outside the range of 20% to 90%.

4. Altitudes greater than 10,000 ft. (3,000 m).


5. Corrosive or dusty air.
6. High voltage, high magnetics, or high electromagnetic waves.
7. Locations subject to direct impact greater than 10G or vibrations greater than 1G @ 57-2000
Hz.

Preventing PLC System Malfunctions


1. Use an isolation transformer and line filter on the incoming power to the PLC when in the
vicinity of equipment using or producing high current, high voltage, or large magnetic fields.
2. Separate the main PLC power line ground from all other power grounds. Always use triple-
grounding.
3. Do not exceed the current and power rating of the external 24 VDC provided by the D50
power supply.
4. Avoid system faults due to programming errors by reading and fully understanding this
system manual and the PLC instruction set.
5. Perform regular preventive maintenance on installed systems, checking devices and wiring for
potential breakdowns and failures.

an RS232/485 converter must be used. When placed on an RS485 network with other D50, D300, or
D320 PLC’s, the ends of the network should be properly terminated with 120 Ohm resistors to prevent
communication errors due to noise and reflections on the transmission line.

System Design Considerations

Power Supply Wiring

Physical and Electrical Isolation of Power Supplies


When wiring the PLC, external control I/O, and large power equipment such as motors, each system
should be electrically separated as shown:

Main power Power


source Device

External
I/O device

PLC

Isolation transformer

Interlock Circuit and Emergency Stop Circuit (Safety measures in


system design)
In any PLC application, abnormal and potentially dangerous operation can occur. These system
malfunctions may result from power surges, brownouts, blackouts, shorted or opened I/O devices, or
any type of system component failure. Any errors of the PLC, the external power source, and/or
external devices can cause a system malfunction. The potentially dangerous effects of these errors on
the whole system can be prevented with proper safety precautions. The use of properly designed safety
circuits external to the PLC will protect against both equipment damage and human injury.

Interlock Circuit
An interlock circuit can control and prevent problems such as those caused by unexpected or reversed
operation of a motor. Install the interlock circuit external to the PLC control wiring and circuitry.

Emergency Stop Circuit


Every industrial control application involving electrical or moving parts should be wired with an
emergency stop circuit. The emergency stop circuit turns off the power immediately to all output
devices in the system. The emergency stop circuit should provide independent power cutoff from the
PLC system.

Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com
Chapter 4: Installation and Wiring 23

Power-Up Sequence
In a properly designed control system, the default Off state of the system is the safe state, in which no
machinery is operating. Before the PLC is powered-up, line power and control power are applied to the
system. Once the system is powered up in the safe/default state, the PLC is powered up and begins
system control. As necessary, the control system should be modified to ensure the proper delayed
startup to prevent problems on power-up.

For example: 1) Run the PLC after turning on the power


2) Use an external or internal timer to delay the operation of the PLC.

Momentary Power Failure and Voltage Drop

Momentary Power Failure


The D50 PLC will ride through momentary power failures of 10 msec or less. The PLC will stop and
turn off its outputs if a momentary power failure greater than 20 msec occurs. For momentary power
failures between 10 msec and 20 msec, the PLC's operation depends on circumstances at that time, and
is not defined. The control system should be designed specifically to ensure safe operation for these
potential power-loss conditions.

Voltage Drop (Brownouts)


The PLC will stop and turn off its outputs if the PLC 's power supply voltage drops below the
allowable fluctuating voltage range (see specifications for power supply units).

CAUTION: Steps should be taken to prevent damage to the PLC system through fluctuating
voltages, brownouts, blackouts, shorts, ground faults, or other power supply
failures. For example, you may need to apply an isolation transformer before the
incoming PLC power supply and/or I/O control wiring.

System Installation Guidelines

Environmental Usage Conditions

Avoid the Following Environments:


• Ambient temperature outside the range of 0 to 55°C (32 to 131°F).
• Humidity levels outside the range of 20% to 90%.
• Abrupt temperature variations which lead to the formation of dew.
• Presence of corrosive or flammable gases.
• Presence of dense dust, salt, and iron concentrations.
• Presence of corrosive solutions such as benzene, thinner, alcohol, ammonia and caustic soda.

Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com
24 D50 PLC User's Manual

• Locations subject to direct impact greater than 10 G or vibrations greater than 1 G @


57-2000 Hz.
• Direct sunlight.
• Presence of water, oil, and other chemicals.

Electrical Noise Considerations


• Do not install near high-tension wires, high-voltage devices, power cables, power devices,
and other devices which generate large power surges or electromagnetic fields when starting
and stopping.
• Do not place near wireless communications devices with transceivers, such as walkie talkies,
cellular phones, or shortwave radios.

Control Panel Installation

• Leave enough space at the top of unit from other devices or wiring ducts to allow ventilation
space and easy replacement and wiring of the unit (see the following diagrams).
• Do not mount the PLC system rotated vertically, or facing up or down. This will prevent
proper air cooling of the PLC CPU, which will cause abnormal overheating inside the PLC
(see the following diagrams).

Power Supply Wiring

Power wiring

• When connecting the power cable:


To reduce power loss in the wiring, use at least 14 AWG (2 mm) cable.
To reduce the effect of noise, use twisted, shielded cable.
• An isolation transformer can be used to further reduce noise and to prevent failures from
power problems such as ground faults.

Grounding

• In normal low-noise environments such as closed-room control cabinets, it is possible to


operate the PLC without frame grounding. However, it is necessary to ground the PLC for
noisy environments, and is recommended for all installations regardless of electronic noise
levels.
• For the frame ground, use a cable of at least 14 AWG (2 mm) in size. The ground should be
exclusive to the PLC. Sharing the ground connection with other devices can cause problems
due to ground loops and current feedback.

Terminology
This section introduces some terminology you should know.

1. Address (register)
Address refers to the location of memory being used. It can refer to the external input/output
module or internal memory. An address is categorized into 1 bit, 16 bit (word), or 32 bit
(double word).
2. Bit
A bit is the minimum unit required for calculation. It can be either On (1) or Off (0).
3. Byte
A byte is made up of 8 bits. It can hold data values from 0 to 255. In base 16, or hexadecimal,
a byte can be expressed as 0 to FF. You cannot have a value greater than 255 when using one
byte.
4. Word
A word is made of 16 bits. It can hold data values from 0 to 65,535. In base 16 a word can be
expressed as 0 to FFFF.
5. Double Word
A double word is made of 32 bits. It can hold data values from 0 to 4,294,976,295. In base 16
a double word can be expressed as 0 to FFFFFFFF. In the D50, a double word is made up of
two consecutive word addresses.
6. Scan Time
The CPU follows a procedure in which it 1) reads the inputs, 2) processes the ladder program,
and 3) updates the outputs. It continually repeats this process. This 3-step process is called a
“scan,” and the time it takes to complete this process is the “scan time.” In a typical PLC
application, most of the scan time is used to process the program. When programming, keep
in mind that the scan time will increase as you increase the number of inputs and outputs
and/or the size of the program.
7. Edge
An edge is defined as the point when an input changes state. For example, a rising edge
occurs during the very first scan after the input has changed from Off to On. A falling edge
occurs after the input has changed from On to Off.
8. Hex (Hexadecimal)
A hexadecimal number is a value expressed in Base 16. Base 16 values consist of digits from
0 to F. In a byte, word, or double word, each set of 4 bits corresponds to a single hex digit.
For example, the binary value 01001111 would correspond to the hex value 4F, and a decimal
value of 79. A hex value is designated by the use of the symbol “$” in front of the value (i.e.
$4F is the hex value 4F).
8. BCD (Binary Coded Decimal)
BCD is used to express a decimal digit (0 to 9) using 4 bits. Conversion of BCD values can be
done in hexadecimal calculations. For example, the BCD representation of decimal 27 would
be two sets of 4 bits: 0010 0111.
9. EEPROM
EEPROM is electronically erasable and programmable memory that retains its data even
through loss of power. The PLC program is stored in EEPROM and will be retained when
power is off.

Chapter 5: CPU Operation and Memory 31

10. GPC
Graphic Programming Console. Cutler-Hammer offers two program loader software packages
for programming, monitoring, and configuring the D50 PLC. The DOS-based package is
GPC5, the Windows-based package is WinGPC. In this manual, GPC is used to refer to
either of these programs.

Overview of CPU Operation Mode

What Is the CPU Operation Mode?


The CPU has an external RUN/STOP switch. The PLC performs a system check that determines the
position of the switch. The switch position determines which operating mode the PLC is in. It can be in
Run, Stop, or Error mode.

Run Mode (operating)


The D50 PLC reads the external input signals and executes the user program stored in RAM. The
external outputs are updated every scan according to program results. When the switch is in Run
Mode, the user can also use the GPC program loader software to switch between the RUN and STOP
states.

Stop Mode
The user program is stopped and the external outputs are turned Off. In the Stop mode, you can
correct, delete, and transfer the program.

Error Mode
The Error mode occurs when the D50 PLC finds an error after running the self-diagnostics. When an
error occurs, the CPU stops program operation and turns off all external outputs. When the Error mode
occurs, do one of the following:

• Check the error code and take appropriate measures, then change power from Off to On.
• Switch the mode switch back to the STOP position. When the switch is returned to RUN the
program and data are re-initialized (excluding the retentive data).

5. Peripheral device
signal processing

The diagram above indicates the PLC program processing procedure. The CPU regularly repeats
procedure 1 through 5. This cycle is called 1 scan time.

1. Mandatory input/output processing


The internal force table is applied to internal/external I/O, turning forced I/O On or Off.
2. Input/output processing
Preserves the On/Off state of the external I/O and uses it as input in the next scan. (For
accurate processing, input should continue for more than 1 scan time.) The processed program
outputs are sent from the internal memory to the external modules.
3. Watchdog time initialization
The watchdog elapsed time value is set to 0. This value is the watchdog calculation point until
the next scan.
4. Program analysis
Executes the program from its first step to its final step and stores the internal/external output
in the working RAM.
5. Peripheral device signal processing
Stores data from communications module or peripheral device in the internal memory.

The following illustration shows the difference between the relay board and PLC sequence processing.
The relay carries out all sequences simultaneously while the PLC processes sequentially throughout
the program.

Chapter 5: CPU Operation and Memory 33

Introduction to Registers
The D50 PLC has a series of registers for storing data. Different registers store different types of data.

1. R (Relay) register (Can be bit, byte, or word)


Indicates the internal memory address which is directly linked with the real-world external
input/output module. The address and number of R registers are predefined for the controller
and expansion module I/O.
2. M (Memory) register (Can be bit, byte, or word)
An internal bit memory address which supports relay logic operations. Can also be used as a
byte or word variable for general calculations and programs. M Registers are non-retentive—
when the power of the PLC is Off or the CPU has stopped, the register value is reset to 0.
3. W (Word) register (Can be byte or word)
Used for general calculations, data storage, and recipe values. Values are cleared after the
power is turned off, or by new program download.
4. K (Keep) register (Can be bit, byte, or word)
Same usage as M registers. The K Registers are retentive—the value is preserved when the
power is turned off.
5. F (Flag) register (Can only be bit)
These bit registers provide special application specific functions to the programmer of the
PLC. They are also used as diagnostic and system control bits, providing Run/Stop control of
the PLC and other system conditions.
Each type of register is used for a variety of purposes. The register used will be determined by the type
of function being performed.

1. When a calculation or input value exceeds 255 ($FF), use double mode instructions which can
store and calculate values up to 65,535 in the K, M, R, and W registers..
2. When a value needs to be stored even through a loss of system power, use the K area. The K
area is preserved unless specifically erased. The W area is erased by program downloads or
loss of power.
3. For bit operations, such as setting, resetting, shifting, or rotating use the M, K, or R registers.
You cannot perform bit operations on W registers.
4. The Set Value of timers and counters is stored in a special area of the W registers, W2048 to
W2303. These values can also be addressed using register type SV. The Set Values are then
referenced as SV000 to SV255.
5. The Present Value of timers and counters is stored above the Set Values in the W registers,
from W2304 to W2559. These values can also be addressed using the PV designation, PV000
to PV255. The Present Values for channels 0 to 16 are maintained in the Stop state. It is also
retentive—the value is maintained through loss of power.

Internal/External Address Designation


• The memory address designation types are R, L, M, K, F, W, SV, PV, SR, and TC.
 Types F and TC can only be used to designate bits.
 Types W, SV, PV, and SR can only be used to designate words.

Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com
34 D50 PLC User's Manual

 Types R, L, M, and K can be used for either bits or words.

• A bit address is composed of a character (R, L, M, K, F), a three digit word address (000 to
127), a decimal point, and a bit address (0 to 15). The timer/counter contact is represented by
the TC label followed by three digits. The three digits indicate the channel number of the
timer/counter (TC000 to TC255).
• A word address is composed of a character (R, L, M, K, W) and a four digit number (i.e.
W0000 to W0255). Special areas of word memory have alternate designations. For example,
words W2560 to W2815 are also referred to as the System Registers, and can be represented
as SR0000 to SR0511.
• The bit address indicates an On (1) or Off (0) state. The byte address is composed of 8 bits
that holds data values of 0 to 255. The word address is composed of 16 bits that holds data
values of 0 to 65,535.

Expression Example

M 012 . 12
Bit number
• 2 digits, range is 0 to 15.

Word number
• When used with bit number, 3 digits (000 to 127) are used.
• When used for word number only, express in 4 digits (0000 to 3071).

Register Type
• R, L, M, K, F, or W indicates address type.
• The W memory contains the data area (W0000 to W0255), the timer Set Value
area (W2048 to W2303 = SV000 to SV255), the timer Present Value area (W2304
to W2559 = PV000 to PV255), and the System Register area (W2560 to W2815 =
SR000 to SR255).

Note: The basic contact and coil instructions require a bit designation and use the 3.2 bit address
format. Comparison and application instructions most often use word parameters, and are
expressed using the 4 digit word address.

36 D50 PLC User's Manual

Double Mode Address Designation


• Words are composed of two bytes put together. The designation for a word is exactly the
same as the designation for the byte, consisting of a one character register type and a 4 digit
word address. Bytes hold 8 bits of data, words hold 16 bits of data.
• The type of instruction used determines whether the register is processed as a single byte or a
word. For comparison instructions (>, <, ==, etc.), the programmer must be in “Double
Mode” to enter a word comparison (refer to program loader manual for details). For
application instructions, those instructions that start with a D in front of the related instruction
are word instructions, and process the data as 16-bit words instead of bytes.

Example 1:

LET W0 is processed as 8 bit (1 byte) data (0 to


Byte
D=W0 255).
S=250 S is processed as a value from 0 to 255.

Word DLET Word W0 is processed as 16 bit (1 word) data


D=W0 (0 to 65,535).
S=2500 S can be a value from 0 to 65,535.

Example 2: Comparison Instruction

W0005 The example shows comparison instructions being used in the single mode
=<M0003 of GPC. The parameters W0005 and M0003 represent only 8 bits of data.
The high 8 bits are NOT used as part of the comparison.

D W0005 In this example, GPC is in double mode and comparison instructions are
used. The comparison is performed on 16 bits of data. All of word W0005
=<M0003
and M0003 will be compared.

Digital I/O Address Designation

• The CPU assigns addresses to the digital inputs in sequential order, starting at address R0.
Each module uses 8 bits of the address for the 8 inputs.
• The CPU assigns addresses to the digital outputs in sequential order, starting at address R15.
Each modules uses 6 bits of the address for the 6 outputs.
• A maximum of 3 digital modules, of any mix of voltage I/O type, may be added.

Analog I/O Address Designation

• The first analog input module uses data words W240 to W243 for its four analog input
channels. Each word contains the 12-bit representation of the analog input signal for the
channel. The second analog input module is assigned words W244 to W247. These
assignments are independent of the position of the module in the chain, or whether an analog
output module is present.
• The first analog output module uses data words W248 and W249 for its two analog output
channels. The 12-bit representation to be output as an analog signal on the channel must be
placed in these words. The second analog input module is assigned words W250 and W251.
These assignments are independent of the position of the module in the chain, or whether an
analog input module is present.
• A maximum of two analog modules, input and/or output, may be added.

(OUT) OUT: Relay coil turns On or Off based on the state of the input conditions.
(SET) SET: Relay coil turns On when the input conditions are true.
(RST) RST: Relay coil turns Off when the input conditions are true.

Description
For an OUT instruction, you cannot use the same address twice.
OUT, SET, and RST instructions must be connected to the right bus and not in the middle of the
circuit.
1. OUT—Use for external I/O (R), internal (M), and retentive (K) contacts. On or Off according
to status of the input condition.
2. SET—Use for external I/O (R), internal (M), and retentive (K) contacts. The same address
can be used more than once. When the input conditions are true, the coil is turned On and
stays on unless turned off by a RST. The output is turned Off in the Stop mode.
3. RST—Use for external I/O (R), internal (M), and retentive (K) contacts. The same address
can be used more than once. When the input conditions are true, the coil is turned Off and
stays off unless turned on by a SET. The output is Off in the Stop mode.
4. When using retentive coils (K) in OUT, SET, or RST, the state is maintained. It will remain
On or Off even after placed in the Stop mode and power is turned off.

Description
1. For the ABS (absolute value) instruction, if the highest bit (MSB) is 1, take the 2’s
complement. If the highest bit is 0, leave it as it is.
 For example, the absolute value of $9A52 (=1001 1010 0101 0010) is $65AE (=0110

2. The NEG (2’s complement) instruction is expressed as the 1’s complement + 1.
 For example, DNEG of $7A52 (=0111 1010 0101 0010) is $85AE (=1000 0101 1010
1110)
3. The NOT (1’s complement) instruction is performed by reversing each bit.
 For example, DNOT of $7A52 (=0111 1010 0101 0010) is $85AD (=1000 0101 1010

Description
1. This instruction is useful in transferring data patterns stored sequentially in memory, to a
single output register location. For example, if the register addresses W100 through W199
contained a set of 100 control patterns (P0 to P99) that needed to be transferred to theoutputs
of a module (address R015), the LDR instruction can be used to load the data from the
absolute addresses of W100 to W199 (absolute addresses 612 to 711) into the destination
register R015.
2. In the example below, register W0 is used as the Sr (source) register, which contains the
absolute address of the data patterns to be loaded. Initially, W0 contains 612, which is the
absolute memory address of register W100. As W0 is incremented, it successively points to
the next higher W register to load data from.

Description
1. This instruction is useful in storing data patterns from a single input register to a sequential
table of registers in memory. For example, if the process measurements (D0 to D99) from an
input module located at address R001 needed to be stored in register addresses W100 through
W199. The STO instruction can be used to load the data from the source register R001 to the
absolute addresses of W100 to W199 (absolute addresses 612 to 711).
2. In the example below, register W0 is used as the D (destination) register, which contains the
absolute address of the locations to store the process measurements. Initially, W0 contains
612, which is the absolute memory address of register W100. As W0 is incremented, it
successively points to the next higher W register to store data.

corresponding NEXT. Repeat execution D times.
………

NEXT: Decrease D of FOR instruction by 1. If not zero, repeat from FOR
NEXT instruction.

Description
1. The FOR/NEXT instructions are used to perform a block of instructions inside a ladder
program repeatedly. The parameter D of the FOR instruction is a value indicating how many
times the block of instructions is to be performed.
2. Branch instructions such as JMP and CALL can be made inside the FOR/NEXT loop.
3. The number of loops to execute (D value) can be changed inside of the FOR/NEXT loop. This
can be used to dynamically increase or decrease the number of loops performed while
processing the loops.
4. If the D register is 0 before the FOR instruction, the instructions between the FOR and NEXT
instructions will NOT be executed. Instead, the program will jump directly to the instruction
following the NEXT.
5. As the FOR/NEXT loop occurs within a single program scan, a large value of D will lengthen
the scan time of the program considerably.
6. This operation will occur on every scan for which the input condition is true (On). To perform
the operation only on a change of input condition, use the rising/falling edge contact.

When the R0.0 contact changes from OffOn, execution
of the FOR/NEXT loop occurs. At the FOR instruction,
the value of W0 is evaluated. If W0 is not 0, then the
instructions between the FOR and NEXT (INC D = M0)
is performed. At the NEXT instruction, 1 is subtracted
from the value of W0, and execution returns to the FOR
instruction. This is repeated 10 times, until the value of
W0 is 0. When this occurs, execution goes directly the
instruction following the NEXT instruction.

Description
1. This instruction is used to conditionally perform a set of instructions in the program. When
the input condition to the JMP instruction is true, execution will jump over the following
instructions, directly to the corresponding LBL label. When the input condition is false, the
instructions following the JMP will be executed normally, and no jump occurs.
2. The range of L is 0 to 31, allowing 32 jumps to be used.
3. The given L label may only be used once in a program. It may not be duplicated.
4. For a given JMP with parameter L, there MUST be a corresponding LBL with the same L
value. Also, the LBL instruction must come after the JMP instruction in the program. If either
of these two conditions is not satisfied, an error will occur preventing execution of the
program.
5. This operation will occur on every scan for which the input condition is true (On). To perform
the operation only on a change of input condition, use the rising/falling edge contact.

instructions following the JMPS will be executed normally, and no jump occurs.
3. For the JMPS instruction, there MUST be a corresponding JMPE. Also, the JMPE instruction
must come after the JMPS instruction in the program. If either of these two conditions is not
satisfied, an error will occur preventing execution of the program.
4. The JMPS/JMPE instructions may NOT be nested—after each JMPS instruction, there must
be a JMPE instruction before the next JMPS instruction may be programmed.
5. This operation will occur on every scan for which the input condition is true (On). To perform

3. The subroutine defined by the SBR and RET instructions must come after the associated
CALL instruction. All subroutines must be defined and programmed at the end of the control
program. A total of 64 subroutines are available (Sb = 0 to 31).
4. The same subroutine (SBR Sb) can be called by multiple CALL instructions. However, each
subroutine number may only be used once by an SBR instruction.

Mnemonic Clear Watchdog Time Range


WAT WAT: Clear watchdog time  Bit
 Byte
 Word

Ladder

R
WAT WAT: Clears the watchdog timer while executing the program.

Description
1. This instruction clears the watchdog timer within the CPU module to prevent the program
from stopping even if the scan time exceeds the maximum watchdog time. The default
watchdog time is 3 seconds.
2. Under normal operation, the PLC executes the following process:
 Read external inputs.
 Process the control program.
 Update the external outputs.
One execution of this process is termed a scan. When the time it takes to process a single scan
(the scan time) is excessively long, abnormal results may occur caused by the delay in reading
inputs and updating outputs. For this reason, a watchdog time is set by the PLC which, when
exceeded, indicates that an error has occurred. When this happens, the PLC stops the program
to prevent abnormal operation.
3. Under certain circumstances, extremely lengthy scan times may be allowable. The WAT
instruction allows the user to reset the watchdog timer to prevent the PLC from automatically
going into the error condition and stop mode when the watchdog time is exceeded.
4. This operation will occur on every scan for which the input condition is true (On). To perform
the operation only on a change of input condition, use the rising/falling edge contact.

Example

Program Expression Operation Results


M0.0 WAT In certain applications, the user program may contain

Noise Occurrence

Types of Noise

• Radiation noise is transmitted in the form of a magnetic wave. The amplitude of the magnetic
wave is measured in Gauss.
• Conduction noise is transmitted through a direct path such as signal wiring or ground
connections as a strong, high-voltage surge. This type of noise is measured as voltage,
current, or power.
• Normal mode (single ended developed) noise can come through the power and/or the signal
cables. This type of noise is not equally distributed across the PLC input terminals.
• Common mode noise can come through the power and/or the signal cables. In this case the
noise is close to the same amplitude thus the term common on both leads of the cable.
• Impulse noise is electrical or magnetic energy that has less than a 200 msec pulse duration.
• Surge noise is electrical energy that has a pulse duration of 200 msec to 2 sec.
• Transient noise is electrical energy that has an extremely short duration usually lasting only a
few nanoseconds (1 x 10-9).

Electrical Noise Fundamental Definitions

• Isolation means to physically separate the connection between areas. Isolation is effective for
common mode noise.
• Filters are effective against conduction noise such as impulses. Filtering is used to remove
normal mode noise and common mode noise that has been imprinted onto the signal or power
cables. A low-pass filter passes only low frequency signals. Low-pass filters are classified as
either LC (L = inductor and C = capacitor) filters or RC (R = resistor and C = capacitor)
filters, according to the electrical parts that form the filter.
• Surge absorbers are devices that protect electronic equipment by clamping down extremely
high voltage spikes (lightning strikes) in power cables to a safe level.
• Charge is an excess or deficiency of electrons in an object. When an object becomes charged,
a magnetic field forms around the object and can radiate noise as the amplitude of the charge
is varied.
• An inductive load is a device which creates a large magnetic field that opposes any change in
the voltage applied across the device. Devices that act as inductive loads are relay coils, motor
coils, starter coils and actuator coils.
• Stray capacitance and inductance is created during the installation of an electrical system.
When excess cabling is left wound up this creates stray inductance in the form of a coil. All
cabling inherently has a capacitive rating (so many picofarads per meter). Excessively long
cable runs or untrimmed cable lengths or poorly specified cable types can add large levels of
stray capacitance.

Chapter 8: Troubleshooting Noise Problems 145

Sources of Noise
There are three main sources of noise. Some of these sources generate large noise amplitudes. The
occurrence time can be very short (impulse type) or continuous (power line induced). Some noise
levels can damage the D50 PLC components and peripheral devices.

1. Noise Generated by Electronic Equipment


All electronic devices radiate noise in the form of a magnetic field. The magnetic field is
created around the printed circuit board or the wiring of electronic devices due to the flow of
electrical current. The amplitude of the magnetic field changes over time due to changes in
the flow of the electrical current. The magnetic field strength increases as the amount of the
electrical current flow increases.

As a device crosses the magnetic field, electrical currents will be induced. The induced
current could be summed vectorially with the normal electrical currents. In some cases this
could cause cancellation of electrical current flow (essentially shutting down the circuit). In
other cases this could create large surge currents that cause severe damage to the circuit. In
most cases the summation of the currents cause errors in readout and control values. Some
sources of this kind of noise are relays, magnetic contactors, inverters, computer monitors,
and motors.
2. Noise from Power Cables
When various loads are connected to a single power source the current draw conditions and
impedance imbalance can cause unwanted noise. The noise created by these sources can
affect other devices connected to the power source, via spikes, sags, reflected high speed
switching noise, and ground pulse. This is the most frequent cause of noise in a PLC’s
environment.
3. Noise from Natural Causes and Work Practices
Lightning, welding, shared cable trays, “grandfather’d plant wiring,” and static electricity can
also be sources of noise.

In the first case, the noise is caused within the equipment and is called internal noise. In the second
case, the noise is caused by external factors and referred to as external noise. These two types of noise
may also be referred to as artificial system noise.

The noise caused by natural occurrences can not be prevented, but can be controlled. Precautions such
as good grounding techniques, surge suppressors, and burying cables underground can help minimize
the affect. This type of noise may be referred to as natural noise.

Advised Installation Practices

Shield the PLC


The most common method of shielding, is to install the PLC inside a grounded steel enclosure.

Proper Cable Selection


Use twisted, shielded-pair cable for the power cable and field wiring. Properly terminate the shields of
all cables to a single-point high-quality ground. (See section on shielding.)

Ground the PLC


The purpose of grounding the PLC is to protect the electronic equipment from electric shock and
harmful noise.

To ground the PLC, connect a 12 to 16 gauge wire from the frame ground terminal strip screw of the
controller to a high quality earth ground (less then 2 Ω). Since electrical currents always take the path
of least resistance, the noise currents induced by a magnetic field will flow through the PLC frame
ground terminal screw to earth ground. This essentially draws the noise away from the PLC modules.

The most effective method of grounding the PLC frame is to ground the PLC independent of other
equipment. Avoid grounding the PLC through a daisy chain of wire connections with other equipment.
See figures below for good and bad examples:

PLC Others PLC Others PLC Others

The length of the ground cable should not exceed 65 feet (20 m). For best results, the resistance of the
ground cable should be less than 2 Ω.

Chapter 8: Troubleshooting Noise Problems 147

Isolation and Filtering Techniques

Isolation
There are several methods of isolation:

• Attach an isolation transformer between the PLC power supply and the VAC source to help
remove noise that flows in the power cable. Try to attach the isolation transformer as near to
the PLC power supply input terminal strip as possible.
• Some isolation transformers come with a shield that can be grounded. This shield, when
properly grounded, enhances the transformers ability to remove unwanted spikes.
• Be certain to size the isolation transformer to handle the necessary power rating required by
the system. A good practical rule in specifying an isolation transformer is to multiply the
required load capability by 1.35 (35% additional deliverable power). This allows expansion of
the PLC system at a later date without the immediate need to upgrade the isolation
transformer.

• When heavy noise is expected, also use an isolation transformer on the AC control power to
the I/O modules and devices. A cost-effective way of specifying the isolation transformer for
this requirement would be to specify a transformer with multiple primary and secondary
windings and wiring the PLC as shown below. Again, be certain to size the isolation
transformer to handle the necessary power required plus a 35% surplus and additional
windings to allow for future expansion of the system.

Filters
Filters should be used to suppress high frequency noise.

When using a low-pass filter specify one that is designed for power line applications. Many different
types are available from simple modules to complex units.

A single device is not necessarily the most cost-effective device for all applications. In specifying the
proper filter one must take into account the amplitude/power level of the noise and how often the noise
is present.

When the proper device is selected it is best to place the device as close to the PLC power supply
connections as possible. Below is an example of how to install a filter. The chart lists a typical
midrange power line filter for reference.

Methods of Handling Large Voltage Spikes Such as Lightning

Surge Absorber

• A surge absorber reduces the electrical shock to the PLC by taking high-voltage spikes to
ground. Attach a surge absorber in the power line in front of the PLC to prevent damage from
lightning. The surge absorber will clamp the unwanted high voltage and prevent it from
flowing to the PLC power supply. When specifying a surge absorber, the present wiring
system must be carefully reviewed. Some surge absorbers are designed to be placed into the
main power distribution panel while others are designed to be installed in the field close to the
PLC. It is always best to place the surge absorber as close to the PLC as possible.
• Surge absorbers can consist of either series resistors with capacitors that will couple the spike
to ground, or Zener diodes that safely clamp the high voltage spikes or MOVs (Metal Oxide
Varistors). Some surge absorbers will need replacement after they have suppressed a spike
(similar to a fuse). Others can be reset. In specifying a surge absorber consider how often the
surges are occurring and the maximum amplitude in volts or joules.

Burying Wire

• Cabling that is strung from pole to pole in free space is an antenna for lightning. When
possible bury the cable underground. The earth acts like a shield and absorbs most if not all of
the lightning induced noise signals before they are able to reach the cable.

Shielding Cabling
• When the wiring for the I/O module is more than 165 ft (50 m), shield the wire by installing it
in ferrous (steel) conduit and use shielded wire. Attach the conduit/shield to the ground at the
PLC ground terminal as shown below.

• Separate the input and output module wiring, and power circuit cables. Make sure to properly
ground the shields of each cable directly to ground. Do not create a daisy chain of ground
jumpers over several feet and then pigtail one end lead to ground. This method allows
multiple ground current paths to exist and can induce noise.

When a long cable run is needed to attach the AC input module to an external input device attach a
surge suppressor parallel to the input module. When possible, convert the application so a DC input
module can be used instead of the AC input module. The input circuitry of DC input modules
inherently have filters that suppress noise and therefore are less affected by the noise from inductive
loads and stray wiring capacitance.

Protecting Against Arcing


When a relay output module switches an inductive load, a surge voltage measured in thousands of
volts is generated across the relay contacts. This causes arcing (an electrical discharge between two
contact points that can vaporize the contact material) and shortens the contact life of the relay.
Eventually this arcing can destroy the relay contacts. Below is a chart of some methods to protect the
relay contacts.

Warning
The following two protection methods should be avoided. Each of these methods can be effective in
removing the sparks when power to the inductive load is turned off. However when power is turned on
to the inductive load there will be a high inrush current applied across the relay contacts as they are
mating. Since all relay contacts have some bounce while mating, arcing will occur and potentially melt
the relay contact points. This is the reason for having the resistor in the RC network described earlier.

Troubleshooting
• Noise from magnetic fields induced by other electrical/electronic equipment onto the PLC can
be avoided by relocating the PLC during the design process, installing the PLC in a grounded
steel enclosure, or attaching a filtering or suppression shield/circuit to the device which is
generating the magnetic field.
• Noise from power cables can be corrected by using a different ground for the PLC, an
isolation transformer, attaching a line/ground filter, or changing the power wire connection of
the PLC so that it is closer to the source of the power, therefore lowering the power source
impedance.
• Noise from lightning should be suppressed by use of surge suppressors that are specifically
designed to protect electronic equipment from lightning.
• Whenever welding near an electronic device, care must be used to avoid connecting the
ground cable of the welder to a ground of the electronic device. One method of protecting the
PLC is to disconnect the PLC from power and lifting all power and ground connection. An
alternate method is to establish two separate grounds, one for electronic equipment and one
for welding. Test the ground separation carefully before having electronic equipment up and
running while welding.
• The quickest way to avoid noise from shared cable trays is to have two cable tray runs. One
for power and power control cabling and the other for electronic equipment and low level
control wiring. Proper cable selection with good shielding properties in some instances will
allow both types of cabling/wiring to co-exist in the same tray system.
• “Grandfather’d” plant wiring has to be analyzed on a case by case basis. The best approach is
to always install new cabling, conduit, and cable tray runs. Though this may not always be
practical, it removes the surprise of high noise and system problems during system startup.
• Static electricity suppression requires good grounding practices throughout the plant. Static
electricity is a potential difference developed on a material surface due to the loss of protons
or electrons. Since rubbing action can cause the build up of static electricity, the best
protection is to have the electronic equipment enclosed in a grounded housing that requires
the user to first make contact with a safe discharge path. In high static environments like
styrofoam manufacturing or glass manufacturing, electronic equipment should always be
protected from static electricity.

Appendix A: D50 PLC Communication Protocol 155

Appendix A: D50 PLC Communication


Protocol

The D50 PLC communication protocol provides a simple, yet complete method of communications
between the Cutler-Hammer program loader software (GPC) and the PLC. Using the open protocol
outlined in this appendix, the user can quickly and easily expand the capabilities of the overall PLC
system by communicating to the PLC using a variety of peripheral communications equipment such as
operator interfaces and computers. Additionally, the communications protocol allows for multiple
Cutler-Hammer D50, D300, and D320 PLC’s to communicate to a central computer on a single
network using RS-485, at distances of up to 4000 ft (1.2 km).

Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com
156 D50 PLC User's Manual

Communication Rules

Communication Environment
The D50 PLC communications protocol uses the following settings:

• Half Duplex Asynchronous


• No Parity
• 1 Stop bit
• Communication method: RS485
• Communication speed: 9600 bps
• Number of PLCs on a single network: Maximum of 32 (communicating 1:N using RS485)
• Maximum communication delay time: 3 sec

Communication Protocol

Query (Q)
Step 1

Set the network ID number for the PLC to communicate with and send a Q signal from the peripheral
device to the PLC.

Query Acknowledge (QA)


Step 2

A QA signal is sent from the PLC to the peripheral device, indicating that the Q signal from the
peripheral device was received.

Response Request (RR)


Step 3

An RR signal goes from the peripheral device to the PLC, indicating that the QA signal from the PLC
was received, and requesting the final data response. This signal is sent when Q→QA is normal.

Response (R)
Step 4

When the PLC receives the RR from the peripheral device, it sends an R signal which gives the results
of the original Q signal sent by the peripheral device. The communication cycle for one function code
ends when the PLC sends the R.

Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com
Appendix A: D50 PLC Communication Protocol 157

Repeated Response
Step 5

Once the original Q has been sent to the D50 PLC, the R message containing the requested data for
that query can be repeatedly received by sending only the RR message again.

Communications Delay
The D50 PLC will return a signal after receiving a Q or an RR within a specific time. However, due to
errors in the communications network, CRC values, and communication speed flux, there are
occasions when the PLC will not receive the signal from the peripheral device. The peripheral device
should allow up to three seconds for a response from the PLC. If there are no responses to the Q or the
RR message, the communication is considered to have failed, and the Q or RR should be sent again.

CPU ID
All devices connected to the network need a network ID number for communication. There is an
available range of 0 to 191 network ID numbers. Redundancy is not permitted. When a single PLC and
a peripheral device are connected, usually 0, 1, or 255 is assigned as the network ID number to the
PLC. When the peripheral device wishes to communicate to a connected PLC regardless of its
programmed network ID number, it can use global network ID number 255, to which any PLC will
respond. When several CPU modules are connected to one communication network, they must use
individual ID numbers from 0 to 191. The PLC’s network ID number is configured using the GPC
program loader software.

Function Codes Included in the Query

• Each function code is 1 byte. When the PLC receives a query (Q), the function code of the
final response (R) is formed by adding $80 (hex) to the function code sent by the query.
• The function code of the R message can be used by the peripheral device to verify that the
correct Q message has been received by the PLC.

Cyclic Redundancy Checking (CRC)

• The CRC is a 2-byte checksum that is calculated from the data of every message and then
attached to the end of the message by the sender. It is used as an error-checking device to
prevent loss or corruption of data during transmission of the message.
• The sender of the message calculates and attaches the CRC when it generates and sends the
message. The receiver should also calculate the CRC from the data of the message and
compare the calculated value to the CRC that was sent. If the calculated CRC does not match
the CRC received, an error has occurred in the message during transmission.

CRC Calculation Range

DA SA Function Length Information CRC L CRC H

CRC Calculation Range 2 Bytes

The following subroutines illustrate the program code required to calculate the CRC for a message.
The initial value of the CRC (CRC_Sum) is set to 65535 ($FFFF). Then one of these subroutines
would be called once for each byte (data) of the CRC calculation range shown above.

CRC-16 Calculation Subroutine (BASIC)


CRC_Sum: CRC-16 reserve code after the calculation (CRC content to be sent at end of message)
Data: CRC-16 Data input to be calculated (Byte Data from message)
1000 CRC_Sum = CRC_Sum XOR Data
1010 FOR I=1 to 8
1020 CARRY=CRC_Sum AND 1
1030 CRC_Sum=CRC_Sum SHR 1
1040 IF CARRY=1 THEN CRC_Sum XOR 0A001H
1050 NEXT I
1060 RETURN

CRC-16 Calculation Subroutine (PASCAL)


Procedure CRC16(Data : Byte)
Var i : Byte;
Begin
CRC_Sum := CRC_Sum x or Data;
for i : 1 to 8 do
begin
if((CRC_Sum and 1)=1) then CRC_Sum := (CRC_Sum shr 1) xor $A001;
else CRC_Sum := CRC_Sum shr 1;
end;
End;

CRC-16 Calculation Subroutine (C)


void Crc16(unsigned int Data) {
unsigned int i;
Crc=Crc^(Data & 0x00FF);
for(i=0;i<=7;I++) {
if((Crc & 0x0001) == 0x0001) Crc=(Crc>>1)^0xA001;

Length of the
information field (byte) CRC-16 code
1-255:1-255 byte (2 byte)
0:256 byte

Function Code

Sender ID Number

Receiver ID Number

The frame is sent from the source address (SA) by the sender to the destination address (DA), the
receiving device. For the query (Q) and the response request (RR), the SA is the address of the
peripheral device, and the DA is the address of the PLC to which the message is being sent. For the
query answer (QA) and the response (R), the PLC becomes the sender of the message, and so the PLC
address is the SA and the peripheral device’s address is the DA.

Communication Program Example


The following program is an example program written in C code to demonstrate the D50 PLC open
communications protocol. This program consists of a header, the main program, and various
subroutines. The buffers and a few variables needed to store the communication data are set as global
variables, so that the main function and the various functions may have access. Notes are provided
alongside the main program to help explain the exact purpose and function of the individual parts of
the program. This particular program was written for the Cutler-Hammer D320 PLC, and so uses
register addresses beyond the D50 limits. For use with a D50, adjust the register addresses used in this
program (M000 to M127 and K000 to K127) to within the D50 range.

Note: This program is provided for illustrative purposes only. It is left to the responsibility of the
user/programmer to ensure that any programs written based on, and using the information
contained in this program, satisfy the requirements of their particular application.

Program Notes
#include <stdio.h> This program was written in Borland
#include <stdlib.h> C++. It uses the peripheral device
#include <dos.h> (PC) to read the M000 to M127
#include <conio.h> words, and stores them in the K000 to
K127, and then compares the two
registry values and indicates the
#define PC_ID 0xE2 results on the screen using the OK or
#define Time_limit 28 the FAIL notation. The user may read
#define retrial_limit 2 or manipulate the various
#define TRUE 1 communication function codes and
#define FALSE 0 the information sent to control the
#define lower_byte(x) (unsigned int) ((x)& 0x00FF) PLC in various ways.
#define upper_byte(x) (unsigned int) (((x)& 0xFF00)>>8)
This program consists of a header, the
main program and various functions.

2. Using the communication function
codes, reads the data of the M field,
reads the word values of the M0 to
M127 area and stores them in the K0

Overview
The D50 PLC provides several additional functions through the integrated I/O on the base unit. These
special I/O functions expand the capabilities of the D50 PLC to allow for use in a variety of specialized
applications. This appendix details those capabilities, and provides instructions on configuration,
application, programming, and operation of the special I/O. Four types of advanced operation are
available, as listed below.

Note: These special functions are only available on the controller units. They are not available
through any of the digital expansion modules, only on the base module.

High Speed Counter


The D50 PLC provides two separate high-speed counter inputs. Each counter accepts 2 phase inputs to
allow for up, down, up/down, quadrature, and ring count modes. The counters provide a 24-bit count
for signals up to 10kHz (5kHz in 2-phase mode).

Configurable Input Response Delay


The eight inputs on the base unit can be configured to delay their response to an input signal. By
programming a delay time on a digital input, input signals can be “de-bounced” to prevent false or
multiple input signals where not desired.

Pulse Catch Input


In certain applications it is necessary to be able to detect a very high-speed, short duration pulse input.
The Pulse Catch input will latch On for at least one scan any input signal of 150µsec or more.

Pulse Output
The D50 also provides one configurable output supporting two modes of pulse operation. The first
mode allows the user to send out a configurable number of pulses, at a desired frequency (Pulse
Mode). The second mode allows the user to set the output to continuous pulses at a given frequency,
with a configurable duty cycle (PWM Mode).

Appendix B: Special I/O Functions 175

Special I/O Function Registers


To handle the requirements of configuration and operation of the special function I/O, the D50
provides 21 special I/O function registers. These registers are assigned to the various functions, and
are programmed and edited by the user in the D50 PLC ladder program. The purpose of each
individual register is outlined below.

High Speed Counter


The D50 PLC provides two 24-bit, 10kHz high-speed counters (on the DC-input units only). Each of
the two counters functions identically to the other. Each has a set of 7 registers allocated for its
configuration and operation, plus an additional comparision register that they share. High-speed
counter channel 0 uses registers R4 to R10, while channel 1 uses register R19 to R25. Register R26 is
a shared comparison register that is used by both channels. The purpose of each register is described
in greater detail below.

Register Descriptions

MODE (R004, R019)


The mode register is used to turn on the high-speed counter, configure which mode it will be operating
in, and enable or disable the inputs used by the counter. Each bit in the low byte of the MODE register
is used to turn On or Off a feature of the high-speed counter channel.

STR (R005/6, R020/21)


The STR registers are a pair of registers that the user places the START value for the counter channel
into. When the register is configured for Ring Count Mode, or when the counter is reset using the
Preset bit or the Preset input, the START value is loaded into the present value of the counter. Since
the counter is a 24-bit value, two registers are required – the first holds the low 16 bits of the value,
and the second holds the high 8 bits.

END (R007/8, R022/23)


The END registers are a pair of registers that hold the Set Value for the high-speed counter. When the
present value is counting, bits are set in the comparison register that indicate when the counter is
below, at, or above the END value (see FLAG below). The END value is also a 24-bit value requiring
two registers, and is set by the user.

PV (R009/10, R024/25)
The PV registers are a pair of registers that hold the Present Value for the high-speed counter. The PV
registers hold the actual counting value of the inputs coming into the PLC. Like STR and END, PV is
a 24-bit value.

FLAG (R026)
The FLAG register provides comparison bits between the high-speed counter Present Values (PV) and
End Values (END). Each counter channel has three bits in the FLAG register that indicate whether the
PV is greater than (>), less than (<), or equal to (=) the END value. Since the equal to comparison is a
latched bit, a fourth bit is provided to reset the = bit.

Appendix B: Special I/O Functions 177

Bit Registers
Three of the configuration registers used by the high-speed counters are bit registers – each bit in the
register serves a different purpose. The three bit registers and the individual bit meanings are
described in further detail below.

Programming Procedure
The high-speed counter is very easy to use, and requires very little programming. The following steps
outline the standard programming procedure to set up, turn on, and use the D50 high speed counter.

1. Configure the type of counter to be used by turning on the necessary mode bits in the MODE
register. To set the counter up for 2-phase or Up/Down mode, set bit 6 (UD/2). To configure
the counter as a ring counter, set bit 5 (RING). If the counter uses only a single input, and is
not a ring counter, leave both bits off.
2. Enable the inputs required by the counter to count. On channel 0, set bit 0 (R0) of its MODE
register R4 if the input on R0.0 will be a count input. Likewise set bit 1 (R1) if the input on
R0.1 will be a count input (for example, for a down-counter or 2-phase counter). On channel
1, set bit 0 (R4) and bit 1 (R5) of its MODE register R19 based on which inputs, R0.4 and
R0.5, will be used as count inputs. The Preset bits PRST are should be set if an external input
will be used to reset the counter value.
3. Set the start value STR and the end value END for the counter, based on the application. The
STR value will be used to reset the counter, while the END value is used by the comparison
register HFLAG.
4. Turn on the counter channel. This is done simply by setting the RUN bit, bit 7, of the MODE
register for that channel.
5. Use either the comparison register (HFLAG) or the D50 PLC’s comparison instructions (>, <,
=, >=, <=, <>) on the present value (PV) of the counter in the program, based on the
application.

The following ladder program illustrates the above 5-step procedure for a simple counter application.
For this example, a standard Up Counter is programmed, with an end value of 100. At the count of
9000, the program turns on the D50 PLC’s first output R15.0, and at the count of 10000, the second
PLC output R15.1 is turned on. Since this is an Up Counter, the first input of channel 0 is used to
count input pulses.

R4.5
(RST) Turn OFF Ring Count mode
F1.0 R4.0
(SET) Turn ON Up input 0 (R0.0) for up count
R4.1
(RST) Turn OFF Down input 1 (R0.1)
R4.2
(RST) Turn OFF Preset input 2 (R0.2)

F1.0 DLET
D = R5 Set the Start Value (STR) to 0

DLET
D = R7 Set the End Value (END) to 10000
S = 10000

F1.0 R4.7
(SET) Turn ON the high-speed counter

D> R15.0
D = R9 (OUT) Turn ON R15.0 at 9000 counts
S = 9000

R26.0 R15.1
(OUT) Turn ON R15.1 when PV = END

Appendix B: Special I/O Functions 179

Configurable Input Response Delay


The special I/O function register FTIME (R27) controls the amount of time that an input must remain
on before the input state is changed in the PLC I/O map. This amount of time is called the “Input
Response Delay”, and affects all eight inputs on the controller module (R0.0 to R0.7). This time is
user-configurable from anywhere from 0 to 64ms in length. This allows the user to avoid false input
signals due to contact bounce, input noise, or false signals of short duration. The delay is applied
equally both to the turn On, and turn Off, of the input signal, as shown in the diagram below.

Note: Any of the eight inputs that are used for either high-speed counter or pulse catch are not
affected by the Input Response Delay setting.

Modified Input R0.0

The Input Response Delay is automatically set for all the inputs when the new time value is loaded into
the FTIME register, R27. The ladder example below illustrates setting the Input Response Delay time
to a value of 25ms.

Pulse Catch Input


In many types of high-speed applications, such as products moving along a conveyor belt, the input
signal to the PLC is of very short duration, often less than the scan time of the PLC. To allow the user
program to detect those types of short-duration input signals, the D50 allows any or all of the digital
inputs on the controller to be configured as “Pulse Catch” inputs.

When configured as a pulse catch input, any input signal of 150µsec or more is latched On for the next
I/O scan. The input remains On for at lease one I/O scan, and turns Off on the next scan after the input
signal has turned off.

I/O I/O

Modified Input R0.0

The PCATCH special I/O function register determines which of the eight inputs on the controller are
configured for pulse catch inputs, and which operate normally. Each bit in the PCATCH register R28
represents one of the eight inputs. If the bit is set On, then the corresponding input on the controller is
configured as a pulse catch input. The logic required to set the PCATCH register R28 is shown below.
In this example, inputs 1, 3, and 7 are set for Pulse Catch Inputs.

Pulse Output
The D50 PLC provides two modes of Pulse Output on the first output contact of the controller. The
first mode, Pulse Mode, sends out a given number of pulses at a user-defined frequency. The second
mode, PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) Mode, sends out a continuous stream of pulses, at a user-
defined frequency and duty-cycle. Both modes use the same set of special I/O function registers (R11
to R14). The mode used by the D50 is determined by the configuration of the PMODE register, R11.

Register Descriptions

PMODE (R11)
The mode register is used to turn on the pulse output, configure which mode it will be operating in,
enable the output used, and set up the pulse count. Each bit in the low byte of the PMODE register is
used to turn On or Off a feature of the pulse output, as shown below.

PFREQ (R012)
The PFREQ register sets the Pulse Frequency, from 20Hz to 5kHz, of the output. Whether in Pulse
Mode, or PWM Mode, the output pulses will be sent at this rate.

Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com
182 D50 PLC User's Manual

PSV (R013)
The PSV register is defined by the Mode of operation. In Pulse Mode, the PSV register holds the total
number of Pulses to be sent out, from 0 to 65,535. When set to 0, the pulse output is continuous. In
PWM Mode, the PSV register holds the duty cycle of the pulse, from 0 to 100%.

The Duty Cycle of the pulse is defined as the width of the pulse, from 0 (no pulse) to 100% (constant
On). For example, a 100Hz pulse will generate 100 pulses every second, or 1 pulse every 10ms. If the
duty cycle of the pulse is 75%, the pulse is ON for 75% of that 10ms, or for 7.5ms. It is OFF for the
remaining 25%, or 2.5ms. This is illustrated by the diagram below.

Pulse Frequency: 100Hz


Duty Cycle: 75%

7.5ms

10ms

PPV (R014)
The PPV register holds the Present Value of the Pulse Output when in Pulse Mode. The Present value
counts down from the initial value, set by the PSV register. When the PPV register reaches 0, the
pulses stop. In PWM Mode, the PPV register should always be 0.

Appendix B: Special I/O Functions 183

Pulse Mode Programming Procedure


Programming the pulse output for Pulse Mode is a very simple procedure. The following steps allow
the user to set the pulse output to send out the exact number of pulses required by the application.

1. Configure the pulse output for Pulse Mode by turning Off bit 6 of the PMODE register R11.
2. Enable the pulse output R15.0 by turning On bit 5 of the PMODE register R11.
3. Set the Pulse Frequency PFREQ (R12) for the pulses to be sent out.
4. Set the initial Pulse Value PSV (R13) for the total number of pulses to be sent out.
5. Turn on the Pulse Output by turning On bit 7 of the PMODE register R11.
6. Begin the Pulse Output by turning on the Preset bit (bit 4) of the PMODE register R11. This
will move the total number of pulses into the Present Value register, and begin pulsing the
outputs.

The following ladder program illustrates the above procedure by configuring a Pulse Output on the
D50 PLC. The Pulse Output is set to send out exactly 200 pulses at a frequency of 50Hz, when the
PLC is first placed into RUN.

184 D50 PLC User's Manual

PWM Mode Programming Procedure


Programming the PWM Mode is similar to the Pulse Mode. Rather than setting an initial value and
triggering the PRST bit, the PWM mode simply requires the user to set the Frequency and Duty cycle.
The following procedure should be followed to properly set and use the PWM Mode.

1. Configure the pulse output for PWM Mode by turning On bit 6 of the PMODE register R11.
2. Enable the pulse output R15.0 by turning On bit 5 of the PMODE register R11.
3. Set the Pulse Frequency PFREQ (R12) for the pulses to be sent out.
4. Set the Pulse Duty Cycle PSV (R13) for the width of the pulses, from 0 to 100%.
5. Turn on the Pulse Output by turning On bit 7 of the PMODE register R11.

The following ladder program illustrates the above procedure by configuring a PWM Output on the
D50 PLC. The PWM Output is set to continuously send out pulses at a frequency of 50Hz and a duty
cycle of 25%, when the PLC is first placed into RUN.

Error Checking
The D50 has built-in error-checking routines that can check the PLC program for syntax errors such as
multiple output coils using the same reference, invalid coil addresses, and so on. The D50 pocket
editor can request an error check from the D50 PLC using the SHF and CHK keys.

To start the error check, press the SHF key, and then the CHK key. If errors are detected, the 5 digit
display will show an “E” followed by a two-digit error code. If no errors are detected, the current
instruction will be display with no change.

Appendix C: D50PGM10 Pocket Editor 201

Monitor I/O
There are two types of monitoring that the pocket editor can perform. The first type is bit monitoring,
which displays the state of a given contact or coil in the program. The second type of monitoring is
register monitoring, which displays the 16-bit value of any user-specified register address. The
monitor mode can also be used to force output bits to a given state, On or Off.

Bit Monitoring
I/O bits (contacts and coils) can only be monitored through the PLC program. At each step in the PLC
program, the ON LED will reflect the state of the bit address in that step of the program. If the ON
LED is lit, the bit address displayed is in the On state.

• Function: Monitor the state of a contact in the program


• PLC Mode: RUN

Any valid register address can be monitored using the register monitor mode of the pocket editor. In
this mode, the register is continuously updated from the D50 PLC, and can be changed by the user.

To enter the monitor register mode, press the SHF key, the register address, and then the MON (DIF)
key. Use the NXT and PRE keys to move to the next or previous register address. To change the
value, press the 0 (NOT) key, followed by the new value and the enter (ENT) key. To display the
address of the register being monitored, press the ENT key. To exit the monitor register mode, press
the Clear (CLR) key.

Force Outputs
The states of output coils can be forced On or Off in the D50 PLC. The output to be forced must be an
output that has been programmed in the PLC. The SET and RST keys are used for Force On and Force
Off, respectively. Using the NXT or PRE keys will clear the force from the coil and move to the next
or previous instruction. The CLR key will remove the force while continuing to display that
instruction.
