3A + B + 2C + 6D x 12
A+B+C+Dx8
When considering the limitations on the numbers of different types of Special I/O
Units that can be used, refer also to Number of Units previously described.

System Configuration Special I/O Units are allocated IR area addresses according to the unit number
Considerations switch settings on their front panels, and not according to the slots in which they
are mounted.
With the C200H, do not mount an Analog I/O Unit in the two slots adjacent to the
CPU Unit. Doing so would prevent peripheral devices such as the Programming
Console from being connected.
Special I/O Units cannot be used on a C200H Remote I/O Slave Rack if the
Slave Rack is connected to different PC (i.e., C500, C1000H, or C2000H).

Mounting Analog I/O Units Use the following procedure to mount an Analog I/O Unit to the Backplane.

1, 2, 3... 1. Lock the top of the Analog I/O Unit into the slot on the Backplane and rotate
the Unit downwards as shown in the following diagram.

2. While making sure to align the Unit properly with the connectors, press
down on the lock lever at the bottom of the slot, press the Unit firmly into po-
sition, and then release the lock lever.
(To remove a Unit, hold down the lock lever with an implement such as a
screwdriver.)

Precautions Be sure to turn off the power supply to the PC before installing or disconnecting
Units or connecting lines.
To reduce the risk of malfunctioning due to electrical noise, wire input and output
lines in separate ducts from high-voltage and power lines.
When wiring a Unit, place a cover over the top of the Unit to prevent wire clip-
pings and so on from getting inside. When the wiring has been completed, the
cover must be removed to prevent heat radiation.

Remove the cover after the


wiring has been completed.

Setting the Unit Number Section 1-3

1-3 Setting the Unit Number


The CPU Unit and Analog I/O Units exchange data via the IR area and the DM
area. The IR and DM word numbers that each Analog I/O Unit occupies are set
by the unit number switch on the front panel of the Unit.

Note If the power supply is shared by two channels as shown above, while the con-
nected device 2 outputs 5 V, approximately 1.6 V (one-third of the output volt-
age) is generated in input 1.
If a line breakage occurs while using the voltage input, either separate the power
supply from the connected device or use an isolator for each input to avoid the
following problem.

15
Wiring Section 2-3

If the line breakage occurs at point A or B as shown in the preceding diagram


while power is shared by the connected devices, a short-circuit line will be
formed as indicated by the dotted line in the above illustration, thus generating a
voltage of approximately one-third to two-thirds of the voltage output from the
connected device. If this kind of voltage is generated while using the Unit at 1 to
5 V, the line breakage may not be detected. If the line breakage occurs at point
C, it will not be detected because the negative (–) side is common.
In case of the current input, this kind of problem will not occur even if the power
supply is shared by the connected devices.

Note 1. When using current inputs, the voltage input terminals (V+) and current in-
put terminals (I+) must be individually short-circuited as shown in the above
diagram.
2. For inputs that are not used, either set to “0: Do not use” in the input number
settings (refer to 2-5-1 Setting Inputs and Signal Ranges) or short-circuit the
voltage input terminals (V+) and (V–).
3. Crimp-type terminals must be used for terminal connections, and the
screws must be tightened securely. Use M3 screws and tighten them to a
torque of 0.5 N S m.

Fork Type

M3 screw 6.0 mm max.

Round Type

Connecting shielded cable to the Unit’s COM terminals (A3, A10, B6, B13)
can improve noise resistance.

16
IR and DM Areas Section 2-4

2-3-5 Input Wiring Considerations


When wiring inputs, apply the following points to avoid noise interference and
optimize Analog Input Unit performance.
• Use shielded twisted-pair cable for external connections and power lines.
• Route input cables separately from the AC cable, and do not run the Unit’s
cables near a main circuit cable, high voltage cable, or a non-PC load cable.
• If there is noise interference from power lines (if, for example, the power supply
is shared with electrical welding devices or electrical discharge machines, or if
there is a high-frequency generation source nearby) install a noise filter at the
power supply input area.

2-4 IR and DM Areas


The IR and DM word addresses that each Analog Input Unit occupies are set by
the unit number switch on the front panel of the Unit.

Using the Functions Section 2-5

For the DM word addresses, m = 1000 + 100 x unit number (Units #A to #F = Unit
numbers 10 to 15).

Note After making the DM settings from a Peripheral Device, it will be necessary to
either power up the PC again or turn ON the Special I/O Unit Restart Bit in order
to transfer the contents of the DM settings to the Special I/O Unit. For details re-
garding the Special I/O Unit Restart Bit, refer to 2-7-4 Restarting Special I/O
Units.

2-5-2 Reading Conversion Values


Analog input conversion values are stored for each input number, in IR words
n+1 through n+8.

Word Function Stored value


n+1 Input 1 conversion value 16-bit binary data
n+2 Input 2 conversion value
n+3 Input 3 conversion value
n+4 Input 4 conversion value
n+5 Input 5 conversion value
n+6 Input 6 conversion value
n+7 Input 7 conversion value
n+8 Input 8 conversion value

For the IR word addresses, n = 100 + 10 x unit number.


For Units #A to #F (10 to 15), n = 400 + 10 x (unit number – 10).
Use MOV(21) or XFER(70) to read conversion values in the user program.

Example 1 In this example, the conversion data from only one input is read. (The unit num-
ber is #0.)

Input condition
MOV(21) Conversion data in IR word
101 (input number 1) is read
101
to DM 0001.
DM0001

Example 2 In this example, the conversion data from multiple inputs is read. (The unit num-
ber is #0.)

Input condition
XFER(70) Conversion data in IR words
101 to 104 (input numbers 1
#0004
to 4) is read to DM 0001

Using the Functions Section 2-5

2-5-3 Mean Value Processing


The Analog Input Unit can compute the mean value of the conversion values of
analog inputs that have been previously sampled. Mean value processing in-
volves an operational mean value in the history buffers, so it has no affect on the
data refresh cycle. (The number of history buffers that can be set to use mean
value processing is 2, 4, 8, or 16.)

Conversion data Buffer 1

Buffer 2

Buffer 3
(Mean value Conversion value

Buffer 4 (Values stored in IR
words n+1 to n+8)

Buffer n

(Discarded)

When “n” number of history buffers are being used, the first conversion data will
be stored for all “n” number of history buffers immediately data conversion has
begun or after a disconnection is restored.
When mean value processing is used together with the peak value function, the
mean value will be held.
To specify whether or not mean value processing is to be used, and to specify the
number of history buffers for mean data processing, use a Peripheral Device to
make the settings in DM m+2 through DM m+9 as shown in the following table.

Word Function Set value


DM (m+2) Input 1 mean value processing 0000: No mean value processing
DM (m+3) Input 2 mean value processing 0001: Mean value processing with 2 buffers
DM (m+4) Input 3 mean value processing 0002: Mean value processing with 4 buffers
DM (m+5) Input 4 mean value processing 0003: Mean value processing with 8 buffers
DM (m+6) Input 5 mean value processing 0004: Mean value processing with 16 buffers
DM (m+7) Input 6 mean value processing
DM (m+8) Input 7 mean value processing
DM (m+9) Input 8 mean value processing

For the DM word addresses, m = 1000 + 100 x unit number (Units #A to #F = Unit
numbers 10 to 15).

Note After making the DM settings from a Peripheral Device, it will be necessary to
either power up the PC again or turn ON the Special I/O Unit Restart Bit in order
to transfer the contents of the DM settings to the Special I/O Unit. For details re-
garding the Special I/O Unit Restart Bit, refer to 2-7-4 Restarting Special I/O
Units.

Using the Functions Section 2-5

2-5-4 Peak Value Function


The peak value function holds the maximum digital conversion value for every
input (including mean value processing). This function can be used with analog
input. The following diagram shows how digital conversion values are affected
when the peak value function is used.

Digital conversion value

Peak value hold

t (Time)

The peak value function can be set individually for each input number by turning
on the respective bits (00 to 07) in IR word n.

The peak hold function will be in effect
for the above input numbers while
their respective bits are ON. The
conversion values will be reset when
the bits are turned OFF.

For the IR word addresses, n = 100 + 10 x unit number.


For Units #A to #F (10 to 15), n = 400 + 10 x (unit number – 10).
In the following example, the peak value function is in effect for input number 1,
and the unit number is 0.

Input condition
The maximum
10000
conversion
data value is
held for input
number 1.

When mean value processing is used together with the peak value function, the
mean value will be held.
As long as the peak value function is in effect, the peak value will be held even in
the event of a disconnection.

2-5-5 Input Disconnection Detection Function


When an input signal range of 1 to 5 V (4 to 20 mA) is used, input circuit discon-
nections can be detected. The detection conditions for each of the input signal
ranges are shown in the following table.
Range Current/voltage
1 to 5 V 0.3 V max.
4 to 20 mA 1.2 mA max.

25
Using the Functions Section 2-5

The input disconnection detection signals for each input number are stored in
bits 00 to 07 of IR word n+9. Specify these bits as execution conditions in order to
use disconnection detection in the user’s program.

Input 3

Input 2

Input 1
The respective bit turns ON when a
disconnection is detected for a given
input. When the disconnection is
restored, the bit turns OFF.

For the IR word addresses, n = 100 + 10 x unit number.


For Units #A to #F (10 to 15), n = 400 + 10 x (unit number – 10).
The conversion value during a disconnection will be 0000.
Disconnection detection is performed on the input voltage/current data that has
been converted into digital values. Therefore, detected values may be different
from those shown in the above table due to offset and gain adjustments, etc.
In the following example, the conversion value is read only if there is no discon-
nection at analog input number 1. (The unit number is 0.)

10900

101
sion value in

2-7 Error Processing


2-7-1 Troubleshooting Procedure
Use the following procedure for troubleshooting Analog Input Unit errors.
1, 2, 3... 1. Error occurs.
2. Is the ERROR indicator lit?
Yes: Error detected by Analog Input Unit
(Refer to 2-7-2 Errors Detected by Analog Input Unit.)
No: Go to the next step.
3. Is the RUN indicator lit?
Yes: Error detected by CPU Unit
(Refer to 2-7-3 Errors Detected by CPU Unit.)
Check whether the operation mode switch on the back of the Analog
Input Unit is set correctly.
No: Refer to 2-7-5 Troubleshooting.
If both the ERROR and RUN indicators are lit, check whether the operation
mode switch on the back of the Analog Input Unit is set correctly.

2-7-2 Errors Detected by Analog Input Unit


When an error occurs at the Analog Input Unit, the ERROR indicator on the front
panel of the Unit lights and the error code is stored in bits 08 to 15 of IR word n+9.

Note Disconnection detection (82) operates for input numbers used with a range of 1
to 5 V (4 to 20 mA).
Errors indicated with 8j codes are automatically reset when proper counter-
measures are taken. The errors indicated with Fj codes are cleared when the
power is turned on after making the correct settings and when the Special I/O

Wiring Section 3-3

Note Crimp-type terminals must be used for terminal connections, and the screws
must be tightened securely. Use M3 screws and tighten them to a torque of
0.5 N S m.

Fork Type

M3 screw 6.0 mm max.

Round Type

6.0 mm max.

To minimize output wiring noise, ground the output signal line to the output de-
vice.

3-3-4 Output Wiring Considerations


When wiring outputs, apply the following points to avoid noise interference and
optimize Analog Output Unit performance.
• Use shielded twisted-pair cable for external connections.
• Route output cables separately from the AC cable, and do not run the Unit’s
cables near a main circuit cable, high voltage cable, or a non-PC load cable.
• If there is noise interference from power lines (if, for example, the power supply
is shared with electrical welding devices or electrical discharge machines, or if
there is a high-frequency generation source nearby) install a noise filter at the
power supply output area.
• When the power supply to the PC is turned on or off, momentary voltage or
current may be output from the output terminal.

n+2 Output 2 set value
n+3 Output 3 set value
n+4 Output 4 set value
n+5 Output 5 set value
n+6 Output 6 set value
n+7 Output 7 set value
n+8 Output 8 set value

For the IR word addresses, n = 100 + 10 x unit number.


For Units #A to #F (10 to 15), n = 400 + 10 x (unit number – 10).
Use MOV(21) or XFER(70) to write values in the user program.
Example 1 In this example, the set value from only one input is read. (The unit number is
#0.)

Input condition
MOV (21) The set value stored in DM 0001
DM0001 is written to IR word 101 (output
101 number 1).

Example 2 In this example, multiple set values are written. (The unit number is #0.)

Input condition
XFER(70)
The set values stored in DM 0001
#0004 to DM 0004 are written to IR words
DM0001 101 to 104 (outputs 1 to 4).

For Units #A to #F (10 to 15), n = 400 + 10 x (unit number – 10).

52
Using the Functions Section 3-5

The analog output when conversion is stopped will differ depending on the out-
put signal range setting. (Refer to 3-5-1 Setting Outputs and Signal Ranges.)
Conversion will not begin under the following conditions even if the Conversion
Enable Bit is turned ON.
1, 2, 3... 1. In adjustment mode, when something other than the output number is out-
put during adjustment. (Refer to 3-6-1 Adjustment Mode Operational Flow.)
2. When there is an output setting error. (Refer to 3-5-5 Output Setting Errors.)
3. When a fatal error occurs at the PC. (Refer to the C200HX/HG/HE Program-
ming Manual.)
In this example, conversion is begun for analog output number 1. (The unit num-
ber is #0.)

3-7-1 Troubleshooting Procedure
Use the following procedure for troubleshooting Analog Input Unit errors.
1, 2, 3... 1. Error occurs.
2. Is the ERROR indicator lit?
Yes: Error detected by Analog Output Unit
(Refer to 3-7-2 Errors Detected by Analog Output Unit.)
No: Go to the next step.
3. Is the RUN indicator lit?
Yes: Error detected by CPU Unit
(Refer to 3-7-3 Errors Detected by CPU Unit.)
Check whether the operation mode switch on the back of the Analog
Output Unit is set correctly.
No: Refer to 3-7-5 Troubleshooting.
If both the ERROR and RUN indicators are lit, check whether the operation
mode switch on the back of the Analog Output Unit is set correctly.

3-7-2 Errors Detected by Analog Output Unit


When an error occurs at the Analog Output Unit, the ERROR indicator on the
front panel of the Unit lights and the error code is stored in bits 08 to 15 of IR word

4. A/D conversion time is the time it takes for an analog signal to be stored in
memory as converted data after it has been input. It takes at least one cycle
before the converted data is read by the CPU Unit. D/A conversion time is
the time required for converting and outputting the PC data. It takes at least
one cycle for the data stored in the PC to be read by the Analog Output Unit.
By executing an I/O refresh, the conversion time may be extended by an
additional 0.3 ms approximately.

4-2-2 Unit Number Switch


The CPU Unit and Analog I/O Unit exchange data via the IR area and the DM
area. The IR and DM word addresses that each Analog Input Unit occupies are
set by the unit number switch on the front panel of the Unit.
Always turn off the power before setting the unit number. Use a flat-blade screw-
driver, being careful not to damage the slot in the screw. Be sure not to leave the
switch midway between settings.

Note 1. The analog I/O numbers that can be used are set in the Data Memory (DM).
2. The I/O signal ranges for individual inputs and outputs are set in the Data
Memory (DM). They can be set in units of analog I/O numbers.
3. The COM terminal (A9, B9) is connected to the 0-V analog circuit in the Unit.
Connecting shielded input lines can improve noise resistance.

24 VDC

Note If the power supply is shared by two channels as shown above, while the con-
nected device 2 outputs 5 V, approximately 1.6 V (one-third of the output volt-
age) is generated in input 1.

73
Wiring Section 4-3

If a line breakage occurs while using the voltage input, either separate the power
supply from the connected device or use an isolator for each input to avoid the
following problem.

If the line breakage occurs at point A or B as shown in the preceding diagram


while power is shared by the connected devices, a short-circuit line will be
formed as indicated by the dotted line in the above illustration, thus generating a
voltage of approximately one-third to two-thirds of the voltage output from the
connected device. If this kind of voltage is generated while using the Unit at 1 to
5 V, the line breakage may not be detected. If the line breakage occurs at point
C, it will not be detected because the negative (–) side is common.

In case of the current input, this kind of problem will not occur even if the power
supply is shared by the connected devices.

Note 1. When using current inputs, the voltage input terminals (V+) and current in-
put terminals (I+) must be individually short-circuited as shown in the above
diagram.

2. Do not simultaneously connect voltage output terminals and current output


terminals with the same output numbers. Voltage outputs and current out-
puts cannot be used at the same time with the same output numbers.

3. For inputs that are not used, either set to “0: Do not use” in the input number
settings (refer to 4-5-1 Setting Inputs and Signal Ranges) or short-circuit the
voltage input terminals (V+) and (V–).

74
Wiring Section 4-3

4. Crimp-type terminals must be used for terminal connections, and the


screws must be tightened securely. Use M3 screws and tighten them to a
torque of 0.5 N S m.

Fork Type

M3 screw 6.0 mm max.

Round Type

6.0 mm max.

Connecting shielded cable to the Unit’s COM terminals (A9, B9) can improve
noise resistance.
To minimize output wiring noise, ground the output signal line to the output de-
vice.

4-3-5 I/O Wiring Considerations


When wiring inputs, apply the following points to avoid noise interference and
optimize Analog I/O Unit performance.
• Use shielded twisted-pair cable for external connections.
• Route I/O cables separately from the AC cable, and do not run the Unit’s
cables near a main circuit cable, high voltage cable, or a non-PC load cable.
• If there is noise interference from power lines (if, for example, the power supply
is shared with electrical welding devices or electrical discharge machines, or if
there is a high-frequency generation source nearby) install a noise filter at the
power supply input area.
• When the power supply to the PC is turned on or off, momentary voltage or
current may be output from the output terminal.

For the DM word addresses, m = 1000 + 100 x unit number (Units #A to #F = Unit
numbers 10 to 15).

Input Signal Range Any of four types of input signal range can be selected for each of the eight inputs
(input numbers 1 and 2). In order to specify the input signal range for each input,
set from a Peripheral Device the DM bits shown in the following diagram.

Unit numbers 10 to 15).
2. The I/O signal range of “1 to 5 V” or “4 to 20 mA” is switched according to the
input terminal connections.
3. After making the DM settings from a Peripheral Device, it will be necessary
to either power up the PC again or turn ON the Special I/O Unit Restart Bit in
order to transfer the contents of the DM settings to the Special I/O Unit. For
details regarding the Special I/O Unit Restart Bit, refer to 4-9-4 Restarting
Special I/O Units.

Analog Input Functions Section 4-5

4-5-2 Reading Conversion Values


Analog input conversion values are stored for each input number, in IR words
n+5 and n+6.
Word Function Stored value
n+5 Input 1 conversion value 16-bit binary data
n+6 Input 2 conversion value
For the IR word addresses, n = 100 + 10 x unit number.
For Units #A to #F (10 to 15), n = 400 + 10 x (unit number – 10).
Use MOV(21) or XFER(70) to read conversion values in the user program.
Example 1 In this example, the conversion data from only one input is read. (The unit num-
ber is #0.)

Input condition
MOV(21) Conversion data in IR word
105 (input number 1) is read

For details regarding conversion value scaling, refer to page 116, Sample Pro-
gram 5: Scaling Function.

4-5-3 Mean Value Processing


The Analog I/O Unit can compute the mean value of the conversion values of
analog inputs that have been previously sampled. Mean value processing in-
volves an operational mean value in the history buffers, so it has no affect on the
data refresh cycle. (The number of history buffers that can be set to use mean
value processing is 2, 4, 8, or 16.)
Conversion data Buffer 1

Buffer 2

Buffer 3

(Discarded)

When “n” number of history buffers are being used, the first conversion data will
be stored for all “n” number of history buffers immediately data conversion has
begun or after a disconnection is restored.

82
Analog Input Functions Section 4-5

When mean value processing is used together with the peak value function, the
mean value will be held.
To specify whether or not mean value processing is to be used, and to specify the
number of history buffers for mean data processing, use a Peripheral Device to
make the settings in DM m+6 and DM m+7 as shown in the following table.
DM word Function Set value
DM (m+6) Input 1 mean value processing 0000: No mean value processing
0001: Mean value processing with 2 buffers
0002: Mean value processing with 4 buffers
DM (m+7) Input 2 mean value processing 0003: Mean value processing with 8 buffers
0004: Mean value processing with 16 buffers

For the DM word addresses, m = 1000 + 100 x unit number (Units #A to #F = Unit
numbers 10 to 15).
Note After making the DM settings from a Peripheral Device, it will be necessary to
either power up the PC again or turn ON the Special I/O Unit Restart Bit in order
to transfer the contents of the DM settings to the Special I/O Unit. For details re-
garding the Special I/O Unit Restart Bit, refer to 4-9-4 Restarting Special I/O
Units.
The history buffer operational means are calculated as shown below. (In this ex-
ample there are four buffers.)

When a disconnection is restored, the mean value processing function begins
again from step 1.

4-5-4 Peak Value Function


The peak value function holds the maximum digital conversion value for every
input (including mean value processing). This function can be used with analog
input. The following diagram shows how digital conversion values are affected
when the peak value function is used.

The peak value function can be set individually for each input number by turning
on the respective bits (04 and 05) in IR word n.

The peak hold function will be in effect for the


above input numbers while their respective
bits are ON. The conversion values will be
reset when the bits are turned OFF.

For the IR word addresses, n = 100 + 10 x unit number.


For Units #A to #F (10 to 15), n = 400 + 10 x (unit number – 10).

84
Analog Input Functions Section 4-5

In the following example, the peak value function is in effect for input number 1,
and the unit number is 0.

Input condition
The maximum
10004
conversion
data value is
held for input
number 1.

When mean value processing is used together with the peak value function, the
mean value will be held.
As long as the peak value function is in effect, the peak value will be held even in
the event of a disconnection.

4-5-5 Input Disconnection Detection Function


When an input signal range of 1 to 5 V (4 to 20 mA) is used, input circuit discon-
nections can be detected. The detection conditions for each of the input signal
ranges are shown in the following table.
Range Current/voltage
1 to 5 V 0.3 V max.
4 to 20 mA 1.2 mA max.

The input disconnection detection signals for each input number are stored in
bits 04 and 05 of IR word n+9. Specify these bits as execution conditions in order
to use disconnection detection in the user’s program.

Word n+9

Input 2

Input 1

The respective bit turns ON when a


disconnection is detected for a given
input. When the disconnection is
restored, the bit turns OFF.

For the IR word addresses, n = 100 + 10 x unit number.


For Units #A to #F (10 to 15), n = 400 + 10 x (unit number – 10).
The conversion value during a disconnection will be 0000.
Disconnection detection is performed on the input voltage/current data that has
been converted into digital values. Therefore, detected values may be different
from those shown in the above table due to offset and gain adjustments, etc.
In the following example, the conversion value is read only if there is no discon-
nection at analog input number 1. (The unit number is 0.)

Note Refer to 4-5 Analog Input Functions for input settings.
For the DM word addresses, m = 1000 + 100 x unit number (Units #A to #F = Unit
numbers 10 to 15).
Output Signal Range Any of four types of output signal range can be selected for each of the two out-
puts (output numbers 1 and 2). In order to specify the output signal range for

4-7 Ratio Conversion Function


The Analog I/O Unit has a ratio conversion function that enables it to perform
analog-to-analog conversions by itself, without utilizing the PC. It can use either
Loop 1 (input number 1 → output number 1) or Loop 2 (input number 2 → output
number 2).
Input 1 → Ratio bias calculation → Output 1
Input 2 → Ratio bias calculation → Output 2
The relationship between the analog input and the analog output is expressed
by the following conversion equations.
Positive Gradient (Analog output) = A x (Analog input) + B

A/D Conversion Data Identification Setting


Only the C200H-AD002 has this function; the C200H-AD003 does not. Data is always output in 16-bit binary, and a
BCD display can be created using a ladder program. (Refer to page 118, Sample Program 6: Binary-to-BCD Con-
version.)

Square Root Calculation Function


The C200H-AD003 does not have this function, but an equivalent can be created using a ladder program. (Refer to

Scaling Function
The C200H-AD003 does not have this function, but an equivalent can be created using a ladder program. (Refer to
page 116, Sample Program 5: Scaling Function.)

Mean Value Processing Function


With C200H-AD001/002 mean values, digital output values were not refreshed until the data was obtained from
the set number of samplings. With the C200H-AD003, however, the digital output values are refreshed with each
conversion cycle. (For details regarding C200H-AD003 mean value processing, refer to 2-5-3 Mean Value Pro-
cessing.) A function equivalent to the mean value processing of the C200H-AD001/002 can be created using a
ladder program. (Refer to page 120, Sample Program 8: Mean Value Processing.)

Upper- and Lower-limit Alarm Function


Only the C200H-AD002 has this function; the C200H-AD003 does not. An equivalent can be created using a lad-
der program. (Refer to page 114, Sample Program 3: Upper- and Lower-limit Alarm (Regular Monitoring) and
