3. PC Link Communication
3.1 Overview
Personal computer
Figure 3-1 Connection of Slaves in PC Link Communication
The use of PC link communication enables UT100 Series to communicate with a device such as a PC,
easily. In this communication, you can use such device to read/write data from/into D registers or read
data from I relays, both of which are internal registers of the UT100 Series.
Hereafter, PCs are generally called “host devices.”
See Also
Chapters 6 to 9 for information on the D registers and I relays.
In the PC link communication, a host device identifies each UT100 Series with a communication
address of 1 to 99. Some of commands to use let you to specify broadcast that requires no address
numbers. For more information on broadcast specification, see subsection 3.2.2.
IM 05C01E12-10E 3-1
3.1.1 Configuration of Command
Commands sent from a host device to UT100 Series, consist of the following elements.
Number of 1 2 2 1 3 Variable length 2 1 1

Bytes
STX Address CPU Time to Command Data corresponding Checksum ETX CR
Element number number wait for to command
(ADR) 01 response
0
(1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9)
(1) STX (Start of Text)

This control code indicates the start of a command. The character code is CHR$(2).
(2) Address Number (01 to 99)

Address numbers are used by the host device to identify UT100 Series at the communication destina-
tion. (They are identification numbers specific to the UT100 Series.)
(3) CPU Number

This number is fixed to 01.
(4) Time to Wait for Response

This is fixed to 0.
(5) Command (See subsection 3.2.1, List of Commands)

Specify a command to be issued from the host device.
(6) Data Corresponding to Command

Specify an internal register (D register or I relay), number of data pieces, UT100 Series parameter
value, and others.
(7) Checksum
This converts the ASCII codes of texts between the character next to STX and the character immedi-
ately before the checksum into hexadecimal values and adds them byte by byte. It then fetches the
single lowermost byte of the added results as the checksum.
This column is only required for PC link communication with checksum. PC link communication
without checksum does not require this 2-byte space of ASCII code.
(8) ETX (End of Text)

This control code indicates the end of a command string. The character code is CHR$(3).
(9) CR (Carriage Return)

This control code indicates the end of a command. The character code is CHR$(13).
NOTE
The control codes STX, ETX, and CR are essential for commands when you create a communication
program for PC link communication. Omission of any of them or incorrect order of them results in
communication failure.

● Data Form of Commands

The table below shows the data forms of commands for D registers and I relays.
Table 3-1 Data Forms of Commands for D Registers and I Relays
Type of Data Contents of Data Specified Form
PV high and low limits, target setpoints, and oth- Measuring range (EU) data Numeric data not including the deci-
ers mal point
Bias, deviation alarms, and other Measuring range width (EUS) data Numeric data not including the deci-
mal point
Proportional bands, upper and lower limits of % data (0.0 to 100.0%) 0 to 1000
output, and others
Various modes, alarm types, and others Seconds, absolute values, and data Absolute values not including the
without unit decimal point
● Command Format for Communication

Example: When setting a target setpoint “50.0” to a UT100 Series, the host device sends the value
“500” as command data without the decimal point (this is true for both setting 5.00 or 500).
Data to be send from the host device: hexadecimal value of 500 (01F4)
Command data: 01F4 Response data from UT100 Series: 01F4
UT100 Series side

Target setpoint: 50.0
* The position of the decimal point for “500” is determined by the DP (position of decimal point) parameter of the UT100 Series.
3.1.2 Configuration of Response

Responses from UT100 Series with respect to a command sent from the host device consists of the
elements shown below, which differ depending on the condition of communication; normal or failure.
1) Normal Communication
When communication is complete normally, UT100 Series return a character string “OK” and when
the read commands, return read-out data.
Number of 1 2 2 2 Variable length 2 1 1

Bytes
STX Address CPU OK Parameter data Checksum ETX CR
Element number number
(ADR) 01
2) In the Event of Failure

If communication is complete abnormally, UT100 Series return a character string “ER” and error code
(EC1 and EC2). (See subsection 3.2.4, Response Error Codes.)
• No response is made in case of an error in address number specification or CPU number specification.
• If a UT100 Series cannot receive ETX in a command, response may not be made.
* As a measure against those, provide a timeout process in the communication functions of the host
device or in communication programs.

3.2 Communication with Host Device
In PC link communication, when specifying D registers or I relays, the internal registers of UT100
Series, you can use their numbers as is. The specifications of the number of each internal register are:
• D registers: D**** (****: 4-digit numeric value)
• I relays: I**** (****: 4-digit numeric value)
Host devices to be connected to UT100 Series are those capable of handling the PC link communica-
tion protocol.
As an example of communication program, Section 3.3 shows an example of BASIC program created
using Microsoft Quick BASIC.

3.2.2 Specifying Broadcast
The personal computer sends data to all of the substations at one time.
Note: The substations do not give any response.
Host controller (master station)
Figure 3-2 Specifying Broadcast
The broadcast function enables all of the connected UT100 Series or other devices to receive a
command. Specifying an address number in Table 3-2 for the address number column in a command
enables the host device to write data from/into the internal registers of all UT100 Series or other
devices.
For UT100 Series, internal registers (D registers and I relays) are assigned with numbers for manage-
ment. (See chapters 6 to 9 for details.) For the internal registers of other models, see the documenta-
tion of the relevant model.

3.3 Example of BASIC Program for Send and Receive

This section shows an example of a command sending and response receiving program created with
Microsoft Quick BASIC*2 for PC/AT*1 (or compatible machines).
The communication conditions of the UT100 Series and those of the PC (e.g., communication rate)
must agree with each other. Set the communication rate (baud rate) of the PC using the SWITCH
command of MS-DOS*3. For how to use the SWITCH command, refer to the User’s Reference
Manual of MS-DOS. Moreover, set the parity, character bit length, stop bit length, and so on using the
OPEN statement.

Chapter 4 Ladder Communication
4. Ladder Communication
4.1 Overview
You can establish a data link between UT100 Series controller and sequencer (PLC) by simply
creating a ladder program on PLC.
By specifying the register numbers of the D registers of the instrument as parameters in the ladder
program, you can write/read data to and from the registers using BCD codes (0 to 9).
You cannot access I relays when using ladder communication. First, obtain an understanding of the
ladder communication protocol, then refer to the examples of ladder communication in Subsection 4.3.
Ladder communication module

(F3RZ91-0N)
FA-M3
Maximum overall calbe length of 1200m for a maximum of 31 substations
Figure 4-1 Connection Example for Ladder Communication
● Connecting the digital indicating controller to a PLC made by Mitsubishi

When the controller is connected to a PLC manufactured by Mitsubishi (MELSEC-A series), you can
use the non-procedural mode of the computer link unit. An example of communication program
connected with MELSEC-A series PC link units is described in section 4.3.
IM 05C01E12-10E 4-1
● Data Form of Commands
The table below shows the data forms of commands for D registers.
Table 4-1 Data Forms of Commands for D Registers
Type of Data Contents of Data Specified Form
PV high and low limits, target setpoints, and oth- Measuring range (EU) data Numeric data not including the deci-
ers mal point
Bias, deviation alarms, and other Measuring range span (EUS) data Numeric data not including the deci-
mal point
Proportional bands, upper and lower limits of % data (0.0 to 100.0%) 0 to 1000
output, and others
Various modes, alarm types, and others Seconds, absolute values, and data Absolute values not including the
without unit decimal point
● Command Format for Communication

Example: When setting a target setpoint “50.0” to UT100 Series, the higher-level device sends the
value “500” as command data without the decimal point (this is true for both setting 5.00 or 500).
Data to be send from the higher-level device: 500
Command data: 500 Response data from UT100 Series: 500
UT100 Series side

* The position of the decimal point for “500” is determined by the DP (position of decimal point) parameter of UT100 Series.

4.3 Example of Ladder Communication Programs

This manual presents examples of how Yokogawa’s UT100 series temperature controller is ladder-
programmed to communicate with Mitsubishi Electric’s MELSEC-A programmable logic controller
(PLC). Communication is carried out through a computer link unit (Model A1SJ71C24-R4 or
A1SJ71UC24-R4).
• Tasks involved in programming:

Data are read from and written to three UT100 series controllers connected to the PLC.
• Tasks involved in reading:
The four data items—PV error information (ERROR), measured input value (PV), current target
setpoint (CSP) and control output value (OUT)—are read into the PLC’s registers at regular
intervals (one second).
• Tasks involved in writing:
The target setpoints of the three UT100 series controllers having addresses 1, 2 and 3 are changed
from the PLC. These changes are made through the PLC’s contact inputs.

Chapter 5 MODBUS Communication
5. MODBUS Communication
5.1 Overview
Personal computer
Figure 5-1 Connection of Slaves in MODBUS Communication
Use of the MODBUS communication enables UT100 Series to communicate with a wide variety of
devices such as PCs. In this communication, you use such device to read/write data from/into D
registers, (internal registers) of the UT100 Series.
Hereafter, PCs are generally called “host devices.”
See Also
Chapter 6 or 8 for information on the D registers.
For the MODBUS communication of the UT100 Series, we provide the ASCII mode (ASCII system)
and RTU mode (binary system) for the communication mode.
Table 5-1 ASCII and RTU Modes

Item ASCII Mode RTU Mode
Number of data bits 7 bits (ASCII) 8 bits (binary)
Message start mark : (colon) Not necessary
Message end mark CR + LF Not necessary

Length of message (Note 1) 2N + 1 N
Data time intervals 1 second or less 24 bit time or less (Note 2)
Error detection Longitudinal redundancy check: LRC Cyclic redundancy check: CRC-16
Note 1: When the length of a message in the RTU mode, it is assumed to be “N.”
Note 2: When the communication rate is 9600 bps, 1 9600 24 sec or less.
In the MODBUS communication, a host device identifies each UT100 Series with a communication
address of 1 to 99. Some of the commands used let you specify broadcast that requires no address
numbers. For more information on broadcast specifications, see subsection 5.2.2.
IM 05C01E12-10E 5-1
5.1.1 Configuration of Message
Messages sent from a host device to UT100 Series, consists of the following elements.
Element Start of Address Function Data Error End of

Message Number Code Check Message
Mark (ADR) Mark
Number of bytes in RTU mode None 1 1 2n 2 None
Number of bytes in ASCII mode 1 2 2 4n 2 2
(1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6)
(1) Start of Message Mark

This mark indicates the start of a message. Note that only ASCII mode requires the colon.
(2) Address Number (1 to 99)

Address numbers are used by host devices to identify the UT100 Series at the communication destina-
tion. (These numbers are identification numbers specific to individual UT100 Series.)
(3) Function Code (See subsection 3.2.1, List of Function Codes)

The function code specifies a command (function code) from the host device.
(4) Data
This element specifies D register numbers, the number of D registers, parameter values, and so on in
accordance with the function code.
(5) Error Check

In RTU mode Carried out by the cyclic redundancy check (CRC-16) system.
In ASCII mode Carried out by the longitudinal redundancy check (LRC) system.
(6) End of Message Mark

This mark indicates the end of a message.
Note that only ASCII mode requires CR + LF
● Message format for communication

Example: When setting the target setpoint “50.0” to a UT100 Series, the host device sends message
data (01F4) into a value of “500” converted into hexadecimals not including the decimal point (thus,
this is true for sending both 5.00 or 500).
Message data in the higher-level device: hexadecimal value of 500 (01F4)
Message data: 01F4 Response data from UT100 Series: 01F4
UT100 Series side

* The position of the decimal point for “500” is determined by the DP (position of decimal point) parameter of the UT100 Series.
5-2 IM 05C01E12-10E
5.2 Communication with Host Device

The specification of D registers for a message using commercially available SCADA or the like and
specification of D registers for a message in customer-created communication programs are different
from simple specification of D register numbers. Thus, care should be taken.
(1) When using commercially available SCADA or the like, specify the D register numbers by
changing them into reference numbers. D register numbers whose “D” leading character is replaced
with “4,” are treated as reference numbers. (When using a DDE server or others, specify these
reference numbers.)
(2) For communication programs created by the customer, specify registers using the hexadecimal
numbers of values that are obtained by subtracting “40001” from the reference numbers. (Thus,
hexadecimal numbers are those to be specified.)
Example: To specify target setpoint “D0120”:
(1) For a message using commercially available SCADA or the like, specify reference number
“40120.”
(2) For a message in a customer-created communication program, specify the hexadecimal number, or
0077, of a value (0119) obtained by subtracting 40001 from the reference number.
5.2.1 List of Function Codes
Function codes are command words used by the host device to obtain the D register information of
UT100 Series.
Table 5-2 List of Function Codes
Code Number Function Description
03 Reads data from multiple D registers. Capable of reading data from a maximum of 32 successive D
registers between D0001 and D0421.
06 Writes data into D register. Capable of writing data to one D register between D0101 and
D0421.
08 Performs loop back test. See subsection 5.2.3, “Function Codes.
16 Writes data into multiple D registers. Capable of writing data into a maximum of 32 successive D
registers between D0101 and D0421.
• A write using the function code is not possible for read-only or disabled D registers.
• Broadcast can be specified for function codes 06 and 16 only.

5.2.2 Specifying Broadcast
The personal computer sends data to all of the substations at one time.
Note: The substations do not give any response.

Figure 5-2 Specifying Broadcast
Broadcast is a feature in which all connected UT100 Series can receive the command concerned.
Specifying the number in Table 5-3 at the location of the address number in a message enables the
host device to write data into the D registers of all UT100 Series.

6. Functions and Usage of D Registers

(UT130, UT150/UT152/UT155)
6.1 Overview of D Registers

This section explains the functions and usage of D registers.
The D registers store the parameter data, flag data and process data that are handled by UT100 Series
controller. By connecting UT100 Series controller to host device equipment capable of PC link
communication, Ladder communication or MODBUS communication, you can readily use these
internal data items by reading from or writing to the D registers.
Using the D registers, you can perform:
• Centralized control using host device
• Data exchange by reading/writing using host device

(D Register Map Tables)
This section explains how to read the “D Register Map” tables in this chapter. In the example shown
below, the number in the leftmost column denotes (1) D register number. The five-digit number in the
column on the immediate right of the leftmost column represents (2) Reference number for MODBUS
communication. The number in the column third from left is (3) Register number (hexadecimal) for
the MODBUS communication program. Each register code name in the D Register Map tables
represents register name of specific process data item, operating parameter, setup parameter or other
data items such as flags. For details on the operating and setup parameters, see UT100 Series Tem-
perature Controller user’s manual (IM 05C01E02-01E / IM 05C01E12-01E).

6.4.1 D Register Contents
D registers are designed to indicate two or more events, such as errors and parameter data, using
combinations of bits within them. If any of the events shown in the following tables occurs, the
corresponding bit is set to 1. The bit remains set to 0 if the event has not occurred yet. Note that bits
in blank fields are not in use.
● D0001 Register-Bit Configuration of STATUS (Input Error)

15 0
● D0002 Register - PV (Measured input value)

● D0003 Register - CSP (Currently used target Setpoint)
● D0004 Register - OUT (Control output)
• For PID computations, this register, for example, takes the value “750” if the result of computa-
tion is 75%.
• For on-off computations, this register contains a reading of 0 (0.0%) for the OFF state or 1000
(100.0%) for the ON state.
● D0005 Register - HOUT (Heating-side control output)
● D0006 Register - COUT (Cooling-side control output)
● D0007 Register - HC (Heater current measured value)
● D0008 and D0009 Registers - T1 and T2 (Remaining Time Display)
These registers give the readings of the amount of time, in units of seconds, remaining until the
setpoints in the A1 and A2 registers are reached.
Example: The reading for one hour, 38 minutes and 57 seconds is given as 5,937 seconds.
(These registers are only effective if “23” or “24” is selected for the AL1 and AL2 registers.)
● D0010 Register - SPNO (Target setpoint number selection)
● D0101 and D0102 Registers - A1 and A2 (Alarm or Timer Setpoints)
If either “23” or “24” is set in the AL1 and AL2 registers, the value is used as the setpoint for the
timer in units of seconds. If a value other than “23” and “24” is set, it is used as the alarm setpoint.
● D0108 Register - MR (Manual Reset)
When using the UT130’s heating/cooling type, UT100 controller doesn’t show the decimal point for
display. But the decimal point is effective via communication.
For example takes the value “0250” if the result is 25%.
6-4 IM 05C01E12-10E
● D0120 Register - CSP1 (Target Setpoint for Writing via Communication Only)
This target setpoint is for writing via communication only and is effective only if the SP1 register is
selected. Use this D register when you want to have access to target setpoints by means of commu-
nication. The same value written in this D register is also written in D0114:SP1. This register isn’t
backup for power failure.

7. Functions and Usage of I Relays

(UT130, UT150/UT152/UT155)
This chapter explains the functions and usage of the I relays.
The I relays contain information on errors in UT100 Series controller, as well as the controller’s alarm
statuses. By connecting the UT100 Series controller to host device (via PC communication link), you
can read these internal data items from the I relays to use for your own particular purpose. (Note that
most of the I relays have the same functions as the D registers.)
7.1 Status I Relays

The following table summarizes how the on-off status I relays are classified.
I Relay No. Data Category Description Remarks

1 to 16 On-off Error information (same as data in the D0001 Information stored in each group of these
statuses register) I relays is represented by the four sets of
binary codes, from 0000 (0 in the
decimal system) to 1000 (8 in the
decimal system), which are formed by
17 to 48 Read/Write User area (Data can be written to or read from each combination of four I relays. The
the range of I relays) lowest-numbered I relay in each set
signifies the LSB of the four bits.
NOTE
The I relays numbered 1 to 16 store on-off status information. In normal operation, this area can be
accessed to read the on-off status.
When specifying an I relay number via communication, begin the number with an upper-case letter I.
For example, type I0014 to specify the RJCERR.st relay (I relay numbered 14).

8.4.1 D Register Contents

D registers are designed to indicate two or more events, such as errors and parameter data, using
combinations of bits within them. If any of the events shown in the following tables occurs, the
corresponding bit is set to 1. The bit remains set to 0 if the event has not occurred yet. Note that bits
in blank fields are not in use.
● D0001 Register-Bit Configuration of STATUS (Input Error)

● D0003 Register - CSP (Currently used target Setpoint)
● D0004 Register - OUT (Control output)
• For PID computations, this register, for example, takes the value “750” if the result of computa-
tion is 75%.
• For on-off computations, this register contains a reading of 0 (0.0%) for the OFF state or 1000
(100.0%) for the ON state.
● D0010 Register - SEGNO (Program segment number selection)
● D0011 Register-bit Configuration of MODE (Operating mode)

Chapter 9 Functions and Usage of I Relays (UP150)
9. Functions and Usage of I Relays

(UP150)
This chapter explains the functions and usage of the I relays.
The I relays contain information on errors in UP150 controller, as well as the controller’s alarm
statuses. By connecting the UP150 controller to host device (via PC communication link), you can
read these internal data items from the I relays to use for your own particular purpose. (Note that
most of the I relays have the same functions as the D registers.)
9.1 Status I Relays

The following table summarizes how the on-off status I relays are classified.
I Relay No. Data Category Description Remarks

1 to 16 On-off Error information (same as data in the D0001 Information stored in each group of
statuses register) these I relays is represented by the four
sets of binary codes, from 0000 (0 in the
decimal system) to 1000 (8 in the
decimal system), which are formed by
Read/Write each combination of four I relays. The
lowest-numbered I relay in each set
signifies the LSB of the four bits.
49 to 54 On-off Operation mode (same as D0011)

statuses
NOTE
The on-off status I relays numbered 1 to 16 store on-off status information. In normal operation, this
area can be accessed to read the on-off status.
When specifying an I relay number via communication, begin the number with an upper-case letter I.
For example, type I0014 to specify the RJCERR.st relay (I relay numbered 14).
