DL205 System Components

1 The DL205 family is a versatile product line that provides a wide variety of features in an
extremely compact package. The CPUs are small, but offer many instructions normally only
2 found in larger, more expensive systems. The modular design also offers more flexibility in the
fast moving industry of control systems. The following is a summary of the major DL205
system components.
3
CPUs
4 There are four feature-enhanced CPUs in this product line, the DL230, DL240, DL250–1
and DL260. All CPUs include built-in communication ports. Each CPU offers a large
amount of program memory, a substantial instruction set and advanced diagnostics. The
5 DL250–1 features drum timers, floating–point math, 4 built-in PID loops with automatic
tuning and 2 bases of local expansion capability.
6 The DL260 features ASCII IN/OUT and extended MODBUS communications, table and
trigonometric instructions, 16 PID loops with autotuning and up to 4 bases of local
7 expansion. Details of these CPU features and more are covered in Chapter 3, CPU
Specifications and Operation.

8 Bases
Four base sizes are available: 3, 4, 6 and 9 slot. The DL205 PLCs use bases that can be
expanded. The part numbers for these bases end with –1. These bases have a connector for
9 local expansion located on the right end of the base. They can serve in local, local expansion
and remote I/O configurations. All bases include a built-in power supply. The bases with the
10 –1 suffix can replace existing bases without a suffix if expansion is required.
I/O Configuration
11 The DL230 and DL240 CPUs can support up to 256 local I/O points. The DL250–1 can
support up to 768 local I/O points with up to two expansion bases. The DL260 can support
12 up to 1280 local I/O points with up to four expansion bases. These points can be assigned as
input or output points. The DL240, DL250–1 and DL260 systems can also be expanded by
adding remote I/O points. The DL250–1 and DL260 provide a built–in master for remote
13 I/O networks. The I/O configurations are explained in Chapter 4, System Design and
Configuration. I/O Modules
14 I/O Modules
The DL205 has some of the most powerful modules in the industry. A complete range of
A discrete modules which support 24 VDC, 110/220 VAC and up to 10A relay outputs (subject
to derating) are offered. The analog modules provide 12 and 16 bit resolution and several
B selections of input and output signal ranges (including bipolar). Several specialty and
communications modules are also available.

Programming Methods
There are two programming methods available for the DL205 CPUs, RLL (Relay Ladder 1
Logic) and RLLPLUS (Stage Programming). Both the DirectSOFT5 programming package and
the handheld programmer support RLL and Stage. 2
DirectSOFT Programming for Windows.
The DL205 can be programmed with one of the most advanced programming packages in 3
the industry ––DirectSOFT5. DirectSOFT5 is a Windows-based software package that
supports many Windows features you already know, such as cut and paste between
applications, point and click editing, viewing and editing multiple application programs at
4
the same time, etc. DirectSOFT5 universally supports the DirectLOGIC CPU families. This
means you can use the same DirectSOFT5 package to program DL05, DL06, DL105, 5
DL205, DL305, DL405 or any new CPUs we may add to our product line. There is a
separate manual that discusses the DirectSOFT5 programming software which is included
with your software package.
6
Handheld Programmer
All DL205 CPUs have a built-in programming port for use with the handheld programmer
7
(D2–HPP). The handheld programmer can be used to create, modify and debug your
application program. A separate manual that discusses the DL205 Handheld Programmer is 8
available.

Quick Start for PLC Validation and Programming

1 If you have experience using PLCs, or want to setup a quick example, this section is what you
want to use. This example is not intended to explain everything needed to start-up your
system. It is only intended to provide a general picture of what is needed to get your system
2 powered-up.
Step 1: Unpack the DL205 Equipment
3 Unpack the DL205 equipment and verify you have the parts necessary to build this
demonstration system. The minimum parts needed are as follows:
4 • Base
• CPU
5 • A discrete input module such as a D2–16ND3–2 DC or a F2–08SIM input simulator module
• A discrete output module such as a D2–16TD1–2 DC
6 • *Power cord
• *Hook up wire
7 • *One or more toggle switches (if not using the input simulator module)
• *A screwdriver, blade or Phillips type
8 *These items are not supplied with your PLC.
You will need at least one of the following programming options:
9 • DirectSOFT5 Programming Software, DirectSOFT5 Manual, and a programming cable
(connects the CPU to a personal computer), or
10 • D2–HPP Handheld Programmer and the Handheld Programmer Manual.

Step 2: Install the CPU and I/O Modules

Insert the CPU and I/O into the base. The CPU
must be inserted into the first slot of the base
(next to the power supply).
1
• Each unit has a plastic retaining clip at the top and
bottom. Slide the retainer clips to the out position
2
before installing the module.
• With the unit square to the base, slide it in using
Retaining Clips
3
the upper and lower guides. CPU must reside in first slot!
• Gently push the unit back until it is firmly seated in the backplane. 4
• Secure the unit to the base by pushing in the retainer clips.
Placement of discrete, analog and relay modules are not critical and may go in any slot in any 5
base, however for this example, install the output module in the slot next to the CPU and the
input module in the next. Limiting factors for other types of modules are discussed in
Chapter 4, System Design and Configuration. You must also make sure you do not exceed
6
the power budget for each base in your system configuration. Power budgeting is also
discussed in Chapter 4. 7
Step 3: Remove Terminal Strip Access Cover
Remove the terminal strip cover. It is a small 8
strip of clear plastic that is located on the base
power supply.
Lift off
9
Step 4: Add I/O Simulation
To finish this quick start exercise or study other examples in this manual, you will need to 10
install an input simulator module (or wire an input switch as shown below), and add an
output module. Using an input simulator is the quickest way to get physical inputs for
checking out the system or a new program. To monitor output status, any discrete output
11
module will work.

module covers. Do not apply power at this time.

3 Step 6: Connect the Programmer
Either connect the programming cable connected to
4 a computer loaded with DirectSOFT Programming
Software or a D2-HPP Handheld Programmer
5 (comes with programming cable) to the top port of
the CPU.

6 Step 7: Switch On the System Power

Apply power to the system and ensure the PWR
indicator on the CPU is on. If not, remove power
7 from the system, check all wiring and refer to the troubleshooting section in Chapter 9 for
assistance.
8 Step 8: Enter the Program
Slide the switch on the CPU to the STOP position (250–1 / 260 only) and then back to the
9 TERM position. This puts the CPU in the program mode and allows access to the CPU
program. Edit a DirectSOFT program using the relay ladder diagram below and load it into
10 the PLC. If using an HPP, the PGM indicator should be illuminated on the HPP. Enter the
following keystrokes on the HPP:

11 NOTE: It is not necessary for you to configure the I/O for this system since the DL205 CPUs automatically
examine any installed modules and establish the correct configuration.

Step 6: Review the Programming Concepts

The DL205 provides four main approaches to solving the application program, including the
1 PID loop task depicted in the next figure.
• RLL diagram style programming is the best tool for solving boolean logic and general CPU register/
2 accumulator manipulation. It includes dozens of instructions, which will augment drums, stages
and loops.
• The DL250-1 and DL260 have four timer/event drum types, each with up to 16 steps. They offer
3 both time and/or event-based step transitions. Drums are best for a repetitive process based on a
single series of steps.
4 • Stage programming, called RLLPLUS, is based on state-transition diagrams. Stages divide the ladder
program into sections which correspond to the states in a flow chart of your process.

5 • The DL260 PID loop operation uses setup tables to configure 16 loops. The DL250-1 PID loop
operation uses setup to configure 4 loops. Features include: auto tuning, alarms, SP ramp/soak
generation and more.

Safety Guidelines
1
NOTE: Products with CE marks perform their required functions safely and adhere to relevant standards as
2 specified by CE directives, provided they are used according to their intended purpose and that the
instructions in this manual are adhered to. The protection provided by the equipment may be impaired if
this equipment is used in a manner not specified in this manual. A listing of our international affiliates is
3 available on our Web site: http://www.automationdirect.com

4 WARNING: Providing a safe operating environment for personnel and equipment is your responsibility
and should be your primary goal during system planning and installation. Automation systems can fail
and may result in situations that can cause serious injury to personnel and/or damage equipment. Do
5 not rely on the automation system alone to provide a safe operating environment. Sufficient emergency
circuits should be provided to stop either partially or totally the operation of the PLC or the controlled
machine or process. These circuits should be routed outside the PLC in the event of controller failure,
6 so that independent and rapid shutdown are available. Devices, such as “mushroom” switches or end
of travel limit switches, should operate motor starter, solenoids, or other devices without being
7 processed by the PLC. These emergency circuits should be designed using simple logic with a
minimum number of highly reliable electromechanical components. Every automation application is
different, so there may be special requirements for your particular application. Make sure all national,
8 state, and local government requirements are followed for the proper installation and use of your
equipment.

9 Plan for Safety

The best way to provide a safe operating environment is to make personnel and equipment
10 safety part of the planning process. You should examine every aspect of the system to
determine which areas are critical to operator or machine safety.
11 If you are not familiar with PLC system installation practices, or your company does not have
established installation guidelines, you should obtain additional information from the
12 following sources.
• NEMA — The National Electrical Manufacturers Association, located in Washington,
13 D.C., publishes many different documents that discuss standards for industrial control
systems. You can order these publications directly from NEMA. Some of these include:
ICS 1, General Standards for Industrial Control and Systems
14 ICS 3, Industrial Systems
ICS 6, Enclosures for Industrial Control Systems
A • NEC — The National Electrical Code provides regulations concerning the installation and
use of various types of electrical equipment. Copies of the NEC Handbook can often be
B obtained from your local electrical equipment distributor or your local library.
• Local and State Agencies — many local governments and state governments have additional
C requirements above and beyond those described in the NEC Handbook. Check with your
local Electrical Inspector or Fire Marshall office for information.

Three Levels of Protection

The publications mentioned provide many ideas and requirements for system safety. At a
minimum, you should follow these regulations. Also, you should use the following
1
techniques, which provide three levels of system control.
• Emergency stop switch for disconnecting system power
2
• Mechanical disconnect for output module power
• Orderly system shutdown sequence in the PLC control program
3
4
Emergency Stops
It is recommended that emergency stop circuits be incorporated into the system for every
machine controlled by a PLC. For maximum safety in a PLC system, these circuits must not
5
be wired into the controller, but should be hardwired external to the PLC. The emergency
stop switches should be easily accessed by the operator and are generally wired into a master 6
control relay (MCR) or a safety control relay (SCR) that will remove power from the PLC
I/O system in an emergency. 7
MCRs and SCRs provide a convenient means for removing power from the I/O system
during an emergency situation. By de-energizing an MCR (or SCR) coil, power to the input
(optional) and output devices is removed. This event occurs when any emergency stop switch
8
opens. However, the PLC continues to receive power and operate even though all its inputs
and outputs are disabled. 9
The MCR circuit could be extended by placing a PLC fault relay (closed during normal PLC
operation) in series with any other emergency stop conditions. This would cause the MCR 10
circuit to drop the PLC I/O power in case of a PLC failure (memory error, I/O
communications error, etc.). 11

Emergency Power Disconnect

1 A properly rated emergency power disconnect should be used to power the PLC controlled
system as a means of removing the power from the entire control system. It may be necessary
to install a capacitor across the disconnect to protect against a condition known as “outrush”.
2 This condition occurs when the output Triacs are turned off by powering off the disconnect,
thus causing the energy stored in the inductive loads to seek the shortest distance to ground,
3 which is often through the Triacs.
After an emergency shutdown or any other type of power interruption, there may be
4 requirements that must be met before the PLC control program can be restarted. For
example, there may be specific register values that must be established (or maintained from
the state prior to the shutdown) before operations can resume. In this case, you may want to
5 use retentive memory locations, or include constants in the control program to insure a
known starting point.
6 Orderly System Shutdown
Ideally, the first level of fault detection is the PLC control
7 program, which can identify machine problems. Certain
shutdown sequences should be performed. The types of
8 problems are usually things such as jammed parts, etc.
that do not pose a risk of personal injury or equipment
damage.

5. The ground terminal on the DL205 base must be connected to a single point ground. Use copper
stranded wire to achieve a low impedance. Copper eye lugs should be crimped and soldered to the
ends of the stranded wire to ensure good surface contact. Remove anodized finishes and use copper 1
lugs and star washers at termination points. A general rule is to achieve a 0.1 ohm of DC resistance
between the DL205 base and the single point ground.
6. There must be a single point ground (i.e. copper bus bar) for all devices in the panel requiring an
2
earth ground return. The single point of ground must be connected to the panel ground
termination. The panel ground termination must be connected to earth ground. For this 3
connection you should use #12 AWG stranded copper wire as a minimum. Minimum wire sizes,
color coding, and general safety practices should comply with appropriate electrical codes and
standards for your region. A good common ground reference (Earth ground) is essential for proper 4
operation of the DL205. There are several methods of providing an adequate common ground
reference, including: 5
a) Installing a ground rod as close to the panel as possible.
b) Connection to incoming power system ground. 6
7. Properly evaluate any installations where the ambient temperature may approach the lower or
upper limits of the specifications. Place a temperature probe in the panel, close the door and
operate the system until the ambient temperature has stabilized. If the ambient temperature is not 7
within the operating specification for the DL205 system, measures such as installing a
cooling/heating source must be taken to get the ambient temperature within the DL205 operating
specifications.
8
8. Device mounting bolts and ground braid termination bolts should be #10 copper bolts or
equivalent. Tapped holes instead of nut–bolt arrangements should be used whenever possible. To 9
ensure good contact on termination areas impediments such as paint, coating or corrosion should
be removed in the area of contact.
9. The DL205 system is designed to be powered by 110/220 VAC, 24 VDC, or 125 VDC normally
10
available throughout an industrial environment. Electrical power in some areas where the PLCs are
installed is not always stable and storms can cause power surges. Due to this, powerline filters are 11
recommended for protecting the DL205 PLCs from power surges and EMI/RFI noise. The
Automation Powerline Filter, for use with 120 VAC and 240 VAC, 1–5 Amps, is an excellent
choice (can be located at www.automationdirect.com), however, you can use a filter of your choice.
12
These units install easily between the power source and the PLC.
Enclosures 13
Your selection of a proper enclosure is important to ensure safe and proper operation of your
DL205 system. Applications of DL205 systems vary and may require additional features. The 14
minimum considerations for enclosures include:
• Conformance to electrical standards A
• Protection from the elements in an industrial environment
• Common ground reference B
• Maintenance of specified ambient temperature
• Access to equipment C
• Security or restricted access
• Sufficient space for proper installation and maintenance of equipment D

Using Mounting Rails

The DL205 bases can also be secured to the cabinet by using mounting rails. You should use
rails that conform to DIN EN standard 50 022. Refer to our catalog for a complete line of
1
DIN rail, DINnectors and DIN rail mounted apparatus. These rails are approximately 35mm
high, with a depth of 7.5mm. If you mount the base on a rail, you should also consider using 2
end brackets on each end of the rail. The end brackets help keep the base from sliding
horizontally along the rail. This helps minimize the possibility of accidentally pulling the
wiring loose.
3
If you examine the bottom of the base, you’ll notice small retaining clips. To secure the base
to a DIN rail, place the base onto the rail and gently push up on the retaining clips. The clips
4
lock the base onto the rail.
To remove the base, pull down on the retaining clips, lift up on the base slightly, and pull it 5

I/O Wiring Strategies

1 The DL205 PLC system is very flexible and will work in many different wiring
configurations. By studying this section before actual installation, you can probably find the
2 best wiring strategy for your application. This will help to lower system cost, wiring errors,
and avoid safety problems.
3 PLC Isolation Boundaries
PLC circuitry is divided into three main regions separated by isolation boundaries, shown in
4 the drawing below. Electrical isolation provides safety, so that a fault in one area does not
damage another. A powerline filter will provide isolation between the power source and the
power supply. A transformer in the power supply provides magnetic isolation between the
5 primary and secondary sides. Opto-couplers provide optical isolation in Input and Output
circuits. This isolates logic circuitry from the field side, where factory machinery connects.
6 Note the discrete inputs are isolated from the discrete outputs, because each is isolated from
the logic side. Isolation boundaries protect the operator interface (and the operator) from
power input faults or field wiring faults. When wiring a PLC, it is extremely important to
7 avoid making external connections that connect logic side circuits to any other.

Powering I/O Circuits with the Auxiliary Supply

In some cases, using the built-in auxiliary +24VDC supply can result in a cost savings for
your control system. It can power combined loads up to 300mA. Be careful not to exceed the
1
current rating of the supply. If you are the system designer for your application, you may be
able to select and design in field devices which can use the +24VDC auxiliary supply. 2
All AC powered and 125VDC DL205 bases feature the internal auxiliary supply. If input
devices AND output loads need +24VDC power, the auxiliary supply may be able to power 3
both circuits as shown in the following diagram.

Powering I/O Circuits Using Separate Supplies

1 In most applications it will be necessary to power the input devices from one power source,
and to power output loads from another source. Loads often require high-energy AC power,
while input sensors use low-energy DC. If a machine operator is likely to come in close
2 contact with input wiring, then safety reasons also require isolation from high-energy output
circuits. It is most convenient if the loads can use the same power source as the PLC, and the
3 input sensors can use the auxiliary supply, as shown to the left in the figure below.
If the loads cannot be powered from the PLC supply, then a separate supply must be used as
4 shown to the right in the figure below.

Some applications will use the PLC external power source to also power the input circuit.

A worst-case scenario, from a cost and complexity viewpoint, is an application which requires

Sinking / Sourcing Concepts

Before going further in the study of wiring strategies, you must have a solid understanding of
“sinking” and “sourcing” concepts. Use of these terms occurs frequently in input or output
1
circuit discussions. It is the goal of this section to make these concepts easy to understand,
further ensuring your success in installation. First the following short definitions are provided, 2
followed by practical applications.
Sinking = provides a path to supply ground (–) 3
Sourcing = provides a path to supply source (+)
First you will notice these are only associated with DC circuits and not AC, because of the 4
reference to (+) and (–) polarities. Therefore, sinking and sourcing terminology only applies
to DC input and output circuits. Input and output points that are sinking only or sourcing
only can conduct current in only one direction. This means it is possible to connect the
5
external supply and field device to the I/O point with current trying to flow in the wrong
direction, and the circuit will not operate. However, you can successfully connect the supply 6
and field device every time by understanding “sourcing” and “sinking”.
For example, the figure to the right depicts a “sinking” 7
input. To properly connect the external supply, you PLC
will have to connect it so the input provides a path to
ground (–). Start at the PLC input terminal, follow
Input
(sinking) 8

through the input sensing circuit, exit at the common
terminal, and connect the supply (–) to the common –
Input
Sensing 9
terminal. By adding the switch, between the supply (+) Common
and the input, the circuit has been completed .
Current flows in the direction of the arrow when the
10
switch is closed.

four input points which share a common

require only five terminals instead of eight.
10 NOTE: In the circuit above, the current in the common path is 4 times any channel’s input current when all
inputs are energized. This is especially important in output circuits, where heavier gauge wire is
11 sometimes necessary on commons.

Connecting DC I/O to “Solid State” Field Devices

In the previous section on Sourcing and Sinking concepts, the DC I/O circuits were
explained to sometimes only allow current to flow one way. This is also true for many of the
1
field devices which have solid-state (transistor) interfaces. In other words, field devices can
also be sourcing or sinking. When connecting two devices in a series DC circuit, one must be 2
wired as sourcing and the other as sinking.
Solid State Input Sensors 3
Several DL205 DC input modules are flexible because they detect current flow in either
direction, so they can be wired as either sourcing or sinking. In the following circuit, a field 4
device has an open-collector NPN transistor output. It sinks current from the PLC input
point, which sources current. The power supply can be the +24 auxiliary supply or another
supply (+12 VDC or +24VDC), as long as the input specifications are met.

In the next example a PLC sinking DC output point is connected to the sinking input of a
field device. This is a little tricky, because both the PLC output and field device input are
1 sinking type. Since the circuit must have one sourcing and one sinking device, a sourcing
capability needs to be added to the PLC output by using a pull-up resistor. In the circuit
below, a Rpull-up is connected from the output to the DC output circuit power input.

NOTE 1: DO NOT attempt to drive a heavy load (>25 mA) with this pull-up method
7 NOTE 2: Using the pull-up resistor to implement a sourcing output has the effect of inverting the output
point logic. In other words, the field device input is energized when the PLC output is OFF, from a ladder
8 logic point of view. Your ladder program must comprehend this and generate an inverted output. Or, you
may choose to cancel the effect of the inversion elsewhere, such as in the field device.

9 It is important to choose the correct value of Rpull-up. In order to do so, you need to know
the nominal input current to the field device (Iinput) when the input is energized. If this value
is not known, it can be calculated as shown (a typical value is 15 mA). Then use Iinput and
10 the voltage of the external supply to compute Rpull-up. Then calculate the power Ppull-up (in
watts), in order to size Rpull-up properly.

Of course, the easiest way to drive a sinking input field device as shown below is to use a DC

Relay Output Guidelines

Several output modules in the DL205 I/O family feature relay outputs: D2–04TRS,
D2–08TR, D2–12TR, D2–08CDR, F2–08TR and F2–08TRS. Relays are best for the 1
following applications:
• Loads that require higher currents than the solid-state outputs can deliver 2
• Cost-sensitive applications
• Some output channels need isolation from other outputs (such as when some loads require different
voltages than other loads)
3
Some applications in which NOT to use relays: 4
• Loads that require currents under 10 mA
• Loads which must be switched at high speed or heavy duty cycle 5
Relay outputs in the DL205 output modules are available in
two contact arrangements, shown to the right. The Form A
Relay with Form A contacts 6
type, or SPST (single pole, single throw) type is normally open
and is the simplest to use. The Form C type, or SPDT (single 7
pole, double throw) type has a center contact which moves and
a stationary contact on either side. This provides a normally 8
closed contact and a normally open contact.
Some relay output module’s relays share common terminals,
which connect to the wiper contact in each relay of the bank.
9
Relay with Form C contacts
Other relay modules have relays which are completely isolated
from each other. In all cases, the module drives the relay coil 10
when the corresponding output point is on.

a relay contact. When a relay contact is closed it “bounces”, which energizes and de-energizes
the coil until the “bouncing” stops. The transient voltages generated are much larger in 13
amplitude than the supply voltage, especially with a DC supply voltage.
When switching a DC-supplied inductive load the full supply voltage is always present when 14
the relay contact opens (or “bounces”). When switching an AC-supplied inductive load there
are two (2) points when the voltage is zero (0) in one complete cycle of a sine wave; therefore,
there are two (2) chances in 60 (60 Hz) or 50 (50 Hz) to stop the current flow at a zero
A
crossover point. If current flow isn’t stopped, the relay contact will open (or “bounce”). If the
voltage is not zero when the relay contact opens there is energy stored in the inductor that is B
released when the voltage to the inductor is suddenly removed. This release of energy is the
cause of the transient voltages.
When inductive load devices (motors, motor starters, interposing relays, solenoids, valves,
C
etc.) are controlled with relay contacts, it is recommended that a surge suppression device be
connected directly across the coil of the field device. If the inductive device has plug-type D
connectors, the suppression device can be installed on the terminal block of the relay output.

Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS or transorb) provide the best surge and transient
suppression of AC and DC powered coils, providing the fastest response with the smallest
1 overshoot.
Metal Oxide Varistors (MOV) provide the next best surge and transient suppression of AC
2 and DC powered coils.
For example, the waveform in the figure below shows the energy released when opening a
3 contact switching a 24 VDC solenoid. Notice the large voltage spike.

Relay contacts wear according to the amount of relay switching, amount of spark created at
the time of open or closure, and presence of airborne contaminants. 1
However, there are some steps you can take to help prolong the life of relay contacts:
• Switch the relay on or off only when the application requires it. 2
• If you have the option, switch the load on or off at a time when it will draw the least current.
• Take measures to suppress inductive voltage spikes from inductive DC loads such as contactors and 3
solenoids (circuit given below).

Adding external contact protection may extend relay life beyond the number of contact
cycles listed in the specification tables for relay modules. High current inductive loads such as
clutches, brakes, motors, direct-acting solenoid valves, and motor starters will benefit the
9
most from external contact protection.
The RC network must be located close to the relay module output connector. To find the 10
values for the RC snubber network, first determine the voltage across the contacts when open,
and the current through them when closed. If the load supply is AC, then convert the current 11
and voltage values to peak values:
Now you are ready to calculate values for R and C, according to the formulas: 12

For example, suppose a relay contact drives a load at 120VAC, 1/2 A. Since this example has
an AC power source, first calculate the peak values:
1
Ipeak = Irms x 1.414, = 0.5 x 1.414 = 0.707 Amperes
2 Vpeak = Vrms x 1.414 = 120 x 1.414 = 169.7 Volts
3 Now, find the values of R and C,:

x= 1 + = 1.29 R () = = 26 , 1/2 W, ± 5%
10 x 0.707 1.29
8 169.7

If the contact is switching a DC inductive load, add a diode across the load as near to load
9 coil as possible. When the load is energized the diode is reverse-biased (high impedance).
When the load is turned off, energy stored in its coil is released in the form of a negative-
10 going voltage spike. At this moment the diode is forward-biased (low impedance) and shunts
the energy to ground. This protects the relay contacts from the high voltage arc that would
occur as the contacts are opening.
11 For best results, follow these guidelines in using a noise suppression diode:
12 • DO NOT use this circuit with an AC power supply.
• Place the diode as close to the inductive field device as possible.
13 • Use a diode with a peak inverse voltage rating (PIV) at least 100 PIV, 3A forward current or
larger. Use a fast-recovery type (such as Schottky type). DO NOT use a small-signal diode
such as 1N914, 1N941, etc.
14 • Be sure the diode is in the circuit correctly before operation. If installed backwards, it short-
circuits the supply when the relay energizes.

Slot Numbering 1
The DL205 bases each provide different numbers of slots for use with the I/O modules. You
may notice the bases refer to 3-slot, 4-slot, etc. One of the slots is dedicated to the CPU, so 2
you always have one less I/O slot. For example, you have five I/O slots with a 6-slot base. The
I/O slots are numbered 0 – 4. The CPU slot always contains a PLC CPU or other CPU–slot
controller and is not numbered.

Special Placement Considerations for Analog Modules

1 In most cases, the analog modules can be placed in any slot. However, the placement can also
depend on the type of CPU you are using and the other types of modules installed to the left
of the analog modules. If you’re using a DL230 CPU (or a DL240 CPU with firmware earlier
2 than V1.4) you should check the DL205 Analog I/O Manual for any possible placement
restrictions related to your particular module. You can order the DL205 Analog I/O Manual
3 by ordering part number D2–ANLG–M.

12 Color Coding of I/O Modules
The DL205 family of I/O modules have a color coding scheme to help you quickly identify if
13 a module is either an input module, output module, or a specialty module. This is done
through a color bar indicator located on the front of each module. The color scheme is listed
below:

Wiring the Different Module Connectors

There are two types of module connectors for the DL205 I/O. Some modules have
normal screw terminal connectors. Other modules have connectors with recessed screws.
1
The recessed screws help minimize the risk of someone accidentally touching active
wiring. 2
Both types of connectors can be easily removed. If you examine the connectors closely,
you’ll notice there are squeeze tabs on the top and bottom. To remove the terminal 3
block, press the squeeze tabs and pull the terminal block away from the module.
We also have DIN rail mounted terminal blocks, DINnectors (refer to our catalog for a 4
complete listing of all available products). ZIPLinks come with special pre–assembled
cables with the I/O connectors installed and wired.
WARNING: For some modules, field device power may still be present on the terminal block even
5
though the PLC system is turned off. To minimize the risk of electrical shock, check all field
device power before you remove the connector. 6

I/O Wiring Checklist

Use the following guidelines when wiring the I/O modules in your system.
1 1. There is a limit to the size of wire the modules can accept. The table below lists the suggested
AWG for each module type. When making terminal connections, follow the suggested torque
2 values.
Module type Suggested AWG Range Suggested Torque
3 4 point 16* – 24 AWG 7.81 lb-inch (0.882 N•m)
8 point 16* – 24 AWG 7.81 lb-inch (0.882 N•m)

4 12 point
16 point
16* – 24 AWG
16* – 24 AWG
2.65 lb-in (0.3 N•m)
2.65 lb-in (0.3 N•m)

5 *NOTE: 16 AWG Type TFFN or Type MTW is recommended. Other types of 16 AWG may be acceptable,
but it really depends on the thickness and stiffness of the wire insulation. If the insulation is too thick or
stiff and a majority of the module’s I/O points are used, then the plastic terminal cover may not close
6 properly or the connector may pull away from the module. This applies especially for high temperature
thermoplastics such as THHN.
7 2. Always use a continuous length of wire, do not combine wires to attain a needed length.
3. Use the shortest possible wire length.
8 4. Use wire trays for routing where possible.
5. Avoid running wires near high energy wiring. Also, avoid running input wiring close to output
9 wiring where possible.
6. To minimize voltage drops when wires must run a long distance , consider using multiple wires for
10 the return line.
7. Avoid running DC wiring in close proximity to AC wiring where possible.
11 8. Avoid creating sharp bends in the wires.
9. To reduce the risk of having a module with a blown fuse, we suggest you add external fuses to your
12 I/O wiring. A fast blow fuse, with a lower current rating than the I/O module fuse can be added to
each common, or a fuse with a rating of slightly less than the maximum current per output point
can be added to each output. Refer to our catalog for a complete line of DINnectors, DIN rail
13 mounted fuse blocks.

DINnector External Fuses

14 (DIN rail mounted Fuses)

D
NOTE: For modules which have soldered or non-replaceable fuses, we recommend you return your module
to us and let us replace your blown fuse(s) since disassembling the module will void your warranty.

CPU Overview
1 The Central Processing Unit is the heart of the PLC. Almost all
system operations are controlled by the CPU, so it is important
2 that it is set-up and installed correctly. This chapter provides the
information needed to understand:
3 • The differences between the various models of CPUs
• The steps required to setup and install the CPU
4 General CPU Features
The DL230, DL240, DL250–1 and D2–260 are modular CPUs
5 which can be installed in 3, 4, 6, or 9 slot bases. All I/O modules
in the DL205 family will work with any of the CPUs. The
DL205 CPUs offer a wide range of processing power and program instructions. All offer RLL
6 and Stage program instructions (See Chapter 5). They also provide extensive internal
diagnostics that can be monitored from the application program or from an operator
7 interface.
DL230 CPU Features
8 The DL230 has 2.4K words of memory comprised of 2.0K of ladder memory and
approximately 400 words of V-memory (data registers). It has 92 different instructions
9 available for programming, and supports a maximum of 256 I/O points.
Program storage is in the factory-installed EEPROM. In addition to the EEPROM there is
also RAM on the CPU which will store system parameters, V-memory, and other data which
10 is not in the application program.
The DL230 provides one built-in RS-232 communication port, so you can easily connect a
11 handheld programmer or a personal computer without needing any additional hardware.
DL240 CPU Features
12 The DL240 has a maximum of 3.8K of memory comprised of 2.5K of ladder memory and
approximately 1.3K of V-memory (data registers). There are 129 instructions available for
13 program development and a maximum of 256 points local I/O and 896 points with remote
I/O are supported.
14 Program storage is in the factory-installed EEPROM. In addition to the EEPROM there is
also RAM on the CPU which will store system parameters, V-memory and other data which
is not in the application program.
A The DL240 has two communication ports. The top port is the same port configuration as the
DL230. The bottom port also supports the DirectNET protocol, so you can use the DL240
B in a DirectNET network. Since the port is RS-232, you must use an RS-232/RS-422
converter for multi-drop connections.

interfaces, and provides DirectNet and Modbus RTU Master/Slave connections.
6
DL260 CPU Features 7
The DL260 offers all the DL250–1 features, plus ASCII IN/OUT and expanded Modbus
instructions. It also supports up to 1280 local I/O points by using up to four local expansion
bases. It has a maximum of 30.4K of program memory comprised of 15.8K of ladder
8
memory (saved on flash memory) and 14.6K of V-memory (data registers). It also includes an
internal RISC–based microprocessor for greater processing power. The DL260 has 297 9
instructions. In addition to those in the DL250–1 instruction set, the DL260 instruction set
includes table instructions, trigonometric instructions and support for 16 PID loops. 10
The DL260 has a total of two built–in communications ports. The top port is identical to the
top port of the DL250–1. The bottom port is a 15–pin RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 port. It will

Selecting the Program Storage Media

1
Built-in EEPROM
 230 The DL230 and DL240 CPUs provide built-in EEPROM storage. This type of memory is
non-volatile and is not dependent on battery backup to retain the program. The EEPROM
2
 240 can be electrically reprogrammed without being removed from the CPU. You can also set
 250-1 Jumper 3, which will write protect the EEPROM. The jumper is set at the factory to allow 3
 260 changes to EEPROM. If you select write protection by changing the jumper position, you
cannot make changes to the program. 4
WARNING: Do NOT change Jumper 2. This is for factory test operations. If you change Jumper 2, the
CPU will not operate properly. 5
Jumper in position

9
EEPROM Sizes 10
The DL230 and DL240 CPUs use different sizes of EEPROMs. The CPUs come from the
factory with EEPROMs already installed. However, if you need extra EEPROMs, select one
that is compatible with the following part numbers.
11

12
DL240 Hitachi HN58C256P–20 32K byte (3Kw)

EEPROM Operations
There are many AUX functions specifically for use with an EEPROM in the Handheld 14
Programmer. This enables you to quickly and easily copy programs between a program
developed offline in the Handheld and the CPU. Also, you can erase EEPROMs, compare
them, etc. See the DL205 Handheld Programmer Manual for details on using these AUX
A
functions with the Handheld Programmer.
NOTE: If the instructions are supported in both CPUs and the program size is within the limits of the
B
DL230, you can move a program between the two CPUs. However, the EEPROM installed in the Handheld
Programmer must be the same size (or larger) than the CPU being used. For example, you could not install C
a DL240 EEPROM in the Handheld Programmer and download the program to a DL230. Instead, if the
program is within the size limits of the DL230, use a DL230 chip in the Handheld when you obtain the
program from the DL240.

Installing the CPU

1  230 The CPU must be installed in the first slot in the base (closest to the power supply). You
cannot install the CPU in any other slot. When inserting the CPU into the base, align the
 240 PC board with the grooves on the top and bottom of the base. Push the CPU straight into
2  250-1 the base until it is firmly seated in the backplane connector. Use the retaining clips to secure
 260 the CPU to the base.
3 WARNING: To minimize the risk of electrical shock, personal injury, or equipment damage, always
disconnect the system power before installing or removing any system component.

CPU Setup Information
Even if you have years of experience using PLCs, there are a few things you need to do before 12
you can start entering programs. This section includes some basic things, such as changing
the CPU mode, but it also includes some things that you may never have to use. Here’s a brief
list of the items that are discussed:
13
• Using Auxiliary Functions
• Clearing the program (and other memory areas)
14
• How to initialize system memory
• Setting retentive memory ranges
A
The following paragraphs provide the setup information necessary to get the CPU ready for
programming. They include setup instructions for either type of programming device you are B
using. The D2–HPP Handheld Programmer Manual provides the Handheld keystrokes
required to perform all of these operations. The DirectSOFT Manual provides a description C
of the menus and keystrokes required to perform the setup procedures via DirectSOFT.

7 Mode Switch Functions

The mode switch on the DL240, DL250–1 and DL260 CPUs provides positions for
8 enabling and disabling program changes in the CPU. Unless the mode switch is in the TERM
position, RUN and STOP mode changes will not be allowed by any interface device,
(handheld programmer, DirectSOFT programing package or operator interface). Programs
9 may be viewed or monitored but no changes may be made. If the switch is in the TERM
position and no program password is in effect, all operating modes as well as program access
10 will be allowed through the connected programming or monitoring device.
There are two ways to change the CPU mode.
11 • 1. Use the CPU mode switch to select the operating mode.
• 2. Place the CPU mode switch in the TERM position and use a programming device to change

The DL205 CPUs will normally power-up in the mode that it was in just prior to the power
interruption. For example, if the CPU was in Program Mode when the power was
disconnected, the CPU will power-up in Program Mode (see warning note below).
14
WARNING: Once the super capacitor has discharged, the system memory may not retain the previous
mode of operation. When this occurs, the PLC can power-up in either Run or Program Mode if the A
mode switch is in the term position. There is no way to determine which mode will be entered as the
startup mode. Failure to adhere to this warning greatly increases the risk of unexpected equipment
startup.
B
The mode which the CPU will power-up in is also determined by the state of System C
Memory bit B7633.13. If the bit is set and the Mode Switch is in the TERM position, the
CPU will power-up in RUN mode. If B7633.13 is not set with the Mode Switch in TERM
position, then the CPU will power-up in the state it was in when it was powered-down.

Using Battery Backup

1 An optional lithium battery is available to maintain the system RAM retentive memory when
the DL205 system is without external power. Typical CPU battery life is five years, which
2 includes PLC runtime and normal shutdown periods. However, consider installing a fresh
battery if your battery has not been changed recently and the system will be shut down for a
period of more than ten days.
3
NOTE: Before installing or replacing your CPU battery, back-up your V-memory and system parameters.
4 You can do this by using DirectSOFT to save the program, V-memory, and system parameters to
hard/floppy disk on a personal computer.

5 To install the D2–BAT CPU battery in DL230 or

DL240 CPUs:
6 1. Gently push the battery connector onto the circuit
board connector.
2. Push the battery into the retaining clip. Don’t use
7 excessive force. You may break the retaining clip.
3. Make a note of the date the battery was installed.

DL250-1 and DL260
9 -1 To install the D2–BAT–1 CPU battery in the DL250–1/DL260
CPUs: (#CR2354)
10 1. Press the retaining clip on the battery door down and swing the
battery door open.
2. Place the battery into the coin–type slot with the +, or larger, side
11 out.
3. Close the battery door making sure that it locks securely in place.
12 4. Make a note of the date the battery was installed.

13 WARNING: Do not attempt to recharge the battery or dispose of an old battery by fire. The battery may
explode or release hazardous materials.
14
Battery Backup
A The battery backup is available immediately after the battery has been installed in the DL205
CPUs. The battery low (BATT) indicator will turn on if the battery is less than 2.5VDC
(refer to the Status Indicator table on page 3-12). Special Relay 43 (SP43) will also be
B activated. The low battery indication is enabled by setting bit 12 of V7633 (B7633.12). If the
low battery feature is not desired, do not set bit V7633.12.
C The super capacitor will retain memory IF it is configured as retentive regardless of the state
of B7633.12. The battery will be the same, but for a much longer time.

Auxiliary Functions
Many CPU setup tasks involve the use of Auxiliary (AUX) Functions. The AUX Functions
perform many different operations, including clearing ladder memory, displaying the scan
1
time, copying programs to EEPROM in the handheld programmer, etc. They are divided into
categories that affect different system parameters. Appendix A provides a description of the 2
AUX functions.
You can access the AUX Functions from DirectSOFT or from the DL205 Handheld 3
Programmer. The manuals for those products provide step-by-step procedures for accessing
the AUX Functions. Some of these AUX Functions are designed specifically for the Handheld
Programmer setup, so they will not be needed (or available) with the DirectSOFT package.

Clearing an Existing Program

1 Before you enter a new program, you should always clear ladder memory. You can use AUX
Function 24 to clear the complete program.
2 You can also use other AUX functions to clear other memory areas.
AUX 23 — Clear Ladder Range

3 AUX 24 — Clear all Ladders

AUX 31 — Clear V-Memory

4 Initializing System Memory

The DL205 CPUs maintain system parameters in a memory area often referred to as the
5 “scratchpad”. In some cases, you may make changes to the system setup that will be stored in
system memory. For example, if you specify a range of Control Relays (CRs) as retentive,
these changes are stored. AUX 54 resets the system memory to the default values.
6 WARNING: You may never have to use this feature unless you want to clear any setup information that
is stored in system memory. Usually, you’ll only need to initialize the system memory if you are
7 changing programs and the old program required a special system setup. You can usually change from
program to program without ever initializing system memory. Remember, this AUX function will reset
all system memory. If you have set special parameters such as retentive ranges, etc., they will be
8 erased when AUX 54 is used. Make sure you that you have considered all ramifications of this
operation before you select it.
9 Setting the Clock and Calendar
The DL240, DL250–1 and DL260 also have a Clock/Calendar that can be used for many
10  230 purposes. If you need to use this feature there are also AUX functions available that allow you
 240 to set the date and time. For example, you would use AUX 52, Display/Change Calendar to
11  250-1 set the time and date with the Handheld Programmer. With DirectSOFT you would use the
 260 PLC Setup menu options using K–Sequence protocol only.
12 The CPU uses the following format to display the date and time.
• Date — Year, Month, Date, Day of week (0 – 6, Sunday thru
Handheld Programmer Display
13 Saturday)
• Time — 24 hour format, Hours, Minutes, Seconds
23:08:17 08/02/20
14 You can use the AUX function to change any component
of the date or time. However, the CPU will not automatically correct any discrepancy
between the date and the day of the week. For example, if you change the date to the 15th of
A the month and the 15th is on a Thursday, you will also have to change the day of the week
(unless the CPU already shows the date as Thursday). The day of the week can only be set
B using the handheld programmer.

Setting the CPU Network Address

 230 The DL240, DL250–1 and DL260 CPUs have built in DirectNet ports. You can use the
Handheld Programmer to set the network address for the port and the port communication
1
 240 parameters. The default settings are:
 250-1 • Station Address 1
2

settings for network operation.
Setting Retentive Memory Ranges
5
The DL205 CPUs provide certain ranges of retentive memory by default. The default ranges
are suitable for many applications, but you can change them if your application requires 6
additional retentive ranges or no retentive ranges at all. The default settings are:

You can use AUX 57 to set the retentive ranges. You can also use DirectSOFT menus to select
the retentive ranges.
11
WARNING: The DL205 CPUs do not come with a battery. The super capacitor will retain the values in
the event of a power loss, but only for a short period of time, depending on conditions. If the retentive

Using a Password
1 The DL205 CPUs allow you to use a password to help minimize the risk of unauthorized
program and/or data changes. Once you enter a password you can “lock” the CPU against
access. Once the CPU is locked you must enter the password before you can use a
2 programming device to change any system parameters.
You can select an 8-digit numeric password. The CPUs are shipped from the factory with a
3 password of 00000000. All zeros removes the password protection. If a password has been
entered into the CPU you cannot enter all zeros to remove it. Once you enter the correct
4 password, you can change the password to all zeros to remove the password protection. For
more information on passwords, see the appropriate appendix on auxiliary functions.
5 WARNING: Make sure you remember your password. If you forget your password you will not be able to
access the CPU. The CPU must be returned to the factory to have the password (along with the ladder
project) removed. It is the policy of AutomationDirect to require the memory of the PLC to be cleared
6 along with the password.

You can use the D2–HPP Handheld Programmer or

7 DirectSOFT to enter a password. The following
diagram shows how you can enter a password with the
8 Handheld Programmer.

13 There are three ways to lock the CPU once the password has been entered.
14 1. If the CPU power is disconnected, the CPU will be automatically locked against access.
2. If you enter the password with DirectSOFT, the CPU will be automatically locked against access
when you exit DirectSOFT.
A 3. Use AUX 83 to lock the CPU.
When you use DirectSOFT, you will be prompted for a password if the CPU has been
B locked. If you use the Handheld Programmer, you have to use AUX 82 to unlock the CPU.
Once you enter AUX 82, you will be prompted to enter the password.
C NOTE: The DL240, DL250–1 and DL260 CPUs offer multi–level passwords for even more
password protection of the ladder program. This allows password protection while not locking the
D communication port to an operator interface. The multi-level password can be invoked by creating a
password with an upper case “A” followed by seven numeric characters (e.g. A1234567).

CPU Operation
Achieving the proper control for your equipment or process requires a good understanding of 1

modules. The primary use for Program Mode is
2 to enter or change an application program.
You also use the program mode to set up CPU

retentive memory areas, etc. Download Program
4 You can use the mode switch on the DL250–1 and DL260 CPUs to select Program Mode
operation. Or, with the switch in TERM position, you can use a programming device such as
the Handheld Programmer to place the CPU in Program Mode.
5 Run Mode Operation
In Run Mode, the CPU executes the
6 application program, does PID calculations for Read Inputs
configured PID loops (DL250-1/DL260), and
7 updates the I/O system. You can perform many Read Inputs from Specialty I/O
operations during Run Mode. Some of these
8 include:

You can also edit the program during Run

A Mode. The Run Mode Edits are not “bumpless.” Instead, the CPU maintains the outputs in
their last state while it accepts the new program information. If an error is found in the new
B program, then the CPU will turn all the outputs off and enter the Program Mode.
WARNING: Only authorized personnel fully familiar with all aspects of the application should make
changes to the program. Changes during Run Mode become effective immediately. Make sure you

 Chapter 3: CPU Specifications and Operations

Read Inputs
The CPU reads the status of all inputs, then stores it in the image register. Input image
register locations are designated with an X followed by a memory location. Image register data
1
is used by the CPU when it solves the application program. Of course, an input may change
after the CPU has read the inputs. Generally, the CPU scan time is measured in milliseconds. 2
If you have an application that cannot wait until the next I/O update, you can use
Immediate Instructions. These do not use the status of the input image register to solve the
application program. The Immediate instructions immediately read the input status directly
3
from I/O modules. However, this lengthens the program scan since the CPU has to read the
I/O point status again. A complete list of the Immediate instructions is included in Chapter 4
Five.
Read Inputs from Specialty and Remote I/O _ _ _
5
After the CPU reads the inputs from the input
modules, it reads any input point data from any DL250–1/260 6
Specialty modules that are installed, such as
Counter Interface modules, etc. This is also the
portion of the scan that reads the input status from
RSSS
7
Remote I/O bases. _ _ _
8
NOTE: It may appear the Remote I/O point status is updated every scan. This is not quite true. The CPU will
receive information from the Remote I/O Master module every scan, but the Remote Master may not have
9
received an update from all the Remote slaves. Remember, the Remote I/O link is managed by the Remote
Master, not the CPU. 10
Service Peripherals and Force I/O
After the CPU reads the inputs from the input modules, it reads any attached peripheral
11
devices. This is primarily a communications service for any attached devices. For example, it
would read a programming device to see if any input, output, or other memory type status 12
needs to be modified. There are two basic types of forcing available with the DL205 CPUs.
NOTE: DirectNet protocol does not support bit operations.
13
• Forcing from a peripheral – not a permanent force, good only for one scan 14
• Bit Override (DL240, DL250–1 and DL260) – holds the I/O point (or other bit) in the current
state. Valid bits are X, Y, C, T, CT, and S. (These memory types are discussed in more detail later in
this chapter).
A
Regular Forcing — This type of forcing can temporarily change the status of a discrete bit.
For example, you may want to force an input on, even though it is really off. This allows you B
to change the point status that was stored in the image register. This value will be valid until
the image register location is written to during the next scan. This is primarily useful during
testing situations when you need to force a bit on to trigger another event.
C
D

DL205 User Manual, 4th Edition, Rev. A 3–23

 Chapter 3: CPU Specifications and Operations

Bit Override — (DL240, DL250–1 and DL260) Bit override can be enabled on a point-by-
1 point basis by using AUX 59 from the Handheld Programmer or, by a menu option from
within DirectSOFT. Bit override basically disables any changes to the discrete point by the
CPU. For example, if you enable bit override for X1, and X1 is off at the time, then the CPU
2 will not change the state of X1. This means that even if X1 comes on, the CPU will not
acknowledge the change. So, if you used X1 in the program, it would always be evaluated as
3 “off ” in this case. Of course, if X1 was on when the bit override was enabled, then X1 would
always be evaluated as “on”. There is an advantage available when you use the bit override
feature. The regular forcing is not disabled because the bit override is enabled. For example, if
4 you enabled the Bit Override for Y0 and it was off at the time, then the CPU would not
change the state of Y0. However, you can still use a programming device to change the status.
5 Now, if you use the programming device to force Y0 on, it will remain on and the CPU will
not change the state of Y0. If you then force Y0 off, the CPU will maintain Y0 as off. The
CPU will never update the point with the results from the application program or from the

CPU Bus Communication

11 Specialty Modules, such as the Data Communications Module, can transfer data to and from
the CPU over the CPU bus on the backplane. This data is more than standard I/O point
12 status. This type of communications can only occur on the CPU (local) base. There is a
portion of the execution cycle used to communicate with these modules. The CPU performs
13 both read and write requests during this segment.

The DL240 , DL250–1 and DL260 CPUs have an internal real-time clock and calendar

information. This portion of the execution cycle makes sure these locations get updated on
D every scan. Also, there are several different Special Relays, such as diagnostic relays, etc., that
are also updated during this segment.

You may recall the CPU may have obtained and stored forcing information when it serviced 9
the peripheral devices. If any I/O points or memory data have been forced, the output image
register also contains this information. 10
NOTE: If an output point was used in the application program, the results of the program solution will
overwrite any forcing information that was stored. For example, if Y0 was forced on by the programming
device, and a rung containing Y0 was evaluated such that Y0 should be turned off, then the output image
11
register will show that Y0 should be off. Of course, you can force output points that are not used in the
application program. In this case, the point remains forced because there is no solution that results from 12
the application program execution.

Solve PID Loop Equations

13
The DL260 CPU can process up to 16 PID loops and the DL250–1 can process up to 4
 230 PID loops. The loop calculations are run as a separate task from the ladder program 14
 240 execution, immediately following it. Only loops which have been configured are calculated,
 250-1 and then only according to a built-in loop scheduler. The sample time (calculation interval) of
each loop is programmable. Please refer to Chapter 8, PID Loop Operation, for more on the
A
 260 effects of PID loop calculation on the overall CPU scan time.
B
Write Outputs
Once the application program has solved the instruction logic and constructed the output
image register, the CPU writes the contents of the output image register to the corresponding
C
output points located in the local CPU base or the local expansion bases. Remember, the
CPU also made sure any forcing operation changes were stored in the output image register, D
so the forced points get updated with the status specified earlier.

DL205 User Manual, 4th Edition, Rev. A 3–25

 Chapter 3: CPU Specifications and Operations

Write Outputs to Specialty and Remote I/O

1 After the CPU updates the outputs in the local and expansion bases, it sends the output point
information that is required by any Specialty modules which are installed. For example, this is
the portion of the scan that writes the output status from the image register to the Remote
2 I/O racks.

3 NOTE: It may appear the Remote I/O point status is updated every scan. This is not quite true. The CPU will
send the information to the Remote I/O Master module every scan, but the Remote Master will update the
actual remote modules during the next communication sequence between the master and slave modules.
4 Remember, the Remote I/O link communication is managed by the Remote Master, not the CPU.

Diagnostics
5 During this part of the scan, the CPU performs Read Inputs
all system diagnostics and other tasks, such as:
6 • calculating the scan time Read Inputs from Specialty I/O

• updating special relays

7 • resetting the watchdog timer

DL205 CPUs automatically detect and report

One of the more important diagnostic tasks is the Solve the Application Program

when the scan overrun occurs.
14 You can use AUX 53 to view the minimum, maximum, and current scan time. Use AUX 55
to increase or decrease the watchdog timer value. There is also an RSTWT instruction that

I/O Response Time

1
Is Timing Important for Your Application?
I/O response time is the amount of time required for the control system to sense a change in
an input point and update a corresponding output point. In the majority of applications, the
2
CPU performs this task practically instantaneously. However, some applications do require
extremely fast update times. There are four things that can affect the I/O response time: 3
• The point in the scan period when the field input changes states
• Input module Off to On delay time
4
• CPU scan time
• Output module Off to On delay time
5
Normal Minimum I/O Response 6
The I/O response time is shortest when the module senses the input change before the Read
Inputs portion of the execution cycle. In this case the input status is read, the application
program is solved, and the output point gets updated. The following diagram shows an 7
example of the timing for this situation.

In this case, you can calculate the response time by simply adding the following items: A
Input Delay + Scan Time + Output Delay = Response Time
Normal Maximum I/O Response B
The I/O response time is longest when the module senses the input change after the Read
Inputs portion of the execution cycle. In this case the new input status does not get read until
the following scan. The following diagram shows an example of the timing for this situation.
C
In this case, you can calculate the response time by simply adding the following items:
Input Delay +(2 x Scan Time) + Output Delay = Response Time

B The instruction execution time is calculated by adding the time for the immediate input
instruction, the immediate output instruction, and all instructions in between.
C NOTE: When the immediate instruction reads the current status from a module, it uses the results to solve
that one instruction without updating the image register. Therefore, any regular instructions that follow will
still use image register values. Any immediate instructions that follow will access the module again to
D update the status.

As any good computer does, PLCs store and manipulate numbers in binary form: ones and
zeros. So why do we have to deal with numbers in so many different forms? Numbers have
meaning, and some representations are more convenient than others for particular purposes.
5
Sometimes we use numbers to represent a size or amount of something. Other numbers refer
to locations or addresses, or to time. In science we attach engineering units to numbers to give 6
a particular meaning (see Appendix H for numbering system details).
PLC Resources 7
PLCs offer a fixed amount of resources, depending on the model and configuration. We use
the word “resources” to include variable memory (V-memory), I/O points, timers, counters, 8
etc. Most modular PLCs allow you to add I/O points in groups of eight. In fact, all the
resources of our PLCs are counted in octal. It’s easier for computers to count in groups of
eight than ten, because eight is an even power of 2.
9
Octal means simply counting in groups of eight
things at a time. In the figure to the right, there Decimal 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 10
are eight circles. The quantity in decimal is “8”,
but in octal it is “10” (8 and 9 are not valid in 11
octal). In octal, “10” means 1 group of 8 plus 0 Octal 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 10
(no individuals). 12
In the figure below, we have two groups of eight circles. Counting in octal we have “20”
items, meaning 2 groups of eight, plus 0 individuals Don’t say “twenty”, say “two–zero octal”.
This makes a clear distinction between number systems.

V–Memory
1 Variable memory (called “V-memory”) stores data for the ladder program and for configuration settings.
V-memory locations and V-memory addresses are the same thing, and are numbered in octal. For
example, V2073 is a valid location, while V1983 is not valid (“9” and “8” are not valid octal digits).
2 Each V-memory location is one data word wide, meaning 16 bits. For configuration registers, our manuals will
show each bit of a V-memory word. The least significant bit (LSB) will be on the right, and the most significant bit
3 (MSB) on the left. We use the word “significant,” referring to the relative binary weighting of the bits.

(binary)
LSB
V2017 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1
5 V-memory data is 16-bit binary, but we rarely program the data registers one bit at a time. We use
instructions or viewing tools that let us work with binary, decimal, octal, and hexadecimal numbers. All
6 these are converted and stored as binary for us. A frequently-asked question is “How do I tell if a number is
binary, octal, BCD, or hex”? The answer is that we usually cannot tell by looking at the data, but it does not
7 really matter. What matters is: the source or mechanism which writes data into a V-memory location and
the thing which later reads it must both use the same data type (i.e., octal, hex, binary, or whatever). The V-
memory location is a storage box... that’s all. It does not convert or move the data on its own.
8 Binary-Coded Decimal Numbers
Since humans naturally count in decimal, we prefer to enter and view PLC data in decimal as well (via
9 operator interfaces). However, computers are more efficient in using pure binary numbers. A compromise
solution between the two is Binary-Coded Decimal (BCD) representation. A BCD digit ranges from 0 to
10 9, and is stored as four binary bits (a nibble). This permits each V-memory location to store four BCD
digits, with a range of decimal numbers from 0000 to 9999.

12 In a pure binary sense, a 16-bit word represents numbers from 0 to 65535. In storing BCD numbers, the
range is reduced to 0 to 9999. Many math instructions use BCD data, and DirectSOFT and the handheld
13 programmer allow us to enter and view data in BCD. Special RLL instructions convert from BCD to
binary, or visa–versa.
14 Hexadecimal Numbers
Hexadecimal numbers are similar to BCD numbers, except they utilize all possible binary values in each 4-
A bit digit. They are base-16 numbers so we need 16 different digits. To extend our decimal digits 0 through
9, we use A through F as shown.

Memory Map
With any PLC system, you generally have many different types of information to process. 1
This includes input device status, output device status, various timing elements, parts counts,
etc. It is important to understand how the system represents and stores the various types of
data. For example, you need to know how the system identifies input points, output points,
2
data words, etc. The following paragraphs discuss the various memory types used in the
DL205 CPUs. A memory map overview for the DL230, DL240, DL250–1 and DL260 3
CPUs follows the memory descriptions.
Octal Numbering System 4
All memory locations or areas are numbered in Octal
(base 8). For example, the diagram shows how the
X0
_
X7
X10
_
X17
Y0
_
Y7 5
octal numbering system works for the discrete input
points. Notice the octal system does not contain any
numbers with the digits 8 or 9.

Discrete and Word Locations 8

As you examine the different memory types, you’ll
Discrete – On or Off, 1 bit
notice two types of memory in the DL205, discrete
and word memory. Discrete memory is one bit that X0 9
can be either a 1 or a 0. Word memory is referred to as
V memory (variable) and is a 16-bit location normally 10
used to manipulate data/numbers, store data/numbers,
etc. Some information is automatically stored in V-
memory. For example, the timer current values are
Word Locations – 16 bits 11
0 1 0 1 00 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 1
stored in V-memory.
12
V–Memory Locations for Discrete Memory Areas
The discrete memory area is for inputs, outputs, control relays, special relays, stages, timer
13
status bits and counter status bits. However, you can also access the bit data types as a V-
memory word. Each V-memory location contains 16 consecutive discrete locations. For 14
example, the following diagram shows how the X input points are mapped into V-memory
locations. A
16 Discrete (X) Input Points

Input Points (X Data Type)

The discrete input points are noted by an X
1 data type. There are up to 512 discrete input
points available with the DL205 CPUs. In this
X0 Y0
OUT
example, the output point Y0 will be turned on
2 when input X0 energizes.
Output Points (Y Data Type)
3 The discrete output points are noted by a Y data
type. There are up to 512 discrete output points
4 available with the DL205 CPUs. In this
X1 Y1
OUT
example, output point Y1 will turn on when
5 input X1 energizes.
Control Relays (C Data Type)
6 Control relays are discrete bits normally used to
control the user program. The control relays do
not represent a real world device, that is, they
7 cannot be physically tied to switches, output
X10 C5
OUT
coils, etc. They are internal to the CPU. Control
8 relays can be programmed as discrete inputs or
discrete outputs. These locations are used in C5 Y10
programming the discrete memory locations (C) OUT
9 or the corresponding word location which has Y20
16 consecutive discrete locations. In this OUT
10 example, memory location C5 will energize
when input X10 turns on. The second rung
shows a simple example of how to use a control
11 relay as an input.

12 Timers and Timer Status Bits (T Data type)

The amount of timers available depends on the
model of CPU you are using. The tables at the
13 end of this section provide the number of timers X0
TMR T1
for the DL230, DL240, D2-250-1 and DL260. K30
14 Regardless of the number of timers, you have
access to timer status bits that reflect the
relationship between the current value and the
A preset value of a specified timer. The timer status T1 Y12
OUT
bit will be on when the current value is equal to
B or greater than the preset value of a
corresponding timer.
C When input X0 turns on, timer T1 will start.
When the timer reaches the preset of 3 seconds
(K of 30) timer status contact T1 turns on.
D When T1 turns on, output Y12 turns on.

Timer Current Values (V Data Type)
X0
Some information is automatically stored in V-memory, TMR T1
such as the current values associated with timers. For
example, V0 holds the current value for Timer 0, V1 V1 K30
K1000

Y12
1
holds the current value for Timer 1, etc. These are 4- OUT
digit BCD values. V1 K50 Y13

The primary reason for this is programming flexibility. OUT
The example shows how you can use relational contacts

3
to monitor several time intervals from a single timer.
OUT
Counters and Counter Status Bits (CT Data type) 4
You have access to counter status bits that reflect the
relationship between the current value and the preset
value of a specified counter. The counter status bit will

CNT
K10
CT3 5
be on when the current value is equal to or greater than
the preset value of a corresponding counter.
X1
6
CT3 Y12

Each time contact X0 transitions from off to on, the

counter increments by one. (If X1 comes on, the
counter is reset to zero.) When the counter reaches the 8
preset of 10 counts (K of 10) counter status contact
CT3 turns on. When CT3 turns on, output Y12 turns
on.

Counter Current Values (V Data Type) K10
Just like the timers, the counter current values are also
automatically stored in V-memory. For example, V1000

holds the current value for Counter CT0, V1001 holds
the current value for Counter CT1, etc. These are 4-

8 Special Relays (SP Data Type)
Special relays are discrete memory locations with
9 pre-defined functionality. There are many different
types of special relays. For example, some aid in SP5 C10

operating status information, etc. Appendix D
OUT

provides a complete listing of the special relays.

11 In this example, control relay C10 will energize for
50 ms and de–energize for 50 ms because SP5 is a

SP4: 1 second clock
SP5: 100 ms clock
for 50 ms.
13 Remote I/O Points (GX Data Type)
SP6: 50 ms clock
Remote I/O points are represented by global relays.
14 They are generally used only to control remote
I/O, but they can be used as normal control relays
when remote I/O is not used in the system.

DL205 Aliases
1 An alias is an alternate way of referring to certain memory types, such as timer/counter
current values, V-memory locations for I/O points, etc., which simplifies understanding the
2 memory address. The use of the alias is optional, but some users may find the alias to be
helpful when developing a program. The table below shows how the aliases can be used.
3
DL205 Aliases
4 Address Start Alias Start Example
V0 TA0 V0 is the timer accumulator value for timer 0, therefore, it’s
alias is TA0. TA1 is the alias for V1, etc..
5 V1000 CTA0 V1000 is the counter accumulator value for counter 0,
therefore, it’s alias is CTA0. CTA1 is the alias for V1001, etc.
6 V40000 VGX
V40000 is the word memory reference for discrete bits GX0
through GX17, therefore, it’s alias is VGX0. V40001 is the word
memory reference for discrete bits GX20 through GX37,
therefore, it’s alias is VGX20.
7 V40200 is the word memory reference for discrete bits GY0
V40200 VGY through GY17, therefore, it’s alias is VGY0. V40201 is the word
memory reference for discrete bits GY20 through GY37,
8 therefore, it’s alias is VGY20.
V40400 is the word memory reference for discrete bits X0
through X17, therefore, it’s alias is VX0. V40401 is the word
9 V40400 VX0 memory reference for discrete bits X20 through X37, therefore,
it’s alias is VX20.
V40500 is the word memory reference for discrete bits Y0
10 V40500 VY0 through Y17, therefore, it’s alias is VY0. V40501 is the word
memory reference for discrete bits Y20 through Y37, therefore,
it’s alias is VY20.
11 V40600 is the word memory reference for discrete bits C0
through C17, therefore, it’s alias is VC0. V40601 is the word
V40600 VC0 memory reference for discrete bits C20 through C37, therefore,
12 it’s alias is VC20.
V41000 is the word memory reference for discrete bits S0
V41000 VS0 through S17, therefore, it’s alias is VS0. V41001 is the word
13 memory reference for discrete bits S20 through S37, therefore,
it’s alias is VS20.
V41100 is the word memory reference for discrete bits T0
14 V41100 VT0 through T17, therefore, it’s alias is VT0. V41101 is the word
memory reference for discrete bits T20 through T37, therefore,
it’s alias is VT20.

A V41140 VCT0
V41140 is the word memory reference for discrete bits CT0
through CT17, therefore, it’s alias is VCT0. V41141 is the word
memory reference for discrete bits CT20 through CT37,
therefore, it’s alias is VCT20.
B V41200 is the word memory reference for discrete bits SP0
V41200 VSP0 through SP17, therefore, it’s alias is VSP0. V41201 is the word
memory reference for discrete bits SP20 through SP37,
C therefore, it’s alias is VSP20.

DL205 System Design Strategies

1
I/O System Configurations
2 The DL205 PLCs offer the following ways to add I/O to the system:
• Local I/O – consists of I/O modules located in the same base as the CPU.
3 • Local Expansion I/O – consists of I/O modules in expansion bases located close to the CPU local
base. Expansion cables connect the expansion bases and CPU base in daisy–chain format.

4 • Ethernet Remote Master – provides a low-cost, high-speed Ethernet Remote I/O link to Ethernet
Remote Slave I/O
• Ethernet Base Controller – provides a low-cost, high-speed Ethernet link between a network master
5 to AutomationDirect Ethernet Remote Slave I/O
• Remote I/O – consists of I/O modules located in bases which are serially connected to the local
6 CPU base through a Remote Master module, or may connect directly to the bottom port on a
DL250–1 or DL260 CPU.

7 A DL205 system can be developed using many different arrangements of these

configurations. All I/O configurations use the standard complement of DL205 I/O modules
and bases. Local expansion requires using (–1) bases.
8 Networking Configurations
The DL205 PLCs offers the following way to add networking to the system:
9 • Ethernet Communications Module – connects DL205 systems (DL240, DL250–1 or DL260
CPUs only) and DL405 CPU systems in high–speed peer–to–peer networks. Any PLC can initiate
10 communications with any other PLC when using either the ECOM or ECOM100 modules.
• Data Communications Module – connects a DL205 (DL240, DL250–1 and DL260 only) system
11 to devices using the DirectNET protocol, or connects as a slave to a Modbus RTU network.
• DL250–1 Communications Port – The DL250–1 CPU has a 15–Pin connector on Port 2 that
provides a built–in Modbus RTU or DirectNET master/slave connection.
12 • DL260 Communications Port – The DL260 CPU has a 15–Pin connector on Port 2 that provides
a built–in DirectNET master/slave or Modbus RTU master/slave connection with more Modbus
13 function codes than the DL250–1. (The DL260 MRX and MWX instructions allow you to enter
native Modbus addressing in your ladder program with no need to perform octal to decimal
conversions). Port 2 can also be used for ASCII IN or ASCII OUT communications.

Module Placement
Slot Numbering
The DL205 bases each provide different
1
numbers of slots for use with the I/O
modules. You may notice the bases refer to 2
3-slot, 4-slot, etc. One of the slots is Slot 0 Slot 1 Slot 2 Slot 3 Slot 4
dedicated to the CPU, so you always have
one less I/O slot. For example, you have five
3
I/O slots with a 6-slot base. The I/O slots
are numbered 0 – 4. The CPU slot always

Automatic I/O Configuration

1  230 The DL205 CPUs automatically detect any installed I/O modules (including specialty
modules) at powerup, and establish the correct I/O configuration and addresses. This applies
 240 to modules located in local and local expansion I/O bases. For most applications, you will
2  250-1 never have to change the configuration.

3  260 I/O addresses use octal numbering, starting at X0 and Y0 in the slot next to the CPU. The
addresses are assigned in groups of 8 or 16, depending on the number of points for the I/O
module. The discrete input and output modules can be mixed in any order, but there may be
4 restrictions placed on some specialty modules. The following diagram shows the I/O
numbering convention for an example system.
5 Both the Handheld Programmer and DirectSOFT provide AUX functions that allow you to
automatically configure the I/O. For example, with the Handheld Programmer AUX 46
executes an automatic configuration, which allows the CPU to examine the installed modules
6 and determine the I/O configuration and addressing. With DirectSOFT, the PLC Configure
I/O menu option would be used.

 230 Manual I/O Configuration
13 It may never become necessary, but DL250–1 and DL260 CPUs allow manual I/O address
 240 assignments for any I/O slot(s) in local or local expansion bases. You can manually modify an
14  250-1 auto configuration to match arbitrary I/O numbering. For example, two adjacent input
 260 menu
modules can have starting addresses at X20 and X200. Use DirectSOFT PLC Configure I/O
option to assign manual I/O address.
A In automatic configuration, the addresses are assigned on 8-point boundaries. Manual
configuration, however, assumes that all modules are at least 16 points, so you can only assign
B addresses that are a multiple of 20 (octal). For example, X30 and Y50 are not valid starting
addresses. You can still use 8 point modules, but 16 addresses will be assigned and the upper
eight addresses will be unused.
C WARNING: If you manually configure an I/O slot, the I/O addressing for the other modules may change.
This is because the DL250–1 and DL260 CPUs do not allow you to assign duplicate I/O addresses. You
D must always correct any I/O configuration errors before you place the CPU in RUN mode. Uncorrected
errors can cause unpredictable machine operation that can result in a risk of personal injury or
damage to equipment.

4–4 DL205 User Manual, 4th Edition, Rev. A

 Chapter 4: System Design and Configuration

Removing a Manual Configuration

After a manual configuration, the system will automatically retain the new I/O addresses
through a power cycle. You can remove (overwrite) any manual configuration changes by
1
changing all of the manually configured addresses back to automatic.
Power–On I/O Configuration Check
2
The DL205 CPUs can also be set to automatically check the I/O configuration on power-up.
By selecting this feature you can detect any changes that may have occurred while the power 3
was disconnected. For example, if someone places an output module in a slot that previously
held an input module, the CPU will not go into RUN mode and the configuration check will 4
detect the change and print a message on the Handheld Programmer or DirectSOFT screen
(use AUX 44 on the HPP to enable the configuration check).
If the system detects a change in the PLC/Setup/I/O configuration check at power-up, error
5
code E252 will be generated. You can use AUX 42 (HPP) or DirectSOFT I/O diagnostics to
determine the exact base and slot location where the change occurred. When a configuration 6
error is generated, you may actually want to use the new I/O configuration. For example, you
may have intentionally changed an I/O module to use with a program change. You can use 7
PLC/Diagnostics/I/O Diagnostics in DirectSoft or AUX 45 to select the new configuration,
or, keep the existing configuration stored in memory.
WARNING: You should always correct any I/O configuration errors before you place the CPU into RUN
8
mode. Uncorrected errors can cause unpredictable machine operation that can result in a risk of
personal injury or damage to equipment. 9
WARNING: Verify the I/O configuration being selected will work properly with the CPU program. Always
correct any I/O configuration errors before placing the CPU in RUN mode. Uncorrected errors can cause
unpredictable machine operation that can result in a risk of personal injury or damage to equipment.

Calculating the Power Budget

1
Managing your Power Resource
When you determine the types and quantity of I/O modules you will be using in the DL205
system it is important to remember there is a limited amount of power available from the
2
power supply. We have provided a chart to help you easily see the amount of power available
with each base. The following chart will help you calculate the amount of power you need 3
with your I/O selections. At the end of this section you will also find an example of power
budgeting and a worksheet for your own calculations. 4
If the I/O you choose exceeds the maximum power available from the power supply, you may
need to use local expansion bases or remote I/O bases. 5
WARNING: It is extremely important to calculate the power budget. If you exceed the power budget, the
system may operate in an unpredictable manner which may result in a risk of personal injury or
equipment damage.
6
CPU Power Specifications 7
The following chart shows the amount of current available for the two voltages supplied from
the DL205 base. Use these currents when calculating the power budget for your system. The
Auxiliary 24V Power Source mentioned in the table is a connection at the base terminal strip
8
allowing you to connect to devices or DL205 modules that require 24VDC.

1. Use the power budget table to fill in the power requirements for all the system
components. First, enter the amount of power supplied by the base. Next, list the 10
requirements for the CPU, any I/O modules, and any other devices, such as the Handheld
Programmer, C-more HMI or the DV–1000 operator interface. Remember, even though
the Handheld or the DV–1000 are not installed in the base, they still obtain their power
11
from the system. Also, make sure you obtain any external power requirements, such as the
24VDC power required by the analog modules. 12
2. Add the current columns starting with CPU slot and put the total in the row labeled “Total

4. If “Total Power Required” is greater than the power available from the base, the power
budget will be exceeded. It will be unsafe to use this configuration and you will need to
restructure your I/O configuration.

Local Expansion I/O

Use local expansion when you need more I/O points, a greater power budget than the local 1
CPU base provides or when placing an I/O base at a location away from the CPU base, but
within the expansion cable limits. Each local expansion base requires the D2–CM controller
module in the CPU slot. The local CPU base requires the D2–EM expansion module, as well
2
as each expansion base. All bases in the system must be the new (–1) bases. These bases have a
connector on the right side of the base to which the D2–EM expansion module attaches. All 3
local and local expansion I/O points are updated on every CPU scan.

Expansion Base Output Hold Option

The bit settings in V–memory registers V7741 and V7742 determine the expansion bases’
outputs response to a communications failure. The CPU will exit the RUN mode to the
1
STOP mode when an expansion base communications failure occurs. If the Output Hold bit
is ON, the outputs on the corresponding module will hold their last state when a 2
communication error occurs. If OFF (default), the outputs on the module unit will turn off
in response to an error. The setting does not have to be the same for all the modules on an 3
expansion base.
The selection of the output mode will depend on your application. You must consider the
consequences of turning off all the devices in one or all expansion bases at the same time vs.
4
letting the system run “steady state” while unresponsive to input changes. For example, a
conveyor system would typically suffer no harm if the system were shut down all at once. In a 5
way, it is the equivalent of an “E–STOP”. On the other hand, for a continuous process such
as waste water treatment, holding the last state would allow the current state of the process to 6
continue until the operator can intervene manually. V7741 and V7742 are reserved for the
expansion base Output Hold option. The bit definitions are as follows:
Bit = 0 Output Off (Default)

Enabling I/O Configuration Check using DirectSOFT

1 Enabling the I/O Config Check will force the CPU, at power up, to examine the local and
expansion I/O configuration before entering the RUN mode. If there is a change in the I/O
configuration, the CPU will not enter the RUN mode. For example, if local expansion base
2 #1 does not power up with the CPU and the other expansion bases, the I/O Configuration
Check will prevent the CPU from entering the RUN mode. If the I/O Configuration check is
3 disabled and automatic addressing is used, the CPU would assign addresses from expansion
base #1 to base #2 and possibly enter the RUN mode. This is not desirable, and can be
prevented by enabling the I/O Configuration check.
4 Manual addressing can be used to manually assign addresses to the I/O modules. This will
prevent any automatic addressing re–assignments by the CPU. The I/O Configuration Check
5 can also be used with manual addressing.
To display the I/O Config Check window, use DirectSOFT>PLC menu>Setup>I/O Config

Expanding DL205 I/O

1
I/O Expansion Overview
Expanding I/O beyond the local chassis is useful for a system which has a sufficient number
of sensors and other field devices located a relatively long distance from the CPU. There are
2
two forms of communication which can be used to add remote I/O to your system; either a
Ethernet or a serial communication network. A discussion of each method follows. 3
Ethernet Remote Master, H2-ERM(-F) 4
The Ethernet Remote Master, H2-ERM(-F), is a module that provides a low-cost, high-speed
 230 Ethernet Remote I/O link to connect either a DL240, a DL250-1 or a DL260 CPU to slave
5
 240 I/O over a high-speed Ethernet link.

 250-1 Each H2-ERM module can support up to 16 additional H2-EBC systems, 16 Terminator
I/O EBC systems, or 16 fully expanded H4-EBC systems. 6

ST-style fiber optic cables and can be run up to 2,000 meters (6560 ft.).
The PLC, ERM and EBC slave modules work together to update the remote I/O points. 11
These three scan cycles are occurring at the same time, but asynchronously. We recommend
that critical I/O points that must be monitored every scan be placed in the CPU base. 12

can handle an extremely large number of data transactions, and normally very quickly, heavy
11 Ethernet traffic can adversely affect the reliability of the slave I/O and the speed of the I/O
network. Keep ERM networks, multiple ERM networks and ECOM/office networks isolated
from one another.
12 Once the ERM remote I/O network is configured and running, the PC can be removed from
the network.

Installing the ERM Module

This section will briefly describe the installation of the ERM module. More detailed
information is available in the Ethernet Remote Master Module manual, H24-ERM-M,
1
which will be needed to configure the communication link to the remote I/O.
In addition to the manual, configuration software will be needed. The ERM Workbench
2
software utility must be used to cofigure the ERM and its slave modules. The utility is
provided on a CD which comes with the ERM manual. The ERM module can be identified 3
by two different methods, either by Module ID (dip switch) or by Ethernet address, which
ever method is used, the ERM Workbench is all that is needed to cofigure the network
modules.
4
NetEdit software utility (included with the ERM Workbench utility) will be needed in
addition to the ERM Workbench if IP addressing (UDP/IP) is necessary or if the Module ID
5
is set with software.
ERM Module ID 6
Set the ERM Module ID before installing the module in the DL205 base. Always set the
module ID to 0. A Module ID can be set in one of two ways: 7
• Use the DIP switches on the module (1-63).
• Use the configuration tools in NetEdit 8
Use the DIP switch to install and change slave modules without using a PC to set the Module
ID. Set the module’s DIP switch, insert the module in the base, and connect the network 9

cable. The Module ID is set on powerup, and it is ready to communicate on the network. A
The Module IDs can also be set or changed on the network from a single PC by using the
tools in NetEdit. B
The Module ID equals the sum of the binary values of the slide switches set in the ON
position. For example, if slide switches 1, 2 and 3 are set to the ON position, the Module ID C
will be 14. This is found by adding 8+4+2=14. The maximum value which can be set on the
DIP switch is 32+16+8+4+2=63. This is achieved by setting switches 0 through 5 to the ON
position. The 6 and 7 switch positions are inactive.

I/O slave system. Also, the H2-EBC100 supports the Modbus TCP/IP client/server protocol.
2 The Ethernet Base Controller (EBC) serves as an interface between the master control system
and the DL205/405 I/O modules. The control function is performed by the master
3 controller, not the EBC slave. The EBC occupies the CPU slot in the base and communicates
across the backplane to input and output modules. Various master controllers with EBC
4 slaves are shown in the diagram below.

Install the EBC Module

Like the ERM module discussed in the previous section, this will briefly describe the
installation of the H2 Series EBCs. More detailed information is available in the Ethernet
1
Base Controller manual, H24-EBC-M, which will be needed to configure the remote I/O.
Each EBC module must be assigned at least one unique identifier to make it possible for
2
master controllers to recognize it on the network. Two methods for identifying the EBC
module give it the flexibility to fit most networking schemes. These identifiers are: 3
• Module ID (IPX protocol only)
• IP Address (for TCP/IP and Modbus TCP/IP protocols) 4
Set the Module ID
The two methods which can be used to set the EBC module ID are either by DIP switch or 5
by software. One software method is to use the NetEdit3 program which is included with the
EBC manual. To keep the setup discussion simple here, only the DIP switch method will be
discussed. Refer to the EBC manual for the complete use of NetEdit3.
6
It is recommended to use the DIP switch to set the Module ID because the DIP switch is
simple to set, and the Module ID can be determined by looking at the physical module,
7
without reference to a software utility.
The DIP switch can be used to set the Module ID to a number from 1-63. Do not use
8
Module ID 0 for communication.
If the DIP switch is set to a number greater than 0, the software utilities are disabled from
9
setting the Module ID. Software utilities will only allow changes to the Module ID if the DIP
switch setting is 0 (all switches OFF). 10
NOTE: The DIP switch settings are read at powerup only. The power must be cycled each time the DIP
switches are changed. 11
Setting the Module ID with the DIP switches is identical to setting the DIP switches on the
H2-ERM module. Refer to page 4-19 in this chapter.
12
Insert the EBC Module 13
Once the Module ID DIP switches are set, insert the module in the CPU slot of any DL205
base.

9 manufactured cables which have the connectors already installed.
To connect an EBC, or a PC, to a hub or repeater, use a patch cable (sometimes called a

10BaseFL Network Cabling

The H2-EBC-F and the H2-ERM-F modules have two ST-style bayonet connectors. The ST-
style connector uses a quick release coupling which requires a quarter turn to engage or
1
disengage. The connectors provide mechanical and optical alignment of fibers.
Each cable segment requires two strands of fiber; one to transmit data and one to receive data.
2
The ST-style connectors are used to connect the H2-Exx-F module to a PC or a fiber optic
hub or repeater. The modules themselves cannot act as repeaters. 3
The H2-EBC-F and the H2-ERM-F modules accept 62.5/125 multimode fiber optic (MMF)
cable. The glass core diameter is 62.5 micrometers, and the glass cladding is 125 micrometers. 4
The fiber optic cable is highly immune to noise and permits communications over much
greater distances than 10/100BaseT.

Add a Serial Remote I/O Master/Slave Module

1 In addition to the I/O located in the local base, adding remote I/O can be accomplished via a
 230 shielded twisted-pair cable linking the master CPU to a remote I/O base. The methods of
2  240 adding serial remote I/O are:
• DL240 CPUs: Remote I/O requires a remote master module (D2–RMSM) to be installed in the
 250-1 local base. The CPU updates the remote master, then the remote master handles all communication
3  260 to and from the remote I/O base by communicating to a remote slave module (D2–RSSS) installed
in each remote base.

4 • DL250–1 and D2–260 CPU: The CPU’s comm port 2 features a built-in Remote I/O channel. You
may also use up to 7 D2–RMSM remote masters in the local base as described above (you can use
either or both methods).

Remote I/O points map into different CPU memory locations, therefore it does not reduce

remote I/O configuration and numbering. Configuring the built-in remote I/O channel is
10 described in the following section.
The figure below shows one CPU base, and one remote I/O channel with six remote bases. If
11 the CPU is a DL250–1 or DL260, adding the first remote I/O channel does not require
installing a remote master module (use the CPU’s built-in remote I/O channel).

Configuring the CPU’s Remote I/O Channel

This section describes how to configure the DL250–1 and DL260’s built-in remote I/O
channel. Additional information is in the Remote I/O manual, D2–REMIO–M, which you
1
 230 will need in configuring the Remote slave units on the network. You can use the
 240 D2–REMIO–M manual exclusively when using regular Remote Masters and Remote Slaves 2
 250-1 for remote I/O in any DL205 system.
3
 260 The DL250–1 and DL260 CPU’s built-in remote I/O channel only supports RM–Net which
allows it to communicate with up to seven remote bases containing a maximum of 2048 I/O
points per channel, at a maximum distance of 1000 meters. If required, you can still use
Remote Master modules in the local CPU base (2048 I/O points on each channel).
4
You may recall from the CPU specifications in Chapter 3 that the DL250–1 and DL260’s
Port 2 is capable of several protocols. To configure the port using the Handheld Programmer,
5
use AUX 56 and follow the prompts, making the same choices as indicated below on this
page. To configure the port in DirectSOFT, choose the PLC menu, then Setup, then Setup 6
Secondary Comm Port.
• Port: From the port number list box at the
top, choose “Port 2”.
7
• Protocol: Click the check box to the left of
“Remote I/O” (called “M–NET” on the
8
HPP), and then you’ll see the dialog box
shown below. 9
• Station Number: Choose “0” as the
station number, which makes the
DL250–1 or DL260 the master. Station
10
numbers 1–7 are reserved for remote
slaves. 11
• Baud Rate: The baud rates 19200 and
38400 are available. Choose 38400
initially as the remote I/O baud rate, and 12
revert to 19200 baud if you experience
data errors or noise problems on the link. 13
• Memory Address: Choose a V-memory
address to use as the starting location of a
Remote I/O configuration table (V37700 14
is the default). This table is separate and
independent from the table for any
Remote Master(s) in the system, and it is

Configure Remote I/O Slaves

After configuring the DL250–1 or DL260 CPU’s Port 2 and wiring it to the remote slave(s),
use the following checklist to complete the configuration of the remote slaves. Full
1
instructions for these steps are in the Remote I/O manual.
• Set the baud rate to match CPU’s Port 2 setting.

Network Slave Operation

This section describes how other devices on a network can communicate with a CPU port
 230 that you have configured as a DirectNET slave (DL240/250–1/260) or Modbus slave 1
 240 (DL250–1, DL260). A Modbus host must use the Modbus RTU protocol to communicate
 250-1 with the DL250–1 or DL260 as a slave. The host software must send a Modbus function 2
 260 code and Modbus address to specify a PLC memory location the DL250–1 or DL260
comprehends. The DirectNET host uses normal I/O addresses to access applicable DL205
CPU and system. No CPU ladder logic is required to support either Modbus slave or 3
DirectNET slave operation.

 230 Modbus Function Codes Supported

4
 240 The Modbus function code determines whether the access is a read or a write, and whether to
 250-1 access a single data point or a group of them. The DL250–1 and DL260 support the Modbus 5
 260 function codes described below.

There are typically two ways that most host software conventions allow you to specify a PLC
memory location. These are: 10
• By specifying the Modbus data type and address
• By specifying a Modbus address only. 11
If Your Host Software Requires the Data Type and Address
Many Host software packages allow you to specify the Modbus data type and the Modbus
12
address that corresponds to the PLC memory location. This is the easiest method, but not all
packages allow you to do it this way. 13
The actual equation used to calculate the address depends on the type of PLC data you are
using. The PLC memory types are split into two categories for this purpose. 14
• Discrete – X, SP, Y, C, S, T (contacts), CT (contacts)
• Word – V, Timer current value, Counter current value A
In either case, you basically convert the PLC octal address to decimal and add the appropriate
Modbus address (if required). The following table shows the exact equation used for each
group of data.

If Your Modbus Host Software Requires an Address ONLY

1 Some host software does not allow you to specify the Modbus data type and address. Instead,
you specify an address only. This method requires another step to determine the address, but
it is not difficult. Basically, Modbus separates the data types by address ranges as well. So this
2 means an address alone can actually describe the type of data and location. This is often
referred to as “adding the offset”. One important thing to remember here is that two different
3 addressing modes may be available in your host software package. These are:
• 484 Mode
4 • 584/984 Mode
We recommend that you use the 584/984 addressing mode if your host software allows you
5 to choose. This is because the 584/984 mode allows access to a higher number of memory
locations within each data type. If your software only supports 484 mode, then there may be
some PLC memory locations that will be unavailable. The actual equation used to calculate
6 the address depends on the type of PLC data you are using. The PLC memory types are split
into two categories for this purpose.
7 • Discrete – X, GX, SP, Y, R, S, T, CT (contacts), C (contacts)
• Word – V, Timer current value, Counter current value
8 In either case, you basically convert the PLC octal address to decimal and add the appropriate
Modbus addresses (as required). The table below shows the exact equation used for each
9 group of data.

D  230 Addressing the memory types for DirectNET slaves is very easy. Use the ordinary native
 240 address of the slave device itself. To access a slave PLC’s memory address V2000 via
 250-1 DirectNET, for example, the network master will request V2000 from the slave.

Network Master Operation

 230
This section describes how the DL250–1 and DL260 can communicate on a Modbus or
DirectNET network as a master. For Modbus networks, it uses the Modbus RTU protocol,
1
 240 which must be interpreted by all the slaves on the network. Both Modbus and DirectNET are
 250-1 single master/multiple slave networks. The master is the only member of the network that can 2
 260 initiate requests on the network. This section teaches you how to design the required ladder
logic for network master operation. 3

Modbus RTU Protocol, or DirectNET 8
When using the DL250–1 or DL260 CPU
as the master station, you use simple RLL Master
9
instructions to initiate the requests. The
WX instruction initiates network write 10
operations, and the RX instruction initiates
network read operations. Before executing
either the WX or RX commands, we will
Slave 11
need to load data related to the read or
write operation onto the CPU’s WX (write) 12
accumulator stack. When the WX or RX RX (read)
instruction executes, it uses the information
on the stack combined with data in the Network
13
instruction box to completely define the
task, which goes to the port. 14
The following step-by-step procedure will provide the information necessary to set up your
ladder program to receive data from a network slave. A

Step 1: Identify Master Port # and Slave # F 1 0 1

1 The first Load (LD) instruction identifies the
communications port number on the network
master (DL250-1/260) and the address of the Slave Address (BCD)
2 slave station. This instruction can address up to CPU bottom port (BCD)
99 Modbus slaves, or 90 DirectNET slaves. The Internal port (hex)
3 format of the word is shown to the right. The
“F1” in the upper byte indicates the use of the LD
bottom port of the DL250-1/260 PLC, port KF101
4 number 2. The lower byte contains the slave
address number in BCD (01 to 99).
5 Step 2: Load Number of Bytes to Transfer 1 2 8
The second Load (LD) instruction determines
6 the number of bytes which will be transferred
between the master and slave in the subsequent # of bytes to transfer
7 WX or RX instruction. The value to be loaded is
in BCD format (decimal), from 1 to 128 bytes. LD
K128

8 The number of bytes specified also depends on

the type of data you want to obtain. For example, the DL205 Input points can be accessed by
V-memory locations or as X input locations. However, if you only want X0 – X27, you’ll have
9 to use the X input data type because the V-memory locations can only be accessed in 2-byte
increments. The following table shows the byte ranges for the various types of

Step 3: Specify Master Memory Area

4 0 6 0 0
The third instruction in the RX or WX sequence is
a Load Address (LDA) instruction. Its purpose is to
(octal) 1
load the starting address of the memory area to be
transferred. Entered as an octal number, the LDA
Starting address of
master transfer area
2
instruction converts it to hex and places the result
in the accumulator.
LDA
3
For a WX instruction, the DL250-1/260 CPU O40600
sends the number of bytes previously specified
from its memory area beginning at the LDA
4
MSB V40600 LSB
address specified.
For an RX instruction, the DL250-1/260 CPU 15 0
5
reads the number of bytes previously specified
from the slave, placing the received data into its MSB V40601 LSB 6
memory area beginning at the LDA address
15 0
specified. 7
NOTE: Since V-memory words are always 16 bits, you may not always use the whole word. For example, if
you only specify 3 bytes and you are reading Y outputs from the slave, you will only get 24 bits of data. In
this case, only the 8 least significant bits of the last word location will be modified. The remaining 8 bits
8
are not affected.
9
Step 4: Specify Slave Memory Area
The last instruction in our sequence is the WX or
SP116
10
RX instruction itself. Use WX to write to the slave, LD
and RX to read from the slave. All four of our
instructions are shown to the right. In the last
KF101
11
instruction, you must specify the starting address LD
and a valid data type for the slave. K128 12
• DirectNET slaves – specify the same address in the

the use of these contacts for a network

O40600
“Port Busy” bit is on while the PLC
6 communicates with the slave. When the bit
is off the program can initiate the next RX
Y0
network request.
7 The “Port Communication Error” bit turns
on when the PLC has detected an error. Use of this bit is optional. When used, it should be

instruction is executed.
9 Multiple Read and Write Interlocks Interlocking Relay

Network Modbus RTU Master Operation (DL260 only)

This section describes how the DL260 can communicate on a Modbus RTU network as a 1
 230 master using the MRX and MWX read/write instructions. These instructions allow you to
 240 enter native Modbus addressing in your ladder logic program with no need to perform octal 2
 250-1 to decimal conversions. Modbus is a single master/multiple slave network. The master is the
only member of the network that can initiate requests on the network. This section teaches
 260 you how to design the required ladder logic for network master operation. 3

instructions which use the port as a master. Thereafter, the port reverts back to slave mode until
ladder logic uses the port again.
A • Baud Rate: The available baud rates include 300, 600, 900, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, and 38400
baud. Choose a higher baud rate initially, reverting to lower baud rates if you experience data errors
B or noise problems on the network. Important: You must configure the baud rates of all devices on
the network to the same value. Refer to the appropriate product manual for details.

C • Stop Bits: Choose 1 or 2 stop bits for use in the protocol.

• Parity: Choose none, even, or odd parity for error checking.

D • Echo Suppression: Select the appropriate radio button based on the wiring configuration used on
port 2.
Then click the button indicated to send the Port configuration to the CPU, and click Close.

1 DL260 port 2 has two Special Relay contacts associated with it (see Appendix D for comm
port special relays). One indicates “Port busy”(SP116), and the other indicates ”Port
Communication Error”(SP117). The “Port Busy” bit is on while the PLC communicates with
2 the slave. When the bit is off the program can initiate the next network request. The “Port
Communication Error” bit turns on when the PLC has detected an error and use of this bit is
3 optional. When used, it should be ahead of any network instruction boxes since the error bit
is reset when an MRX or MWX instruction is executed. Typically, network communications
will last longer than one CPU scan. The program must wait for the communications to finish
4 before starting the next transaction.

6 Multiple Read and Write Interlocks
7 SP116 will execute every time it attempts to poll the network. You should see this
counting up as you enable the MWX and MRX instructions. Some things that would
prevent this: 1) Com Port RTS and CTS not jumpered. 2) Port not set up for Modbus
8 RTU. 3) Problem in logic that is not allowing the MWX or MRX to enable.

Under good conditions, SP116 will be counting up and SP117 will not. You will get an

If you are using multiple reads and writes in the RLL program, you need to interlock the
routines to make sure all the routines are executed. If you don’t use the interlocks, then the
CPU will only execute the first routine. This is because each port can only handle one 1
transaction at a time. In the example, rungs 3 and 4 show that C100 will get set after the RX
instruction has been executed. When the port has finished the communication task, the 2
second routine is executed and C100 is reset. If you’re using RLLPLUS Stage Programming,
you can put each routine in a separate program stage to ensure proper execution and switch
from stage to stage allowing only one of them to be active at a time.

This rung does a Modbus write to the first holding register 40001 of slave address number one.

It writes the values over that reside in V2000. This particular function code only writes to one
register. Use function code 16 to write to multiple registers. Only one Network Instruction
(WX, RX, MWX, MRX) can be enabled in one scan. That is the reason for the interlock bits. For using

many network instructions on the same port, use the Shift Register instruction.

Introduction
1 The DL205 CPUs offer a wide variety of instructions to perform many different types of
operations. There are several instructions that are not available in all of the CPUs. This
2 chapter shows you how to use these individual instructions. There are two ways to quickly
find the instruction you need.
3 • If you know the instruction category (Boolean, Comparative Boolean, etc.), use the header at the
top of the page to find the pages that discuss the instructions in that category.
• If you know the individual instruction name, use the following table to find the page that discusses
4 the instruction.

 Chapter 5: Standard RLL Instructions - Boolean

Using Boolean Instructions

Do you ever wonder why so many PLC manufacturers always quote the scan time for a 1K 1
boolean program? Simple. Most all programs utilize many boolean instructions. These are
typically very simple instructions designed to join input and output contacts in various series
and parallel combinations. Our DirectSOFT programming package is a similar program. It
2
uses graphic symbols to develop a program; therefore, you don’t necessarily have to know the
instruction mnemonics in order to develop your program. 3
Many of the instructions in this chapter are not program instructions used in DirectSOFT,
but are implied. In other words, they are not actually keyboard commands, however, they can 4
be seen in a Mnemonic View of the program once the DirectSOFT program has been
developed and accepted (compiled). Each instruction listed in this chapter will have a small
chart to indicate how the instruction is used with DirectSOFT and the HPP.
5
DS
HPP
Implied
Used
6
The following paragraphs show how these instructions are used to build simple ladder
programs.
7
END Statement 8
All DL205 programs require an END statement as the last instruction. This tells the CPU
that this is the end of the program. Normally, any instructions placed after the END
statement will not be executed. There are exceptions to this such as interrupt routines, etc.
9
Chapter 5 discusses the instruction set in detail.
DirectSOFT Example
10
X0 Y0

All programs must have

OUT
11
an END statement
END 12
Simple Rungs 13
You use a contact to start rungs that contain both contacts and coils. The boolean instruction
that does this is called a Store or, STR instruction. The output point is represented by the
Output or, OUT instruction. The following example shows how to enter a single contact and
14
a single output coil.
DirectSOFT Example Handheld Mnemonics
A
X0 Y0
OUT
STR X0
OUT Y0
END
B
C
END

DL205 User Manual, 4th Edition, Rev. A 5–5

 Chapter 5: Standard RLL Instructions - Boolean

Normally Closed Contact

1 Normally closed contacts are also very common. This is accomplished with the Store Not, or
STRN instruction. The following example shows a simple rung with a normally closed
contact.
2
DirectSOFT Example Handheld Mnemonics
3 X0 Y0 STRN X0
OUT OUT Y0

4 END

END
5
Contacts in Series
6 Use the AND instruction to join two or more contacts in series. The following example shows
two contacts in series and a single output coil. The instructions used would be STR X0, AND
7 X1, followed by OUT Y0.
DirectSOFT Example Handheld Mnemonics
8 X0 X1 Y0 STR X0
AND X1
OUT OUT Y0
9 END

END
10
Midline Outputs
11 Sometimes it is necessary to use midline outputs to get additional outputs that are conditional
on other contacts. The following example shows how you can use the AND instruction to
12 continue a rung with more conditional outputs.

13 DirectSOFT Example Handheld Mnemonics

STR X0
14 X0 X1

Parallel Elements
You may also have to join contacts in parallel. The OR instruction allows you to do this. The
following example shows two contacts in parallel and a single output coil. The instructions
1
would be STR X0, OR X1, followed by OUT Y0.

Joining Series Branches in Parallel
Quite often it is necessary to join several groups of series elements in parallel. The Or Store 6
(ORSTR) instruction allows this operation. The following example shows a simple network
consisting of series elements joined in parallel.

Comparative Boolean
1 Some PLC manufacturers make it really difficult to do a simple comparison of two numbers.
Some of them require you to move the data all over the place before you can actually perform
the comparison. The DL205 Micro PLCs provide Comparative Boolean instructions that
2 allow you to quickly and easily solve this problem. The Comparative Boolean provides
evaluation of two 4-digit values using boolean contacts. The valid evaluations are: equal to,
3 not equal to, equal to or greater than, and less than.
V1400 K1234 Y3
In the example when the BCD value in V-memory
4 location V1400 is equal to the constant value 1234,
Y3 will energize.
OUT

5 Boolean Stack
There are limits to how many elements you can include in a rung. This is because the DL205
CPUs use an 8-level boolean stack to evaluate the various logic elements. The boolean stack is
6 a temporary storage area that solves the logic for the rung. Each time you enter a STR
instruction, the instruction is placed on the top of the boolean stack. Any other STR
7 instructions on the boolean stack are pushed down a level. The ANDSTR, and ORSTR
instructions combine levels of the boolean stack when they are encountered. Since the
8 boolean stack is only eight levels, an error will occur if the CPU encounters a rung that uses
more than the eight levels of the boolean stack.
The following example shows how the boolean stack is used to solve boolean logic.

Immediate Boolean
The DL205 Micro PLCs can usually complete an operation cycle in a matter of milliseconds.
However, in some applications you may not be able to wait a few milliseconds until the next
1
I/O update occurs. The DL205 PLCs offer Immediate input and outputs which are special
boolean instructions that allow reading directly from inputs and writing directly to outputs 2
during the program execution portion of the CPU cycle. You may recall that this is normally
done during the input or output update portion of the CPU cycle. The immediate
instructions take longer to execute because the program execution is interrupted while the
3
CPU reads or writes the I/O point. This function is not normally done until the read inputs
or the write outputs portion of the CPU cycle. 4
NOTE: Even though the immediate input instruction reads the most current status from the input point, it
only uses the results to solve that one instruction. It does not use the new status to update the image
5
register. Therefore, any regular instructions that follow will still use the image register values. Any
immediate instructions that follow will access the I/O again to update the status. The immediate output
instruction will write the status to the I/O and update the image register.

Store Positive Differential (STRPD)

 230 The Store Positive Differential instruction begins a
new rung or an additional branch in a rung with a
Aaaa 1
 240 contact. The contact closes for one CPU scan when
 250-1 the state of the associated image register point makes 2
 260 an Off-to-On transition. Thereafter, the contact
remains open until the next Off-to-On transition (the
symbol inside the contact represents the transition). This function is sometimes called a “one-
3
shot”. 'This contact will also close on a program-to-run transition if it is within a retentative
range and on before the PLC mode transition. 4
Store Negative Differential (STRND)
 230 The Store Negative Differential instruction begins a
5
 240 new rung or an additional branch in a rung with a
 250-1 contact. The contact closes for one CPU scan when Aaaa 6
 260 the state of the associated image register point makes
an On-to-Off transition. Thereafter, the contact
remains open until the next On-to-Off transition

Using Timers
Timers are used to time an event for a desired length of time. The single input timer will time
as long as the input is on. When the input changes from on to off the timer current value is
2
reset to 0. There is a tenth of a second and a hundredth of a second timer available with a
maximum time of 999.9 and 99.99 seconds respectively. There is a discrete bit associated with 3
each timer to indicate that the current value is equal to or greater than the preset value. The
timing diagram below shows the relationship between the timer input, associated discrete bit, 4
current value, and timer preset.

There are those applications that need an accumulating timer, meaning it has the ability to
time, stop, and then resume from where it previously stopped. The accumulating timer works
10
similarly to the regular timer, but two inputs are required. The enable input starts and stops
the timer. When the timer stops, the elapsed time is maintained. When the timer starts again, 11
the timing continues from the elapsed time. When the reset input is turned on, the elapsed
time is cleared and the timer will start at 0 when it is restarted. There is a tenth of a second
and a hundredth of a second timer available with a maximum time of 9999999.9 and
12
999999.99 seconds respectively. The timing diagram below shows the relationship between
the timer input, timer reset, associated discrete bit, current value, and timer preset. 13

reference with the HPP. DirectSOFT uses separate references, such as “T2” for discrete status bit for Timer
B T2, and “TA2” for the current value of Timer T2.

You can perform functions when the timer reaches the specified preset using the discrete
C status bit. Or, use the comparative contacts to perform functions at different time intervals
based on one timer. The examples on the following page show these methods of
D programming timers.

Up/Down Counter Example Using Comparative Contacts
In the following example, when X1 makes an off to on transition, counter CT2 will 10
increment by one. Comparative contacts are used to energize Y3 and Y4 at different counts.
When the reset (X3) turns on, the counter status bit will turn off, the current value will be 0,
and the comparative contacts will turn off.

• Clock — shifts the bits one position on each low to high
transition
5 • Reset —resets the Shift Register to all zeros.
With each off to on transition of the clock input, the bits which make up the shift register
6 block are shifted by one bit position and the status of the data input is placed into the starting
bit position in the shift register. The direction of the shift depends on the entry in the From
and To fields. From C0 to C17 would define a block of sixteen bits to be shifted from left to
7 right. From C17 to C0 would define a block of sixteen bits, to be shifted from right to left.
The maximum size of the shift register block depends on the number of available control
8 relays. The minimum block size is 8 control relays.

Accumulator/Stack Load and Output Data Instructions

1
Using the Accumulator
The accumulator in the DL205 series CPUs is a 32-bit register which is used as a temporary
storage location for data that is being copied or manipulated in some manner. For example,
2
you have to use the accumulator to perform math operations, such as, add, subtract, multiply,
etc.. Since there are 32 bits, you can use up to an 8-digit BCD number, or a 32-bit 2’s 3
compliment number. The accumulator is reset to 0 at the end of every CPU scan.
Copying Data to the Accumulator 4
The Load and Out instructions and their variations are used to copy data from a V-memory
location to the accumulator, or to copy data from the accumulator to V-memory. The 5
following example copies data from V-memory location V1400 to V-memory location
V1410. 6

Since the accumulator is 32 bits and V-memory locations are 16 bits, the Load Double and
11
Out Double (or variations thereof ) use two consecutive V-memory locations or 8-digit BCD
constants to copy data either to the accumulator from a V-memory address or from a V- 12
memory address to the accumulator. For example, if you wanted to copy data from V1400
and V1401 to V1410 and V1411 the most efficient way to perform this function would be as
follows:

 Chapter 5: Standard RLL Instructions - Accumulator/Stack Load and Output Data

Using the Accumulator Stack

1 The accumulator stack is used for instructions that require more than one parameter to
execute a function or for user defined functionality. The accumulator stack is used when more
than one Load instruction is executed without the use of an Out instruction. The first load
2 instruction in the scan places a value into the accumulator. Every Load instruction thereafter
without the use of an Out instruction places a value into the accumulator and the value that
3 was in the accumulator is placed onto the accumulator stack. The Out instruction nullifies
the previous load instruction and does not place the value that was in the accumulator onto
the accumulator stack when the next load instruction is executed. Every time a value is placed
4 onto the accumulator stack the other values in the stack are pushed down one location. The
accumulator is eight levels deep (eight 32-bit registers). If there is a value in the eighth
5 location when a new value is placed onto the stack, the value in the eighth location is pushed
off the stack and cannot be recovered.

 Chapter 5: Standard RLL Instructions - Accumulator/Stack Load and Output Data

Using Pointers
Many of the DL205 series instructions will allow V-memory pointers as a operand. Pointers
can be useful in ladder logic programming, but can be difficult to understand or implement
1
in your application if you do not have prior experience with pointers (commonly known as
indirect addressing). Pointers allow instructions to obtain data from V-memory locations 2
referenced by the pointer value.
NOTE: In the DL205 V-memory addressing is in octal. However the value in the pointer location which will
3
reference a V-memory location is viewed as HEX. Use the Load Address instruction to move an address
into the pointer location. This instruction performs the Octal to Hexadecimal conversion for you. 4
The following example uses a pointer operand in a Load instruction. V-memory location
3000 is the pointer location. V3000 contains the value 400 which is the HEX equivalent of 5
the Octal address V-memory location V2000. The CPU copies the data from V2000 into the
lower word of the accumulator. 6

use a minus (–) after the “R”. LDR

A These real numbers are in the IEEE 32-bit floating point format, so they occupy two V-
memory locations, regardless of how big or small the number may be! If you view a stored real
number in hex, binary, or even BCD, the number shown will be very difficult to decipher.
B Just like all other number types, you must keep track of real number locations in memory, so
they can be read with the proper instructions later.
C The previous example above stored a real number in V1400
and V1401. Suppose that now we want to retrieve that
number. Just use the Load Real with the V data type, as
D shown to the right. Next we could perform real math on it,

Add Binary (ADDB)

The Add Binary instruction adds a 16-bit number (Aaaa) to
 230 the value stored in the accumulator. The number in the ADDB
1
 240 accumulator can be up to 32 bits long. The source of the A aaa
 250-1 16-bit operand can be a constant or a data value located in 2
 260 V-memory. Add Binary performs the addition operation on
the full binary representation of the operands, which distinguishes it from the Add
instruction (see page 5-88), which treats the operands as BCD numbers. Although the 3
DS Used
addition operation is performed on the underlying binary values, the native display format is
HPP Used
hexadecimal. For that reason you will need to load constants in hex. 4
The sum of the Add Binary operation occupies the full 32-bit accumulator and requires an
Out Double to move the sum to V-memory. If the value in the accumulator occupies fewer
than 32 bits, leading zeros are loaded in the left-most empty bit positions.

 Chapter 5: Standard RLL Instructions - Transcendental Functions

Transcendental Functions (DL260 only)

The DL260 CPU features special numerical functions to complement its real number 1
 230 capability. The transcendental functions include the trigonometric sine, cosine, and tangent,
 240 and also their inverses (arc sine, arc cosine, and arc tangent). The square root function is also 2
 250-1 grouped with these other functions.
 260 The transcendental math instructions operate on a real number in the accumulator (it cannot 3
be BCD or binary). The real number result resides in the accumulator. The square root
DS Used function operates on the full range of positive real numbers. The sine, cosine and tangent
HPP N/A functions require numbers expressed in radians. You can work with angles expressed in 4
degrees by first converting them to radians with the Radian (RADR) instruction, then
performing the trig function. All transcendental functions utilize the following flag bits. 5
Discrete Bit Flags Description
SP63
SP70
On when the result of the instruction causes the value in the accumulator to be zero.
On anytime the value in the accumulator is negative.
6
SP72
SP73
On anytime the value in the accumulator is a valid floating point number.
On when a signed addition or subtraction results in a incorrect sign bit.
7
SP75 On when a real number instruction is executed and a non-real number was encountered.

Math Function Range of Argument

8
SP53 On when the value of the operand is larger than the accumulator can work with.
Sine Real (SINR)
9
The Sine Real instruction takes the sine of the real number
stored in the accumulator. The result resides in the SINR 10
accumulator. Both the original number and the result are in
IEEE 32-bit format. 11
Cosine Real (COSR)
The Cosine Real instruction takes the cosine of the real 12
number stored in the accumulator. The result resides in the COSR
accumulator. Both the original number and the result are in
IEEE 32-bit format.
13
Tangent Real (TANR)
The Tangent Real instruction takes the tangent of the real
14
number stored in the accumulator. The result resides in the TANR
accumulator. Both the original number and the result are in A
IEEE 32-bit format.
Arc Sine Real (ASINR) B
The Arc Sine Real instruction takes the inverse sine of the real ASINR
number stored in the accumulator. The result resides in the C
accumulator. Both the original number and the result are in
IEEE 32-bit format. D

DL205 User Manual, 4th Edition, Rev. A 5–121

 Chapter 5: Standard RLL Instructions - Transcendental Functions

Arc Cosine Real (ACOSR)

1 The Arc Cosine Real instruction takes the inverse cosine of the
real number stored in the accumulator. The result resides in the
ACOSR

accumulator. Both the original number and the result are in

2 IEEE 32-bit format.
Arc Tangent Real (ATANR)
3 The Arc Tangent Real instruction takes the inverse tangent of ATANR
the real number stored in the accumulator. The result resides in
4 the accumulator. Both the original number and the result are in
IEEE 32-bit format.
5 Square Root Real (SQRTR)
The Square Root Real instruction takes the square root of the SQRTR
6 real number stored in the accumulator. The result resides in the
accumulator. Both the original number and the result are in
IEEE 32-bit format.
7
NOTE: The square root function can be useful in several situations. However, if you are trying to do the
8 square-root extract function for an orifice flow meter measurement as the PV to a PID loop, note that the
PID loop already has the square-root extract function built in.

9 DS Used
The following example takes the sine of 45 degrees. Since these transcendental functions
operate only on real numbers, we do a LDR (Load Real) 45. The trig functions operate only
HPP N/A in radians, so we must convert the degrees to radians by using the RADR command. After
10 using the SINR (Sine Real) instruction, we use an OUTD (Out Double) instruction to move
the result from the accumulator to V-memory. The result is 32-bits wide, requiring the Out
11 Double to move it.

Encode (ENCO)
1  230 The Encode instruction encodes the bit position in the
accumulator having a value of 1, and returns the appropriate ENCO
 240 binary representation. If the most significant bit is set to 1 (Bit
2  250-1 31), the Encode instruction would place the value HEX 1F
 260 (decimal 31) in the accumulator. If the value to be encoded is
3 DS Used
0000 or 0001, the instruction will place a zero in the
accumulator. If the value to be encoded has more than one bit
position set to a “1”, the least significant “1” will be encoded
4 HPP Used
and SP53 will be set on.
Discrete Bit Flags Description
5 SP53 On when the value of the operand is larger than the accumulator can work with.

6 NOTE: The status flags are only valid until another instruction that uses the same flags is executed.

In the following example, when X1 is on, The value in V2000 is loaded into the accumulator
7 using the Load instruction. The bit position set to a “1” in the accumulator is encoded to the
corresponding 5 bit binary value using the Encode instruction. The value in the lower 16 bits

SP74 On anytime a floating point math operation results in an underflow error.

10 SP75 On when a BCD instruction is executed and a NON-BCD number was encountered.

NOTE: The current HPP does not support real number entry with automatic conversion to the 32-bit IEEE
11 format. You must use DirectSOFT for entering real numbers, using the LDR (Load Real) instruction.

The following example takes the sine of 45 degrees. Since transcendental functions operate
12 only on real numbers, we do a LDR (Load Real) 45. The trig functions operate only in
radians, so we must convert the degrees to radians by using the RADR command. After using
the SINR (Sine Real) instruction, we use an OUTD (Out Double) instruction to move the

Gray Code (GRAY)

 230 The Gray code instruction converts a 16-bit gray code value to
a BCD value. The BCD conversion requires 10 bits of the

 240 accumulator. The upper 22 bits are set to “0”. This instruction
 250-1 is designed for use with devices (typically encoders) that use 2
 260 the grey code numbering scheme. The Gray Code instruction
will directly convert a gray code number to a BCD number for
devices having a resolution of 512 or 1024 counts per
3
DS Used
revolution. If a device having a resolution of 360 counts per
HPP Used
revolution is to be used you must subtract a BCD value of 76 4
from the converted value to obtain the proper result. For a
device having a resolution of 720 counts per revolution you
must subtract a BCD value of 152.

Shuffle Digits (SFLDGT)

1  230 The Shuffle Digits instruction shuffles a maximum of 8 digits
rearranging them in a specified order. This function requires
SFLDGT
 240 parameters to be loaded into the first level of the accumulator
2  250-1 stack and the accumulator with two additional instructions.
 260 Listed below are the steps necessary to use the shuffle digit
3 function. The example on the following page shows a program for the Shuffle Digits
function.
4 DS Used
HPP Used
Step 1: Load the value (digits) to be shuffled into the first level of the accumulator stack.
Step 2: Load the order that the digits will be shuffled to into the accumulator.

5 Step 3: Insert the SFLDGT instruction.

NOTE: If the number used to specify the order contains a 0 or 9–F, the corresponding position will be set to
6 0.

See example on the next page.

7 NOTE: If the number used to specify the order contains duplicate numbers, the most significant duplicate
number is valid. The result resides in the accumulator.

will be reorganized in the order specified by the value in the accumulator.
Example A shows how the shuffle digits works when 0 or 9 –F is not used when specifying
1
the order the digits are to be shuffled. Also, there are no duplicate numbers in the specified
order. 2
Example B shows how the shuffle digits works when a 0 or 9–F is used when specifying the

that is two words long, as shown to the right. Each word MSB LSB

in the table contains 16 bits, or 0 to 17 in octal. To set bit 1

12 in the second word, we use its octal reference (bit 14). 16 bits

Then we compute the bit’s octal address from the start of V3001

the table, so 17 + 14 = 34 octal. The following program MSB LSB

Find (FIND)
 230 The Find instruction is used to search for a specified value in a
V-memory table of up to 255 locations. The function FIND 1
 240 parameters are loaded into the first and second levels of the A aaa
 250-1 accumulator stack and the accumulator by three additional 2
 260 instructions. Listed below are the steps necessary to program
the Find function. 3
DS Used Step 1: Load the length of the table (number of V-memory locations) into the second level of the
HPP Used accumulator stack. This parameter must be a HEX value, 0 to FFFF.
Step 2: Load the starting V-memory location for the table into the first level of the accumulator stack.
4
This parameter must be a HEX value.
Step 3: Load the offset from the starting location to begin the search. This parameter must be a HEX 5
value.
Step 4: Insert the Find instruction which specifies the first value to be found in the table. 6
Results: The offset from the starting address to the first V-memory location which contains the search
value is returned to the accumulator as a HEX value. SP53 will be set on if an address outside
the table is specified in the offset or the value is not found. If the value is not found 0 will be
7
returned in the accumulator.
Helpful hint: — For parameters that require HEX values when referencing memory locations,
8
the LDA instruction can be used to convert an octal address to the HEX equivalent and load
the value into the accumulator. 9

accumulator using the Load instruction. The value to be found in the table is specified in the C
Find instruction. If a value is found equal to the search value, the offset (from the starting
location of the table) where the value is located will reside in the accumulator. D

Table to Destination (TTD)

1  230 The Table To Destination instruction moves a value from a
V-memory table to a V-memory location and increments the
TTD
 240 table pointer by 1. The first V-memory location in the table
Vaaa
2  250-1 contains the table pointer which indicates the next location in
 260 the table to be moved. The instruction will be executed once
3 per scan provided the input remains on. The table pointer will
reset to 1 when the value equals the last location in the table.
DS Used
The function parameters are loaded into the first level of the
4 HPP Used
accumulator stack and the accumulator by two additional
instructions. Listed below are the steps necessary to program
5 the Table To Destination function.
Step 1: Load the length of the data table (number of V-memory locations) into the first level of the
6 accumulator stack. This parameter must be a HEX value, 0 to FF.
Step 2: Load the starting V-memory location for the table into the accumulator. (Remember, the
starting location of the table is used as the table pointer.) This parameter must be a HEX
7 value.
Step 3: Insert the TTD instruction which specifies destination V-memory location (Vaaa).
8 Helpful hint: — For parameters that require HEX values when referencing memory locations,
the LDA instruction can be used to convert an octal address to the HEX equivalent and load
9 the value into the accumulator.
Helpful hint: — The instruction will be executed every scan if the input logic is on. If you do
10 not want the instruction to execute for more than one scan, a one shot (PD) should be used
in the input logic.
11 Helpful hint: — The pointer location should be set to the value where the table operation
will begin. The special relay SP0 or a one shot (PD) should be used so the value will only be
set in one scan and will not affect the instruction operation.

 Chapter 5: Standard RLL Instructions - Table

Source to Table (STT)

1  230 The Source To Table instruction moves a value from a
V-memory location into a V-memory table and increments a
ST T
 240 table pointer by 1. When the table pointer reaches the end of
V aaa
2  250-1 the table, it resets to 1. The first V-memory location in the
 260 table contains the table pointer which indicates the next
3 location in the table to store a value. The instruction will be
executed once per scan provided the input remains on. The
DS Used
function parameters are loaded into the first level of the
4 HPP Used
accumulator stack and the accumulator with two additional
instructions. Listed below are the steps necessary to program
5 the Source To Table function.
Step 1: Load the length of the table (number of V-memory locations) into the firstlevel of the
6 accumulator stack. This parameter must be a HEX value, 0 to FF.
Step 2:Load the starting V-memory location for the table into the accumulator. (Remember, the
starting location of the table is used as the table pointer.) This parameter must be a HEX
7 value.
Step 3:Insert the STT instruction which specifies the source V-memory location (Vaaa). This is where
8 the value will be moved from.
Helpful hint: — For parameters that require HEX values when referencing memory locations,
9 the LDA instruction can be used to convert an octal address to the HEX equivalent and load
the value into the accumulator.
10 Helpful hint: — The instruction will be executed every scan if the input logic is on. If you do
not want the instruction to execute for more than one scan, a one shot (PD) should be used
in the input logic.
11 Helpful hint: — The table counter value should be set to indicate the starting point for the
operation. Also, it must be set to a value that is within the length of the table. For example, if
12 the table is 6 words long, then the allowable range of values that could be in the pointer
should be between 0 and 6. If the value is outside of this range, the data will not be moved.
13 Also, a one shot (PD) should be used so the value will only be set in one scan and will not
affect the instruction operation.

In the following example, when X1 is on, the constant value (K6) is loaded into the
accumulator using the Load instruction. This value specifies the length of the table and is
placed in the first stack location after the Load Address instruction is executed. The octal 1
address 1400 (V1400), which is the starting location for the destination table and table
pointer, is loaded into the accumulator. The data source location (V1500) is specified in the 2
Source to Table instruction. The table pointer will be increased by “1” after each time the

The following diagram shows the scan-by-scan results of the execution for our example
program. Notice how the pointer automatically cycles from 0 to 6, and then starts over at 1
1 instead of 0. Also, notice how SP56 is affected by the execution. Although our example does
not show it, we are assuming that there is another part of the program that changes the value
2 in V1500 (data source) prior to the execution of the STT instruction. This is not required,
but it makes it easier to see how the data source is copied into the table.

Remove from Table (RFT)

 230 The Remove From Table instruction pops a value off of a table
and stores it in a V-memory location. When a value is removed RFT 1
 240 from the table all other values are shifted up 1 location. The V aaa
 250-1 first V-memory location in the table contains the table length 2
 260 counter. The table counter decrements by 1 each time the
instruction is executed. If the length counter is zero or greater
than the maximum table length (specified in the first level of
3
DS Used
the accumulator stack) the instruction will not execute and
HPP Used
SP56 will be on. 4
The instruction will be executed once per scan provided the input remains on. The function
parameters are loaded into the first level of the accumulator stack and the accumulator by two 5
additional instructions. Listed below are the steps necessary to program the Remove From
Table function. 6
Step 1: Load the length of the table (number of V-memory locations) into the first level of the
accumulator stack. This parameter must be a HEX value, 0 to FF.
Step 2: Load the starting V-memory location for the table into the accumulator. (Remember, the
7
starting location of the table is used as the table length counter.) This parameter must be a
HEX value. 8
Step 3: Insert the RFT instructions which specifies destination V-memory location (Vaaa). This is
where the value will be moved to. 9
Helpful hint: — For parameters that require HEX values when referencing memory locations,
the LDA instruction can be used to convert an octal address to the HEX equivalent and load
the value into the accumulator.
10
Helpful hint: — The instruction will be executed every scan if the input logic is on. If you do
not want the instruction to execute for more than one scan, a one shot (PD) should be used
11
in the input logic.
Helpful hint: — The table counter value should be set to indicate the starting point for the 12
operation. Also, it must be set to a value that is within the length of the table. For example, if
the table is 6 words long, then the allowable range of values that could be in the table counter
should be between 1 and 6. If the value is outside of this range or zero, the data will not be
13
moved from the table. Also, a one shot (PD) should be used so the value will only be set in

Add to Top (ATT)

1  230
The Add To Top instruction pushes a value onto a V-memory
table from a V-memory location. When the value is added to
ATT
V aaa
2  240 the table all other values are pushed down 1 location.
 250-1 The instruction will be executed once per scan provided the input remains on. The function
 260 parameters are loaded into the first level of the accumulator stack and the accumulator by two
3 additional instructions. Listed below are the steps necessary to program the Add To Top
function.
4 DS Used
Step 1: Load the length of the table (number of V-memory locations) into the first level of the
accumulator stack. This parameter must be a HEX value, 0 to FF.
HPP Used
5 Step 2: Load the starting V-memory location for the table into the accumulator. (Remember, the
starting location of the table is used as the table length counter.) This parameter must be a
HEX value.
6 Step 3: Insert the ATT instruction which specifies source V-memory location (Vaaa). This is where
the value will be moved from.
7 Helpful hint: — For parameters that require HEX values when referencing memory locations,
the LDA instruction can be used to convert an octal address to the HEX equivalent and load
8 the value into the accumulator.
Helpful hint: — The instruction will be executed every scan if the input logic is on. If you do
not want the instruction to execute for more than one scan, a one shot (PD) should be used
9 in the input logic.
Helpful hint: — The table counter value should be set to indicate the starting point for the
10 operation. Also, it must be set to a value that is within the length of the table. For example, if
the table is 6 words long, then the allowable range of values that could be in the table counter
11 should be between 1 and 6. If the value is outside of this range or zero, the data will not be
moved into the table. Also, a one shot (PD) should be used so the value will only be set in
one scan and will not affect the instruction operation.

In the following example, when X1 is on, the constant value (K6) is loaded into the
accumulator using the Load instruction. This value specifies the length of the table and is
placed in the first stack location after the Load Address instruction is executed. The octal 1
address 1400 (V1400), which is the starting location for the destination table and table
counter, is loaded into the accumulator. The source location (V1500) is specified in the Add 2
to Top instruction. The table counter will be increased by “1” after the instruction is
executed.

The following diagram shows the scan-by-scan results of the execution for our example
program. The table counter is set to 2 initially, and it will automatically increment from 2 to
1 6 as the instruction is executed. Notice how SP56 comes on when the table counter is 6,
which is equal to the table length. Plus, although our example does not show it, we are
2 assuming that there is another part of the program that changes the value in V1500 (data

 260 The following description applies to both the Table Shift Left and Table Shift Right
instructions. A table is a range of V-memory locations. The Table Shift Left and Table Shift
Right instructions shift bits serially throughout the entire table. Bits are shifted out the end of 6
one word and into the opposite end of an adjacent word. At the ends of the table, bits are
either discarded, or zeros are shifted into the table. The example tables below are arbitrarily
four words long.

Step 1: Load the length of the table (number of V-memory locations) into the first level of the

Step 2: Load the starting V-memory location for the table into the accumulator. This parameter must
be a HEX value. You can use the LDA instruction to convert an octal address to hex. 13
Step 3: Insert the Table Shift Left or Table Shift Right instruction. This specifies the number of bit
positions you wish to shift the entire table. The number of bit positions must be in octal. 14
Helpful hint: — Remember that each V-memory location contains 16 bits. The bits of the
first word of the table are numbered from 0 to 17 octal. If you want to shift the entire table
by 20 bits, that is 24 octal. Flag 53 will be set if the number of bits to be shifted is larger than

The following ladder example assumes the data at V3000 to V3004 already exists as shown
8 above. We will use input X0 to trigger the Table Shift Right operation. First, we will load the
table length (5 words) into the accumulator stack. Next, we load the starting address into the
accumulator. Since V3000 is an octal number we have to convert it to hex by using the LDA

be shifted (12 decimal), which is 14 octal.

Reset Watch Dog Timer (RSTWT)

1  230
The Reset Watch Dog Timer instruction resets the CPU scan
timer. The default setting for the watch dog timer is 200ms. RSTWT

2  240 Scan times very seldom exceed 200ms, but it is possible.

 250-1 For/next loops, subroutines, interrupt routines, and table
 260 instructions can be programmed such that the scan becomes
3 longer than 200ms. When instructions are used in a manner
that could exceed the watch dog timer setting, this instruction
can be used to reset the timer.
4 DS Used
HPP Used A software timeout error (E003) will occur and the CPU will enter the program mode if the
scan time exceeds the watch dog timer setting. Placement of the RSTWT instruction in the
5 program is very important. The instruction has to be executed before the scan time exceeds
the watch dog timer’s setting.
6 If the scan time is consistently longer than the watch dog timer’s setting, the timeout value
may be permanently increased from the default value of 200ms by AUX 55 on the HPP or
7 the appropriate auxiliary function in your programming package. This eliminates the need for
the RSTWT instruction.

8 In the following example the CPU scan timer will be reset to 0 when the RSTWT instruction
is executed. See the For/Next instruction for a detailed example.

Interrupt Instructions
1
Interrupt (INT)
 230
The Interrupt instruction allows a section of ladder logic to
be placed outside the main body of the program and INT O aaa
2
 240 executed when needed. Interrupts can be called from the
 250-1 program or by external interrupts via the counter interface 3
 260 module (D2–CTRINT), which provides 4 interrupts.
4
DS Used The software interrupt uses interrupt #00 which means the hardware interrupt #0 and the
HPP Used software interrupt cannot be used together. 5
Typically, interrupts will be used in an application where a fast response to an input is needed
or a program section needs to execute faster than the normal CPU scan. The interrupt label 6
and all associated logic must be placed after the End statement in the program. When the
interrupt routine is called from the interrupt module or software interrupt, the CPU will
complete execution of the instruction it is currently processing in ladder logic, then execute
7
the designated interrupt routine. Interrupt module interrupts are labeled in octal to
correspond with the hardware input signal (X1 will initiate interrupt INT1). There is only 8
one software interrupt and it is labeled INT 0. The program execution will continue from
where it was before the interrupt occurred once the interrupt is serviced. 9
The software interrupt is setup by programming the interrupt time in V7634. The valid range
is 3 to 999 ms. The value must be a BCD value. The interrupt will not execute if the value is
out of range.

Interrupt Return (IRT)

1  230
When an Interrupt Return is executed in the interrupt routine, the
CPU will return to the point in the main body of the program from
 240 which it was called. The Interrupt Return is programmed as the last
IRT
2  250-1 instruction in an interrupt routine and is a stand alone instruction
 260 (no input contact on the rung).
3 Interrupt Return Conditional (IRTC)
The Interrupt Return Conditional instruction is a optional
4  230 instruction used with an input contact to implement a condtional IRTC
 240 return from the interrupt routine. The Interrupt Return is required to
5  250-1 terminate the interrupt routine.
 260 Enable Interrupts (ENI)
6 The Enable Interrupt instruction is programmed in the main body of
 230 the application program (before the End instruction) to enable ENI
 240 hardware or software interrupts. Once the coil has been energized,
7  250-1 interrupts will be enabled until they are disabled by the Disable
 260 Interrupt instruction.
8 Disable Interrupts (DISI)
The Disable Interrupt instruction is programmed in the main body of
9  230 the application program (before the End instruction) to disable both DISI
 240 hardware or software interrupts. Once the coil has been energized,
10  250-1 interrupts will be disabled until they are enabled by the Enable
 260 Interrupt instruction.

1 In the following example, when X1 is on, the value 10 is copied to V7634. This value sets the
software interrupt to 10 ms. When X20 turns on, the interrupt will be enabled. When X20

Port 2 on the DL250–1/260 has standard RS232 levels, and should work with most printer
serial input connections.
1 Text element - this is used for printing character strings. The character strings are defined as
the character (more than 0) ranged by the double quotation marks. Two hex numbers
2 preceded by the dollar sign means an 8-bit ASCII character code. Also, two characters
preceded by the dollar sign is interpreted according to the following table:
3 # Character code Description
1 $$ Dollar sign ($)
4 2 $” Double quotation (“)
3 $L or $1 Line feed (LF)
5 4
5
$N or $n
$P or $p
Carriage return line feed (CRLF)
Form feed
6 $R or $r Carriage return (CR)
6 7 $T or $t Tab

The following examples show various syntax conventions and the length of the output to the
7 printer.
Example:
8 ” ” Length 0 without character
”A” Length 1 with character A
9 ” ” Length 1 with blank
10 ” $” ” Length 1 with double quotation mark
”$R$L” Length 2 with one CR and one LF
11 ”$0D$0A” Length 2 with one CR and one LF
”$$” Length 1 with one $ mark
12 In printing an ordinary line of text, you will need to include double quotation marks before
and after the text string. Error code 499 will occur in the CPU when the print instruction
13 contains invalid text or no quotations. It is important to test your PRINT instruction data
during the application development.
The following example prints the message to port 2. We use a PD contact, which causes the
14 message instruction to be active for just one scan. Note the $N at the end of the message,
which produces a carriage return / line feed on the printer. This prepares the printer to print
A the next line, starting from the left margin.

“Hello, this is a PLC message.$N” X1 makes an off-to-on transition.

V-memory element – this is used for printing V-memory contents in the integer format or
real format. Use V-memory number or V-memory number with “:” and data type. The data
types are shown in the table below. The Character code must be capital letters. 1
NOTE: There must be a space entered before and after the V-memory address to separate it from the text
string. Failure to do this will result in an error code 499.

Example: The following example prints a message containing text and a variable. The “reactor
temperature” labels the data, which is at V2000. You can use the : B qualifier after the V2000
if the data is in BCD format, for example. The final string adds the units of degrees to the
11
line of text, and the $N adds a carriage return / line feed.

14
V-memory text element – this is used for printing text stored in V-memory. Use the %
followed by the number of characters after V-memory number for representing the text. If A
you assign “0” as the number of characters, the print function will read the character count
from the first location. Then it will start at the next V-memory location and read that number
of ASCII codes for the text from memory.

Example:
V2000 % 16 16 characters in V2000 to V2007 are printed.
C
V2000 % 0 The characters in V2001 to Vxxxx (determined by the number in
V2000) will be printed.

DL260 port 2 has two Special Relay contacts associated with it (see Appendix D for comm
6
port special relays). One indicates “Port busy” (SP116), and the other indicates ”Port
Communication Error” (SP117). The “Port Busy” bit is on while the PLC communicates 7
with the slave. When the bit is off the program can initiate the next network request. The
“Port Communication Error” bit turns on when the PLC has detected an error. Use of this bit 8
is optional. When used, it should be ahead of any network instruction boxes since the error
bit is reset when an MRX or MWX instruction is executed.
Typically network communications will last longer than one CPU scan. The program must

wait for the communications to finish before starting the next transaction.

DL260 port 2 has two Special Relay contacts associated with it (see Appendix D for comm
7 port special relays). One indicates “Port busy” (SP116), and the other indicates ”Port
Communication Error” (SP117). The “Port Busy” bit is on while the PLC communicates
with the slave. When the bit is off the program can initiate the next network request. The

ASCII Instructions (DL260)

The DL260 CPU supports several instructions and methods that allow ASCII strings to be 1
 230 read into and written from the PLC communications ports.
 240 Specifically, port 2 on the DL260 can be used for either reading or writing raw ASCII strings, 2
 250-1 but cannot be used for both on the same CPU.
 260 The DL260 can also decipher ASCII embedded within a supported protocol (K–Sequence, 3
DirectNET, Modbus, Ethernet) via the CPU ports, H2–ECOM or D2–DCM module.
DS Used
HPP N/A ASCII character tables and descriptions can be found at www.asciitable.com. 4
Reading ASCII Input Strings
There are several methods which the DL260 can use to read ASCII input strings: 5
1) ASCII IN (AIN) – This instruction configures port 2 for raw ASCII input strings with parameters
such as fixed and variable length ASCII strings, termination characters, byte swapping options, and
instruction control bits. Use barcode scanners, weight scales, etc. to write raw ASCII input strings
6
into port 2 based on the (AIN) instruction’s parameters.
2) Write embedded ASCII strings directly to V–memory from an external HMI or similar master
7
device via a supported communications protocol using the CPU ports, H2–ECOM or D2–DCM.
The AIN instruction is not used in this case. 8
3) If a DL260 PLC is a master on a network, the Network Read instruction (RX) can be used to read
embedded ASCII data from a slave device via a supported communications protocol using port 2,
H2–ECOM or D2–DCM. The RX instruction places the data directly into V–memory. 9
Writing ASCII Output Strings 10
The following instructions can be used to write ASCII output strings:
1) Print from V–memory (PRINTV) – Use this instruction to write raw ASCII strings out of port 2
to a display panel or a serial printer, etc. The instruction features the starting V–memory address, 11
string length, byte swapping options, etc. When the instruction’s permissive bit is enabled, the
string is written to port 2.
2) Print to V–memory (VPRINT) – Use this instruction to create pre–coded ASCII strings in the
12
PLC (i.e. alarm messages). When the instruction’s permissive bit is enabled, the message is loaded
into a pre–defined V–memory address location. Then use the PRINTV instruction to write the 13
pre–coded ASCII string out of port 2. American, European and Asian Time/Date stamps are
supported. 14
Additionally, if a DL260 PLC is a master on a network, the Network Write instruction (WX)
can be used to write embedded ASCII data to an HMI or slave device directly from
A
V–memory via a supported communications protocol using port 2, H2–ECOM or
D2–DCM. B

Managing the ASCII Strings

1 The following instructions can be helpful in managing the ASCII strings within the CPUs
V-memory:
2 ASCII Find (AFIND) – Finds where a specific portion of the ASCII string is located in
continuous V-memory addresses. Forward and reverse searches are supported.
ASCII Extract (AEX) – Extracts a specific portion (usually some data value) from the ASCII
3 find location or other known ASCII data location.
Compare V-memory (CMPV) – This instruction is used to compare two blocks of
4 V-memory addresses and is usually used to detect a change in an ASCII string. Compared
data types must be of the same format (i.e. BCD, ASCII, etc.).
5 Swap Bytes (SWAPB) – usually used to swap V-memory bytes on ASCII data that was
written directly to V-memory from an external HMI or similar master device via a
6 communications protocol. The AIN and AEX instructions have a built–in byte swap feature.

7 ASCII Input (AIN)

The ASCII Input instruction allows the CPU to receive ASCII strings through the specified
8  230 communications port and places the string into a series of specified V-memory registers. The
 240 ASCII data can be received as a fixed number of bytes or as a variable length string with a
9  250-1 specified termination character(s). Other features include, Byte Swap preferences, Character
 260 Timeout, and user defined flag bits for Busy, Complete and Timeout Error.

Intelligent Box (IBox) Instructions (DL250-1/DL260 Only)

1 A new class of instructions, called Ibox Instructions, became available with the introduction
of DirectSOFT. These powerful yet easy-to-use instructions simplify many of the more
complicated tasks that could previously be accomplished only through the use of multiple
2 RLL Instructions. The IBox Instructions are supported by DL250-1 and DL260 PLCs. The
D2-250-1 CPU requires firmware version v4.60 or later, and the D2-260 CPU requires
firmware version v2.40 or later. For more information on DirectSOFT or to download our

Off Delay Timer (OFFDTMR) (IB-302)

1 Off Delay Timer will delay the "turning off" of the Output parameter by the specified Off
Delay Time (up to 99.99 seconds) based on the power flow into the IBox. Once the IBox
 230 receives power, the Output bit will turn on
2  240 immediately. When the power flow to the
 250-1 IBox turns off, the Output bit WILL
3  260 REMAIN ON for the specified amount of
time (in hundredths of a second). Once the
Off Delay Time has expired, the output will

back on BEFORE the Off Delay Time, then
5 the timer is RESET and the Output will
remain On - so you must continuously have
NO power flow to the IBox for AT LEAST
6 the specified Off Delay Time before the Output will turn Off.
This IBox utilizes a Timer resource (TMRF), which cannot be used anywhere else in your

Math - BCD (MATHBCD) (IB-521)

1 Math - BCD Format lets you enter complex
mathematical expressions like you would in
 230 Visual Basic, Excel, or C++ to do complex
2  240 calculations, nesting parentheses up to 4 levels
 250-1 deep. In addition to + - * /, you can do Modulo
3  260 (% aka Remainder), Bit-wise And (&) Or (|)
Xor (^), and some BCD functions - Convert to
BCD (BCD), Convert to Binary (BIN), BCD
4 DS5 Used Complement (BCDCPL), Convert from Gray
HPP N/A Code (GRAY), Invert Bits (INV), and
5 BCD/HEX to Seven Segment Display (SEG).
Example: ((V2000 + V2001) / (V2003 - K100)) * GRAY(V3000 & K001F)
6 Every V-memory reference MUST be to a single-word BCD formatted value. Intermediate
results can go up to 32-bit values, but as long as the final result fits in a 16-bit BCD word, the
7 calculation is valid. Typical example of this is scaling using multiply then divide, (V2000 *
K1000) / K4095. The multiply term most likely will exceed 9999 but fits within 32 bits. The
divide operation will divide 4095 into the 32-bit accumulator, yielding a result that will
8 always fit in 16 bits.
You can reference binary V-memory values by using the BCD conversion function on a V-
9 memory location but NOT an expression. That is BCD(V2000) is okay and will convert
V2000 from Binary to BCD, but BCD(V2000 + V3000) will add V2000 as BCD, to V3000
10 as BCD, then interpret the result as Binary and convert it to BCD - NOT GOOD.
Also, the final result is a 16-bit BCD number and so you could do BIN around the entire
operation to store the result as Binary.

12 MATHBCD Parameters
• Result (WORD): specifies the location where the BCD result of the mathematical expression will be

ECOM100 Example
The ECOM100 Config IBox coordinates all of the interaction with other ECOM100 based
IBoxes (ECxxxx). You must have an ECOM100 Config IBox for each ECOM100 module in
1
your system. Configuration IBoxes must be at the top of your program and must execute
every scan. 2
This IBox defines ECOM100# K0 to be in slot 3. Any ECOM100 IBoxes that need to
reference this specific module (such as ECEMAIL, ECRX, ...) would enter K0 for their 3
ECOM100# parameter.
The Status register is for reporting any completion or error information to other ECOM100 4
IBoxes. This V-memory register must not be used anywhere else in the entire program.
The Workspace register is used to maintain state information about the ECOM100, along
with proper sharing and interlocking with the other ECOM100 IBoxes in the program. This
5
V-memory register must not be used anywhere else in the entire program.
The Message Buffer of 65 words (130 bytes) is a common pool of memory that is used by
6
other ECOM100 IBoxes (such as ECEMAIL). This way, you can have a bunch of
ECEMAIL IBoxes, but only need 1 common buffer for generating and sending each EMail. 7
These V-memory registers must not be used anywhere else in your entire program.

No permissive contact or input logic is
used with this instruction

ECOM100 Disable DHCP (ECDHCPD) (IB-736)

1 ECOM100 Disable DHCP will set up the ECOM100 to use its internal TCP/IP settings on
a leading edge transition to the IBox. To configure the ECOM100's TCP/IP settings
2  230 manually, use the NetEdit3 utility, or you can
 240 do it programmatically from your PLC
program using the ECOM100 IP Setup
 250-1
3  260
(ECIPSUP), or the individual ECOM100
IBoxes: ECOM Write IP Address (ECWRIP),
ECOM Write Gateway Address
4 DS5 Used (ECWRGWA), and ECOM100 Write Subnet
HPP N/A Mask (ECWRSNM).
5 The Workspace parameter is an internal,
private register used by this IBox and MUST
6 BE UNIQUE in this one instruction and
MUST NOT be used anywhere else in your program.
7 Either the Success or Error bit parameter will turn on once the command is complete. If there
is an error, the Error Code parameter will report an ECOM100 error code (less than 100), or
a PLC logic error (greater than 1000).
8 The "Disable DHCP" setting is stored in Flash-ROM in the ECOM100 and the execution of
this IBox will disable the ECOM100 module for at least a half second until it writes the
9 Flash-ROM. Therefore, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you only execute this IBox
ONCE, on the second scan. Since it requires a LEADING edge to execute, use a
10 NORMALLY CLOSED SP0 (STR NOT First Scan) to drive the power flow to the IBox.
In order for this ECOM100 IBox to function, you must turn ON dip switch 7 on the
ECOM100 circuit board.

ECDHCPD Example
Rung 1: The ECOM100 Config IBox is responsible for coordination/interlocking of all
ECOM100 type IBoxes for one specific ECOM100 module. Tag the ECOM100 in slot 1 as
1
ECOM100# K0. All other ECxxxx IBoxes refer to this module # as K0. If you need to move
the module in the base to a different slot, then you only need to change this one IBox. V400 2

Rung 2: On the 2nd scan, disable DHCP in the ECOM100. DHCP is the same protocol
used by PCs for using a DHCP Server to automatically assign the ECOM100's IP Address, 10
Gateway Address, and Subnet Mask. Typically disabling DHCP is done by assigning a hard-
coded IP Address either in NetEdit or using one of the ECOM100 IP Setup IBoxes, but this
IBox allows you to disable DHCP in the ECOM100 using your ladder program. The
11
ECDHCPD is leading edge triggered, not power-flow driven (similar to a counter input leg).
The command to disable DHCP will be sent to the ECOM100 whenever the power flow 12
into the IBox goes from OFF to ON. If successful, turn on C100. If there is a failure, turn on
C101. If it fails, you can look at V2000 for the specific error code. 13

11
commands to enable DHCP will be sent to the ECOM100 whenever the power flow into the

DHCP in the ECOM100, it polls the ECOM100 once every second to see if the ECOM100
has found a DHCP server and has a valid IP Address. Therefore, a timeout parameter is
needed in case the ECOM100 cannot find a DHCP server. If a timeout does occur, the Error
13
bit will turn on and the error code will be 1005 decimal. The Success bit will turn on only if
the ECOM100 finds a DHCP Server and is assigned a valid IP Address. If successful, turn on 14
C100. If there is a failure, turn on C101. If it fails, you can look at V2000 for the specific

an SMTP request to your SMTP Server to send the EMail message to the EMail addresses in
2  230 the To: field and also to those listed in the Cc: list
 240 hard coded in the ECOM100. It will send the SMTP
request based on the specified ECOM100#, which
3  250-1 corresponds to a specific unique ECOM100
 260 Configuration (ECOM100) at the top of your
program.
4 DS5 Used The Body: field supports what the PRINT and
HPP N/A VPRINT instructions support for text and embedded
5 variables, allowing you to embed real-time data in
your EMail (e.g. "V2000 = " V2000:B).
6 The Workspace parameter is an internal, private register used by this IBox and MUST BE
UNIQUE in this one instruction and MUST NOT be used anywhere else in your program.
7 Either the Success or Error bit parameter will turn on once the request is complete. If there is
an error, the Error Code parameter will report an ECOM100 error code (less than 100), an
8 SMPT protocol error (between 100 and 999), or a PLC logic error (greater than 1000).
Since the ECOM100 is only an EMail Client and requires access to an SMTP Server, you
MUST have the SMTP parameters configured properly in the ECOM100 via the
9 ECOM100's Home Page and/or the EMail Setup instruction (ECEMSUP). To get to the
ECOM100's Home Page, use your favorite Internet browser and browse to the ECOM100's
10 IP Address, e.g. http://192.168.12.86
You are limited to approximately 100 characters of message data for the entire instruction,
11 including the To: Subject: and Body: fields. To save space, the ECOM100 supports a hard
coded list of EMail addresses for the Carbon Copy field (cc:) so that you can configure those
IN the ECOM100, and keep the To: field small (or even empty), to leave more room for the
12 Subject: and Body: fields.
In order for this ECOM100 IBox to function, you must turn ON dip switch 7 on the
13 ECOM100 circuit board.

ECOM100 E-mail Setup (ECEMSUP) (IB-712)

1 ECOM100 EMail Setup, on a leading edge transition, will modify the working copy of the
EMail setup currently in the ECOM100 based on the specified ECOM100#, which
 230 corresponds to a specific unique ECOM100
2  240 Configuration (ECOM100) at the top of
 250-1 your program.
3  260 You may pick and choose any or all fields to
be modified using this instruction. Note that
4 DS5

Used
N/A
these changes are cumulative: if you execute
multiple ECOM100 EMail Setup IBoxes,
then all of the changes are made in the order
5 they are executed. Also note that you can
restore the original ECOM100 EMail Setup
6 that is stored in the ECOM100 to the
working copy by using the ECOM100
Restore Default EMail Setup (ECEMRDS) IBox.
7 The Workspace parameter is an internal, private register used by this IBox and MUST BE
UNIQUE in this one instruction and MUST NOT be used anywhere else in your program.
8 Either the Success or Error bit parameter will turn on once the command is complete. If there
is an error, the Error Code parameter will report an ECOM100 error code (less than 100), or
9 a PLC logic error (greater than 1000).
You are limited to approximately 100 characters/bytes of setup data for the entire instruction.
10 So if needed, you could divide the entire setup across multiple ECEMSUP IBoxes on a field-
by-field basis, for example do the Carbon Copy (cc:) field in one ECEMSUP IBox and the
remaining setup parameters in another.
11 In order for this ECOM100 IBox to function, you must turn ON dip switch 7 on the
ECOM100 circuit board.
12
13 ECEMSUP Parameters

ECOM100 IP Setup (ECIPSUP) (IB-717)

1 ECOM100 IP Setup will configure the three TCP/IP parameters in the ECOM100: IP
Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address, on a leading edge transition to the IBox. The
 230 ECOM100 is specified by the ECOM100#,
2  240 which corresponds to a specific unique
 250-1 ECOM100 Configuration (ECOM100) IBox
3  260 at the top of your program.
The Workspace parameter is an internal,
4 DS5 Used
private register used by this IBox and MUST
BE UNIQUE in this one instruction and
HPP N/A
MUST NOT be used anywhere else in your

Either the Success or Error bit parameter will
6 turn on once the command is complete. If there is an error, the Error Code parameter will
report an ECOM100 error code (less than 100), or a PLC logic error (greater than 1000).
7 This setup data is stored in Flash-ROM in the ECOM100 and will disable the ECOM100
module for at least a half second until it writes the Flash-ROM. Therefore, it is HIGHLY
8 RECOMMENDED that you only execute this IBox ONCE on the second scan. Since it
requires a LEADING edge to execute, use a NORMALLY CLOSED SP0 (NOT First Scan)
to drive the power flow to the IBox.
9 In order for this ECOM100 IBox to function, you must turn ON dip switch 7 on the
ECOM100 circuit board.
10 ECIPSUP Parameters

the IBox
 230
2  240 If the Module ID is set in the hardware using

Either the Success or Error bit parameter will
turn on once the command is complete. If
6 there is an error, the Error Code parameter
will report an ECOM100 error code (less

The Module ID is stored in Flash-ROM in the ECOM100 and the execution of this IBox
8 will disable the ECOM100 module for at least a half second until it writes the Flash-ROM.
Therefore, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you only execute this IBox ONCE on the
second scan. Since it requires a LEADING edge to execute, use a NORMALLY CLOSED

ECRX Example (cont’d)

1 Rung 2: Using ECOM100# K0, read X0-X7 from Slave K7 and write them to slave K5 as fast
as possible. Store them in this local PLC in C200-C207, and write them to C300-C307 in
slave K5.
2 Both the ECRX and ECWX work with the ECOM100 Config IBox to simplify all
networking by handling all of the interlocks and proper resource sharing. They also provide
3 very simplified error reporting. You no longer need to worry about any SP "busy bits" or
"error bits", or what slot number a module is in, or have any counters or shift registers or any
4 other interlocks for resource management.
In this example, SP1 (always ON) is driving both the ECRX and ECWX IBoxes in the same
5 rung. On the scan that the Network Read completes, the Network Write will start that same
scan. As soon as the Network Write completes, any pending operations below it in the
program would get a turn. If there are no pending ECOM100 IBoxes below the ECWX,
6 then the very next scan the ECRX would start its request again.
Using the ECRX and ECWX for all of your ECOM100 network reads and writes is the
7 fastest the PLC can do networking. For local Serial Ports, DCM modules, or the original
ECOM modules, use the NETCFG and NETRX/NETWX IBoxes.

ECWX Example (cont’d)

Rung 2: Using ECOM100# K0, read X0-X7 from Slave K7 and write them to slave K5 as fast
as possible. Store them in this local PLC in C200-C207, and write them to C300-C307 in
1
slave K5.
Both the ECRX and ECWX work with the ECOM100 Config IBox to simplify all
2
networking by handling all of the interlocks and proper resource sharing. They also provide
very simplified error reporting. You no longer need to worry about any SP "busy bits" or 3
"error bits", or what slot number a module is in, or have any counters or shift registers or any
other interlocks for resource management. 4
In this example, SP1 (always ON) is driving both the ECRX and ECWX IBoxes in the same
rung. On the scan that the Network Read completes, the Network Write will start that same
scan. As soon as the Network Write completes, any pending operations below it in the
5
program would get a turn. If there are no pending ECOM100 IBoxes below the ECWX, then
the very next scan the ECRX would start its request again. 6
Using the ECRX and ECWX for all of your ECOM100 network reads and writes is the
fastest the PLC can do networking. For local Serial Ports, DCM modules, or the original 7
ECOM modules, use the NETCFG and NETRX/NETWX IBoxes.

5 Networking, you must have a different
Network Config instruction and Network #
for EACH RX/WX network in your system
6 that utilizes any NETRX/NETWX IBox
instructions.
7 The 2nd parameter "CPU Port or Slot" is the same value as in the high byte of the first LD
instruction if you were coding the RX or WX rung yourself. This value is CPU and port
8 specific. Use KF1 for local CPU serial port 2. Use K3 if a DCM or ECOM is located in slot 3
of a local 205 base.
The Workspace parameter is an internal, private register used by the Network Config IBox
9 and MUST BE UNIQUE in this one instruction and MUST NOT be used anywhere else in
your program.
10 NETCFG Parameters
• Network#: specifies a unique # for each ECOM(100) or DCM network to use

CTRIO Configuration (CTRIO) (IB-1000)

1 CTRIO Config defines all the common information for one specific CTRIO module which
is used by the other CTRIO IBox instructions (for example, CTRLDPR - CTRIO Load
2  230 Profile, CTREDRL - CTRIO Edit and
 240 Reload Preset Table, CTRRTLM -
3  250-1 CTRIO Run to Limit Mode, ...).
 260 The Input/Output parameters for this
instruction can be copied directly from
4 DS5 Used the CTRIO Workbench configuration
HPP N/A for this CTRIO module. Since the
5 behavior is slightly different when the
CTRIO module is in an EBC Base via
6 an ERM, you must specify whether the CTRIO in Local Base CTRIO in EBC Base
CTRIO module is in a local base or in an
7 EBC base.
You must have the CTRIO Config IBox at the top of your ladder/stage program along with
8 any other configuration IBoxes.
If you have more than one CTRIO in your PLC, you must have a different CTRIO Config
9 IBox for EACH CTRIO module in your system that utilizes any CTRIO IBox instructions.
Each CTRIO Config IBox must have a UNIQUE CTRIO# value. This is how the CTRIO
10 IBoxes differentiate between the different CTRIO modules in your system.
The Workspace parameter is an internal, private register used by the CTRIO Config IBox
11 and MUST BE UNIQUE in this one instruction and MUST NOT be used anywhere else in
your program.

12 CTRIO Parameters
• CTRIO#: specifies a specific CTRIO module based on a user defined number
13 • Slot: (local base): specifies which PLC slot is occupied by the module (always K0 for EBC base)
• Workspace: specifies a V-memory location that will be used by the instruction
14 • CTRIO Location: specifies where the module is located (PLC local base or ERM to EBC base)
• Input (local base): This needs to be set to the same V-memory register as is specified in CTRIO
Workbench as ‘Starting V address for inputs’ for this unique CTRIO.
A • Output (local base): This needs to be set to the same V-memory register as is specified in CTRIO
Workbench as ‘Starting V address for outputs’ for this unique CTRIO.
B • Word Input (EBC base): The starting input V-memory address as defined by the I/O configuration
in the ERM Workbench
C • Bit Input (EBC base): The starting input Bit address as defined by the I/O configuration in the
ERM Workbench
D • Word Output (EBC base): The starting output V-memory address as defined by the I/O
configuration in the ERM Workbench
• Bit Output (EBC base): The starting output Bit address as defined by the I/O configuration in the

CTRIO Example (EBC base)
Overview: ERM Workbench must first be used to assign memory addresses to the I/O 9
modules in the EBC base. Once the CTRIO module memory addresses are established using
ERM Workbench, they are used in CTRIO Workbench and in a CTRIO IBox instruction to 10
configure and define a specific CTRIO module. For this example, the CTRIO module uses
V2000 - V2017 for its Word Input data and B40416.0 - B40423.15 for its Bit Input data.
The module uses V2100 - V2123 for its Word Output data and B40515.0 - B40522.15 for
11
its Bit Output data. The starting addresses, V2000 and V40416 (for inputs) and V2100 and
V40515 (for outputs) are entered into CTRIO Workbench I/O Map to configure this specific 12
CTRIO module. These starting addresses are the memory locations used in the CTRIO IBox
instruction as the Word Input, Bit Input, Word Output and Bit Output addresses as shown
below. For more information on this topic, refer to the CTRIO User Manual “Program

NOTE: The CTRIO Configuration IBox instruction does not require a permissive contact. The top line will be 6

Rung 2: This rung is a sample method for enabling the CTRADPT command. A C-bit is
7
used to allow the programmer to control the command from Data View for testing purposes.
Turning on C0 will cause the CTRADPT instruction to add a new preset to the preset table
8
for output #0 on the CTRIO in slot 2. The new preset will be a command to RESET (entry
type K1=reset), pulse time is left at zero as the reset type does not use this, and the count at 9
which it will reset will be 20.
Operating procedure for this example code is to load the CTRADPT_ex1.cwb file to your 10
CTRIO, then enter the code shown here, change to RUN mode, enable output #0 by turning
on C2 in Data View, turn encoder on CTRIO to value above 10 and output #0 light will
come on and stay on for all counts past 10. Now reset the counter with C1, enable C0 to
11
execute CTRADPT command to add a reset for output #0 at a count of 20, turn on C2 to
enable output #0, then turn encoder to value of 10+ (output #0 should turn on) and then 12
continue on to count of 20+ (output #0 should turn off ).

CTRCLRT Example
1 Rung 1: This sets up the CTRIO module in slot 2 of the local base. Each CTRIO module in
the system will need a separate CTRIO Config IBox before any CTRxxxx IBoxes can be used.
The CTRIO has been configured to use V2000 through V2025 for its input data, and V2030
2 through V2061 for its output data.

identified in BOLD italics, and the instruction name and ID will be in BOLD characters.

8 Rung 2: This rung is a sample method for enabling the CTRCLRT command. A C-bit is
used to allow the programmer to control the command from Data View for testing purposes.
9 Turning on C0 will cause the CTRCLRT instruction to clear the preset table for output #0
on the CTRIO in slot 2.
10 Operating procedure for this example code is to load the CTRCLRT_ex1.cwb file to your
CTRIO, then enter the code shown here, change to RUN mode, enable output #0 by turning
on C2 in Data View, turn encoder on CTRIO to value above 10 and output #0 light will
11 come on and stay on until a count of 20 is reached, where it will turn off. Now reset the
counter with C1, enable C0 to execute CTRCLRT command to clear the preset table, turn
12 on C2 to enable output #0, then turn encoder to value of 10+ (output #0 should NOT turn
on).

CTREDPT Example (cont’d)

1 Rung 2: This rung is a sample method for enabling the CTREDPT command. A C-bit is
used to allow the programmer to control the command from Data View for testing purposes.
2 Turning on C0 will cause the CTREDPT instruction to change the second preset from a reset
at a count of 20 to a reset at a count of 30 for output #0 on the CTRIO in slot 2.
Operating procedure for this example code is to load the CTREDPT_ex1.cwb file to your
3 CTRIO, then enter the code shown here, change to RUN mode, enable output #0 by turning
on C2 in Data View, turn encoder on CTRIO to value above 10 and output #0 light will
4 come on and stay on until a count of 20 is reached, where it will turn off. Now reset the
counter with C1, enable C0 to execute CTREDPT command to change the second preset,
5 turn on C2 to enable output #0, then turn encoder to value of 10+ (output #0 should turn
on) and then continue past a count of 30 (output #0 should turn off ).
Note that we must also reload the profile after changing the preset(s), this is why the
6 CTRLDPR command follows the CTREDPT command in this example.
