are compact and capable of integrating one or two discrete input/output modules

into the database, according to the type,

the TSX 37-21 and TSX 37-22 modular PLCs.

General information about discrete inputs/outputs

At a Glance

All discrete modules ( see TSX Micro Installation Manual, Volume 2 ) can be

installed in all the available positions in TSX 37 PLCs. In order to best meet your

requirements, two module sizes are on offer for the discrete inputs/outputs:

the standard size which takes up a slot (2 position),

the half-size which takes up a single position.

All the other modules (analog, counting, etc.) are half-size modules.

A mini extension rack, which can be directly connected to the PLC database,

enables the number of available slots to be extended and therefore the number of

modules, which can be used, to be increased.

Remote discrete inputs/outputs

Introduction

The TSX Micro range enables you to use remote discrete inputs/outputs (see

Implementation manual TSX Micro Volume 2)

For this, two modules are proposed:

an offset module TSX STZ 10,

a bus master module AS-i TSX SAZ 10 (only on TSX 37-10 and TSX 37-21/22).

Note: This choice is exclusive: it is not possible to us both modules simultaneously.

Using a TSX STZ The TSX STZ 10 offset module enables the inputs/outputs of 4 TSX 07-PLCs to be

10 offset module used remotely (up to 200m), and to thus increase the number of inputs/outputs in

the configuration.

Local analog inputs/outputs

Introduction

The analog inputs/outputs from the TSX 37 range differ in their modularity, their

performance and signal ranges offered (high voltage level, thermoelectric couple,

heat probe, etc).

(For further details see TSX Micro implementation manual Volume 2).

Analog inputs/

TSX 37-22 PLCs offer 8 inputs and 0-10 V 8 bit-output, and a 10V voltage reference

outputs built in

output, which means that a large number of automatic cases can be answered

to TSX 37-22

economically.

PLCs

These inputs may be associated to the TSX ACZ 03 adjustment and adaptation

module, which allows:

manual adjustment of application values across 4 sliders,

conversion to 4-20 mA current from 0-10V signals,

adaptation of analog inputs to 24V discrete inputs (IEC type 1).

PLCs offer a high level of performance. They differ in modularity (from 2 to 8

made by a screw terminal block.

General points

The TSX STZ 10 I/O offset module enables the remote use (up to a distance of

200m) of up to 3 TSX AMZ 4• analog input/output modules from the TSX 07 PLC

range (see Implementation manual TSX Micro Volume 2).

Note: Using an input/output offset module for PLCs excludes the use of an AS-i

master module.

Counting channel

Introduction

TSX 37 PLCs offer 3 possibilities for counting:

via the first four discrete inputs of the first module,

by using the counting channels which are built in to TSX 37-22 PLCs,

via counting modules, which can be installed in the available positions (TSX CTZ

1A/2A, TSX CTZ 2AA).

Upcounting on

The first 4 inputs of the discrete module, located in the first slot of the PLC, make it

discrete inputs

possible to have 2 up/down counting channels at 500Hz.(See Counting built into

bases, p. 229.

Illustration

The illustration below shows the 4 inputs of the discrete module configurable in

counting channels.

2 counting channels

to 500 Hz:

up counter,

Integrated

Built-in counting in TSX 37-22 PLCs makes it possible to have 2 10KHz counting

channels, as well as all the signals necessary for implementing these functions

(reset to zero, set to pre-selection, top-turn, etc.).

Forced PLC ventilation

Introduction

Depending on the PLC-type (TSX 37-05/08/10 or TSX 37-21/22 with or without mini

extension rack), one or two ventilation modules can be installed above each PLC to

assist the cooling of the different modules by forced convection.

Illustration

The illustration below shows the ventilation module TSX FAN •• •.

Usage

These ventilation blocks should be used in the following cases:

conditions

Ambient temperature between 25°C and 70°C: forced ventilation increases the

life span of the various TSX Micro PLC components (MTBF increased by 25%).

Ambient temperature between 60°C and 70°C: the ambient temperature is

limited to 60°C without ventilation, forced ventilation lowers the temperature

inside the modules by more than 10°C (and removes the hot points) which brings

the modules’ internal temperature down to the equivalent of the ambient

temperature of 60°C.

In these conditions, the product life span is increased by more than 50%.

Three types of ventilation module are offered:

Ventilation module with 110V AC supply,

ventilation module with 220V AC power supply,

ventilation module with 24V DC supply,

Note: Using forced ventilation makes it necessary to take fitting precautions when

analog modules of type TSX AEZ 414 are used in the PLC configuration (see (TSX

Micro Installation manual, Volume 2, cabling recommendations)).

UNI-TELWAY link

General

Communicating via UNI-TELWAY allows the exchange of data between all the

devices which are connected on the bus. The UNI-TELWAY standard is a UNI-TE

protocol which creates a hierarchical structure (one master and several slaves).

The master device is the bus manager.

FIPWAY link

General points

To decentralize peripheral devices, intelligence and ultra-remote services,

Schneider Automation offers the FIPWAY industrial local network.

The FIPWAY network conforms entirely to the FIP standard with access by a bus

arbitrator.

A FIPWAY communication channel comprises three elementary functions:

The inter-station message handling function which guarantees the routing of

messages,

the telegram sending/receiving function,

the common words (%NW) or shared table production/consumption function.

General

Communicating via FIPIO is part of the WORLDFIP global offer from Schneider

Automation.

FIPIO is a field bus, which allows the decentralization of the inputs/outputs of a PLC

station and its industrial peripheral devices nearest to the operational part.

The FIPIO protocol depends on the producer/consumer exchanges (example:

common words) and the bus is managed by a bus arbitrator.

Modbus Plus Link

General

Communicating by Modbus Plus allows the exchange of data between all the

devices connected on the network.

The Modbus Plus protocol is based on the principle of a Logical Token passing bus.

Each station on the same network is identified by an address between 1 and 64 and

has access to the network after receiving a token. Duplicated addresses are not

valid.
