FANUC Series 90-30 PLC. Installation and Hardware Manual (GFK-0356P)

· Multiply the input voltage times the current value times the estimated percent of on-time to

arrive at average power dissipation for that input.

· Repeat for all inputs on the module. To save time, you could determine if several inputs

were similar in current draw and on-time so that you would only have to make their

calculation once.

· Repeat these calculations for all Discrete Input modules in the rack.

Discrete Input Module Example:

The “Specifications” table for the IC693MDL240 16-Point Discrete 120 VAC Input Module in the

Series 90-30 PLC I/O Module Specification Manual, GFK-0898, gives the following information:

Input Current:

12 mA (typical) at rated voltage

Use this value for all of the input calculations for this module.

In this example, eight of the Input Module’s points are used for switches that, for normal operation,

stay on (closed) 100% of the time. These include the Emergency Stop, Over Temperature, Lube

Pressure OK, and similar switches.

Use the formula Average Power Dissipation = Input Voltage x Input Current (in Amps) x Percent

(expressed as a decimal) of on-time:

120 x .012 x 1.0 = 1.44 Watts per input

Then multiply this result by 8:

1.44 Watts x 8 inputs = 11.52 Watts total for the 8 inputs

Also in this example, two input points on this 16-point module are for the Control On and Pump

Start pushbuttons. Under normal conditions, these pushbuttons are only pressed once per day for

about one second - just long enough to start up the control and pump. Therefore, their effect on

our power calculation is negligible and we will assume a power dissipation of zero for them:

0.0 Watts total for 2 inputs

For the remaining six inputs of our sixteen point module, it is estimated that they will be on for an

average of 20% of the time. So the following calculation is made for these six inputs:

Using the formula of Average Power Dissipation = Input Voltage x Input Current (in Amps) x

Percent (expressed as a decimal) of on-time:

120 x .012 x 0.20 = 0.288 Watts per input

Then multiply this result by 6:

0.288 Watts x 6 inputs = 1.728 Watts total for the 6 inputs

GFK-0356P

Appendix H Series 90-30 Heat Dissipation

H-5

Finally, adding up the individual calculations, we get:

11.52 + 0.0 + 1.728 = 13.248 Watts for the module’s total input calculation

Step 5: Final Calculation

Once the individual power dissipations have been calculated, add them all to obtain total PLC heat

dissipation. Note that the PLC baseplate, analog input modules, and analog output modules have

been ignored in this procedure because their power dissipation values are negligible when

compared with the total. Also, since each Series 90-30 rack has its own power supply, each rack

should be calculated on an individual basis. The following table summarizes the final calculation:

Appendix

Catalog Number to Publication Cross-Reference

Purpose

Manuals are not shipped with many of the Series 90-30 products; they must be

ordered separately. This appendix can help you identify the correct documentation to

order and use. Products are arranged in this appendix by categories such as Analog

I/O Modules, Baseplates, Communications Modules, etc. The category headings are

listed in alphabetical order. Modules that share common documentation are grouped

under a generic catalog number, such as IC693ALGxxx for the Analog I/O modules.

Note that you may not need every publication listed for a particular product. Your

need for some of the publications depends on your application. For example, if you

intend to use Logicmaster Programming software to configure and program your

PLC, you will not need the Control, VersaPro, or Hand Held Programmer manuals.

Or, if you are going to program your Programmable Coprocessor module using the C

computer language, you will not need the MegaBasic language manual. For your

convenience, a list of publication titles is included at the end of this data sheet.

Abbreviations Used

· HHP stands for Hand-Held Programmer.

· LM90 stands for Logicmaster, a DOS-based programming and configuration

software.

Understanding Publication Revision Letters

When a GE Fanuc publication is revised, a letter is placed at the end of the

publication number. For example, in the publication number GFK-0356N, the

revision letter N at the end indicates the version of the manual. Manuals are revised

when there are changes or additions to the products or product lines covered in the

manual. Since this is a continual process, we decided that, except in a few special

cases, we would not include revision letters in this appendix in order to prevent

confusion. Therefore, when ordering these publications, ask for the latest version.

Note: Under normal circumstances, if a publication number does not have an ending

letter (suffix), such as GFK-1581, it is an indication that the publication has never

been revised.

Other Sources of Information

· GE Fanuc InfoLink PLC CD. This CD contains a collection of GE Fanuc

PLC manuals for Series 90-30, Series 90-70, Genius, VersaMax, etc. There is

also an InfoLink available for GE Fanuc CNC products. Be sure to specify

which one you need when ordering from your PLC distributor.

· GE Fanuc web site. This web site, at http://www.gefanuc.com , contains not

only an on-line version of the InfoLink CD, but also recently revised

publications, product revision histories, the GE Fanuc Automation Solutions

Catalog, and Third-Party product information.

Appendix

J Terminal Block Quick Connect Components

section level 1

figure_ap level 1

table_ap level 1

This appendix describes the optional terminal block components for Series 90-30 discrete I/O

modules. This system is referred to as the Terminal Block Quick Connect (TBQC) system.

The advantage of this system, is that it allows the listed discrete I/O modules to be quickly

connected to TBQC terminal blocks. In this system, the TBQC terminal block (shown

below) is snapped onto a standard DIN-rail. Then, a factory-made cable is connected

between the terminal block’s connector and the I/O module’s connector. An I/O module

that has a terminal board instead of a connector is converted into a connector type using an

adapter faceplate.

The TBQC system is not recommended for use with Analog modules because it does not

meet the shielding recommendations for Analog module connections. (See the Series 90-30

PLC I/O Module Specifications Manual, GFK-0898, for Analog module wiring information.)

This appendix contains two sections, one for discrete 16-point I/O modules and one for

discrete 32-point I/O modules.

Terminal Block Quick Connect Components for 16-Point Modules

Installing a 16 point module typically takes 2 1/2 hours to wire from a PLC to a terminal

blocks or strip. With the TBQC, you simply snap the terminal block onto a DIN rail, remove

the I/O module’s terminal assembly, snap in the I/O faceplate, and connect the cable. This

reduces wiring time to about two minutes, thereby reducing wiring costs and errors.

Complete assemblies consist of a terminal block, an I/O Face Plate, and a cable.

Terminal Blocks

Terminal blocks have three rows of terminals, arranged in three levels, as shown in

Figure J-1. These terminal blocks feature an easy to use captive-screw, “rising cage” type

connection system. Catalog numbers for the terminal blocks and the modules they can

be used with are listed below.

This Terminal Block may be used with most I/O modules that have up to 16 I/O points (can

not be used with 32 point modules). Jumpers may have to be added; for details of required

wiring connections, refer to module specifications in GFK-0898.

Cable Current Rating

Each conductor in these 24-conductor cables has a current rating of 1.2 Amps. If using

these cables with a 16-point Output module with a higher output current rating, you

must use the lower value of 1.2 Amps for the maximum load current rating . If you have

field devices that require more than 1.2 Amps, do not use a TBQC assembly - use the

standard Terminal Board that comes with the module instead.

Cable Selection and Cross-Reference

Three cables are available for connecting between the module’s faceplate connector and

the terminal block. The only difference in these cables is their length. These cables have

right-angle connectors on the module end to minimize the space required in front of the

modules. These three cables replace three obsolete cables that had straight connectors.

Use the following table to select the correct cable.

Terminal Block Quick Connect Components for 32-Point Modules

The 32-point modules do not require a new faceplate since they are equipped with a

dual-connector faceplate as a standard feature. Since each module has two 24-pin

connectors, they each require two cables and two terminal blocks. Also, since the

modules’ two connectors are oriented differently (see example in figure below), the two

cables are different. One is called a “right side” cable and the other, a “left side” cable.

Note: These terminal blocks will not work with the 32-point I/O modules that have

50-pin connectors.

Cable Selection and Cross-Reference

Six cables are available for connecting between the modules’ faceplate connectors and

the terminal blocks. These cables have right-angle connectors on the module end to

minimize the space required in front of the modules. These six cables replace three

obsolete cables that had straight connectors. Since the modules’ two connectors are

oriented differently (see previous figure), a right-side and left-side cable is required. Use

the following table to select the correct cables. The table also lists cable kits that consist

of a pair of same length, right side and left side cables.

Cable Current Rating

Each conductor in these 24-conductor cables has a current rating of 1.2 Amps, which is

more than adequate to handle the current requirement of any of the 32-point I/O

modules listed in the previous table.

SNP Multidrop Overview

As used in this appendix, the term “SNP Multidrop” refers to a system that allows a

programmer (called the “master or host”), such as a personal computer running GE

Fanuc programming software, to connect to two or more PLCs or intelligent Option

modules (called “slaves“) via a single connection. In this arrangement the programmer

is able to program, configure, test, troubleshoot, etc., any one of the multidropped

devices from one connection point.

Physically, a typical SNP multidrop system consists of a programmer and two or more

PLCs interconnected by a “daisy-chain“ type cabling arrangement, as shown in the

figure below. It is necessary to assign each slave device (PLC or Option module) a

unique SNP (Series Ninety Protocol) address, using programming software such as

Logicmaster or VersaPro. The SNP address is used by the programmer to designate

which PLC it will communicate with. The SNP protocol uses the RS-422

communications standard. Note that the PLCs or Option modules do not communicate

with each other over the multidrop system. They only communicate with the

programmer. And only one device, the one designated by the programmer, can

communicate with the programmer at a time.

Multidrop Cables

There are two sources of multidrop cables:

GE Fanuc cable, catalog number IC690CBL714A - This pre-made cable can be

purchased for applications where the PLCs are mounted in the same cabinet, such as

in the case of redundant systems. The length of this cable is 40 inches (1 meter).

Custom built - For PLCs that are more than 40 inches (1 meter) apart, it is necessary

to build a custom length cable. The specifications are provide below.

Limitations

The maximum cable length between a master (programmer) and slave device (PLC

or Option module) in a multidrop system is 4,000 feet (1,219 meters).

The maximum number of slave devices is limited to eight.

Cable and Connector Specifications

The cable assembly presents one of the most common causes of communication failure.

For best performance, construct the cable assemblies using the recommended connector

parts and specifications.

Cable

These cables provide acceptable operation for data rates up to 19.2 Kbps

as follows:

RS-422/RS-422:

4000 feet (1200 meters) maximum length. Must not

exceed the maximum RS-422 Common Mode specifi-

cation of +7V to -7V. Isolation at the remote end may

be used to reduce or eliminate Common Mode voltages.

When using RS-422/RS-422, the twisted pairs should be matched so that both

transmit signals make up one twisted pair and both receive signals make up the

other twisted pair. If this is ignored, cross-task resulting from the mismatching

will affect the performance of the communications system.

When routing communication cables outdoors, transient suppression devices can

be used to reduce the possibility of damage due to lightning or static discharge.

Care should be exercised that all connected devices are grounded to a common point.

Failure to do so could result in damage to the equipment.

Configuring and Connecting a Programmer to a Multidrop Network

Each slave device on a multidrop system must have its own unique SNP ID

(identification). The SNP ID assignment is made with a programmer running GE Fanuc

programming software, or with the Hand Held Programmer. Logicmaster, Control, or

Versa Pro software packages all can be used for this purpose. The following example

uses Logicmaster. Please see your software user ’s manual or on-line help screens for

instructions. Regardless of what software you use, the basic steps are:

Connect your programmer to each individual PLC or module on the multidrop

system and assign each one a unique SNP ID.

Connect your programmer to the multidrop system and select Multidrop for the

programmer ’s connection method.

In the programming software, select the SNP ID of the PLC or module you wish to

connect to.

Assigning a PLC SNP ID to a PLC with Logicmaster

Take your programmer to the first PLC to be assigned, and connect directly to its

programmer port.

From the Logicmaster Main Menu, select F2, “Logicmaster 90 Configuration

Package.“

Select F2, “CPU Configuration.”

Put the software in the ONLINE mode.

Select F3, “Assign PLC ID.” On the ASSIGN PLC ID screen, the CURRENT PLC ID

field will display an ID if the PLC has one. If the PLC does not currently have an

SNP ID, this field will be blank. (In the OFFLINE mode it will display a series of

asterisks.)
