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-0356Q, the letter Q 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 revision letters are not included in this

appendix, except in a few special cases. Therefore, when ordering these publications, ask for the latest

version.

Note: If a publication number does not have an ending letter (suffix), such as GFK-1581, the

publication has never been revised.

Appendix

Terminal Block Quick Connect Components

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. A complete assembly consists

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 H-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.

I/O Face Plate for 16-Point Modules

The I/O Face Plate (catalog number IC693ACC334) has a 24-pin connector, which provides the

connection to the applicable terminal block through a 0.5, 1, or 2 meter cable. This face plate

replaces the standard terminal board on the listed 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

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, VersaPro, or Logic

Developer-PLC. 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 specification 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.

GFK-0356Q

Appendix I SNP Multidrop

I-5

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.)

■ Key in the new PLC ID. For newer CPUs, it may be from one to seven alpha-numeric

characters long. For older CPUs, it is limited to a maximum of six characters. For example, it

could be PLC1, APM001, A1, B00001, etc.

■ Press the Enter key. The new SNP ID will be written to the PLC and the CURRENT PLC ID

field on your screen will update to show this new SNP ID.

■ Repeat the above steps for each PLC that is on the multidrop system. If assigning an SNP ID

to a module, you must use the appropriate software. See the user’s manual for the module for

instructions.

Connecting your Logicmaster Programmer to a PLC on a Multidrop System

■ Connect your programmer to the programmer connection for the multidrop system.

■ From the Logicmaster Main Menu, select F2, “Logicmaster 90 Configuration Package.”

■ Select F7, “Programmer Mode and Setup.”

■ Select F3, “Select PLC Connections.”

■ In the SELECTED SNP ID field, enter the SNP ID of the PLC or device you wish to

communicate with.

■ In the PORT CONNECTION field, select MULTIDROP.

■ Press F6, “setup,” to connect to the selected PLC. You should connect to the selected PLC

within a few seconds. If you cannot connect, see the next section.

SNP Multidrop Troubleshooting

If you are having trouble connecting to a PLC or module over the multidrop system, check the

following:

■

Is there a problem with all PLCs or only one? Try connecting to other PLCs over the

multidrop system. If you cannot connect to any, check for a common problem such as a

defective cable. If you can connect to all but one PLC, use the direct connection method

described in the next paragraph. Also, if you only have a problem with the last PLC on the

multidrop link, the last section of cable may have a problem. Or, perhaps you can connect to

all PLCs up to a certain point, but none beyond that point. This would also strongly suggest

that there is a problem in a section of cable.

■

SNP ID may be incorrect. You may not be able to connect because you are specifying the

wrong SNP ID. If you are not sure of a PLC’s correct SNP ID and would like to check it, you

can connect your programmer directly to the PLC’s programmer port and read its SNP ID from

the software’s ASSIGN PLC ID screen, (as described in “Assigning an SNP ID to a PLC with

Logicmaster,” above). Make sure you change the programming software’s connection method

to Direct for this test. When set for Direct connection, the software will communicate with a

directly connected PLC without regard to its SNP ID.

■

Communications settings may not match. If the PLC’s serial port communication settings

and the programming software’s communication settings do not match, they will not be able to

communicate. These settings include such things as BAUD Rate, Parity, Stop Bits, etc. If you

suspect this to be the problem, try connecting directly to the PLC as described above in “SNP

ID may be incorrect.” If you cannot connect directly, there may be a communication settings

mismatch. If so, try setting the programming software to its default communication settings.

■

Multidrop may not be selected as the connection method. The default connection method

in the programming software is Direct, which requires that you be connected directly to a PLC

or module’s programmer port. If this default setting is not changed to Multidrop, you will not

be able to connect to a selected SNP ID over a multidrop system.

■

You may have a hardware problem. Inspect the multidrop cable; it may be wired

incorrectly, damaged, or disconnected. A wire may be loose on one of the connectors. Also

check the status of the PLC you are trying to connect to. It may not be powered up; it may be

stopped; or it may have some other problem. Eliminate the PLC itself as a possible problem

by connecting your programmer directly to the PLC’s programmer port. You should be able to

communicate with a PLC using this direct connection even if the programming software is

configured for Multidrop, as long as the SNP IDs match.
