Space module used for an empty I/O slot 1.2 Overview An AH500 series CPU module is a medium type of advanced controller with built-in communication ports. It provides a strong network function for users, and users can create connection among devices on the network through software.
Page 22 It provides a strong network function for users, and users can create connection among devices in the network through software. Users can restore or back up a system rapidly through the built-in SD interface in an AH500 series CPU module.
Page 23: Characteristics
Supporting more inputs and outputs  The AH500 series CPU module supports up to 4,352 local digital I/O or 544 analog I/O.  A complete AH500 system consists of eight backplanes at most, including a main backplane. Twelve I/O modules at most can be installed on a main backplane, and eight I/O modules at most can be installed on an extension backplane.
Page 24  An AH500 series CPU module is equipped with devices which can be used conveniently in a program. Users can flexibly specify a bit in a word device, e.g. D0.0, X0.0, and Y0.0. Owing to that bits in a word device can be specified, these bits can function as contacts and coils.
Page 25 Not only the standard IEC61131-3 function blocks are supported, but also the convenient function blocks provided by Delta Electronics, Inc. are supported. Users can write the program frequently executed in a function block so that the program becomes more structured and can be executed more conveniently.
Page 26 Increasing the efficiency of configuring the hardware through an USB cable and ISPSoft  The AH500 series CPU module provides a standard USB 2.0 interface. USB 2.0 increases the data transfer rate, and decreases the time it takes to download the program, monitor the program and configure the hardware.
Page 27 The data transfer rate can be increased from 9600 bps to 1 Mbps.  AH500 basic series CPU module (AHCPU500/510/520/530): After users set the PLC Link in NWCONIFG in ISPSoft, they can exchange the data with a device through the RS-485 serial control interface, and do not need to write any program.
Page 28 14. Supporting the on-line debugging mode  After a single instruction step has been complete, or after a breakpoint is specified, users can easily find the bug in the program by means of the on-line debugging mode supported by the AH500 series CPU module. ...

Page 172: Values And Constants
5.2.2 Floating-point Numbers The floating-point numbers are represented by decimal points in ISPSoft. For example, the floating-point number of 500 is 500.0. Please refer to section 2.2.2 in AH500 Programming Manual for more information. 5.2.3 Strings What strings can process are ASCII codes. A complete string begins with a start character, and ends with an ending character (NULL code).

C h a p t e r 5 D e v i c e Function of the counter  Each time the input switches from OFF to ON, the value of the counter increases by one increment. When the value of the counter matches the setting value, the output coil is ON. Users can use either the decimal constant or the value in the data register as the setting value.
Page 176: Data Registers
If users want to clear the data in the latched area, they can use RST or ZRST. 5.2.13 Special Data Registers Every special data register has its definition and specific function. Please refer to section 2.2.14 in AH500 Programming Manual for more information. 5.2.14 Link Registers The link register is mainly used in the PLC Link or the Ether Link.

Page 304: Communication Setting In Nwconfig
PLCs perform data exchange according to the start mode selected when the PLCs run. Besides, only AH500 series CPU modules support Ether Links. An Ether Link is not a master/slave model. It allows a node to send reading commands which ask for data to other nodes.

Page 306: Setting Communication Parameters
NWCONFIG can also carries out communication through routing. Routing is a function provided by AH500 series CPU modules. It directs packet forwarding. Packet forwarding is the relaying of packets from their source toward their destination through intermediate nodes. In the figure below, the device which actually connects to the computer is AH-01.
