  • Page 10: Module Features

    Module Features The PPX:505-2571 Program Port Expander Module is a member of the communication family of I/O modules for the Series 505 programmable controllers. The PPX:505-2571 is a single-wide, Special Function module that provides four additional communications ports that function like the program port provided on the CPU front panel.
  • Page 11 Some controllers, like the SIMATIC 525, provide only an RS-232 port, limiting reliable communications to about 50 feet at higher baud rates. The PPX:505-2571 provides two additional RS-232 ports and 2 additional RS-422 ports in addition to the standard controller ports. These additional ports may be used to attach various types of serial devices which conform to the Non–Intelligent Terminal Protocol (NITP).
  • Page 12: Process Monitoring Application Using Pcs

    Often times there are multiple nodes that need to be connected to the controller. With the PPX:505-2571 this may easily be accomplished. See Figure 1-2.

    During start up conditions a PC may be attached to a serial port to aid in the debugging process. The additional ports on the PPX:505-2571 make it possible to access locally the controller. See Figure 1-3.

  • Page 15 The installation of the PPX:505-2571 Programming Port Expander Module consists of the following steps: Installation The PPX:505-2571 requires 5 watts of +5VDC power. Before inserting the Planning module into the I/O base, ensure that the power supply capacity is not exceeded.

    Module addition, for the RS–232 ports (1 and 2) you can enable or disable hardware handshaking. The PPX:505-2571 is shipped with all DIP switches in the OFF position. This corresponds to a baud rate of 9600 and hardware handshaking DISABLED for ports 1 and 2.
  • Page 17: Chapter 2 Installing The Module

    Connecting Serial communications cables are used to connect Operator Interface devices Operator Interface to the ports of the PPX:505-2571. Port 1 and 2 provide a subset of the Devices RS–232C electrical interface. Cables for the RS-232 ports should be no longer than 50 feet.

    NOT use hardware handshaking you MUST set DIP switch 3 to OFF (see Table 2-1 and Figure 2-1). Powering Up the First turn on the base power supply. If the diagnostics on the PPX:505-2571 Module detect no problems, the ACTIVE indicator will illuminate. If the indicator does not illuminate or exhibits a blinking pattern, the module has detected a component failure.
  • Page 19 Getting Started (continued) In Figure 2-3, the PPX:505-2571 module is installed into slot 1 and I/O base 0. For your particular installation, look in the chart at the slot address occupied by the module in your configuration. If the WX and WY values are...

  • Page 21: Effect Of Controller Scan Time

    The PPX:505-2571 is designed to work with operator interface devices which adhere to the Non–Intelligent Terminal Protocol (NITP). Up to four supported devices may concurrently communicate with the controller. The PPX:505-2571 will provide buffering for the commands from the operator interface and responses from the controller.
  • Page 22 To maximize throughput, the PPX:505-2571 should be placed in the local base with the controller. A PPX:505-2571 module in the local base has the advantage of 8-bit parallel data transfer to the controller across the backplane. A remote I/O module must communicate with the controller via a serial data stream.

  • Page 24: Module Malfunction

    Module When power is applied to the PPX:505-2571, it first performs a Power On Malfunction Self Test (POST) to determine if all module components are operating properly. This test takes only a few seconds. When successfully completed, the ACTIVE indicator on the module will be illuminated (on steady). If a problem is detected with the communications section for one of the ports, the ACTIVE indicator will begin blinking at a fast (2 Hz) rate.

    Refer to the information below for possible causes. Baud Rate First, check to ensure that the baud rate settings on both the PPX:505-2571 Mismatch and the operator interface are set to the same data rate. If you note a problem, set both to the same baud rates and retry.
