1. APPLICATION AND DESIGN The SMC programmable logic controller is the central decision module in distributed measuring and control systems with a quick MODBUS communication (up to 115.2 kbit/s). It can service remote analogue and logic input/output modules, measuring transducers, inverters, microcontrollers, recorders, display panels, HMI touch screen panels, etc.
3. BASIC REQUIREMENTS, SAFETY SERVICE Symbols located in this user’s manual mean: WARNING! Warning of potential, hazardous situations. Especially important. One must acquaint with this before connecting the SMC controller. The non-observance of notices marked by these symbols can occasion the damage of the instrument. CAUTION! Designates a general useful note.
4. DESCRIPTION OF THE DESIGN AND INSTALLATION 4.1. Design Description The SMC controller is destined to be fixed on a 35 mm rail support (acc. to EN 60715) in the way shown on the fig. 2. Fig. 2. Fixing way of the SMC controller...
4.2. Terminal Description The supply and external signals must be connected in accordance with the fig. 3. Individual outlets have been described in the table 1. Caution: One must pay a particular attention on the correct connection of external signals (see table 1) There are 3 signalling diodes on the frontal plate D1 Two-colour diodes.
The current program on a CD is included in the controller set. The current programming package for SMC is included on the www.lumel.com.pl/download page. All updatings can be carried out by means of the programming package runs on this page.
5. CONTROLLER CONFIGURATION NOTE : The language description and examples of controller programming are included in the programming manual. Before proceeding to the controller configuration, one must prepare the controlling program taking advantage of tools included in the controller set. 5.1.

The project file import is necessary, when CPCon was started in the second or third way. The read out metric contains documentation data of the carried out program by the controller.
• Horizontal communication Communication parameters SMC ↔ in/out modules can be selected from the tag (or other devices). Parameters must be the same as they set in modules. The 8N1 mode selected below means 8-bit data, odd parity (N) and 1 stop bit. Fig.

• Press the button in the program window. The creator information window appears Fig. 13. Creator of communication tasks 5.2.1 Device Number. MODBUS Function • Input devices (e.g. SM5) can be read out by groups by means of the function with Code 3 (readout of registers , named FC3 here (Function Code 3).

Among global variables of our project, we highlight input variables. The logic addresses of variables are e.g. 0,1, 2, and the dimension of each is a byte. Addresses of input variables are successive numbers, then the readout by groups (by blocks) is suitable. Note.

5.2.5. Control Variables The last creator window serves for the configuration of transmission control, if the appropriate fragment of the program forecasts it. It is indicated in the window, to which of variables has to be write the information about the correctness or incorrectness of the communication, which of the variable is destined to write the communication time in, and by means of which, one can enable or disable communication tasks.

Other cells – written in the ordinary way. 5.2.8. Writing the Configuration into the File. The table of communication tasks can be utilized in later modifications or in other Projects.
5.2.9. Configuration Readout ( for Check, Modification, ETC.) • Press the button Select the file in the appearing window Open file with the confirmation of the communication subsystem and click Open. Fig. 21 Reading in the project to the file In case of the file Start_Stop.xmc, the table of communication tasks will be looked like previously.
DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSMISSION PROTOCOL FUNCTIONS Following functions of the MODBUS protocol were implemented in the controller. code Meaning Readout of n-registers Write of a single register Write of n-registers Identification of the slave device 6.1. Readout of n-registers (code 03) Request: The function enables the readout of values included in register, in the addressed slave device.
6.3. Writing in n-registers (Code 16) Request: The function is available In the broadcast mode. It enables the modification of the register contents. Example: Write of two registers beginning from the register with the address 136. address funct. regist. regist. numb.
Data Field: In the correct response, the slave device can return data on the data field (some information requested by the master unit). In the erroneous response, the slave device returns the terror code on the data field. It defines the slave device conditions, which causes the error.

10. MAINTENANCE AND GUARANTEE The applied battery in the SMC controller requires replacement every 5 years. In order to replace the battery, one must send the controller to the Manufacturer’s Service Department. In case of some incorrect operations: 1. In the period given in the annexed guarantee card One should take the controller down from the installation and return it to the Manufacturer’s Quality Control Dept.
