Table 3.1 Module Status display LED Outlook Name Color Contents Green Blinking when data is being transmitted. CPU LINK EH-OLNK Green Blinking when data is being received.
Chapter 4. Basic CPU Link Operations Chapter 4 Basic CPU Link Operations System Configuration An example of the optical type CPU link module configuration is shown is figure 4.1. It is possible to connect up the EH-OLNK together with upper level H series CPU link modules (OLINK-H, OLINK-SH) As indicated in figure 4.1, it is possible to use both upper level H series optical type CPU link modules and CPU modules in a link system loop.
Chapter 4. Basic CPU Link Operations CPU link functions A transmission area and a receiving area are assigned to the CPU's link area, and all link operations are performed via these areas. The link areas can be assigned arbitrarily in units of 16 points (1 word) for each CPU.
Page 15
Chapter 4. Basic CPU Link Operations 2) Link area identification When two optical type CPU link modules have been installed, the first and second link areas are identified in accordance with their installation position. The slots are counted in 0, 1, 2 sequence from the right-hand side of the CPU, and the CPU link module with the smallest number is assigned as the first unit, with the other unit assigned as the second CPU link module.
Page 16
Chapter 4. Basic CPU Link Operations 3) Precautions related to assignment duplication Link areas assigned in local stations will become the areas for transmitting to other stations, and the remaining area will become the area for receiving from other stations, in accordance with link area assignment.
Chapter 4. Basic CPU Link Operations Function for accessing other stations It is possible to read, white and control the operations of monitor programs for other stations from peripheral devices connected to the CPU via the optical type CPU link module. An example of this is shown in figure 4.6.
Chapter 4. Basic CPU Link Operations Method of confirming link data validation 4.5.1 Link Error Flag Area When reading area data assigned to other stations, it is necessary to confirm that each station's link module is operating normally and that the CPU is running correctly at the very least. The method for doing this is by monitoring the link operation station flags (WRF05E to WRF08E and WRF145 to WFR148) and the CPU status flags (WRF0E9 to WRF0F8 and WRF149 to WFR158) and confirming all are set at ON (normal operations) before reading the assigned area data.
Chapter 4. Basic CPU Link Operations 4.5.2 Example of Effective check of Link Data Figure 4.7 shows the example which CPU module of link station No.0 checks the effective of link data (receive area) from other stations. ST32 ST63 Figure 4.7 CPU link configuration R7E4 WM0 :ST.
Chapter 5. Installation and start-up Chapter 5 Installation and start-up Installation 5.1.1 Installation position The available slot for EH-OLNK is slot 0, 1 or 2 of basic base at maximum 2 times. Slot No. Available slot 2 units can be mounted at maximum. Slot No.
Chapter 5. Installation and start-up 5.1.2 Loading the Module (1) Installing 1] Hook the claw at the lower section of the module to the hole in the base. 2] Press in the upper side of the module until it clicks. Note 1: After loading the module, check to make sure it does not come out.
Chapter 5. Installation and start-up 5.1.4 The supply of 5VDC for the bypass function Even if a power supply is turned off, the optical CPU link module equips the bypass function not to make a link system decline. You must supply 5VDC (No power failure) to the connector for the 5VDC supply from the outside to make a bypass function effective.
Chapter 5. Installation and start-up Start-up The procedure for starting up a link system is explained below. 1. Although there are no restrictions on the order in which the power supply to each station must be switched on when starting up a link system, link operations will not commence until the power has been switched on to station No.0 (the master station.) Create the program used for controlling and computing the link data after the master station's participation flag has been set at ON.
Chapter 6. Errors and error recovery Chapter 6 Errors and error recovery Errors If an error occurs with the optical link module or an abnormality arises with the transmission route, the status display LED will indicate the error. The error information will also be set in the special CPU internal output related to the relevant link module (R7DE, WRF007, WRF0E0 to WRF19F.) "1"...
Chapter 6. Errors and error recovery Error displays The LED displays when the following errors occur are explained below. (1) Normal operations (LED display status and module status) Status of LED indication & Condition of Link Module CPU LINK EH-OLNK The RUN LED lights.
Chapter 6. Errors and error recovery Troubleshooting This section provides a flowchart on the procedures for troubleshooting when recovering errors and when errors occur. As the EH-OLNK is equipped with e bypass function, it is possible to replace modules with units other than link modules without amending the architecture of the link system.
