LCB01/05 Version 1.5 Upgrade Information

Change Sequences during
Sequence Execution
(Supported by CX-Process
Tool Version 3.2 or Higher)
Display PVs and Change
SPs for Timers and
Counters in Sequence
Tables
(Supported by CX-Process
Tool Version 3.2 or Higher)
Note The HMI functions corresponds to the Receive All (Block Model 461) and
Send All (Block Model 462) blocks in the Loop Control Units.
It is also possible to add tags from the user link table as CSV tags following
the HMI tags. Doing so enables using User Link Table tags from the SCADA
software to read and write CPU Unit I/O memory.
Connect ES100X Controllers Externally (CS1W-LCB01/05 Only)
ES100X Controllers can be connected to the RS-232C port on the Loop Con-
troller and ES100X External Controller Terminal function blocks can be used
to monitor ES100X parameters, such as the SP, PV, and MV, and to set
ES100X parameters, such as the SP and PID constants. Converting from RS-
232C to RS-422A/485 enables connecting up to 32 ES100X Controllers.
Message Communications by FINS Commands
Data on each of the function blocks can also be read and written as desired
by issuing FINS commands by the CMND (DELIVER COMMAND) command
in the Step Ladder Program on the CPU Unit or by issuing FINS commands
from the host computer. Function block data can also be read and written from
PLCs (CPU Units) on other networked nodes.
Duplex Systems
In a duplex system with two CS1D Process-control CPU Units, the Process-
control CPU Unit (CS1D-CPU@@P) will continue to operate even if a fatal
Inner Board error occurs in the Loop Controller of one Process-control CPU
Unit. The system will switch to the Loop Controller of the other Process-con-
trol CPU Unit and Loop Controller operation (loop control) will continue. Fur-
thermore, when the cause of the error is removed, the Loop Controllers will
automatically reset to the original duplex operation status, just like duplex
CPU Units. This makes the Loop Controllers of Process-control CPU Units
suitable for 24-hour continuous operation systems.
Note When using a Process-control CPU Unit (CS1D-CPU@@P), the function block
operation cycle must be a minimum of 5 times the CS1D CPU Unit cycle time
and also must be set to either 100 ms, 200 ms, 500 ms, 1 s, or 2 s.
The following functions have been added to the LCB01/05 with the upgrade to
version 1.5.
When validating sequence tables, sequence tables can be edited online while
the Loop Controller and sequence tables are operating. Sequence table oper-
ation continues even after the sequence tables have been edited online and
downloaded.
To perform this function, select Edit - Start from the Sequence Table Action
Validation Screen, and after editing the table, select Edit - Download.
Note Previously, sequence tables could be downloaded one at a time while the
Loop Controller was operating. After downloading, however, the tables would
be executed from step 1. As a result, operation did not continue during the
time the tables were downloading.
When validating sequence tables, the present values of elements (timers and
counters) are displayed. The set values for the elements (timers, counters)
can also be changed during operation of the Loop Controller and sequence
tables.
