1. OUTLINE This manual describes the communication function of the SR Mini HG SYSTEM and the LG Industrial Systems programmable controller (hereafter called PLC). This manual is attached when the model code of H-PCP-J module is H-PCP-J- -D∗ -05E. For details of the H-PCP-J module, see the Power Supply/CPU Module H-PCP-J Instruction Manual (IMS01J02-E ).

The following function module data can be used in PLC communication (see “Data map” on page 24). In addition, data on other modules connected (TI, AI, AO, etc.) can be used on one more communication port (RKC communication or Modbus). Function module...
2. COMMUNICATION SPECIFICATIONS Interface: Based on RS-422A, EIA standard Connection method: RS-422A: 4-wire system, multi-drop connection Synchronous method: Start/stop synchronous type Communication speed: 9600 bps, 19200 bps, 38400 bps Communication speed can be selected with switch Data bit configuration: Start bit: 1 Data bit: 8 Parity bit: Without Stop bit:...

Recommended model: TM4P-66P (Manufactured by HIROSE ELECTRIC CO., LTD.,) Customer is requested to prepare a communication cable fit for the control unit to be connected by the PLC. Connection cable W-BF-01 * (RKC product) can use to connect PLC. * Shields of the cable are connected to SG (No. 6 pin) of the H-PCP-J connector.
4. SETTING ON THE H-PCP-J MODULE SIDE 4.1 PLC Register Address Setting Set the file register address of each control unit using the unit address setting switch at the front of the H-PCP-J module. For this setting, use a small blade screwdriver. Unit address setting switch Setting range: 0 to 15 (0 to F: hexadecimal)

4. SETTING ON THE H-PCP-J MODULE SIDE Setting example: When group 2 is used (for the GLOFA-GM series) Unit address 4 SR Mini HG SYSTEM Register address: control unit MW2000 to MW2499 Unit address 5 SR Mini HG SYSTEM Register address: control unit MW2500 to MW2999 Address in the...
4. SETTING ON THE H-PCP-J MODULE SIDE 4.2 Protocol Selection and Communication Setting Match the setting of data bit configuration, communication speed and communication protocol with the PLC communication specification by COM.PORT1/COM.PORT2 setting switch (SW2). Setting example to recommend is shown in the following. COM.PORT1/COM.PORT2 setting switch (SW2) GLOFA-GM...
4.3 PLC Scanning Time Setting Set the PLC scanning time (time of waiting for a response from the PLC) so as to adapt to the environment used. The PLC scanning time is set via host communication (RKC communication or Modbus).
5. SETTING ON THE PLC SIDE Set the PLC as follows. (Recommend setting example) Item Description Mode Channel RS422 side Station Type RS422 Data bit Parity bit Without Stop bit Transmission speed 38400 bps Termination resistor Termination resistor is inserted The setting item varies depending on the PLC.
6. COMMUNICATION DATA 6.1 Request Command and Data Transfer Data transfer between PLC and SR Mini HG SYSTEM are executed by request command. Request command “0: Monitor (PLC ← SR Mini HG SYSTEM)” Command which requests the SR Mini HG SYSTEM to write data such as temperature measured values, etc.
Page 18
6. COMMUNICATION DATA Data transfer procedures Change each set value of SR Mini HG SYSTEM from the PLC after the initial settings are made. If each set value of SR Mini HG SYSTEM is changed from the PLC without setting the initial values, it is re-written to 0 with each set value of the PLC at that time set to 0.
Page 19
6. COMMUNICATION DATA Data setting (When transmit data of temperature setting values from PLC to SR Mini HG SYSTEM) Start Set temperature set value (SV) and other setting data to each register (memory) in the PLC. [Data setting] Set “1” to the request When 1 (Setting) is set to request command, the command starts reading the temperature set...
Page 20
6. COMMUNICATION DATA Continued from the previous page. [Confirmation of setting data] Set “2” to the request When 2 (Set value monitor) is set to request command, command starts writing the temperature SR Mini HG SYSTEM set value data set to the PLC side. PCP communication If 3 (Writing on setting data) is set to PCP state = 3 ?
6. COMMUNICATION DATA 6.2 Data Processing Precautions With PLC communication, the maximum number of channels per unit address is 20. Read data of unused channel and undefined address is 0. The data type is treated as binary data with a sign and without a decimal point. For this reason, carefully express and set the data.
Page 22
6. COMMUNICATION DATA Some communication data may become invalid depending on the module selection or the configuration of the SR Mini HG System control unit. If any one of the conditions listed below occurs and data items written are within the setting range, read data becomes 0.
6. COMMUNICATION DATA 6.3 Communication Data List • Name Item stored in the memory area. [ ]: The functional module name that data becomes valid is written. • Attributes RO: At the time of request command “0: Monitor,” SR Mini HG SYSTEM writes in data. (SR Mini HG SYSTEM →...
