Safety Precautions
To reduce the chance of accident, please read the safety precautions very carefully before operation. The "Caution, Notice, Warning, Danger" symbols in this manual do not represent all the safety points to be observed, and are only used as a supplement to various operation safety points. Therefore, the installation and operation personnel must be strictly trained and master the correct operations and all the safety points before actual operation. When operating Emerson PLC products, the safety rules in the industry, the general safety points and special safety instructions specified in this manual must be strictly observed. These notices are highlighted in the manual by a warning triangle and are marked as follows according to the level of danger: Danger: indicates that death, severe personal injury, or substantial property damage will result if proper precautions are not taken. Warning: indicates that death, severe personal injury, or substantial property damage could possibly result if proper precautions are not taken. Caution: indicates that minor personal injury or property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken. Notes for designing The programming must include safety circuit to ensure the safe application of the PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) system upon power off or the PLC malfunction. Note the following when programming: The external circuit of the PLC must include the emergency braking circuit, protection circuit, mutual interlock circuit of forward/reverse rotation, and the interlock switch of position upper/lower limit for preventing equipment from damage. For the safe operation of the equipment and output signals of the serious accident, please design the external protection circuit and the safety mechanism. All the outputs may be shutdown when the CPU of the PLC detects the abnormity of the system; the failure of part PLC circuit may result in uncontrolled PLC output. A suitable external control circuit must be designed to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. When the PLC output unit such as the relay or the transistor is damaged, the PLC output cannot be controlled as ON or OFF state. The PLC is designed to be used in the electrical environment of indoor area B and C. However, to prevent the high lightning voltage from damaging the equipment through the ports of power input, signal input or control output, a SPD should be installed in the power supply system. : According to IEC61131-2, section 8.3.1 classification declaration Notes for installation Units should not be installed in areas subject to the following conditions: excessive or conductive dust, corrosive or flammable gas, moisture or rain, excessive heat, regular impact shocks or excessive vibration. Electric shock, fire hazard and mishandling may also damage the product. Take special care not to allow metal debris and wire lead to fall inside the vent of the PLC during the screw hole processing and wiring. Otherwise there is a danger of fire, damage or faulty operation of equipment. Once the installation of the new PLC is complete, remove everything on the surface of the vent, including packing goods such as protective paper. Otherwise the poor ventilation during the operation may result in fire, damage or faulty operation of equipment.

Do not wire, inset or pull out the cable plug with power applied. Otherwise there is a danger of electric shock or circuit damage. Installation and wiring must be fastening and reliable. Bad contact may result in faulty operation of equipment. The input/output cable of high frequency signal should use the shielding cable to improve the interference rejection of the system.
Notes for wiring Installation and wiring can be done only after the external power supplies are all disconnected. Otherwise there is a danger of electric shock or equipment damage. Once the installation and wiring of the PLC is complete, cleanup the spot at once. To prevent the electric shock, replace the port cover of the product before power is on. When wiring AC supplies, the Live cable should be connected to the L terminal and the Neutral cable should be connected to the N terminal. Otherwise the PLC will be damaged. Dont power +24V port of the main module by the external power supply. Otherwise the PLC will be damaged. Do not lay I/O signal cables of the PLC next to other power cables or strong interference circuits. Do not make the earth port (PG) of the main module and the heavy current power system share the same earthing.
Notes for operation and maintenance Do not touch the ports when the power is applied, otherwise there is a danger of an electric shock or faulty operation of equipment. The cleaning and the fastening work can be done only after the power supply has been disconnected; otherwise there is a danger of electric shock. Only after the power supply has been disconnected, can the communication signal cables and the cables of the expansion module or control unit be connected or removed. Otherwise there is a danger of equipment damage or faulty operation of equipment. Do not disassemble the PLC. Otherwise it may destroy the inner electrical components. Read through this manual carefully before operating the PLC. Safe and efficient operation of the product, such as program alternation, trial operation, start and stop, is only based on correct operation and maintenance. Do not replace the button cell battery with power applied. If the battery replacement is indeed to be done with power applied, it shall always be carried out by adequately trained electric technical personnel wearing insulated gloves.

Notes for the product disposal Note the following when disposing the PLC: Explosive of the electrolytic capacity: The capacities on the circuit board may explode when burning. Exhaust gas when burning: The main body of the PLC is plastic, and it may produce poisonous gas when burning. Disposal of button cell battery: Classified collecting and disposing, and separating from the daily-life rubbish.
Follow the local environmental regulations to dispose the PLC or dispose it as industrial waste.

Chapter 3 Installation
3.1 Notes For Installation
The PLC is designed to be used in the environments meeting with standard II installation ambient, and Class 2 pollution. So the unit should be installed in such environment free of dust, conductive dust, corrosive or flammable gas, excessive heat, moisture or rain; Besides, shocks and vibrations will also affect the reliability of the PLC and shorten its service life, and should therefore be avoided. Usually, the user should mount the PLC and the associated switches, contactors to the inside wall of the electric cabinet and keep adequate natural convection. If the ambient temperature is a little high, or a heat generating equipment is nearby, then a forced convection device should be installed on the top or the side of the cabinet to prevent the overheat of the unit. Take special care not to allow metal debris and wire lead to fall inside the vent of the PLC during the screw hole processing and wiring. Otherwise there is a danger of fire, damage or faulty operation of equipment. Once the installation of the new PLC is complete, remove everything on the surface of the vent, including packing goods such as protective paper. Otherwise the poor ventilation during the operation may result in fire, damage or faulty operation of equipment. Do not wire, inset or pull out the cable plug with power applied. Otherwise there is a danger of electric shock or circuit damage. Installation and wiring must be firm and reliable; bad contact may result in faulty operation of equipment.
3.2
Requirements For Installation Position

To prevent a rise in temperature, mount the PLC up and down to the backboard of the cabinet horizontally. Never mount them to the floor or ceiling of an enclosure or other directions, as shown in the Figure 3-1. You must provide a clearance of at least 15 mm, both above and below the units, for proper cooling. No heat generating equipment
should exist around the PLC.
Figure 3-1
Requirements for installation position
3.3
Installation Method
Generally you can mount the PLC onto a standard rail (DIN) with 35mm width. Follow these steps: 1. Fix the DIN rail to the backboard; 2. Pull out the clip (located on the bottom of the PLC) and hook the back of the PLC onto the rail. 3. Snap the clip closed, carefully checking to ensure that the clip has fastened the PLC securely onto the rail. 4. At last, install two DIN rail stops at the two sides of the PLC to avoid slippage around. Other EC20 series modules can be mounted using the same procedures.

Output2 (24V/GND): Output2 is the working power of the PLC main module relay output circuit, and provides power supply to the expansion module relay output circuit through the expansion port of the module at the same time. Output1 and output2 share the common ground. And this power will not be used for the expansion module with self-carried power source. 3. Output3 (24V/COM): Output3 is the 24V power supply, which is provided to users by the PLC main module. Also it can be used as an auxiliary power to other user circuits, sensors or expansion modules through the 24V and COM ports of the main module. Output3 is electrical isolated with Output1 and Output2.

*Explanation: The current of Inner consumption in Table 4-10 is the average current consumed when the module inner circuit works. Users cannot change it directly. The current of capacity provided in Table 4-10 is the part capacity of the main module that can be used for the external control module. The data listed in Table 4-10 is under the stable ambient condition with 25C. If input voltage is out of rated voltage range or the working temperature exceeds +50C, users should consider the derating design, which is mainly obtained by decreasing the value of capacity provided, to ensure the reliable operation of the PLC.

Derating Design Of Power Supply Circuit

1. Relation between power supply output capacity derating and power supply input voltage When the input voltage of the PLC is beyond the rated voltage range, users should consider decreasing the main modules output power to the expansion module. The derating relation is shown in Figure 4-2.

2. Power output capacity derating vs. work temperature relationship When the work temperature is higher than the upper limit of the specification, the power capacity provided (including 5V/24V/GND and 24V/COM) by the main module to the expansion module must be derating.

: Refer to the power consumption when the analog output channel port connects with the output. If the current output port (0~20mA) is not used, the current can be decreased to 50mA.
4.7.6
Power Capacity Calculation In Expansion Connection

Before the PLC connects with an expansion module, users should calculate the current sum of each power supply of the expansion module, and ensure the current sum is less than the output current provided by the corresponding power supply of the main module to avoids the over loading of the main module power supply. Example 1: the main module is EC20-2012BR, at 25C ambient temperature, two EC20-0808ET, two EC20-4AD, one EC20-4DA and one EC20-4TC shall be connected to, verifying the feasibility. Checking computations as following:
Power circuit 5V/GND 24V/GND 24V/COM Current provided by the main module 750mA 580mA 460mA Actual consumed current (802+502+50+50) = 360mA (02+02+0+0) =0 mA (502+252+110+25) = 285mA conclusion Pass Pass Pass
It is obvious that the total power consumption of above expansion module is less than the permission load of the main module, and the designing scheme is feasible. Example 2: the main module is EC20-3232BT, at 25C ambient temperature, three EC20-0808ET, two EC20-4AD, one EC20-4DA shall be connected to, using 20mA output port and one EC20-4TC. Checking computations as following:
Power circuit 5V/GND 24V/GND 24V/COM Current provided by the main module 350mA 650mA 360mA Actual consumed current (803+502+50+50)=440mA (503+02+0+0)=150mA (503+252+120+25)=345mA conclusion Un-passed Pass Pass
The sum of the 5V/GND power consumption of the expansion module is 440mA, it is larger than 350mA which is the upper limit of 5V power supply; although the power consumption of 24V/GND and 24V/COM is less than the permitted current of the main module, the designing scheme is unfeasible. The solution to solve the insufficient of power supply capacity is to select the expansion module with self-carried power source. It can power by itself, also its outputs of 5Vdc/GND, 24Vdc/GND, and 24Vdc/COM can power to the expansion module added later.

Interrupt Input Connection

For the system that responds promptly to the input signal, it can use the interrupt to process the signals. The input ports of X0~X7 have interrupt function and corresponds to the eight external interrupt sources. If the input port is used as interrupt process mode, the corresponding interrupt control identification should be enabled when programming and the corresponding interrupt routine should be programmed (for details, refer to Programming Reference Manual). When using interrupt, the digital filter function of corresponding X port will be disabled and the filter time of the corresponding port is set as zero automatically. When used as high-speed count input or interrupt input, the corresponding input port should use shielding wire, and the shielding wire should connect to earth line (same as PG port) to improve the interference rejection. Some counters require multiple X input ports to realize (for example, C242, C244, and C254 consist of 2, 3, 4 ports separately). After using this kind of counter, the used ports cannot be used as input of other counters and the common input mode. The input port of the counter has the limitation for the maximum frequency. Beyond the limitation, it may result the incorrect counting or normal operation of the system. You should use the input port reasonable and select the suitable external sensors.
5.6
Input Signal Status Indication

The input status LEDs indicate the status of the user input port. When the input port is closed (ON state), the LED is on; otherwise the LED is off. When the X0~X7 ports input high frequency signal, the flashing frequency of the LED may be lower than that of the actual input signal, which is for the convenience of the user to observe the characteristics of the port signals.

Analog Potentiometer And Application

The analog potentiometer provides external channel for users setting inner soft-device, which is within 0~255 and read by user program. When adjusting the setting value, users can use a small Philips screwdriver to rotate the potentiometer clockwise to increase the setting value, and counter clockwise to decrease it. The maximum angle of rotation is 270. Do not energize excess.

Example Of Input Connection

The high-speed ports of X3~X7 connect to the travel switch which needs quickly response, other user signals can be distributed with input ports.

6.1 Output Port Application
1. The output type of EC20 series PLC can be divided into relay type and transistor type. Both types are greatly different in the operation parameters. You should distinguish the difference before using them to avoid the damage by the misuse. 2. To protect the contacts of the PLC output relay, when the drive DC circuit is inductive (such as relay coil), a fly-wheel diode shall be connected to the user circuit; when the drive AC circuit is inductive, a RC surge absorber shall parallel connect to the user circuit. In principle, the relay output port does not connect to the capacitive load. If there is necessary to use, its surge current must be less than the maximum current in the specification list (see Table 6-1). 3. The transistor output port should be within the limitation of the allowable maximum current (see Table 6-1) to ensure the thermal value of the output port is limited in the allowable range. If output currents of multiple transistors are bigger than 100mA, they should be distributed equally in the output ports. Distributed adjacent will affect the heat dissipation. 4. It is recommended the output points which are in the ON (conducting) state at one time shall not exceed 60% total output points for a long time.

The status of the control output port is indicated by the output status LEDs. When the output port is closed (ON) state (the status between Yn and COMn is closed), the LED is on; otherwise the LED is off. When the Y0 and Y1 port of the transistor output PLC output high frequency signal, the flashing frequency of the LED may be lower than the actual output signal frequency, which is convenient for user observation.

Other output groups (i.e. Y2~Y7) can connect to 220Vac signal circuit. That is to say, different output group can work at different voltage level.

Expansion Module Addressing

EC20 series main module can automatically recognize the expansion module connected to, and be sequential addressing automatically without user interference. When the system is normal after power on, the module conducts auto addressing once. Hereafter the address of each expansion module keeps unchanged during operation. Do not connect or disconnect any I/O expansion module or special function modules when the PLC is operating; otherwise the PLC may be damaged and cannot operate normally. You should power on the expansion module with self-carried power source and the main module at the same time, or power on the expansion module before the main module to ensure the reliable addressing of the expansion module.

7.3.1
I/O Point Addressing Number Principle

I/O point numbering uses octal numbering system, and the serial number is as following: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 20, 21, without the figure 8 and 9. The numbering of the input port of the main module and I/O expansion module is: X0, X1, X2, X7, X10, X11; the output port is: Y0, Y1, Y2, Y7, Y10, Y11, and so on. Eight point numbers are a group. Insufficient section will be vacant. For example: EC20-2012BR module, the input port has 20 points, with serial number X0~X23. The port with serial number X24~X24 will be vacant; the X port of the subsequent expansion module is numbering from X30. In the same way, the output port has 12 points, the serial number is Y0~Y13, the port with serial number Y14~Y17 will be vacant and the Y port of the subsequent expansion module is numbering from Y20. According to the connection sequence to the main module, the numbering of X and Y ports of the I/O expansion module is in the increasing order. The example for the port logic numbering of the main module and the expansion module is as following:
EC20-2012BR 0808ER 0808ER 4AD 4AD 4DA 0808ER 4TC
X0 -X23 Y0 -Y13
X30-X37 Y20-Y27
X40-X47 Y30-Y37
X50-X57 Y40-Y47
7.3.2
Special Function Module Addressing Number Principle

The addressing number of the special function module is according to the unit of the module and independent of I/O expansion module addressing. Its address numbering is as following: 1, 2, 3, 6, 7; the minimum address number is 0; the maximum is 7. Eight special function modules can be connected to at the same time, and the number of the I/O expansion module added later will not affect the special function module addressing number. Take the module addressing number as the distinguishing identification upon call on. The software read-writing the corresponding data buffer memory (BFM) of the module with assigned address can call on the different channel inside the expansion module. More details refer to programming reference manual.

9.1 Connecting Power Supply Cable
Warning EC20 series PLC module have two kinds of input power supply: 220Vac and 24Vdc. You should check and identify before the wiring and powering on the module to avoid the equipment damage and other damages due to misoperation. The PLC is designed for use in control circuit. There should have SPD in its AC power circuit, and its power circuit should be separated from the power circuit to avoid the overvoltage. Do not connect AC power supply with 24Vdc output port of the main module, or connect DC power with 24Vdc output port of the main module. Do not connect or disconnect the cable with power on. Otherwise it may get an electric shock or equipment damage.

Connecting Ground Cable

The reliable connection of an earth line can strengthen the safety and improve the PLC immunity to electromagnetism. When installing, connect PG port of the PLC power supply with the earthing object. It is recommended to use the AWG12~16 connection cable, as short as possible, and use an independent earthing device. A common route with the earthing line of other equipment (especially for the equipment with strong interference) should be avoided. As shown in Figure 9-2:
PLC Other equipment PLC Other equipment PLC Other equipment

Connecting Common Port

When wiring PLC system, there may be multiple cables connecting with the same port, such as +24V, COM, output common port COMn (refer to the figures in Section 5.9 and 6.5). The proper wiring method is to use an extension terminal bar with corresponding identification, which is convenient for wiring.
9.4
Cable Specification
When wiring PLC system, it is recommended to use the multi-strand copper wire and ready-made isolated terminals to ensure the wiring quality. The recommended cross-sectional area and the model of the wire see Table 9-1.

10.1 Notes For Application
All the notes of the manual should be read prior to using the product. Users should install, wire and check before power on strictly according to the requirements mentioned in this book. Only everything is identified to be okay, can the PLC be powered on.
10.2
Check Before Power On

1. Make sure the power supply input voltage is in complaint with the PLC rated input voltage, the power supply cable connects with the right connectors. Note: 220Vac power ports are L and N; but 24Vdc power ports are DC24V , and do not confuse with +24V and COM port. 2. Check to ensure that user signal input line connects with the ports of the PLC input line, and the signal character complies with the input port electric criterion. 3. Check the output port. If the output circuit has different voltage level, the different level should distribute different output groups to avoid short circuit and equipment damage. 4. Make sure the wiring and the specification of the earthing line are in compliant with the requirement. 5. Make sure irrelevant objects falls inside the PLC and the heat dissipation channel is free. 6. Make sure the insulating paper on the holder of the button lithium cell is removed. 7. Make sure the communication signal cable connects correctly if the host or HMI is needed. 8. After checking the items mentioned above one by one, then power on the PLC.
10.3
Startup
1. Switch on the PLC, the POWER indicator of the PLC should be on. 2. Startup the Controlstar software, download the compiled user program to the PLC; 3. After checking the download program, switch the operation switch to RUN position, the RUN indicator should be on; if the ERR indicator is on, it indicates that the user program or the system has mistake, then remove the mistake referring to the programming reference manual. 4. Then switch on the circuit breaker of the PLC external system to carry through system debugging.
10.4
RUN/STOP Switchover
The operation statuses of the main module include RUN and STOP. RUN When the main module operation status is ON, user program will be executed by the system, which is a scan period including four tasks (executing the user program communicating housekeeping refreshing I/O). STOP When the main module operation status is STOP, the system does not execute the user program, but still execute other three tasks in a scan period (communicating housekeeping refreshing I/O).
30
10.4.1
How To Startup (STOP RUN)

Reset mode Status switch is in ON position, after resetting (including power on resetting), the system starts up automatically. Note: if the input point control mode in the system configuration is enabled, the status of the appointed input point should be ON. Otherwise the system cannot startup. The description about the input point control mode refers to the fourth pieces in the following. Manual mode In the STOP state, toggle the status switch from OFF or TM position to ON position, the system stars up automatically. Communication command mode In the STOP state, the system stars up automatically upon receiving the RUN communication command. Input point control mode In the STOP state, the main module starts up automatically when the system detects the status change from OFF ON of the appointed input port. Note
When selecting input point control mode, you should enable the input point control mode in the system configuration and set the status switch in ON position.
10.4.2
How To Stop (RUN STOP)

Reset mode The status switch is in OFF position, and the system will stop automatically after resetting (including system power on reset). Note
If the input point control mode is enabled in the system configuration, the state of the input point should be OFF; otherwise the system will not stop. Manual mode In the RUN state, after the status switch is toggled from ON or TM position to OFF position, the system stops. Communication command mode In the RUN state, the system stops when receiving the STOP communication command. Instruction control mode In the RUN state, after the STOP instruction in the user program is executed effectively, the system stops. Stop by mistake When the system detects the serious mistake (such as the user program error, overtime operation), the system stops executing the user program automatically.
10.5

Routine Maintenance
The routine maintenance should check the following: Ensure the clearance of the PLC operation environment, and avoid the impurity and the dust falling inside the PLC. Keep the ventilation and heat dissipation of the PLC in good condition. All the wiring and the terminals are reliable fixed and in the normal state.
31
Observe the PLC BATT indicator and know the capacity state of the standby battery. When the BATT indicator flashing, it indicates that the battery capacity is insufficient and the new button lithium cell should be replaced during a month; when the BATT indicator is on, it indicates that the battery voltage is severe insufficient or battery lost, and a new button lithium cell should be replaced as soon as possible. Only trained personnel can replace the cell; the power must be disconnected; the shorter the replacement time the better; the replacement should be within one minute to avoid losing the backup data and the real time clock data.
32
Chapter 11 Troubleshooting
Chapter 11 Troubleshooting
When the PLC works abnormally, first check the wiring of the power supply line and the status of the relative switches and protective device; if PLC is power on, check whether the user ports are fastness, the position of the run control switch is right; if all the conditions are normal but the PLC still does not work, you can analyze the problem according to the PLC operation state and the I/O state LEDs in Table 11-1.
