System Interconnect The T-60 is designed to meet a variety of applications; therefore, it is impossible to describe a “standard” interconnect for the T-60. This section will describe each individual connector on the T-60 and how to apply them. Power / RS422 Connector The Power/RS422 Connector is an 8 pin screw terminal type connector which prov[...]

COM1 and COM2 Connectors COM1 and COM2 are the serial port connectors (DB-9 style, male). The pin-outs for these connectors are as follo ws: These connectors provide connection for serial communications between the T-60 and a variety of devices. Connections made with this connector are most commonly referred to as SERIAL PORTS. Examine your applica[...]

To perform RS485 serial c ommunications with the T-60, the RS422 transmitter and receiver lines must be tied together. Since the RS422 transmitters are disabled after power up, it is safe to assume that no line driver conflicts will occur. Again, refer to the RS422 Statement in the EMERSON EMC BASIC PROGRAMMING GUIDE. The electrical connection betw[...]

I/O Connector The I/O connector on the T-60 is designed to provide 8 bits of parallel I/O. Each line can be configured in software to perform input, output, or bidirectional operations. The pin-out is an industry standard 20 pin ribbon cable, compatible with industry standard PB-8 boards. Pinout as follows (even numbered pins - logic gro und): The [...]

Suppo rt for the T-60’s 8 bit I/O has been provided by the following commands. Some commands refer to 24 bits of I/O instead of 8. This reflects the compatability between the T-60 and the T-61 (the T-61 has 24 bits of I/O standard while the T-60 has 8 bits of I/O). The T-60 can only use the lower 8 bits of these commands. INP Input port data IO24[...]

ApplicationBuilder Included with your T-60 is a disk containing the ApplicationBuilder, a PC program which allows you to quickly generate programs for the T-60. The ApplicationBuilder generates BASIC programs from simple menu selections and direct screen entry of text. It consists of three components: the BUILDER, which converts menu selections and[...]

If your system has a hard drive, copy the contents of either of the diskettes onto the hard drive (make a separate directory first for ease of use). If you do not have a hard drive, place the disk labeled DISK 1 into your diskette drive.Log onto the drive with the ApplicationBuilder on it (i.e.. type A: or B: or C: followed by Enter). Type BUILD fo[...]

Simple Example To demonstrate the power of the ApplicationBuilder, a very simple example program will be read from disk, viewed, converted to BASIC, downloaded, and run. Select the FILE menu (ALT-F) and OPEN (move the cursor or type O) followed by ENTER. You will see a window appear which contains a listing of the demonstration builder files on the[...]

Press SOFTKEY F5. This is how you select PSEUDOCODES to place on screen. Type an S. Press ENTER. The SCREEN PSEUDOCODE has been selected. This allows you to type text directly on the screen. Press ESC (leave the program unchanged). Press SOFTKEY F8. This softkey generates BASIC. You may be asked if you wish to write over the existing BASIC program:[...]

Are you using the NULL MODEM cable supplied by EMERSON EMC? If not, check the cable for correct configuration. 6. Do you have memory resident programs loaded (TSR programs) which are presently running[...]

Builder Mode The Builder Mode is the heart of the ApplicationBuilder package. It allows you to easily develop a control and interface program, test the operator interface functionality of the program, and then generate the proper BASIC code to run in a T-60. You accomplish this by generating “Pseudocode”. You can enter a line of Pseudocode by p[...]

Entering Pseudocode falls into two categories: Entering/placing text on the screen and everything else. Pseudocodes that have nothing to do with text on screen are relatively simple. Each bit of information needed to complete a Pseudocode command is asked for one piece at a time. You can get from entry to entry with the Tab key or the Enter key. Th[...]

Editor Mode Editor Mode is a text editor allowing you to edit files off line from any serial device (such as a T-60.) This allows you to write and modify programs away from your machine and to use more powerful editing features than BASIC has built in. With the Editor, you can easily Cut, Copy, and Paste blocks of text from one area or program to a[...]

Terminal Mode The Up and Down cursor keys are not currently functional. If you want to move up or down on the screen, you must do it from the cursor keys on your T-60. If you are editing a line of BASIC, use the EDIT command which will position the cursor on the line you want to change. Terminal Mode basically turns your computer into a dumb termin[...]

Transfer Menu The Transfer menu is used to transfer files back and forth between your T-60 and your PC. You can Download from the PC to the Emerson T-60 or Upload from the product to your PC. You can also Verify whether a program in your interface matches one on your PC or not. You can also Start and verify communication between the two devices. Yo[...]

Array Variables An array is a group or table of values referenced by the same variable name. Each element in an array is referenced by an array variable that is a subscripted integer or an integer expression. The subscript is enclosed within parentheses. An array variable name has as many subscripts as there are dimensions in the array. For example[...]

Relational Operations Relational operators let you compare two values. The result of the comparison is either true (-1) or false (0). This result can then be used to make a decision regarding program flow. = Equality X = Y <> Inequality X <> Y < Less than X < Y > Greater than X > Y <= Less than or equal to X <= Y >=[...]

It is possible to use logical operators to test bytes for a particular bit pattern. For instance, the AND operator may be used to mask all but one of the bits of a status byte at a machine I/O port. The OR operator may be used to merge two bytes to create a particular binary value. The following examples demonstrate how the logical operators work: [...]

For example: “AA” < “AB” “FILENAME” = “FILENAME” “SMYTH” < “SMYTHE” B$ < “9/12/78” where B$ = “8/12/78” String comparisons can also be used to test string values or to alphabetize strings. All string constants used in comparison expressions must be enclosed in quotation marks. Strings can be concatenated by [...]

PLC Interface Commands Introduction The EMERSON EMC T-60 Series PLC Interfaces are designed to make many of the individual intricacies of the various PLC Interfaces transparent to the user. That is to say that reading a register in a Modicon PLC uses the same procedure as reading a register in an Omron PLC. This allows a given program to be written[...]

The tabel below shows the current PLC interface options. As mentioned above, the PLC Interfaces all work in a similar, if not identical, fashion (the -PL5, -SL5, -ID1, -MFX, and -SQD interfaces are more unique than any of the others - refer to the PLC SPECIFIC sections for detailed information on how to use these interfaces). Initialization of the [...]

CALL PLCINIT Statement Purpose: This command is used to initialize communication with a given PLC of a given type. CALL PLCINIT must be issued prior to any other communication (reading or writing) to the specified PLC. CALL PLCINIT does auto-baud rate detect for some PLC’s and sets up specific communications parameters for others. See the section[...]

cmd specifies the type of PLC protocol that you are initiating. This can vary depending upon PLC manufacturer, and possibly model, according to the following ta ble: Examples: 10 CALL PLCINIT(1,1) Establishes communication with a Modbus, GE Series 90, PLC-5, SLC-500, Omron Hostlink, or TI505 PLC (depending on the installed interface option) with an[...]

CALL PLCREAD Statement Purpose: This command is used to read the value(s) in a PLC’s registers, the status of bits, or any other accessible memory location within the PLC. Refer to the -PL5 and -SL5 for information on how to use this command with the Allen-Bradley PLC-5 and SLC-500 processors. Syntax: CALL PLCREAD (id,cmd,start address,# ofregist[...]

# of registers/bits is the number of consecutive registers, memory locations, or bits that you wish to read. Most PLC interfaces only allow you to read one at a time, and for many applications that is all you will need to read. If this is the case, # of registers/bits will be 1. If you wish to read more than one register or memory location at a tim[...]

CALL PLCWRITE Statement Purpose: This command is used to write value(s) to a PLC’s register(s), memory location(s), or to force one or more output bits in a PLC. Refer to the -PL5 and -SL5 for information on how to use this command with the Allen-Bradley PLC-5 and SLC-500 processors. Syntax: CALL PLCWRITE( id,cmd,start address,# of registers/bits[...]

# of registers/bits is the number of consecutive registers, memory locations, or bits that you wish to set.

If you are setting more than one, but less than 16 bits, yo[...]

-OM1 Interface Option Communications: The -OM1 Option uses the Omron Host Link protocol for communicating to all suitably equipped Omron PLC’s. The Omron Host Link port is connected to the T-60 or T-61’s COM1 port via the supplied cable. Both the T-60 and T-61 auto detect the communication parameters, so no setup is needed to get the two device[...]

The -OM1 Option limits you to reading or writing a maximum of 32 words of data (512 bits) during one read or write operation. For example, you are restricted to accessing 32 registers in the DM area with one CALL PLCREAD or CALL PLCWRITE command. Addre ssing bits in the -OM1 Option is a little different than in the rest of the PLC interfaces. The -[...]

The Omron status write must be performed in the following manner: CALL PLCWRITE(0,1,0,1,mode) mode: 0 - program 1 - debug 2 - monitor 3 - run The Omron PLC must be in the monitor mode to enable write commands to perform without errors. A CALL PLCINIT( id, 1) places the PLC into the monitor mode, but if your application has a programming panel or so[...]

-PL2 Interface Option (Preliminary) Communications: The -PL2 Option uses the programming port protocol for communicating to the Allen Bradley PLC-2. The T-60 Series can use the programming port on the PLC-2 CPU or the programming port on the 1771-KA2 Interface Module. The PLC-2 communication parameters are not configurable, so issuing the CALL PLCI[...]

For the T-60 this utilizes com port 1 and either port is available for use in the T-61. Connections: In order for the SeriesT-60 and the FX unit to communicate, a specialized cable is sent with th[...]

Available Commands : The commands listed in the table below list the commands available for the Mitsubishi FX series interfa ces. CALL PLCINIT Statement Purpose: This command is used to initialize communication with the FX. CALL PLCINIT must be issued prior to any other communication (reading or writing) to the specified PLC. CALL PLCINIT initializ[...]

Syntax: CALL PLCINIT( id,cmd ) Comments: id specifies the address of the FX - always use 1. cmd specifies the communications mode: 1 - RS422, COM1 - most common and recommended. 2 - RS422, COM2 - T-61 only 3 - RS232 COM 1 - Must use an RS232 to RS422 adapter 4 - RS232 COM 2 - Must use an RS232 to RS422 adapter Examples: 10 CALL PLCINIT(1,1) Establi[...]

than 16 bits of data, this variable MUST be a short integer (%) array variable. If you are reading registers or memory locations that are stored as words and the # of registers/bits is greater than one, this will be a short integer array (make sure you properly dimension the array prior to using it). If you are reading the status of more than one, [...]

location at a time, this number will be the number of consecutive registers or locations you wish to write. If you are writing the status of more than one I/O bit, this number will be the number of consecutive bits you wish to write. expression/variable/array is the expression, variable or array data you wish to write to the PLC’s I/O, registers,[...]

-SQD SQUARE D SY/MAX PLC Interface Communications: The SQD PLC option uses the SY/MAX RS422 port to communicate with the T-60 Series products. The connections are as fol lows: Figure 30 T-60 Interface Cable: Figure 31 T-61 Interface Cable: T-60 Operator's Manual 98[...]

CALL PLCINIT Statement Purpose: This command is used to initialize communication with the SY/MAX. CALL PLCINIT must be issued prior to any other communication (reading or writing) to the specified PLC. CALL PLCINIT auto detects the baud rate and parity. Either COM 1 or COM 2 can be specified. Note that on T-60 ’s only COM 1 is available (T-60 ’[...]

Comments: id specifies the route. See CALL PLCINIT above. start address is the starting address of the register(s) you are interested in reading. [bit position] is an optional parameter which specifies the position within a 16 bit register to start reading from. An allowable range for bit position is 1 through 16. By specifying this parameter, a bi[...]

This command reads the data in register number 47 with and stores it in the variable regdat1%. 10 CALL PLCREAD(1,100,5,2,bits%) This command reads two bits from register 100 starting at bit position 5. The result is placed in the variable bits% with register 100, bit 5 in bit position 0, and register 100 bit 6 in bit position 6. CALL PLCWRITE State[...]

variable/array is the variable name or array name where you wish to store the data you are writing. If you are writing only one register or bit, you may use any variable type you wish. If you are writing multiple registers, this variable can either be a short integer (%) array variable or a constant (like 1234). If you are writing registers or memo[...]
