AHxxEMC-5A provides one serial interface through USB: COM1.
AHBP05M2-5A (AH motion backplane) provides one serial interface through terminal block: COM2.
You can use the USB serial interface (COM1) as RS-232 and terminal block serial interface (COM2) as RS-485
according to the application. The data transfer rate can be increased from 9600 bps to 115200bps.
ISPSoft,can perform automatic data exchange simply by filling the data exchange form in the software. Users do
not need to write any program for this purpose and can save time and efforts. For details of data exchange
between devices, refer to ISPSoft User Manual.
6. Memory card
The memory card has the following functions.
System backup: for user program, CPU parameters, module tables, and setting values in devices.
System recovery: for user program, CPU parameters, module tables, and setting values in devices.
Parameter storage: The values in the devices
Log storage: The system error log and the system status log
7. Hot swap
The AH motion series I/O modules support the on-line uninterruptible hot swapping. When the system runs, users
can replace the module with error without stopping the system or setting the module to offline state. After the

Software Features
1. Complying with IEC 61131-3
The AH Motion CPU complies with IEC 61131-3 editing environment which supports various programming
languages, multiple function blocks, tasks, and symbol tables.
The programming languages which are supported are, structured texts (ST), ladder diagrams (LD), sequential
function charts (SFC), and Continuous Function Chart (CFC).
You can select a programming language according to your preference and the convenience. The programming
languages support one another so that the programs written by different users are related.
2. Various function blocks*
In addition to standard IEC61131-3 function blocks (including PLCopen motion control function blocks), we also
offer various convenient function blocks (DFB). You can write the program frequently executed in a function block
so that the program becomes more structured and can be executed more conveniently.
The encryption function supported by ISPSoft provides the secrecy of function blocks for special businesses. The
program inside a function block cannot be learned, and the patent of a business will not be infringed.
*Note: A function block is a program element equipped with the operation function. It is similar to a subroutine, and is
a type of POU (Program Organization Unit). It cannot operate by itself, and has to be called through the program POU.
After the related parameters are transmitted, the function defined by a function block is executed. Besides, the final
operation result can be sent to the device or variable used in the superior POU after the execution of the function
block is complete.
3. Task
The user program supports 283 tasks at most: 32 cyclic tasks, 32 I/O interrupt tasks, 212 external interrupt tasks, 1
24V LV detection, 4 timed interrupt tasks, and 2 communication interrupt tasks.
Users can enable and disable a task during the execution of a program by means of TKON and TKOFF.
4. On-line debugging mode
After a single instruction step has been complete, or after a breakpoint is specified, users can easily find the bug in
the program by means of the on-line debugging mode supported by the AH Motion CPU.
Note: Structured Text (ST) do not support on-line debugging mode, and sequential function charts (SFC)
programming support the debugging mode during the action and the transition.

5. On-line editing mode
When the system runs, users can make use of the on-line editing mode to update the program without affecting
the operation of the system.
1.1.2. Overview of the System Configurations
The two categories of system configurations of AH Motion series motion control CPU are as follows.
Basic System Configurations
The AH Motion series CPU basic configurations include the AH Motion CPU Network Configuration, AH500 Series
Module Configuration, and Supported Software.
AH Motion Network Configuration
- AHxxEMC-5A
You can use the EtherCAT master port built in on the CPU interface to connect to slave devices such as analog and digital
I/O, servo drives, AC motor drives and encoder input devices. With EtherCAT network configuration, you can design a
system capable of performing very accurate sequence and motion control in a fixed cycle.
AH500 Series Module Configuration
With the motion backplane, you can also add AH500 series I/O modules* in addition to the EtherCAT network. AH500
series modules can be installed directly to the motion backplane where the CPU module is mounted.
*Note: a few of AH500 series I/O modules are not supported by the motion backplane. Refer to Ch2 System
Configuration for the list of supported products.
Supported Software
ISPSoft is the major programming software that you use for an AH Motion series motion controller. You can connect the
software on the computer to the USB interface on the CPU module through a commercially available USB cable. You can
also connect ISPSoft to the Ethernet port on the CPU module with an Ethernet cable or to the built-in RS-485 port on the
Motion backplane with a RS-485 cable and a converting device, e.g. IFD6500 USB/RS-485 converter. In addition to
ISPSoft, you can also use other software for configuring various applications based on different networks.

Other Network Configurations
Through the network interfaces on the AH motion CPU and the motion backplane, you can connect host computers,
Human Machine Interfaces (HMI) and other AH series PLCs with RS-232(USB), RS-485, and EtherNet/IP networks. In
addition, you can also create CANopen network and additional serial communication network (RS-485) by mounting
AH500 series network modules on the motion backplane.
