Remote I/O
terminal
1. Overview
The open field network ProfiBus-DP is a multi-bit, multi-vendor network for communication of both control and
data signals of the machine/line control level.
A wire-saving system can be built by connecting IAI’s X-SEL, RCS-C, E-Con and Scon controllers to a
ProfiBus-DP network.
On a ProfiBus-DP network, X-SEL, RCS-C, E-Con and Scon controllers are recognized as slave stations
(remote I/O terminals) capable of communicating I/O data.
* For details on ProfiBus-DP, refer to the operation manual for the programmable controller (hereinafter referred
to as “PLC”) in which the master unit is installed.
This operation manual should be used in conjunction with the operation manual for the X-SEL, RCS-C, E-Con
or Scon controller you are using.
You should also assume that any usage not specifically permitted in this operation manual is prohibited.

3. Connecting to an X-SEL
3.1 ProfiBus-DP Board Types and Installation Positions in the X-SEL
X-SEL controllers that support ProfiBus-DP are the J type (compact type) and K type (general-purpose type).
The installation position of a ProfiBus-DP board is different depending on whether the board is of PR0 type or
PR1 type.
* The PR1 board can be installed in any one of expansion I/O slots 1 to 3.
(1) Compact type (J type)
1-axis specification 2-axis specification 3/4-axis specification
Fig. 3.1
Note 1) An I/O board cannot be installed in 1-axis and 2-axis specifications, because the ProfiBus-DP board
occupies the only slot available.
Note 2) With 3-axis and 4-axis specifications, only the “PR0” ProfiBus-DP board can be installed in the standard
slot.
Note 3) With 3-axis and 4-axis specifications, one expansion I/O board can be installed in the expansion slot.

* Pins 1, 2, 4, 6, 7 and 9 are not used (they need not be wired).
(3) Bus termination settings <Set using the termination switch (1) B)>
Among the units connected to a ProfiBus-DP network, the devices at both ends require termination to prevent
reflected waves from entering the bus line again.
This ProfiBus-DP module provides a termination switch that makes this termination easy.
The user need not install a separate terminal resistor. Never install an additional terminal resistor, as it
may have negative impact on bus communication or cause a communication error, etc.
<Bus termination settings>
. Termination switch ON Termination enabled
(If this switch is turned ON mistakenly when the module is connected in a position
other than the end of the network, bus communication may be negatively
impacted or a communication error, etc., may result.)
Termination switch OFF Termination disabled

(4) Node address settings <(Set by the address setting dials (1) C)>
The address of a ProfiBus-DP slave station is set using the left rotary switch “ADRS.H” and right rotary switch
“ADRS.L” of the station module, as shown in (1).
These rotary switches set the node address of the applicable controller.
Each of these two switches can be set to a desired value in a range of 0 to 9.
Set the switches by following the address assignment rule below:
Node address number = (Rotary switch “ADRS.H” x 10) + (Rotary switch “ADRS.L” x 1).
Example)

Note 1) When setting ProfiBus-DP station numbers, remember that the ProfiBus-DP master station is always
assigned station number 0. Accordingly, numbers 1 to 99 are available for slave stations.
Note 2) The node address of each slave station set above cannot be changed while the slave is
communicating with the master.

3.3 Setting X-SEL I/O Parameters (Assigning I/O Ports)
Set the X-SEL input/output ports to be used in ProfiBus-DP communication. The X-SEL supports many variations
of input/output port settings depending on how the applicable I/O parameters are set. (For details, refer to
“Operation Manual for X-SEL Controller.” All of the parameter numbers shown below indicate the I/O parameter
numbers of the X-SEL controller.)
3.3.1 Board Installation Positions (Slots) and I/O Parameters
I/O parameter Nos. 2 to 9
Enter the first I/O numbers among the I/Os assigned to the installed board.
Enter “-1” for port numbers not used.
Error monitor parameter Nos. 10 to 13
In normal conditions of use, set “1” for an expansion I/O board or SIO board.
For a ProfiBus-DP board, the setting is normally “2.”
Take note that the above setting can be changed in a range of “0” to “3” at the user’s responsibility.
If set to “0” --- The controller does not monitor any error occurring in the board installed in each slot.
If set to “1” --- The controller monitors all errors occurring in the board installed in each slot.
If set to “2” --- The controller monitors all errors occurring in the board installed in each slot, except for errors
relating to the 24-V board power supply.
If set to “3” --- The controller monitors only errors relating to the 24-V board power supply for the board installed
in each slot.
(1) J type (compact type)
(Note) The J type has no expansion slots I/O2 and 3. With this type of controller, therefore, parameter Nos. 6 to
9 are all set to “-1,” while Nos. 12 and 13 are set to “0.”
If the controller is of 1-axis or 2-axis specification, Nos. 4 and 5 are also set to “-1,” while No. 11 is set to
“0.”

3.3.3 Automatically Assigning X-SEL I/Os
Set the X-SEL input/output ports to be used in ProfiBus-DP communication. The X-SEL supports many
variations of input/output port settings depending on how the applicable I/O parameters are set. (For details,
refer to “Operation Manual for X-SEL Controller.”)
This manual covers the representative setting method as explained below.
Basically, the input/output port assignment type is set to “automatic assignment” using I/O parameter No. 1, and
input/output port addresses are set using Nos. 2 and 3. If an expansion I/O board is used, install the expansion
I/O board in each slot number in the specified order, and I/O ports will be assigned automatically. There is no
need to set the parameters for initial input/output port numbers for the expansion I/O board.
I/O parameter number Value Description
1 1 I/O numbers are assigned automatically. (Default setting)
2 0 Standard DIs are assigned from input port 0. (Default setting)
3 300 Standard DOs are assigned from output port 300. (Default setting)
14 n
The number of ProfiBus-DP input points is specified as a multiple of 16.
(16 ≤n ≤256)
15 m
The number of ProfiBus-DP output points is specified as a multiple of
16. (16 ≤n ≤256)
zWhen only a ProfiBus-DP board is installed in the standard I/O slot
(A ProfiBus-DP board is installed in the standard I/O slot and all expansion I/O slots are empty)
[1] Enter “1” in I/O parameter No. 1 to specify automatic assignment. (Default setting)
[2] Set I/O parameter No. 10, “Standard I/O error monitor” to “2.” (Default setting)
[3] Set I/O parameter Nos. 14 and 15, “Input/output ports used.” <A desired value can be set in a range of 0 to
256 (but the value must be a multiple of 16)>.
The settings are complete.
Example: If you want to assign ports automatically and use 128 inputs and 128 outputs when the maximum
numbers of inputs and outputs of the ProfiBus-DP slave station are 256 and 256, respectively, the
following setting should be used.

3.3.4 Using ProfiBus D-P and Expansion I/O Boards Together (Automatic Assignment)
A ProfiBus-DP board is installed in the standard I/O slot and an expansion I/O board is installed in expansion slot
I/O1.
[1] Enter “1” in I/O parameter No. 1 to specify automatic assignment. (Default setting)
[2] Set I/O parameter No. 10, “Standard I/O error monitor” to “2.” (Default setting)
[3] Set I/O parameter No. 11, “Standard I/O error monitor” to a value in a range of “1” to “3.”
[4] Set I/O parameter Nos. 14 and 15, “Input/output ports used.” <A desired value can be set in a range of 8 to
256 <but the value must be a multiple of 8)>.
The port numbers of the expansion board are assigned automatically in accordance with the numbers of
I/O ports of the ProfiBus-DP slave station set by I/O parameter Nos. 14 and 15.
Example: If one expansion I/O board (IA-103-X-32: 32 input points, 16 output points) is installed in expansion
slot I/O1 when the maximum numbers of inputs and outputs of the ProfiBus-DP slave station are 256
and 256, respectively, entering “256” in I/O parameter Nos. 14 and 15 will automatically set I/O
parameter Nos. 2 and 3, as shown below.
As a standard, input port numbers are assigned sequentially from No. 0. Since the ProfiBus-DP slave
station already occupies 0 to 255 (total 256 points), “256” is automatically assigned as the initial input port
number for expansion slot I/O1 based on fixed assignment.
On the other hand, output port numbers are assigned sequentially from No. 300 as a standard. Since the
ProfiBus-DP slave station already occupies 300 to 555 (total 256 points), “556” is automatically assigned
as the initial output port number expansion slot I/O1 based on fixed assignment.

For example, under automatic assignment the initial I/O port numbers (input number 0 ~ / output number 300 ~)
can only be set after the standard I/Os have been assigned. Under fixed assignment, on the other hand, the initial
I/O port numbers (input number 0 ~ / output number 300 ~) can be set freely for other boards installed in
expansion slots I/O1 to 3.
Example: One expansion I/O board (IA-103-X-32: 32 input points, 16 output points) is installed in expansion slot
I/O1 when the maximum numbers of inputs and outputs of the ProfiBus-DP slave station are 256 and
256, respectively. Here, the expansion I/O board is assigned for the initial I/O port numbers (input
number 0 ~ / output number 300 ~), and the ProfiBus-DP slave station installed in the standard I/O slot
is assigned for the subsequent numbers.
[1] Enter “1” in I/O parameter No. 1 to specify fixed assignment.
[2] Set I/O parameter 4, “Expansion I/O 1 fixed assignment: Initial input port number” to “0.”
[3] Set I/O parameter 5, “Expansion I/O 1 fixed assignment: Initial output port number” to “300.”
[4] Since the expansion I/O board IA-103-X-32 has 32 input point sand 16 output points, the last expansion input
port number becomes 31, while the last expansion output port number becomes 15.
[5] Set I/O parameter No. 2, “Standard I/O 1 fixed assignment: Initial input port number” to “32.”
[6] Set I/O parameter No. 3, “Standard I/O 1 fixed assignment: Initial output port number” to “16.”
[7] Set I/O parameter No. 10, “Standard I/O error monitor” to “2.”
[8] Set I/O parameter No. 11, “Standard I/O error monitor” to a value in a range of “1” to “3.”
[9] Since the maximum numbers of input and output points of the ProfiBus-DP slave station are 256 and 256,
respectively, enter “256” in I/O parameter Nos. 14 and 15, “Input/output ports used.”
The settings are complete.
