TROUBLESHOOTING
1 OVERVIEW
This User's Manual describes the specifications, handling and programming methods for
the Q66DA-G type channel isolated digital-analog converter module (hereinafter referred
to as the Q66DA-G) which are used in conjunction with MELSEC-Q series CPU module
(hereinafter referred to as the programmable controller CPU).
1.1 Features
(1) Multi-channel analog input is available.
By using a single Q66DA-G, analog voltage or current outputs of 6 points (6 channels)
are available.
(2) Channel isolated
The module is isolated between the channels and between the external supply power
and channels.
(3) High accuracy
The reference accuracy*1is as high as +0.1% and the temperature coefficient*2is as
high as -80ppm/°C.
*1: Accuracy attained at the ambient temperature when offset/gain setting has been made
*2: Accuracy per temperature change of 1°C
Example) Accuracy when the ambient temperature varies from 25°C to 30°C
0.1% (reference accuracy) + 0.008%/°C (temperature coefficient) 5°C
(temperature variation difference) = 0.14%
(4) Output range switching
The output range*1switching can be set easily from GX Developer.
*1: The output range indicates the offset/gain setting type. Besides the generally often used output
ranges available as defaults, the user can make offset/gain settings and use the values. (Refer to
Section 4.5)
(4) Analog output HOLD/CLEAR function
This function is used to set whether the analog output value will be held or cleared
when the CPU module is in a STOP status or when a stop error occurs. (Refer to
Section 3.2.1)
(5) Output monitor function
The analog output value output by D/A conversion is reconverted into a digital value
within the Q66DA-G and the result is stored into the buffer memory as an output
monitor value.
(6) Changing the resolution mode
The resolution mode can be changed according to the application, and digital value
resolution settings of 1/4000, 1/12000 or 1/16000 can be selected. (Refer to Section
4.5)

1- 2 1.1 Features
1OVERVIEW
(7) Warning output function
A warning is output if a digital input value falls outside the setting range. (Refer to
Section 3.2.4.)
(8) Rate control function
The increase and decrease in analog output values per 6ms *1 can be limited,
preventing rapid change of the values. (Refer to Section 3.2.4.)
*1 6ms is the conversion cycle per channel.
(9) Scaling function
The digital input value range can be changed to any given range between –32000 and
32000, and digital values within the range are converted to analog values. (Refer to
Section 3.2.5.)
(10)Online module change
The module can be changed without the system being stopped.
Further, the dedicated instruction (G(P). OGLOAD, G(P). OGSTOR), write to the
buffer memory, or turning ON the Y signal enables "inheritance of offset/gain settings
to the new Q66DA-G replacing the old one changed online" and "transfer of offset/
gain settings to the other Q66DA-G mounted on the other slot". (These apply to the
modules of the same model.) (Refer to Chapter 7.)
(11)Offset/gain setting
GX Configurator-DA, dedicated instruction (G(P). OFFGAN) or mode switching
setting allows a shift to the offset/gain setting mode easily. (Refer to Section 4.6.)
(12)Easy settings using the utility package
A utility package is sold separately (GX Configurator-DA).
The utility package is not a required item, however, it is useful for on-screen setting of
the intelligent function module parameters (initial setting/auto refresh setting). In
addition, FB*1 can be generated automatically from the intelligent function module
parameters that have been set up and used in a sequence program. (Refer to
Chapter 5.)
*1: FB is the function for making a circuit block used in a sequence program repeatedly a part (FB) to
use it in the sequence program.
This function can improve the efficiency of program development and minimize program bugs to
improve program qualities.
For the details of FB, refer to "GX Developer Version 8 Operating Manual (Function Block)."
