OPERATION MANUAL

Introduction

Introduction
The DeviceNet I/F option is an interface for controlling the F381A/F388A with PLC.
By using DeviceNet, the F381A/F388A can be controlled directly from the PLC, resulting in substantial
reductions in wiring.
The supported functions include reading of the present indicated value and status, commands such as D/Z,
waveform functions, reading and writing of set values, etc.
(* Since set values and waveforms are read and written by message functions, use a master that supports
them.)
Parameters such as a slave are to be set at the front of the F381A/F388A. Also, there is no need to set the
baud rate of the F381A/F388A since it automatically follows the master.
In this document, outputs refer to signals from the master to the slave (F381A/F388A), and inputs refer to
signals from the slave (F381A/F388A) to the master.
Remote I/O communications regularly exchange data between the master and slave.
Communications are carried out at the timing of occurrence of events by message
functions.

5. About remote I/O
The F381A/F388A can send status and indicated values through DeviceNet with a delay of approx.
100msec compared with external I/O signals of the main body (in simple remote I/O
communications).
Furthermore, the delay time is affected by the cycle time of the communications, scan time of the
PLC, etc.
Therefore, for cases where the speed is severe, use the control connector of the main body, and not
via communications.
In a line manner, since input signals such as the D/Z command also cause a delayed time when used
via communications, use the control connector for cases requiring speed.
Input signals (F381A/F388A →Master) are output to communications and the control connector in
parallel irrespective of settings of the main body.
For output signals. (Master →F381A/F388A), communications or the control connector can be
selected on a block-by-block basis.

6-2.About input data
Load ・displacement
The data of the currently indicated value is stored. If the indicated value is held, the held value is
displayed.
* If the X-axis of the waveform is time, the displacement value becomes 0.
Range Load：-9999～9999、Displacement：-9999～320000
・Hold Result (Load/DPM)
Use it for acquiring judgment results by using the hold function. If displacement needs to be
judged, also use DPM. It is not used if the hold function is not used. Hold results are output.
LO：Turns ON when the hold result falls below the LO limit, and the output is held.
HI：Turns ON when the hold result exceeds the HI limit, and the output is held.
OK：Turns ON when judgment is made during measurement and the LO and HI outputs are
not ON after completion of the measurement. OK will not turn ON if no hold is made
for the specified Number of Use Sections.
* Please fetch the inputs in synchronization with the Complete of n+2.
・Overload
Use Overload to stop the equipment in case of emergency due to the excess load applied to the
sensor. Irrespective of the measurement status, it turns ON at the Overload. It turns OFF, when
the Overload is released.
・Complete
Use it for recognizing the completion of measurement. It turns ON when the measurement is
completed.
・Wave Result
Use it for acquiring judgment results by using the waveform comparison function. It is not used
if the waveform comparison function is not used. Waveform comparison results are output.
LO：Turns ON when the waveform comparison result falls below the LO limit, and the
output is held.
HI：Turns ON when the waveform comparison result exceeds the HI limit, and the output is
held.
OK：Turns ON when the Compare Area is passed through during measurement and the LO
and HI outputs are not ON after completion of the measurement. OK will not turn ON if
the measurement does not reach the Compare Area or the Reference Point of Relative
Comparison when Relative Comparison is made.
* Please fetch the inputs in synchronization with the Complete of n+2.
・Load OK
Use it for recognizing the abnormality of the load sensor. It is normally ON. It turns OFF with a
sensor error (sensor ±error), or display error (±OVER), or when load exceeds the Overload or
when the Load-Digital-Zeroed value exceeds the Digital Zero Limit. It also turns OFF when the
Start, Reset, or Load Digital Zero signal is ON.
・DPM OK
Use it if the X-axis of the waveform represents displacement. It is not used when the X-axis of
the waveform represents time. It turns OFF when measuring points of 10 data or more are
skipped because the pacing of displacement is too fast. It also turns OFF when the Start, Reset,
or DPM Positioning signal is ON.
