Some of the things xLogic can do for you?

The xLogic Micro PLC provides solutions for commercial, industrial, building and
domestic applications such as lighting, pumping, ventilation, shutter operations or
in switching cabinets. The application field is widespread and these are just a few
to mention.
Using the RS485 bus and Ethernet connectivity allows the user to realize various extensive (real-time)
monitoring and control applications.
Special versions without operator panel and display unit are available for series production applications
in small machine, installation and cabinet building environments to further slash cost.

xLogic devices:

xLogic Basic is available in two voltage classes:

*Classes 1:DC12-24V: i.e.: PR-6DC Series, PR-12DC series, PR-18 series, PR-24DC series.

*Classes2: AC110-240V: i.e.: PR-6AC Series, PR-12AC series, PR-18AC series , PR-24AC series.

In the versions:

* With Display: with “-HMI” model, such as PR-12DC-DA-R-HMI

* Without Display: PR-6 series and with “-CAP” model, such as PR-12DC-DA-R-CAP. Only PR-12 has -CAP

version. PR-18,PR-24 all have display in default.

Expansion modules:

12
PR-E (applied to PR-18/PR-24 CPU)

* xLogic digital modules are available for operation with 12…24V DC, and 110.. .240 V AC, and are
equipped with eight inputs and eight outputs.
* xLogic analog modules are available for operation with 12…24 V DC and are equipped with six digital
and 4 analog inputs.

Communication cable and module:

 xLogic:RS232 communication cable (Model:ELC-RS232)

It is kind of universal cable with photoelectricity isolation which can be directly connected to standard
9-pin port of PC, also kind of interface module which can enable user’s program to be downloaded into
xLogic CPU through xLogicsoft for running. It also is the connection cable between CPU and third party
device with the RS232 port(just like HMI) in modbus communication system.

 xLogic: USB communication cable (Model: ELC-USB).

It is kind of communication cable with photoelectricity isolation through which PC with USB port only can
be connected to xLogic main module, moreover, it has same features as ELC-RS232 module, so it is
quite convenient for user whose computer has no standard serial port.

 xLogic: PRO-RS485 cable (Model: PRO-RS485).

It is kind of converter cable with photoelectricity isolation to make the program port serves as RS485
port.

 xLogic: RS485 module(Model:PR-RS485)

isolated 485 converter,used to bring out the terminals of RS485 port built-in PR-18,PR-24 series CPU for

connection with third party devices.

Communication / Network

xLogic offers different ways to communicate within the system.

RS485 port

The RS485 port is used for communication between the CPU and various devices or equipments which
have the standard RS485 port. Communicate using Modbus RTU/ASCII protocol.

13
Note:PR-RS485 module is required to connect the CPU to RS485 BUS.

RS232 or USB port (ELC-ES232/ ELC-USB needed)

If there is no network required and only one main module with some expansion modules is needed for the
application, the down- and upload of the project to and from the main module happens over the standard
RS232 or USB port. It allows system maintenance like monitoring too.

Note:PR-E-RS485 module is required to connect the CPU to RS485 BUS.


Ethernet network

If the application requires a system where more than one main module is needed and these main
modules have to communicate, each Ethernet CPU will be connected directly to the Ethernet by the
built-in LAN port. The project down- and upload to and from the main modules and the communication
between the CPU happens over the Ethernet network. Furthermore the our free of charge SCADA can be
also established connection with Ethernet CPU

Note

14
xLogic CPU may be equipped with expansion modules of the different voltage class, but expansion
module must be supplied the correct power corresponding to its type.
Each xLogic CPU provides the following connections for the creation of the circuit program, regardless of
the number of connected blocks:

 Digital inputs I1 to I4(PR-6), I1 to I8(PR-12), I1 to IC(ELC-18),I1 to IE(PR-24). I11-I18(Expansion


with address 1)...I161--I168(Expansion with address 16)
 Analog inputs I1 to I6(PR-18/PR-24), I1 to I4(PR-12), I11 to I14(PR-E expansion with address
1),....AI161 to AI164(PR-E expansion with address 16)
 Digital outputs Q1 to Q6(PR-18), Q1 to Q4(PR-12),Q1 to QA(PR-24);Q11 to Q18((PR-E expansion
with address 1), Q81 to Q88(PR-E expansion with address 16)
 Digital flag blocks F1-F32(PR-6,PR-12-E), F1-F128(PR-12/PR-18/PR-24) ;
 -F8 : Startup flag
 -F64: Backlight control bit(to control the backlight of LCD and backlight of ELC-43TS)
 -F63: Buzzer of ELC-43TS control bit
 Analog flag blocks AF1 to AF256(PR-12/PR-18/PR-24);AF1-AF32(PR-6/PR-12-E)
 Shift register bits S1 to S8

W a r n i n g

Always switch off power before you “remove” and “insert” an expansion module.

3.1 DIN rail mounting

Mounting

How to mount a xLogic module and an expansion module onto a DIN rail:
1. Hook the xLogic Basic module onto the rail.
2. Push down the lower end to snap it on. The mounting interlock at the rear must engage.
3. Hook the xLogic expansion module onto the rail
4. Slide the module towards the left until it touches the xLogic CPU.
5. Push down the lower end to snap it on. The mounting interlock at the rear must engage.
6. Remove the plastic cover in the expansion port of CPU and expansion module.
7. Plus the connector on the flat cable to CPU

Repeat the expansion module steps to mount further expansion modules.

23
Note:If you need install the expansion and CPU on different rows, you need order the longer
flat connection which is used to connected with CPU, the longest distance can
be 200meters between the CPU and the end expansion module.

Removal
To remove xLogic:
....... if you have installed only one xLogic Basic:
1. Insert a screwdriver into the eyelet at the bottom of the slide interlock and move the
latch downward.
2. Swing the xLogic Basic off the DIN rail.

....... if you have connected at least one expansion module to xLogic Basic:
1. Remove the connector on the flat cable
2. Slide the expansion module off towards the right.
3. Insert a screwdriver into the eyelet at the bottom of the slide interlock and lever it
downward.
4. Swing the expansion module off the profile rail.
Repeat steps 1 to 4 for all other expansion modules.

3.2 Wall-mounting

For wall-mounting, first slide the mounting slides on the rear side of the devices towards the outside. You
can now wall-mount xLogic by means of two mounting slides and two ØM4 screws (tightening torque 0.8
to 1.2 Nm).

3.3 wiring xLogic

Wire the xLogic using a screwdriver with a 3-mm blade.

You do not need wire ferrules for the terminals. You can use conductors with
cross-sections of up to the following thicknesses:

 1 x 2.5 mm2

 2 x 1.5 mm2 for each second terminal chamber

 Tightening torque: 0.4.. .0.5 N/m or 3. ..4 lbs/in

Note

Always cover the terminals after you have completed the in s t a l l a t i o n . To pr o t e c t


xL o g i c a d e q u a t e l y fr o m impermissible contact to live parts, local standards must
be complied with.

3.4.1 Connecting the power supply

The PR-6AC, PR-12AC,PR-18AC, PR-24AC versions of xLogic are suitable for


operation with rated voltages of 110 V AC and 240 V AC. The PR-6DC,
PR-12DC,PR-18DC, PR-24DC versions can be operated with a 12 or 24 VDC power
supply.

Note

A power failure may cause an additional edge triggering signal.

Data of the last uninterrupted cycle are stored in xLogic

To connect xLogic to the power supply:

Input current >79 VAC
Signal status 1 >10VDC
Typical 0.06 Typical 0.3mA
Input current 0.24mA
Analogue input NO AI1-AI4(0-10V DC)(PR-6,PR-12)

Note:
1. For PR-6DC-DA-R, PR-12DC-DA , PR-18DC-DA ,PR-24DC-DA Series and
versions. That can receive analog input. They can be set to analog input or
digital input as either may be used in the program. They will be recognized
as analog inputs when the input terminal is connected with an analog
function block, and they will be recognized as switching inputs when the
input terminal is not connected with an analog function block.

2. The analog inputs require DC 0V ~ +10V voltage signals. These are 2.

divided equally in 0.01V increments. In programming, all the block


parameters related to the analog inputs are based on the minimum
increment of 0.01V.

3. They can be recognized as switching input when the input voltage is more
than 10.0V and cannot be recognized as an analog input.

4. For the switching input off, when the switch status changes from 0 to 1,
the time of Status 1 must be greater than 50ms, and when the switch status
changes from 1 to 0, the time of Status 0 also must be greater than 50ms.

Connecting xLogic is shown as in the following figures:

* DC type digital inputs

29
* AC type digital inputs

* Analog Inputs (DC 0…10V)

*Analog inputs current Inputs (0…20mA)

The above figure shows how to make a four-wire current measurement.

PR-E-PT100

It can be connected with one two-wire or three-wire resistance-type thermocouple.


When two-wire technology applied, the terminals “M1+ and IC1” (this rule also shall be applied to” M2+
and IC2”, “M3+ and IC3” ) would be short connected. Such connection can not compensate
error/tolerance caused by the resistance in measurement loop. The measurement error of 1 Ω impedance
of power cord is proportional to +2.5 °C
The three-wire technology can inhibit the influence of measurement results caused by cable length
(ohmic resistance).

3.4.3 Connecting xLogic Outputs

1. Requirement for the relay output

Various loads such as lamp, fluorescent tube, motor, contact, etc., can be connected to the outputs of
xLogic. The maximum ON output current that can be supplied by xLogic is 10A for the resistance load and
3A for the inductive load. The connection is in accordance with the following figure:

2. Requirement for the electronic transistor output:

The load connected to xLogic must have the following characteristics:


* The maximum switch current cannot exceed 0.3A.
* When the switch is ON (Q=1), the maximum current is 0.3A.

Notes (PNP):

* The load connecting voltage must be ≤60VDC and it must be DC.


* The “+” terminal of the output wiring must be connected with the DC positive
voltage, and it must be connected with the “L+” terminal of the xLogic power ,a
load must be connected with the “-” terminal of the DC negative voltage.

4.3.4 How to set address of CPU and expansion module

A. Set CPU address


If there are more than one CPU in a certain communication network,well then the address of CPU must
be set differently each other. You can change the address of CPU via xLogicsoft, or via the panel key if the
CPU with LCD panel. The address range is from 1 to 247 for ELC and PR series CPU

Confirm with "OK"

Change the address with arrow keys, and confirm with "Ok".

The CPU address also can be set by xlogicsoft, if the CPU without HMI, you only can set the expansion
address with such method.
You can set the CPU address by the menu Tools-> transfer-> set PLC’s address in xlogicsoft.

Part 2 :Set address of ELC-E extensions.(ELC-E-16DC-DA-R etc..)

50
1. Plastic slice
Step 1: Using a screwdriver , take the plastic slice down and we’ll find a dial switch.
2: Dial the switch as the below instructions to set the address what you need.
Up to 8 extensions (includes IO ,AQ,AI,PT100 modules) can be connected with the CPU .
The default address of ELC-E extensions is 1 and the dial switch as below:
Address 1:

means the switch position

Address 2:

Address 3:

Address 4:

Address 5:

Address 6:

51
Address 7:

Address 8:

Notes:
1.The address setup of the extension module must be before powering on. Modification when powering
on will be ineffective.
2.Freely connection with CPU and expansion , do not care the power supply type of CPU and
extensions ,that means the AC type module also can be connected with the DC type module or AC type
expansion module also can be connected with DC type CPU.
3.If the communication is established between CPU and extensions , the indicator on the top of the
extensions’ house will turn to RUN(green color)(If the LED is red, that means the CPU cannot get
communication with it).
4.If more than one expansion module connect to CPU at the same time ,the address of expansion module
must be different each other, otherwise the system(CPU+expansions) would run abnormal, but if the
expansion already has each own separately address, then the installation sequence of the expansion is
not important anymore, for example you can let the expansion with address 8 as the first one with CPU.

Chapter 5 Configuring & Programming software

Users who are familiar with the logic boxes of Boolean algebra can use the xLogicsoft. In fact xLogicsoft
adapts the function block programming way. xLogicsoft is available as a programming package for the
PC. This mode provides many features, for example:

 A graphic interface for offline creation of your circuit program by means of


Function Block Diagram (function chart)

 Simulation of your circuit program on the PC

 Generating and printing of an overview chart for the circuit program

 Saving a backup of the circuit program on the hard drive or other media

 Rievtech configuration of blocks

 Transferring the circuit program

– from the xLogic to the PC and

– from the PC to xLogic

Online test: Display of status changes and process variables of xLogic in RUN mode:

– Status of a digital I/O, shift register bits and cursor keys

– The values of all analog I/Os

– The results of all blocks

– The current values (including the times) of selected blocks


– Change the output(the input pin of the output cannot be connected) status
via xLogicsoft

 Starting and stopping circuit program execution via the PC (RUN, STOP).

The xLogic alternative

As you can see, xLogicsoft represents an alternative to conventional engineering


methods:

1. You start by developing the circuit program on your desktop.


2. You simulate the circuit program on your computer and verify its functions, before
you actually implement it in your system.

3. You can add comments to the circuit program and create hard-copies.
4. You save a copy of your circuit program to the file system on your PC, to make it
directly available for any modifications.

5. It takes only a few key actions to download the circuit program to xLogic.
6. Under Simulate mode in xLogicsoft, you can study how to program via the panel
58
key.

5.1 xLogic Functions

ELC series adapts programming methods by means of function blocks. A total of 9 general function blocks,
37 special function blocks, and 11 input & output function blocks are configured. And each block can
achieve a specific control function independently, e.g. TOND, TOFD, SBPL, TBPL, SCHD, etc. As several
blocks are linked up in a specific way, relatively complicated control functions can be performed.
Programming with function blocks is simpler and better appreciated than the conventional PLC
instruction programming.

The following types of operator for xLogic function blocks are available for options:

5.2 General Input & Output functions

5.2.1 Inputs

Input blocks represent the input terminals of xLogic. Up to 4 digital inputs(ELC-6 CPU),8(PR-12
CPU) , 76 inputs(PR-18 ) 78 inputs(ELC-22) and 80 inputs(ELC-26) are available to you.

In your block configuration, you can assign an input block a new input terminal, if this terminal
is not already used in the circuit program.

Note:
I11 means the I1 input of the expansion with address 1.
I85 means the I5 input of the expansion with address 8.

59
5.2.2 Cursor keys

Up to four cursor keys are available to you. Cursor keys are programmed for the circuit program in the
same ways as other inputs. Cursor keys can save switches and inputs, and allow operator control of the
circuit program.

Switch the screen to current page(above shows) by pressing the Left or Right key, and press
ESC key and arrow keys at the same time, then the corresponding cursor keys will turn on and
give off a high trigger!

5.2.3 Outputs

Output blocks represent the output terminals of xLogic. You can use up to 2 outputs(ELC-6), 4
outputs(PR-12),70 outputs(PR-18), 72 outputs(PR-22),74 outputs(PR-26). In your block configuration,
you can assign an output block a new terminal, provided this terminal is not already used in your circuit
program.
The output always carries the signal of the previous program cycle. This value does not change within the
current program cycle.

Note:
Q11 means the Q1 output of the expansion with address 1.
Q85 means the Q5 output of the expansion with address 8.

60
5.2.4 Permanent logical levels HI and LO

Set the block input to logical hi (hi = high) to set it permanently to logical '1' or 'H' state.

Set the block input to logical lo (lo = low) to set it permanently to logical '0' or 'L' state.

5.2.5 Panel Key

It is the symbol of the Function key on the panel (F1—F4). If one of the function keys is pressed down,
the status of the corresponding symbol in the program shall turn from 0 to 1. And it shall give off one high
trigger.

Notes: 1.Only one function key is allowed to be pressed down at any one time, if you press down two or
more at the same time, xLogic does not process.
2. If the arrow keys(UP, DOWN, LEFT and RIGHT), Esc and OK had been applied to the program,
then they would be invalid for menu operation (e.g. manual programming,parameters modification and
view alarming message etc).

61
5.2.6 Shift register bits

xLogic provides the shift register bits S1 to S8, which are assigned the read-only attribute in the circuit
program. The content of shift register bits can only be modified by means of the Shift register special
function

5.2.7 Analog inputs

You can use up to 36 analog inputs. In your block configuration, you can assign a new input terminal to
an input block, provided this terminal is not already used in the circuit program.

For help on analog block parameter, refer to Information on analog value processing.

Note:
AI11 means the AI1 input of the expansion with address 1.
AI82 means the AI2 input of the expansion with address 8.

Based on different analog input signals, you need select different sensor type in the analog blocks, you
need use an analog amplifier with the AI input, and select the corresponding sensor type for DC0..10V,
0/4..20mA or PT100 input.

62
5.2.8 F (digital flag)

Flags are used when xLogic works in a communication system. F is digital flag which is used to save
/transfer signal 1 or 0(data format is Bit) and AF is analog flag which is used to save /transfer analog
values (data format is Signed short) between the master and slave devices. Up to 32(ELC-6),
128(PR-12/ELC-22/ELC-26) can be used when programming. In your block configuration, you can assign
a new number to the flag, provided this flag number does not already exist in your circuit program.
The output always carries the signal of the previous program cycle. This value does not change if the
communication has failed.
Startup flag: F8
The F8 flag is set in the first cycle of the user program and can thus be used in your circuit program as
a startup flag. It is reset after the first program execution cycle.
In the subsequent cycles, the F8 flag reacts in the same way as the F1 to F64 flags.
Backlight flags: F64
The F64 flag controls the backlight of the xLogic display or the ELC-43T backlight.
You can use the outputs of timers, message texts, or other function blocks to activate the backlight flags.
To enable multiple conditions to control the backlight of the devices, you can use multiple function blocks
in parallel or in sequence.
Buzzer of ELC-43TS control flag:F63

Notes: 1.The address of “ F“ can be found in the modbus communication protocol file . the F block figure
must have the input pin in the xLogic showing.
1. Keep the input pin of F NULL(do not connect with other blocks) ,if you want to use the write property.

63
5.2.9 AF (Analog flag)

Flags are used when xLogic works in a communication system. AF is analog flag which is used to save
/transfer analog values (data format is Signed short) between the master and slave devices. Up to
32(ELC-6) and 256(PR-12/ELC-22/ELC-26) for xLogic CPU can be used when programming. In your
block configuration, you can assign a new number to the analog flag, provided this flag number does not
already exist in your circuit program.
The output always carries the signal of the previous program cycle. This value does not change if the
communication were failed.
Notes: 1.The address of “AF“ can be found in the modbus communication protocol file .
2.Keep the input pin of AF NULL(do not connect with other blocks) ,if you want to use the write
property.

You can set a start value for the AF1--AF64(PR-12/ELC-22/ELC-26), and the value does not lost if the
power was failure, so you can use such AF in your program as a number input from the touch screen or
the panel key of the CPU.
Notes: 1.AF65--AF256 does not support such function(start value settings). and the value of
AF65--AF256 will be lost if the power is failure.
2. If you enable the "start value option" of AF, then you are not allowed to connect any other
function to the input leg of the AF.
3. If you connect the input leg of AF block to other function blocks, the "start value" will not be
available anymore.

5.3 Basic functions list – GF

Basic functions represent simple logical elements of Boolean algebra.


You can invert the inputs of individual basic functions , i.e. the circuit program inverts a logical “1” at a
relevant input to a logical “0”; if “0” is set at the input, the program sets a logical “1”.
The GF list contains the basic function blocks you can use for your circuit program. The following basic
functions are available:

Logic table of the NOT function:

Input 1 Output

5.3.9 Boolean Function

The BOOLEAN function gives the value of the output according to the combination of inputs.
The function has four inputs, and therefore 16 combinations. These combinations can be found in a truth
table; for each of these, the output value can be adjusted. The number of configurable combinations
depends on the number of inputs connected to the function.
Non-connected inputs are set to 0.
The following diagram shows an example of part of the Boolean function truth table:

71
Parameters

Having connected at least one input, you can configure the value of the output in the truth table, in the
Parameters window.
The output values can be 0 for the Inactive state, and 1 for the Active state(Double click to change the
0 or 1 ).
By selecting the Output ON if result is TRUE option, the output takes the value configured in the truth
table.
By selecting the Output OFF if result is TRUE option, the output takes the inverse value of the value
configured in the truth table.

5.4 Basics on special functions

Because of their different input designation, you can see right away that there is a difference between the
special functions and basic functions. SFs contain timer functions, retentive functions and various
parameter assignment options, which allow you to adapt the circuit program to suit your own
requirements.
This section provides you with a brief overview of input designations and with some particular
background information on SFs. The SFs in particular are described in Chapter7.5

72
5.4.1 Designation of the inputs

Logical inputs
Here, you will find the description of the connectors you can use to create a logical link to other blocks
or to the inputs of the xLogic unit.
S (Set):
A signal at input S sets the output to logical “1”.
R (Reset):
The reset input R takes priority over all other inputs and resets the outputs.
Trg (Trigger):
This input is used to trigger the start of a function.
Cnt (Count):
This input is used for counting pulses.
Fre (Frequency):
Frequency signals to be evaluated are applied to this input.
Dir (Direction):
This input determines the direction of count.
En (Enable):
This input enables a block function. When this input is “0”, other signals to the block will be ignored.
Inv (Invert):
A signal at this input inverts the output signal of the block.
Ral (Reset all):
All internal values are reset.

Parameter inputs
At some of the inputs you do not apply any signals. You configure the relevant block values instead.
Examples:

Par (Parameter):

This input will not be connected. Here, you set the relevant block parameters (times, on/off thresholds
etc.).

No (Cam):

This input will not be connected. Here, you configure the time patterns.

P (Priority):

This is an open input. Here, you define priorities and specify whether a message is to be acknowledged
in RUN.

73
5.4.2 Time response

Parameter T
In some of the SFs it is possible to configure a time value T. When you preset this time, note that your
input values are based on the time base set:

Time base __ : __

s (seconds) seconds : /100 seconds


1

m (minutes) minutes : seconds

h (hours) hours : minutes

Accuracy of T
Because of slight tolerances in the characteristics of electronic components, the set time T may deviate. The
xLogic has a maximum tolerance of ± 0.02 %.
When 0.02 % of the time T is smaller than 0.02 seconds, the maximum deviation is 0.02 seconds.
Example: The maximum tolerance per hour (3600 seconds) is ±0.02%, which is proportional to ± 0.72
seconds. The maximum tolerance per minute (60 seconds) is ± 0.02 seconds.
Accuracy of the timer (weekly/yearly timer)
The maximum timing in accuracy is ± 5 s/day.

5.4.3 Backup of the real-time clock

Because the internal real-time clock of an xLogic is backed up, it continues operation after a power
failure. The ambient temperature influences the backup time. At an ambient temperature of 25°C, the
typical backup time of xLogic is 100 hours.

6.4.4 Retentivity

The switching states and counter values of SFs can be set retentive. This means that current data is retained
after a power failure, and that the block resumes operation at the break point. The timer is not reset,
but resumes operation until the time-to-go has expired, for example, to enable this response, however,

74
the relevant functions must be set retentive.
R: The data is retained.
/: Current data is not retained (default). See the section in topic "Second circuit program
" on enabling and disabling retentivity.
SFs hours counter, weekly timer, yearly timer and PI controller are always retentive.

5.4.5 Parameter protection

In the parameter protection settings, you can determine whether or not the parameters can be displayed
and edited in xLogic parameter assignment mode. Two options are available:
+: The parameter attribute permits read/write access in parameter assignment mode(default).
-: The parameter settings are read–/write–protected in parameter assignment mode, and can be
edited only in programming mode. See the parameter protection mode example in the "Second circuit
program".

5.4.6 Calculating the gain and offset of analog values

A sensor is connected to the analog input and converts a process variable into an electrical signal. This
value of signal lies within the typical range of this sensor. xLogic always converts the electrical signals at
the analog input into digital values from 0 to 1000. A voltage of 0 to 10 V (or current signal 0/4…20mA)
at input AI is transformed internally into range of values from 0 to 1000. An input voltage exceeding 10
V is shown as internal value 1000.
Because you cannot always process the range of values from 0 to 1000 as predetermined by xLogic, you
can multiply the digital values by a gain factor and then shift the zero of the range of values (offset). This
allows you to output an analog value to the xLogic display, which is proportional to the actual process
variable.

Parameter Minimum Maximum

Input voltage (in V) 0 ≥ 10


Input current(in mA) 0/4 ≥20

Internal value 0 1000

Gain –10.00 +10.00

Offset –10000 +10000

Mathematical rule
Actual value Ax =
(internal value at input Ax∙gain) + offset

Gain and offset calculation

75
The gain and offset is calculated based on the relevant high
and low values of the function.

Example 1:

The available thermocouples have the following technical


data: –30 to +70℃, 0 to 10 V DC (i.e. 0 to 1000 in xLogic).
Actual value = (internal value ∙gain) + offset, thus
–30 = (0 ∙A) + B, i.e. offset B = –30
+70 = (1000 ∙A) –30, i.e. gain A = 0.1

Example 2:
A pressure sensor converts a pressure of 1000 mbar into a voltage of 0 V, and a pressure of 5000 mbar into
a voltage of 10 V.
Actual value = (internal value. gain) + offset, thus
= (0·A) + B, i.e. offset B = 1000
=(1000 ∙A) +1000, i.e. gain A = 4

5.5 Special functions list – SF

When you create your circuit program in xLogicsoft, you find the special function blocks in the SF list.
You can invert the inputs of SFs individually, i.e. the circuit program converts a logical “1” at the input into
a logical “0”; a logical “0” it converts into a logical “1”. The table also specifies whether the relevant function can
be set retentive (Rem). The following SFs are available:

5.5.1 On-delay

Short description
The output is not switched on until a configured delay time has expired.

Connection Description

Trg input The on delay time is triggered via the Trg (Trigger) input

Parameter T represents the on delay time after which the output is


switched on (output signal transition 0 to 1).
Retentivity on = the status is retentive in memory.

Output Q Q switches on after a specified time T has expired, provided Trg


is still set.

Parameter T
The time for parameter T can also be preset based on the actual value of another, already-configured
function. You can use the actual values of the following functions:
Analog comparator: Ax - Ay
Analog trigger: Ax
Analog amplifier: Ax
Analog multiplexer: AQ
Analog ramp: AQ
Analog math: AQ
PI controller:AQ
Data latching relay: AQ
Up/Down counter: Cnt

You select the required function via the block number. Time-base can be adjusted.
The value of "T" can be set/modified in parameter mode. For information about how to modify,refer
to chapter 5.2.2 please.
For information on the validity and accuracy of the time base, refer to the xLogic time-base list as follows:

Valid ranges of the time base, if T = Actual value of an already-programmed


function

Timing diagram

Description of the function


The time Ta (the current time in xLogic) is triggered with the 0 to 1 transition at input Trg.
If the status at input Trg stays 1 at least for the duration of the configured time T, the output is set to 1
when this time has expired (the on signal of the output follows the on signal of the input with delay).
The time is reset if the status at input Trg changes to 0 again before the time T has expired.
The output is reset to 0 when input Trg is 0.

5.5.2 Off-delay

Short description
The output with off delay is not reset until a defined time has expired.

82
Connection Description

Input Trg Start the off delay time with a negative edge (1 to 0
transition) at input Trg (Trigger)

Input R Reset the off delay time and set the output to 0 via the R
(Reset) input.
Reset has priority over Trg

Parameter T: The output is switched off on expiration of the delay


time T (output signal transition 1 to 0).
Retentivity on = the status is retentive in memory.

Output Q Q is switched on for the duration of the time T after a


trigger at input Trg.

Parameter
The time set in parameter T can be supplied by the value of another already-programmed function:
Analog comparator: Ax - Ay
Analog trigger: Ax
Analog amplifier: Ax
Analog multiplexer: AQ
Analog ramp: AQ
Analog math: AQ
PI controller:AQ
Data latching relay: AQ
Up/Down counter: Cnt

The value of "T"can be set/modified in parameter mode. For information about how to modify, refer to
chapter 5.2.2 please.
Select the required function by the block number. The time base is configurable. For
information on valid time base ranges and parameter preset, refer to chapter 4.4.1 the On-delay topic.

Output Q is set to 1 momentarily with a 0 to 1 transition at input Trg.
At the 1 to 0 transition at input Trg, xLogic retriggers the current time T, and the output remains set. The
output Q is reset to 0 when Ta reaches the value specified in T (Ta=T) (off delay).
A one-shot at input Trg retriggers the time Ta.
You can reset the time Ta and the output via the input R (Reset) before the time Ta has expired.
If retentivity is not set, output Q and the expired time are reset after a power failure.

5.5.11 Weekly timer

Caution
Your xLogic must be equipped with an internal real-time clock if you are going to use this SFB.

Short description

The output is controlled by means of a configurable on/off date. The function supports any combination
of weekdays.

Connection Description

Parameter At the No1, No2, No3 (cam)

95
parameters you set the on and
off triggers for each cam of the
weekly timer. The parameter
units are the days and the
time-of-day.

Output Q Q is set when the configured


cam is actuated.

Parameter
You can configure a time hysteresis for each individual cam in parameter mode. For information about
how to modify, refer to chapter 4.2.2 please.
Timing diagram (three practical examples)

No1: Daily: 06:30 h to 08:00 h


No2: Tuesday: 03:10 h to 04:15 h
No3: Saturday and Sunday: 16:30 h to 23:10 h

Description of the function

Each weekly timer is equipped with three cams. You can configure a time hysteresis for each individual
cam. At the cams you set the on and off hysteresis. The weekly timer sets the output at a certain time,
provided it is not already set.
The output is reset at a certain time, provided it is not already reset. A conflict is generated in the weekly
timer when the set on time and the set off time at another cam are identical. In this case, cam 3 takes
priority over cam 2, while cam 2 takes priority over cam 1.
The switching status of the weekly timer is determined by the status at the No1, No2 and No3 cams.

Days of the week


The prefix "D=" (Day) has the following meaning:
● M: Monday
● T: Tuesday
● W: Wednesday
● T: Thursday
● F: Friday

96
On-/Off-times
Any time between 00:00 h and 23:59 h is possible. You can also configure the on time to be a
pulse signal. The timer block will be activated at the specified time for one cycle and then the
output is reset.
- -:- - means: No on-/off-times set.

Setting the weekly timer


To set the on-/off-times:
1. Move the cursor to one of the Cam parameters of the timer (e.g. No1).
2. Press OK. xLogic opens the Cam parameter assignment screen form. The cursor is
positioned on the day of the week.

3. Press and to select one or several days of the week.


4. Press to move the cursor to the first position of the on-time.
5. Set the on-time.

Modify the value at the respective position, using the keys and . Move to the cursor to
the various positions, using the keys and . At the first position, you can only select the
value - -:- -
(- -:- - means: No on-/off-times set).

6. Press to move the cursor to the first position of the off-time.


7. Set the off-time (in same way as in step 5).
8. Confirm your entries with OK.
The cursor is now positioned on the No2 parameter (Cam2) and you can configure a further cam.

Special characteristics to note when configuring

The block properties window offers a tab for each one of the three cams. Here you can set the weekly on
times for the cams. Each tab offers you in addition an option of defining the on and off times for each cam
in hour and minute units. Hence, the shortest switching cycle is one minute.
You can disable the on and off times individually, i.e. you can achieve switching cycles extending across
more than one day, for example, by setting the on time for cam 1 to Monday 7:00 h and the off time of
cam 2 to Wednesday 13:07 h, while disabling the on time for cam 2.

97
Backup of the real-time clock

The internal real-time clock of xLogic is buffered against power failure. The buffering time is influenced
by the ambient temperature, and is typically 100 hours at an ambient temperature of 25°C.

5.5.12 Yearly timer

Caution

Short description
The output is controlled by means of a configurable on/off date

Connection Description

Parameter At the No (cam) parameter


you set the on and off trigger

98
for the cam of the yearly
timer.

Output Q Q is set on when the


configured cam is switched on.

Timing diagrams
Example 1: Yearly mode on, Monthly mode off, Pulse Off, On Time = 2000-06-01, Off Time =
2099-08-31: Every year on June 1 the timer output switches on and remains on until August
31.

Example 2: Yearly mode on, Monthly mode off, Pulse on, On Time = 2000-03-15, Off Time =
2099-**-**: Every year on March 15, the timer switches on for one cycle.

Example 3: Yearly mode on, Monthly mode off, Pulse off, On Time = 2008-06-01, Off Time =
2010-08-31: On June 1 of 2008, 2009, and 2010 the timer output switches on and remains
on until August 31.

Example 4: Yearly mode on, Monthly mode off, Pulse on, On Time = 2008-03-15, Off Time =
2010-**-**: On March 15 of 2008, 2009, and 2010, the timer output switches on for one cycle.

99
Example 5: Yearly mode off, Monthly mode off, Pulse off, On Time = 2008-06-01, Off Time =
2008-08-31: On June 1, 2008 the timer output switches on and remains on until August 31,
2010.

Example 6: Yearly mode off, Monthly mode off, Pulse selected, On Time = 2008-03-15, Off Time =
****-**-**: On March 15, 2008 the timer output switches on for one cycle. Because the timer does not
have a monthly action or yearly action, the timer output pulses only one time
at the specified On Time.

Example 7: Yearly mode on, Monthly mode off, Pulse off, On Time = 2008-12-15, Off Time =
2010-01-07: On December 15 of 2008 and 2009, the timer output switches on and remains
on until January 7 of the following year. When the timer output turns off on January 7, 2010 it
does NOT turn on again the following December 15.

Example 8: Yearly mode on, Monthly mode on, On Time = 2008-**-01, Off Time = 2010-**-
05: Starting in 2008, on the first day of each month the timer output switches on and switches off on the
fifth day of the month. The timer continues in this pattern through the last month of 2010.

100
Description of the function
The yearly timer sets and resets the output at specific on and off times.
The off-date identifies the day on which the output is reset again. The first value defines the month, the
second the day.
When you select the every month check box, the yearly clock switches on or off at a certain day of every
month.

Backup of the real-time clock

The internal real-time clock of xLogic is buffered against power failure. The buffering time is influenced
by the ambient temperature, and is typically 100 hours at an ambient temperature of 25°C.
Special characteristics to note when configuring
A click on the dialog box enables direct keyboard input of the month and day values. The values entered
may not exceed the logical maximum of the relevant input boxes; otherwise xLogicsoft returns an error
message.
The calendar icon offers you an Rievtech way of setting the date. It opens a window where you can set
the days and months by clicking the relevant buttons.

Sample configuration
The output of an xLogic is to be set annually on March 1, reset on April 4, set again on July 7,
and reset again on November 19. You need to configure two yearly timers with corresponding on-times.
Then logically link the outputs by means of an OR block.

101
Yearly Timer 1
On-time Mar 1
Off-time Apr 4

Yearly Timer 2
On-time Jul 7
Off-time Nov 19

Result

Place two yearly timer switch SFBs on your programming interface and configure the blocks as specified.

Create a logical link of the blocks via a standard OR block. The OR output is 1 if at least one of the yearly
timer switches is set.

102
5.5.13 Up/Down counter

Short description
An input pulse increments or decrements an internal value, depending on the parameter setting. The
output is set or reset when a configured threshold is reached. The direction of count can be changed with
a signal at input Dir

Connection Description

Input R You reset the output and the internal


counter value to zero with a signal at input
R (Reset).

Input Cnt This function counts the 0 to 1 transitions


at input Cnt. It does not count 1 to 0
transitions.

Input Dir Input Dir (Direction) determines the


direction of count:
Dir = 0: Up
Dir = 1: Down

Parameter On: On threshold


Value range: 0...99999999
Off: Off threshold
Value range: 0...99999999
StartVal: Initial value from which to begin
counting either down or up.
Retentivity set (on) = the status is
retentive in memory.

Up/Down counter: Cnt

The value of "On","Off"and "Cnt"can be set/modified in parameter mode. For information about
how to modify ,refer to chapter 5.2.2 please.

Timing diagram

Description of the function


The function increments (Dir = 0) or decrements (Dir = 1) the internal counter by one count with every
positive edge at input Cnt.
You can reset the internal counter value to '000000', with a signal at the reset input R. As long as R=1,
the output is 0 and the pulses at input Cnt are not counted.
Output Q is set and reset according to the actual value at Cnt and the set thresholds. See the following
rules for calculation.
Calculation rule
If the on threshold >= off threshold, then:
Q = 1, if Cnt >= On
Q = 0, if Cnt < Off.
If the on threshold < off threshold, then:
Q = 1, if On <= Cnt < Off.
Caution
The function polls the limit value of the counter once in each cycle.
Thus, if the pulses at the fast inputs are faster than the scan cycle time, the SFB might not switch until
the so specified limit has been exceeded.
Example: Up to 100 pulses per cycle can be counted; 900 pulses have been counted so far. On = 950; Off
= 10000. The output is set in the next cycle, after the value has reached 1000.
The output would not be set at all if the value Off = 980

5.5.14 Hours counter

Short description
A configured time is triggered with a signal at the monitoring input. The output is set when this time has
expired.

Connection Description

Input R A positive edge (0 to 1 transition) at input R resets output Q


and sets a configured value MI at the counter for the
duration of the time-to-go (MN).

Input En En is the monitoring input. xLogic scans the on-time of this


input.

Input Ral A positive edge at input Ral (Reset all) resets both the hours
counter (OT) and the output, and sets the configured value
MI at the counter to for the duration of the time-to-go (MN).
That is,

 Output Q = 0,

 The measured operating hours OT = 0, and

 The time-to-go of the maintenance interval


MN = MI.

Parameter MI: Maintenance interval to be specified in hour units


Range of values: 0000...9999 h

OT: Expired total operation time. An offset can be specified.


Range of values: 00000...99999 h
Q 0:

 When "R" is selected:


Q = 1, if MN = 0;
Q = 0, if R = 1 or Ral = 1

 When "R+En" is selected:


Q = 1, if MN = 0;
Q = 0, if R = 1 or Ral = 1 or En = 0.

Output Q The output is set when the time-to-go MN = 0. The output is


reset:

 When "Q 0:R+En", if


R = 1 or Ral = 1 or En = 0

 When "Q 0:R",


if R = 1 or Ral = 1.

105
Timing diagram

MI = Configured time interval


MN = Time-to-go
OT = Total time expired since the last 1 signal at the Ral input
These values are principally held retentive!
Parameter
The maintenance interval MI can be provided by the actual value of another already-programmed
function:
Analog comparator: Ax – Ay
Analog trigger: Ax
Analog amplifier: Ax
Analog multiplexer: AQ
Analog ramp: AQ
Analog math: AQ
PI controller: AQ
Data latching relay: AQ
Up/Down counter: Cnt

The value of "MI" can be set and modified in parameter mode. For information about how to modify,
refer to chapter 4.2.2 please.

Description of the function

The hours counter monitors input En. As long as the status at this input is 1, xLogic calculates the time
expired and the time-to-go MN. xLogic displays these times when set to configuration mode. The output
is set to 1 when the time-to-go is equal to zero.
You reset output Q and the time-to-go counter to the specified value MI with a signal at input R. The
operation hour counter OT remains unaffected.

106
You reset output Q and the time-to-go counter to the specified value MI with a signal at input Ral. The
operation hour counter OT is reset to 0.
Depending on your configuration of the Q parameter, the output is either reset with a reset signal at input
R or Ral, or when the reset signal is 1 or the En signal is 0.

Limit value of OT
The values of the operating hours in OT are retained when you reset the hours counter with a signal at
input R. The hours counter OT continues the count as long as En = 1, irrespective of the status at the
reset input R. The counter limit of OT is 99999 h. The hours counter stops when it reaches this value.

5.5.19 Softkey

Short description
This SFB provides the action of a mechanical pushbutton or switch.

Connection Description

Input En Output Q is set with a 0 to 1 signal transition at input En


(Enable) and if, in addition, 'Status=On' has been
confirmed in configuration mode.

Parameter Type: Sets either a pushbutton action for one cycle or a


switching action of the function.
Status: On or Off state that is applied in the initial cycle
after program startup, is retentivity is not set.
Retentivity set (on) = the status is retentive in memory.

Output Q Output Q remains set 1, as long as En=1 and the status at


the parameter Type = Switch and Status = On.
Output Q is set for the duration of one cycle if EN=1 and the
status at the parameters Type = momentary (pushbutton)
and Status = On.

Factory state
Default of 'Type' is 'momentary action switch'.

Timing diagram

121
Description of the function
The output is set, when input En is set and the 'Status' parameter is set to 'On' and confirmed with OK.
This action is performed irrespective of a configured switch or pushbutton function.
The output is reset to '0' in the following three cases:

 With a 1 to 0 signal transition at input En.

 When a pushbutton function is configured and one cycle has expired after its
actuation.

 When the 'Status' parameter sets the 'Off' status in configuration mode, and this
has been confirmed with OK.

Particular characteristics to be noted when configuring

The softkey can be used both with momentary push button or switching action. At the status parameter
you can define the on (actuated) or off state for the switch/push button.
If the softkey is assigned a push button action, the output is always set for the duration of one cycle with
a 0 to 1 transition at input En when the push button is in on state, or if the push button state changes
from Off to On when En=1.

Parameters of softkey in message texts block:


1.The “ok” means you can press the ok button to switch the status of the softkey block after its parameter
inserted into message texts.
2.The “Esc” means you can press the ESC button to switch the status of the softkey block after its
parameter inserted into message texts.
3.The status of softkey block is also can be inserted into the message texts block for displaying.

5.5.20 Shift register

Short description
The shift register function can be used to read an input value and to shift the bits. The output value
corresponds with the configured shift register bit. The shift direction can be changed at a special input.

Connection Description

Input In The function when started


reads this input value.

Input Trg The SFB is started with a


positive edge (0 t 1
transition) at input Trg
(Trigger). A 1 to 0 transition
is irrelevant.

Input Dir You define the shift direction


of the shift register bits
S1...S8 at the Dir input:
Dir = 0: shift up (S1 >> S8)
Dir = 1: shift down (S8 >>
S1)

Parameter Shift register bit that


determines the value of
output Q.
Possible settings: S1 ... S8
Retentivity set (on) = the
status is retentive in
memory.

Output Q The output value


corresponds with the
configured shift register bit.

Timing diagram

123
Setting the Par parameter
This special function is not available in parameter assignment mode.

Description of the function

The function reads the value of input In with a positive edge (0 to 1 transition) at input Trg (Trigger).
This value is written to shift register bits S1 or S8, depending on the set shift direction:

 Shift up: S1 accepts the value of input In; the previous value of S1 is shifted to
S2, S2 is shifted to S3, etc.

 Shift down: S8 accepts the value of input In; the previous value of S8 is shifted
to S7, S7 is shifted to S6, etc.

Q outputs the value of the configured shift register bits.


If retentivity is not enabled, the shift function restarts at S1 or S8 after a power failure.

Note
The special function shift register can be used only once in the circuit program.

5.5.21 Analog comparator

Short description
The output is set and reset depending on the difference Ax - Ay and on two configurable thresholds.

Connection Description

124
Inputs Ax, Ay Input the analog signals of which you want to
determine the delta at the inputs Ax and Ay.
Use the analog inputs AI1...AI8, the analog outputs
AQ1 and AQ2.
AI1..AI8: 0 - 10 V corresponds with 0 - 1000 (internal
value).

Parameter A: Gain
Range of values: ± 10.00
B: Zero offset
Range of values: ± 10,000
On: On threshold
Range of values: ± 20,000
Off: Off threshold
Range of values: ± 20,000
p: Number of decimals
Range of values: 0, 1, 2, 3

Output Q Q is set or reset depending on the set thresholds.

Parameter p (number of decimals)


The on threshold On and the off threshold Off can be provided by the actual value of another
already-programmed function:
Analog comparator: Ax – Ay
Analog trigger: Ax
Analog amplifier: Ax
Analog multiplexer: AQ
Analog ramp: AQ
Analog math: AQ
PI controller: AQ
Data latching relay: AQ
Up/Down counter: Cnt

Applies only to Ax, Ay, Delta, On and Off values displayed in a message text.
Does not apply to the comparison of on and off values! (The compare function ignores the decimal point.)
The value of "On","Off"and "Dec" can be set/modified in parameter mode. For information about
how to set/modify, refer to chapter 5.2.2 please.(Dec means decimal point.)

Timing diagram

125
Q for Ax - Ay > 200, On = Off = 200
Description of the function
The function reads the value of the signal at the analog input Ax.
This value is multiplied by the value of parameter A (gain). Parameter B (offset) is added to the product,
hence
(Ax ∙ gain) + offset = Actual value Ax.
(Ay ∙ gain) + offset = Actual value Ay.
Output Q is set or reset depending on the difference of the actual values Ax - Ay and the set thresholds.
See the following calculation rule.

Calculation rule

 If threshold On ≥Threshold Off, then:

Q = 1, if (actual value Ax - actual value Ay) > On

Q = 0, if (actual value Ax - actual value Ay) ≤Off.

 If threshold On < Threshold Off, then Q = 1, falls:

On ≤ (actual value Ax - actual value Ay) < Off.


Reducing the input sensitivity of the analog comparator
You can delay the output of the analog comparator selectively by means of the "on delay" and "off delay"
SFBs. By doing so, you determine that output Q is only set if the input trigger length Trg (= output of the
analog comparator) exceeds the defined on delay time.
This way you can set a virtual hysteresis, which renders the input less sensitive to short changes.
Particular characteristics to be noted when configuring
For help on analog block parameters, refer to the Analog value processing section in xLogicsoft.

Setting the Par parameter


The gain and offset parameters are used to adapt the sensors to the relevant application.
Example
In a heating control system, the supply Tv and return line temperatures Tr are to be
compared, for example with a sensor at AI2.
A control signal is to be triggered (for example "heater On") when the difference between the
supply and return line temperatures is greater than 15 °C. The control signal is reset when

126
the difference is less than 5 °C.
The process variable of the temperature is to be shown in parameter assignment mode.
The thermocouples available have the following technical data: -30 to +70 °C, 0 to 10 VDC.

Reducing the input response of the analog comparator


You can selectively delay the output of an analog comparator by means of the "On-delay"
and "Off-delay" special functions. With on-delay, output Q is only set if the pulse width of the
triggering signal at input Trg (=analog comparator output) is longer than the on-delay time.
Using this method, you will obtain a virtual hysteresis and reduce the input response to short signals.

Description of the function


The function reads the value of the signal at the analog input Ax.
This value is multiplied by the value of parameter A (gain). Parameter B (offset) is added to the product,
as follows:
(Ax * Gain) + Offset = Actual value Ax
The function block calculates the proportion of the value Ax to the range. The block sets the digital output
Q high for the same proportion of the PT (periodic time) parameter, and sets Q low for the remainder of
the time period.

Examples with Timing Diagrams


The following examples show how the PWM instruction modulates a digital output signal from the analog
input value:
Example 1
Analog input value: 500 (range 0...1000)
Periodic time T: 4 seconds

The digital output of the PWM function is 2 seconds high, 2 seconds low, 2 seconds high, 2 seconds low
and continues in that pattern as long as parameter "En" = high.

Example 2
Analog input value: 300 (range 0...1000)
Periodic time T: 10 seconds
The digital output of the PWM function is 3 seconds high, 7 seconds low, 3 seconds high, 7 seconds low
and continues in that pattern as long as parameter "En" = high.

138
Calculation rule
Q = 1, for (Ax – Min) / (Max – Min) of time period PT
Q = 0, for PT – [(Ax – Min) / (Max – Min)] of time period PT.
Note: Ax in this calculation refers to the actual value Ax as calculated using the Gain and Offset. Min and
Max refer to the minimum and maximum values specified for the range

Special feature.
Generally, the output frequency could be up to 30Hz But the Q3,Q4 of ELC-12 type,Q5,Q6 of
ELC-18/22/26 (PNP transistor output) CPU could be up to 333 Hz and the property dialog box of PWM
function block setting as follows:

If the special output is selected in the property dialog box of PWM block, then the unit of “periodic time”
will be changed from s:1/100s to s:1/1000s, so if you input 3 (1/1000s) , then its frequency is 1000/3 Hz.

Notes:

1. The periodic time must be no less than 3 ms.


2. If the specific output is selected in the property dialog box of PWM block, then the output pin of PWM
function block cannot be linked as input to other blocks.
3. Q3, Q4 in the above dialog box are exactly corresponding to Q3, Q4 of ELC-12 CPU and Q5,Q6 of
ELC-22/26 and upgraded ELC-18 CPUs
4. Common speed output allow the frequency different for Q3&Q4 of ELC-12 CPU and Q5&Q6 of
ELC-22/26 and upgraded ELC-18 CPUs; But if the high speed ticked in the dialog box then the frequency

139
settings must be same for Q3&Q4 of ELC-12 CPU and Q5&Q6 of ELC-22/26 and upgraded ELC-18 CPUs.

5.5.29 Analog Ramp

Short Description:
The Analog Ramp instruction allows the output to be changed from the current level to a selected level at
a specified rate.

Connection Description

Input En A change in the status from 0 to 1 at input EN (Enable) applies the start/stop level (Offset "B"
+ StSp) to the output for 100 ms and starts the ramp operation to the selected level.

A change in the status from 1 to 0 immediately sets the current level to Offset "B", which
makes output AQ equal to 0.
SeI = 0: The step 1 (level 1) is selected.
Input Sel
SeI = 1: The step 2 (level 2) is selected.
A change in status of Sel causes the current level to start changing to the selected level at the
specified rate.
A change in the status from 0 to 1 at input St (Decelerated Stop) causes the current level to
Input St
decrease at a constant rate until the start/stop level (Offset "B" + StSp) is reached. The
start/stop level is maintained for 100 ms and then the current level is set to Offset "B", which
makes output AQ equal to 0.
Level1 and Level2: Levels to be reached; value range for each level: -10,000 to +20,000
parameter
MaxL: Maximum value that must not be exceeded.
Value range: -10,000 to +20,000
StSp: Start/Stop offset: value that is added to Offset "B" to create the start/stop level. If the
Start/Stop offset is 0, then the start/stop level is Offset "B").
Value range: 0 to +20,000
Rate: Speed with which level 1, level 2 or 0ffset is reached. Steps/seconds are issued.
Value range: 1 to 10,000
A: Gain
Value range: 0 to 10,00
B: Offset
Value range: +- 10.000

p: Number of decimal places


Value range: 0, 1, 2, 3

140
The output AQ is scaled using the formula:
Output AQ
(Current Level - Offset "B") / Gain "A"

Note: When AQ is displayed in parameter mode or message mode, it is displayed as an


un-scaled value (engineering units: current level).
Value range for AQ: 0...+32767

Parameter p (number of decimal places)


The level parameters Level1 and Level2 can be provided by the value of another already-programmed
function:
Analog comparator: Ax – Ay
Analog trigger: Ax
Analog amplifier: Ax
Analog multiplexer: AQ
Analog ramp: AQ
Analog math: AQ
PI controller: AQ
Data latching relay: AQ
Up/Down counter: Cnt

Parameter p only applies for displaying the values of AQ, level 1, level 2, MaxL, StSp, and Rate in a
message text.

Timing diagram for AQ

Description of function
If the input En is set, then the function sets the value StSp + Offset "B" for 100 ms.
Then, depending on the connection of Sel, the function runs from the level StSp + Offset "B" to either

141
level 1 or level 2 at the acceleration set in Rate.
If the input St is set, the function runs to a level of StSp + B at the acceleration set in Rate. Then the
function holds the level at StSp + Offset "B" for 100 ms. After 100 ms, the level is set to Offset "B". output
AQ. The scaled value (output AQ) is 0.
If the input St is set, the function can only be restarted once the inputs St and En have been reset.
If input Sel has been changed, depending on the connection of Sel, the function runs from the current
target level to the new target level at the rate that is specified.
If the input En is reset, the function immediately sets the current level to Offset "B".
The current level is updated every 100 ms. Note the relationship between output AQ and the current
level:
Output AQ = (current level – Offset "B" ) / Gain "A"

PI controller: AQ
Data latching relay: AQ
Up/Down counter: Cnt

Parameter p applies to the display of V1, V2, V3, V4 and AQ in a message text.

Description of the function


The analog math function combines the four operands and three operators to form an equation. The
operator can be any one of the four standard operators: +, -, *, or /. For each operator, you must set a
unique priority of High ("H"), Medium ("M"), or Low ("L"). The high operation will be performed first,
followed by the medium operation, and then by the low operation. You must have exactly one operation
of each priority. The operand values can reference another previously-defined function to provide the
value. The analog math function rounds the result to the nearest integer value.
The number of operand values is fixed at four and the number of operators is fixed at 3. If you need to
use fewer operands, use constructions such as " + 0" or " * 1" to fill the remaining parameters.
You can also configure the behavior of the function when the Enable parameter "En"=0. The function
block can either retain its last value or be set to 0.

Possible errors: Zero division and overflow


If the analog math function block execution results in zero division or overflow, it sets internal bits that
indicate the type of error that occurred. You can program an analog math error detection function block
in your circuit program to detect these errors, and to control the program behavior as needed. You
program one analog math error detection function block to reference one specific analog math function
block.
Examples
The following tables show some simple example analog math block parameters, and the resulting
equations and output values:

V1 Operator1 V2 Operator2 V3 Operator3 V4


12 +(M) 6 /(H) 3 -(L) 1
Equation: (12 + (6 / 3)) - 1
Result: 13

V1 Operator1 V2 Operator2 V3 Operator3 V4

143
2 +(L) 3 *(M) 1 +(H) 4
Equation: 2+ (3*(1+4))
Result: 17

V1 Operator1 V2 Operator2 V3 Operator3 V4


100 -(H) 25 /(L) 2 +(M) 1

Equation: (100 – 25) / (2 + 1)


Result: 25

5.5.31 Analog math error detection

Short Description

The analog math error detection block sets an output if an error has occurred in the referenced analog
math function block.

Connection Description

Input EN Enable the analog math error detection function block.


Input R Reset the output
Parameter Referenced FB: block number of an analog math instruction
Error to detect: Zero division, Overflow, or Zero division OR Overflow.
Auto Reset: Reset the output when the failure condition clears.
Output AQ Q is set high if the error to detect occurred in the last execution of the
referenced analog math function block.

Parameter Referenced FB

The value for the Referenced FB parameter references the block number of an already-programmed
analog math function block.

Description of the function

The analog math error detection block sets the output when the referenced analog math function block
has an error. You can program the function to set the output on a zero division error, an overflow error,
or when either type of error occurs.
If you select the automatically reset check box, the output is reset prior to the next execution of the
function block. If not, the output retains its state until the analog math error detection block is reset with
the R parameter.
In any scan cycle, if the referenced analog math function block executes before the analog math error
detection function block, the error is detected in the same scan cycle. if the referenced analog math
function block executes after the analog math error detection function block, the error is detected in the
144
next scan cycle.

Analog math error detection logic table

In the table below, Error to Detect represents the parameter of the analog math error detection
instruction that selects which type of error to detect. Zero represents the zero division bit set by the
analog math instruction at the end of its execution: 1 if the error occurred, 0 if not. OF represents the
overflow bit set by the analog math instruction: 1 if the error occurred, 0 if not. Zero division OR Overflow
represents the logical OR of the zero division bit and the overflow bit of the referenced analog math
instruction. Output (Q) represents the output of the analog math error detection function. An “x”
indicates that the bit can be either 0 or 1 with no influence on the output.

Error to zero of Output

however, when Low High index was set, AQ=0x 1200
Regarding Modbus RTU detail, please refer to our Modbus RTU communication protocol file for it.

Description of the function:


In the configuration of our xLogic communication, the xLogic usually serves as a slave via Modbus RTU
Protocol, and can communicate with a master directly. That’s to say, any device communicating with
xLogic sends command to it, and then its response will be sent out only when the xLogic has received the
command, Just as the below figure shows:

146
However, the “Modbus Read” or “Modbus Write”(next chapter will introduce it) function block would be
utilized if xLogic shall be required to play a role of master to communicate with other devices. As the
following figure shows:

When you put the “Modbus read” or “Modbus Write” function block in your program and make some
configurations, the function that xLogic serves as master will be realized.

It is proportional-action and integral-action controllers. You can use both types of controller individually
or combined.

Connection Description

Output AQ Analog output (manipulated variable)


Value range for AQ: 0 to 1,000

Parameter P (number of decimal places)


Only applies for portraying the values from PV, SP, Min. and Max. in a message text.
Timing Diagram
The nature, manner and speed with which the AQ changes depends on the parameters KC and TI. Thus,
the course of AQ in the diagram is merely an example. A control action is continuous; therefore the
diagram portrays just an extract.

158
1. A disturbance causes the PV to drop, as Dir is positioned upwards, AQ increases until PV corresponds
again to SP.

2. A disturbance causes the PV to drop, as Dir is positioned upwards, AQ decreases until PV


corresponds again to SP.

Dir is coordinated to the basic conduct of a control loop. The direction (dir) cannot be changed
during the term of the function. The change in Dir here is shown for the purposes of clarification.

3. As AQ is set to 0 by means of the input R, PV changes. This is based on the fact that PV increases,
which on account of Dir = upwards causes AQ to drop.

Description of Function
If the input A/M is set to 0, then the special function issues output AQ with the value that you set with
parameter Mq.
If the input A/M is set to 1, then automatic mode commences. As an integral sum the value Mq is adopted,
the controller function begins the calculations in accordance with the formulas given in Control and
regulate basics. The updated value PV is used to calculate in the formulas.

Updated value PV = (PV * gain) + offset

If the updated value PV = SP, then the special function does not change the value
of AQ.

Dir = upwards/+ (timing diagram numbers 1 and 3)

159
 If the updated value PV > SP, then the special function reduces the value of AQ.
 If the updated value PV < SP, then the special function increases the value of
AQ.

Dir = downwards/- (timing diagram number 2)

 If the updated value PV > SP, then the special function increases the value of
AQ.

 If the updated value PV < SP, then the special function reduces the value of AQ.

With a disturbance, AQ continues to increase / decrease until the updated value PV


again corresponds to SP. The speed with which AQ changes depends on the
parameters KC and TI. If the input PV exceeds the parameter Max., then the updated
value PV is set to the value of Max.. If the PV falls short of the parameter Min., then
the updated value PV is set to the value of Min.

If the input R is set to 1, then the AQ output is reset. As long as R is set, the input A/M
is disabled.

Sampling Time

The sampling time is fixed at 500 ms.

Parameter sets

In order to simplify the use of the PI controller, the parameters for KC, TI and Dir are
already given as sets for the following applications:

Characteristics when configuring
Observe the Control and regulate basics.
Control and regulate
In engineering, quantities can be both controlled and regulated.
When controlling, a quantity is manipulated without being able to compensate for outside influences.
When regulating, a quantity is maintained at a specific value in order to compensate for outside
influences.
In the following example, controlling means that the person can set the heat output at a fixed value. The
heater cannot compensate for the drop in room temperature when a window is opened.
In the example below, regulating means that the person can increase the heat output if the room
temperature drops to below 20 °C. If the room temperature rises above 20 °C, the heat output is
reduced.

Basic concepts of regulating


In the example, the current for the electric heating is the manipulated variable. The changeable
resistance is the actuator. The hand that operates the actuator is the control. The actual room
temperature is the controlled variable or the process value. The desired room temperature is the
command variable or the setpoint value. The electric heating is the control process. The thermometer is
the sensor. The temperature loss from opening the window is the disturbance variable.
So this means that the person measures the process value (room temperature) with the sensor
(thermometer), compares the process value (room temperature) with the command variable (desired
room temperature) and uses the actuator (changeable resistance) to manually regulate the manipulated
variable (heating current), in order to compensate for the disturbance variable (temperature drop from
opening the window). The person is therefore the controller.

161
The control device is formed from the actuator and the control.
The control and controller together form the regulating device.
The following picture gives an abstract portrayal of the situation described above.
The comparing element uses the sensor to compare the command variable with the process value. If the
command variables and process value deviate from one another, this results in a positive or negative loop
error that in turn changes the process value.

Control loop
The process value x influences the manipulated variable M by means of the regulating device. This
creates a closed circuit that is also known as a control loop.
If, in the example above, the window is opened, the temperature in the room drops. The person must
increase the heat output of the heater. If the heat output is increased too much, it will get too hot. The
person must then reduce the heat output.
If the heat output is increased or reduced too quickly, then the control loop starts to sway. The room
temperature fluctuates. It is either too hot or too cold. To prevent this, the person must carefully and
slowly reduce or increase the heat output.
Loop error
The loop error is the difference between the command variable and the process value. In other words:
the deviation of a process value from a set value.

162
e = SP – PV
The loop error e brings about a change to the manipulated variable M.
The example above illustrates this very well: if, with a desired temperature of 20 °C (= command value
w), the room temperature is 22 °C (= process value PV), this results in the loop error:
e = SP – PV = 20 °C - 22 °C = -2 °C
In this case, the negative sign indicates a reversing action: the heat output is reduced.
In a control loop's state of equilibrium, the loop error is zero or very small. If the command variable
changes or there is a disturbance, a loop error arises. The loop error is corrected by means of the
manipulated variable M.

Controller basics

A controller can be simply portrayed as follows:

The comparing element and the controller function describe the conduct of the controller.
The following describes the most important types of controller. A controller's step response tells us a lot
about its conduct. The step response describes how a controller reacts to the erratic change in the
process value.
There are 3 important basic types of controller:
Proportional-action controller (P controller)
Integral-action controller (I controller)
Differential-action controller (D controller – we're not touching on this here)
These are combined for a real controller. For instance, the PI controller:
P Controller
A proportional-action controller (P controller) changes the manipulated variable M proportional to the
loop error. The P controller works immediately. By itself it cannot drive the loop error to zero.

:Manipulated variable of the P controller at the time n

:Gain of the P controller

: Loop error at the time n


The following picture shows a jump in process value and step response of the controller:

163
Summary
The P controller has the following characteristics:
It cannot correct faults with the control process > lasting loop error.
It reacts immediately to a change in the process value.
It is stable.
I Controller
An integral-action controller (I controller) changes the manipulated variable M proportional to the loop
error and to the time. The I controller works by delayed action. It completely remedies a loop error.
In order to calculate the value of the manipulated variable at a period of time n, the time up until this
period of time must be divided into small time slices. The loop errors at the end of each time slice must
be added up (integrated) and they are then entered in the calculation.

: Manipulated variable of the I controller at the time n

: Manipulated variable of the I controller at the time n-1; also called integral sum

: Gain of the I controller

: Sampling time, duration of a time slice

: Integral time: by means of this time, the influence of the integral part is controlled on the

manipulated variable, also known as integral-action time

: Loop error at the time n

: Loop error at the time n-1; etc.

: Loop error at the beginning of the calculations

The following picture shows a jump in process value and step response of the controller:

164
Summary
The PI controller has the following characteristics:
It sets the process value exactly to the command variable.
By so doing, it tends to oscillate and is unstable.
It requires more time to carry out the control action than the P controller .
PI controller
A PI controller reduces the loop error immediately and will eventually drive the loop error to zero.

: Manipulated variable at the time n

: Proportional part of the manipulated variable

: Integral part of the manipulated variable

: Manipulated variable of the I controller at the time n-1; also called integral

sum

: Gain of the P controller

: Gain of the I controller

: Sampling time, duration of a time slice

: Integral time; by means of this time the influence of the integral part is

controlled on the manipulated variable, also known as the integral-action time

165
: Loop error at the time n

The following picture shows a jump in process value and step response of the controller:

Summary
The PI controller has the following characteristics:
The P controller components quickly intercept an occurring loop error.
The I controller components can then remedy the remaining loop error.
The controller components supplement each other so that the PI controller works quickly and precisely.

en Refer to SP and PV "

Loop error at the time n;


generally applies: e = SP –
PV

SP The parameter SP is the set-value -10,000 to +20,000


assignment w. For this parameter you
can use the analog output of a
different special function.

PV PV is the process value x and is "


calculated as follows:

PV = (analog value on input * gain) +


offset.

You can connect the input for


example by means of an analog input
with a PT100 sensor.

The gain parameter has an effect on 0.0 to 10.0


PV

The offset parameter has an effect on -10,000 to +20,000


PV

PV is restricted by the parameters In each case: -10,000 to +20,000


Min. and Max.

The Dir parameter gives the action - or +


direction of the controller.

Positive means: If set value > process


value then the process value is
increased; if set value < process
value then the process value is
reduced.

Negative means: If set value >


process value then the process value
is reduced; if set value < process
value then the process value is
increased.

e.g. heat regulation: if the set value is


greater than the process value (room
is too cold), the manipulated variable
increases the process value.

5.5.40 Stopwatch

Short description
The stopwatch records the time elapsed since it was enabled.

Connection Description
Input En En (Enable) is the monitoring input. xLogic sets the current elapsed time to 0 and begins
counting elapsed time when En transitions from 0 to 1. When En transitions from 1 to 0,
the elapsed time is frozen.
Input Lap A positive edge (0 to 1 transition) at input Lap pauses the stopwatch, and sets output to lap time.
A negative edge (1 to 0 transition) at input Lap resumes the stopwatch, and set the output to
current elapsed time..
Input R A signal at input R (Reset) clears the current elapsed time and lap time.
Parameter Time base for elapsed time, which you can set to hours, minutes, seconds, or 1/100ths of seconds.
Output AQ The output AQ outputs value of the current elapsed time when it is a negative edge (1 to 0 transition)
at the input Lap, and outputs value of the Lap time when it is a positive edge (0 to 1 transition)

*) If you select the check box "when En = 0, reset Max/Min"


Description of the function

182
If you select the check box "when En = 0, reset Max/Min":
En = 0: The function sets the AQ value to 0.
En = 1: The function outputs a value at AQ, depending on the settings of Mode and S1.
If you do not select the check box "when En = 0, reset Max/Min":
En = 0: The function holds the value of AQ at the current value.
En = 1: The function outputs a value at AQ, depending on the settings of Mode and S1.

Mode = 1: The function sets AQ to the maximum value
Mode = 2 and S1 = 0: The function sets AQ to the minimum value
Mode = 2 and S1 = 1: The function sets AQ to the maximum value
Mode = 3 or a block value is referenced: The function outputs actual analog input value.

Max/Min block upper/lower function

In the dialog box of Max/Min block, there is a upper/lower limit setting, when the block output the AQ
value is less than the lower value, the AQ shall be equal to the Lower value; While the block output the

183
AQ value is more than the upper value, the AQ shall be equal to the upper value.
If someone wants to use the upper/lower limitation for other function blocks. such upper/lower limit
function can be used, then this block can be referenced as other blocks parameters when programming.

Here is an example:
Someone wants to use the panel key to change the on-delay parameters for 1s—10s in the text message
block, if the value which user set exceeds such range, then it will crush the machine, hence we must add
the upper/lower limitation in the program to avoid such trouble.

reached.

Parameter Channel: Ethernet


Reset period:1—100s

Output When the Ethernet module had been reset successfully, this block will
output a short trigger.

Description of the function


In order to monitor the communication status of the Ethernet to see if it is normal or continuous(or avoid
the Ethernet module is dead by unknown cause), sometimes we need reset the Ethernet module built-in
in the CPU when the communication has failed or been timeout.
Just one parameter to be set is the "Reset period" as follows:

Here are two examples with detailed description on how to use these blocks in the program.

Example 1
Just as below program shows, after the CPU running, we can push down the digital input1(just need a
short trigger to reset the Ethernet modem), after the Reset period(here is 5s) is reached, the Ethernet
modem will start up and this block will output a short trigger at the same time.

Example2
We also can use such “device reset” block along with the “Com status” function block together in the
program, when there is no data transmission through the Ethernet port while the timeout period(50s) is
reached, the com port status will output HI signal ,and then the Device reset block would be enabled and
the Ethernet module will be reset for the Reset period in the device reset block property dialog box.

5.5.46 Astronomical clock

Short description
The astronomical clock SFB is used to set an output high between sunrise and sunset based on the local
time at the geographical location of the xLogic devices. The output status of this function block also
depends on the configuration of summer time/wintertime conversion.
Connection Description
Parameter
The location info including longitude, latitude and time zone.
Output Q
Q is set to hi when sunrise time is reached. It holds this state until sunset time is reached.

Parameters

190
In the astronomical clock dialog, you can select the location of the xLogic device. You can select one of
following pre-defined time zone locations:

Beijing
Berlin
London
Rome

5.5.48 Angular Cam Timer

Short description
This function block is used to describe operation of a cam timer based on the angle made by the cams
as the analog input. The number of steps can be selected and each step corresponds 2
configurable outputs.

Connection Description

Input Enables the function. If this input is not activated, the function remains inactive.
VALIDATION: Activated implicitly if it has not been connected.

Input ANGLE: Timer command input (from 0° to 359°). The outputs vary according to this value

193
and the OUTPUT STATE parameter.

Output OUTPUT 1: Output 1 is related to the value in the OUTPUT 1 column in the OUTPUT STATE
table. If the value of the angle in the ANGLE input is higher or the same as a value
N in the ANGLE column in the OUTPUT STATE table and less than the value N+1 in
the table, the value of the corresponding OUTPUT 1 column is copied to OUTPUT 1
(1 => output at ON, 0 => output at OFF).

Output OUTPUT 2: Output 2 is related to the value in the OUTPUT 2 column in the OUTPUT STATE
table. If the value of the angle in the ANGLE input is higher or the same as a value
N in the ANGLE column in the OUTPUT STATE table and less than the value N+1 in
the table, the value of the corresponding OUTPUT 2 column is copied to OUTPUT 2
(1 => output at ON, 0 => output at OFF).

Parameters NUMBER OF DEGREES: Equivalent to the wheel step number (2 to 72 steps of 5° to


180°). \
OUTPUT STATES: Table is listing the output states for each position. These states
can be modified by left-clicking in the corresponding boxes.

5.5.49 Pumps Management

Short description

APPLICATION-SPECIFIC FUNCTION: PUMPS MANAGEMENT: (TANK MANAGEMENT WITH CIRCULAR PUMP


CHANGEOVER).
This function is used to set to ON a maximum of four digital outputs which can be activated (OUTPUT 1 ...
OUTPUT 4). This number is equal to the maximum number of digital inputs (from 2 to 4) in the ON state.
In addition, the outputs set to ON are selected so that in the event of prolonged operation, each output
will have been set to ON the same number of times.

The ON duration of the outputs is set to equal values by applying the following technique:
As the number of ON inputs increases, the outputs changing to ON are those following the order of the
PILOT OUTPUT NUMBER: 1 for OUTPUT 1, 2 for OUTPUT 2, 3 for OUTPUT 3 and 4 for OUTPUT 4. For
example, if the "outputs controlled" parameter has the value 4, if PILOT OUTPUT NUMBER has the value
3 and just one input is set to ON, only the OUTPUT 3 output will be set to ON. As soon as two inputs
change to ON, the OUTPUT 3 output remains at ON and the OUTPUT 4 output changes to ON. As soon as
a third input changes to ON, the OUTPUT 3 and OUTPUT 4 outputs remain ON and OUTPUT 1 changes to
ON.
As soon as the number of outputs decreases, the outputs changing to OFF will be those which have been
in the ON state the longest. As soon as one output changes to OFF, PILOT OUTPUT NUMBER takes the
value of the output number after the output(s) which has (have) just been set to OFF. To complete the

194
above example, as soon as one input changes to OFF, the OUTPUT 3 output changes to OFF and PILOT OUTPUT
NUMBER displays the integer value 4.
The Parameters tab in the property box contains the number of outputs which may change to ON
depending on the number of inputs which are set to ON. The values of this parameter are fixed at 2, 3 or
4.

If the value of the parameter is fixed at 2, only the OUTPUT 1 and OUTPUT 2 outputs are used and may
therefore change to ON. In this case, if more than two inputs change to ON, the OUTPUT 1 and OUTPUT
2 outputs remain at ON and the OUTPUT 3 and OUTPUT 4 outputs remain fixed at OFF.

If the value of the parameter is fixed at 3, only the OUTPUT 1, OUTPUT 2 and OUTPUT 3 outputs are used
and may therefore change to ON. . In this case, if four inputs change to ON, the OUTPUT 1, OUTPUT 2 and
OUTPUT 3 outputs remain at ON and OUTPUT 4 remains fixed at OFF.

If the value of the parameter is fixed at 4, only the OUTPUT 1, OUTPUT 2, OUTPUT 3 and OUTPUT 4
outputs are used and may therefore change to ON.

All inputs which are not connected have the value OFF.

When the program is initialized, PILOT OUTPUT NUMBER is fixed at 1.

The Parameters tab contains the default check box which re-initializes PILOT OUTPUT NUMBER to 1 (and
defines the first output activated when the first input changes to 1) after a controller power failure.

Example of use:

Filling a tank with a group of four pumps operating in parallel. The operating duration of each pump is the
same.

The "number of outputs controlled" parameter is fixed at 4.

195
On initialization, PILOT OUTPUT NUMBER has the value 1. On initialization, if the tank is in the state
indicated and if a sensor above the water is in the ON state, when the user program is executed, the
INPUT 1 and INPUT 2 inputs are ON, INPUT 3 and INPUT 4 are OFF and OUTPUT 2 and OUTPUT3 are ON.

Assuming that the tank is full, INPUT 2 changes to OFF and OUTPUT 1 changes to OFF. PILOT OUTPUT
NUMBER indicates the value 2.

Assuming that the tank is empty, INPUT 2 changes back to ON, OUTPUT 3 changes to ON and OUTPUT 2
remains ON.

Assuming that the tank refills, INPUT 2 changes back to OFF, OUTPUT 2 changes to OFF and PILOT
OUTPUT NUMBER indicates the value 3.

Assuming that the tank continues to refill, INPUT 1 changes to OFF, OUTPUT 3 changes to OFF and PILOT
OUTPUT NUMBER indicates the value 4.

5.5.50 Defrost

short Description
The defrost output changes to ON when the input temperature is less than the minimum temperature for

5.9 Basic Operation

This chapter will tell you how to write logic function graph Program with xLogicsoft, how to simulate the
Program you write with xLogicsoft, how to communicate between PC and xLogic with xLogicsoft, how to
copy system document of xLogic with xLogicsoft, and how to complete the update of application and
system Program code. If you want to write a function graph Program, first of all, it’s necessary to start an
empty document, and then put the function block into editing box. First set the property of every function
block, then link every function block according to logic controlling relation, thereby complete the
protracting of a logic function graph. In addition, in order to help the users confirm if the function graph
accord with the prospective controlling result, xLogicsoft also provides most intuitionist function of
simulation. You can get the moving result of the program through simulation of the function graph.

interface. The method and process of placement is as follows:
The method of placing function block is as follows: choose function block needed from the
workspace left of the program interface.
Operation Procedure:
1. Choose corresponding function group. “Constant”, “Basic”, ”Special” list and various blocks
can be selected .Refer to the function block instruction chapter 5 for detail instruction of
function blocks
2. Click the block you needed with left button of the mouse
3. Move the mouse to the proper place in the program interface, click with left button of the
mouse, then complete the placement of a block.
4. According to above operation, put all modules in program interface.

all function modules into the edit program interface.

Fig 7.10.1 Place block

5.9.2.2 Edit Property of Function Block

After put all function block in edit box, it’s necessary to setup property of every function block.
This is the most important step to write function block Program.
Operation Method:
1. In the function block Program interface, click some block twice with left button of the mouse,
or pitch on a block and press right button of the mouse, then an edit menu appears, and then
click “Properties…” of this menu. As shown in Fig 11.6:

2.You also can click the menu Edit-> Properties or Edit-> Properties(all blocks) to change the
settings of the block.
Property dialogue box, as shown in Fig 7.10.3, to setup each item of content according to what
you need, you also could click “Help” to observe the detail instruction.

Fig 7.10.3 property box

Note: Different block has different property setup, especially the property of special function
block. Please read chapter 5, the explanation to refer the detailed setup.

5.9.2.3 Setup link

After put all the blocks needed in protracting function graph, and set up properties as needed,
it’s necessary to set up link according to logic control relation and make it an integrated
function diagram.
Operation Method:

225
1. Pitch on shortcut key , when the mouse becomes the shape of a pen, it can be used to

link.

2. To do so, move the mouse pointer to a block input or output and press the left mouse button. Keep the
mouse button being pressed down and then drag the mouse pointer from your selected source terminal
to the target terminal. Now release the mouse button to anchor the connecting line to both terminals.
While the connecting line is being drawn, it is shown as a straight line between the first terminal and the
mouse pointer. Once it is anchored, it appears as a combination of horizontal and vertical lines, which can
be manipulated using the selection tool.

Fig. 7.10.4

xLogicsoft offers you a further option of connecting blocks when you right-click on the input or output of
a block. In the shortcut menu, click the Connect with block menu command. This calls a selection list
that contains all blocks available for your connection. Click on the relevant target block. xLogicsoft
Comfort then draws the connecting line. This method is especially useful for connecting a source to a
target block over a greater distance on the programming interface.

226
Fig. 7.10.5

Tips on connecting blocks


1. Move the mouse pointer over a block and briefly hold it in this position. The name of the block is shown.
The name of the block input appears when you move the mouse pointer onto the input.
2. To make it easier for you to interconnect blocks, a blue frame around the mouse pointer pops when it
is "captured" by a pin.
Rules for connecting blocks
The following rules apply to the connection of blocks:
1. You can connect a single input to multiple outputs.
2. You cannot connect multiple inputs to a single output.
You cannot interconnect I/O in the same path of a circuit program. Recursion is not permitted.
Interconnect a flag or output if necessary.
Special function blocks also have green "connectors". These do not represent connecting pins, but are
used instead for assigning the parameter settings.
Analog I/O cannot be connected to digital I/O.

5.9.2.4 Delete Function Block or Delete Link

When you put some needless block in program interface or link some default ones, you need to
delete them as follows:
1. Pitch on module or link to delete with mouse.
2. Press “Delete” in the keyboard, or click right button of the mouse, select option
“Delete” in the menu, then you can delete the module or link.

227
5.9.2.5 Change block index

In a program cycle, the block with little number will be run before the block with big number.
For example, The below program, the run sequence is B001,B002,B003, the Q1 cannot get
high.

If I change the B002 to B004, the Q1 will get high in first. The program run sequence is
B001,B003,B004.

You can change the block number with clicking the block by right key and select the “change
block index” option, then change to other block number.

salves is ON; I2 is ON in master, the corresponding Q2 in salves is ON;....IA is On in master, the
corresponding QA in salves is ON. If I1 is OFF in master, the corresponding Q1 in salves is OFF.......IA is
OFF in master, the corresponding QA in salves is OFF.

254
2. Read the Inputs I1--IA status of slave 1 to control the F11--F20 in master; Read the Inputs I1--IA
status of slave 2 to control the F21--F30.

3. Read the AF1 value of slave1 to be saved in the AF1 of master; Read AF1 value of slave2 to be saved
in AF2 of master.

(Note: In the program, you can put the input/output block in, but you cannot link the input pin of the
output)

Program in slave 2
(Note: In the program, you can put the input/output block in, but you cannot link the input pin of the
output)

Program in master
You need use the MODBUS BLOCK to realize the data transmission between master and slaves.

255

260
Notes:
1. When you do not use the MODBUS blocks in your program, then ELC-22DC-DA-R-N CPU shall work as
slave, in this case, you can use the SCADA or touch screen to communicate with ELC-22DC-DA-R-N via
the LAN port. However, if MODBUS BLOCKS had been used in your program, moreover, the
communication type (comm Type) is Ethernet, then ELC-22DC-DA-R-N can not work as slave through
Ethernet port

2. In your program, if the Modbus read/write blocks would be used, then you can use the
ELC-22DC-DA-R-N as the master CPU to communicate with the slave ( i.e. xlogic or the devices from
other supplier which supports the standard MODBUS TCP communication protocol.) in Modbus network

Chapter 7 Applications

In order to let users know the far going application field of xLogic, we present a set of application example.
Each instance includes the circuit program of its original solution and the compare of solution in which
xLogic has been applied.

You can find the following solution:


Dual-function switch
Automatic gate
Ventilation system
Industry door
Daylight lamps
Rain water pump

Note:
The application example of xLogic is available free of charge to our clients, but we can’t make any
promise, it is only to explain the general rule of using xLogic. It is possible that these instances can be
different from user’s specific application, so user should take all related responsibility of running those
instance systems, and we sincerely suggest user shall refer to relevant nation standard and installation
rules related to systems. Also, we have to point out that error is unavoidable, and we reserve the
according modification rights.

7.1 Dual-function switch

Requirements for stairway lighting systems


The basic requirements for a stairway lighting system are as follows:
 When someone is using the stairs, the stairway lights should be on.
 If no one is in the stairway, the lights should go out in order to save energy.

7.1.1 Standard solution


262
Up to now two methods were known to control such a lighting system:

 Pulse relay: When the lights are off, press any of the pushbuttons to switch on the lights. When the
lights are on, press any of the pushbuttons to switch off the lights again.

Disadvantage: People often forget to switch off the lights

 Automatic stairway light switch: Press any one of the pushbuttons to switch on the lights. The lights
switch off again automatically when a preset off delay time has expired.

Disadvantage: You can't keep the lights switched on over an extended period of time. The permanent on
switch, usually installed inside the stairway lighting timer unit, may be difficult or impossible to access.

The wiring is the same for both systems.

xLogicSoft solution

The xLogic system can replace the automatic stairway light switch or the pulse relay.
xLogic also lets you create a simple automatic stairway light switch via the stairway light switch SFB.
You can also implement both functions (off delay timer and pulse relay) in a single unit. What is more,
you can incorporate extra functions without making any alterations to the wiring. In our example

263
program, we have combined the advantages of both the current impulse relay and the automatic
stairway lighting timer as follows:

 Actuate the pushbutton The light is switched on and switched off again on
expiration of a predefined time.

 Hold the pushbutton down Switches on continuous lighting

 Press the pushbutton once more Switches off the lighting

7.1.2 The scheme of xLogic

The wiring of a lighting system with xLogic is the same as standard corridor or stairway lighting systems.
Only the automatic lighting timer/pulse relay is replaced.
xLogic lets you quickly and easily combine all those functions in a single dual-function switch SFB,
without additional wiring and expenditure.

Apply pulse relay of xLogic

When the input “I1” has a pulse, the output “Q1”will be on or off.

Automatic stairway lighting system

264
If input “I1”has a pulse, the output Q1will be on and keep 6 minutes, then be off.

Apply xLogic to realize multiple switches

When the input “I1” has a pulse, the output “Q1” will be on and not off until the period“TH”be over.
Keep the momentary switch holding down in period “TL”, the light will be on all the time.

Select special function

The following selection can be done as special function or saving energy sources:
 The lighting flicker before it gets off automatically.
 You can integrate different central control functions:
 Central control off
 Central control on(emergency button)
 Control all lighting or certain single circuitry by lighting control switch.
 To control by integrated timer.

7.2 Automatic gate

In the entrance of supermarket、public building、bank、hospital etc,automatic gate is often used.

The requirement of automatic gate

 If some people approach to gate, it will be opened automatically.


 The gate must remain open until there is no person on the passageway.
 If there is no person on the passageway, the gate must be off automatically in
a minute.

265
7.2.1 Standard solution

As long as the detector B1 or B2 detects someone approach, the switch K3 will be on and open the door.
If the two detectors don’t detect person in a short time, trigger K4 and close the door.

266
7.2.2 The scheme of xLogic

Required components:
 K1 open contactor
 K2 close contactor
 S1(break contact) close limit switch
 S2(break contact) open limit switch
 B1(make contact) outdoor infrared action detector
 B2(make contact) infrared action detector inside

xLogic function block circuit program:

Motion detector

267
During business hours, if someone enters store, the detector B1 will trigger electric motor to open the
door, vice versa.
At closing time, the detector B2 make electromotor keep running for an hour to make more time for
customer to leave.

Trigger electromotor for opening door

The output Q1 is switched on and triggers electromotor, when:


 Operate control switch I5(the door is open all the time)
 The detector indicates that somebody is approaching to the door.

 The door has not been opened entirely (I4 limit switch is not off.).

Trigger electromotor for closing door

 Operate control switch I6(the door is closed all the time )


 The detector indicates that nobody is approaching the door.
 The door had not been closed entirely (I3 limit switch is not off).

Buzzer

Connect the buzzer to output Q3.When the door is going to be closed; the buzzer
gives off sounds for a short time (1s in this example). To attach buzzer, need to
connect the following circuit program to output Q3.

268
7.3 Ventilation system

Requirements for a Ventilation system

A Ventilation system supplies fresh air into a room and exhausts the contaminated
air. Let us look at the following sample system:

 A room contains an extractor fan and a fresh-air fan.

 Each fan is monitored by means of a flow sensor.

 The pressure in the room may rise above the atmospheric pressure.

 The fresh-air fan may only be switched on if the flow sensor signals the safe
operational state of the extractor fan.

 A warning lamp indicates failure of one of the fans.

7.3.1 Standard solution

The control circuit diagram of Ventilation system formerly as follows:

269
The fans are monitored by means of flow sensors. If no air flow is registered after a short delay time has
expired, the system is switched off and an error message is generated, which can be acknowledged by
pressing the off button.
Fan monitoring requires an analyzer circuit with several switching devices, in addition to the flow sensors.
A single xLogic device can replace this analyzer circuit.

7.3.2 The scheme of xLogic

The circuit diagram of ventilation system:

Required components:

 K1 Main contactor

270
 K2 Main contactor

 S0(make contact) Off button

 S1(make contact) On button

 S2(break contact) Flow monitor

 S3(break contact) Flow monitor

 H1 Flashing lamp

 H2 Flashing lamp

xLogicSoft solution

The use of xLogic reduces the amount of switchgear. Thus, you save installation time and space in the
control cabinet. You may even be able to use as a smaller control cabinet.
With xLogic you can also switch off of the fans sequentially after the system is switched off.

The circuit in xLogicSoft

The system is switched on and off at the inputs I1 and I2. The fans are connected to outputs Q1 and Q2,
the flow sensors are connected to the inputs I3 and I4. Blocks B07 and B10 are used to set the watchdog
times after which the flow sensors should send a signal to the fault output Q3.

You can invert output Q3 to use output messages at Q4. Relay Q4 only drops out if main power is lost or
if there is a fault in the system. The output can then be used for a remote message.

271
7.4 Factory door

Requirements for a gate control system

In many cases a factory entrance is closed with roll gates. Those gates are only opened when vehicles
need to enter or leave the factory grounds. The gate is controlled by the porter.
 The sliding gate is opened and closed by means of a pushbutton control in the gatehouse. The porter
can monitor the gate operation.

 The roll gate is normally fully opened or it is closed. However, gate movements can always be
interrupted.

 A flashing light is activated five seconds before the gate moves, and while the gate is in motion.

 A safety pressure strip ensures that people are not injured and that no objects are trapped and
damaged when the gate is closing.

7.4.1 Standard solution

There are many different control systems for operating automatic gates. The OPEN and CLOSE buttons
initiate gate movements into the relevant direction, provided it is not already moving in the opposite
direction. Movement of the gate is terminated either by means of the STOP button or the relevant limit
switch.

7.4.2 The scheme of xLogic

The circuit diagram of industry gate:

273
Required components:
 K1 Main contactor

 K2 Main contactor

 S0 (break contact) Off button

 S1 (make contact) Open button

 S2 (make contact) Shutdown button

 S3 (break contact) Open position sensor

 S4 (break contact) Shutdown position sensor

 S5 (break contact) Safety bar

xLogicSoft solution

A xLogic circuit provides a further feature compared to standard controls: The actuation of a safety bar
interrupts the closing motion of the gate. Five seconds before the gate is opens or closes, a flashing light

274
is activated and signals the start of the movement. It continues flashing until the gate has stopped.

In contrast to standard solutions, xLogic offers an Rievtech and economic means of modifying the control
system.

7.5 Daylight lamp system

Requirements for lighting system:

 Different daylight lamp rows should be able to be switched on and off handily.
 If window at one side has enough light, the light will be switched off automatically via lightness

275
sensitivity switch.
 The light would be switched off automatically at 8:00 p.m.
 The light can be switched on and off manually at any time.

7.5.1 Standard solution

Lighting lamp can be operated by pulse relay controlled by button besides the door. Pulse relay can be
repositioned by means of timer and lightness sensitivity switch. Pulse relay may shorten pulse width of
“off command”.

Required component:
 Button S1—S4
 Daylight control switch B1
 Timer T1
 Pulse relay K1 and K2
 pulse switch K3—K6 able to be switched off collectively

Disadvantages of traditional solution:


 In order to realize function, it needs plenty of wiring.
 Vast mechanical parts will result in obvious abrasion and high maintenance costs.
 Modification function can cause much work.

276
Components:
 S1—S4(make contact) Momentary switch
 B1(make contact) Daylight control switch

277
Benefits:
While power consumption of load does not exceed output of switch’s voltage range, lamp can be directly
connected to xLogic main module; however, if power consumption of load exceeds output of switch’s
voltage range, then power contactor would be required.

 You can connect directly lightness sensitivity switch to the input of xLogic.

 Don’t need external timer, as this function has been integrated in xLogic.

 It can be installed in a small-sized cabinet, so quite space-saving.

 Less equipment

 Quite easier to modify lighting system

According to your demand, you may setup supplementary on/off timing (lamp can be switched off in
order at the end of day.

Easier to apply role of lightness sensitivity switch to lamp or already modified lamp row.

7.6 Rainwater pump

Nowadays besides drinkable water in family, rainwater applications is gradually increasing. In this way
much costs can be saved, also environment can be improved as well. The application of rain water as
follows:

278
 Wash clothes
 Water system in garden
 Potted plant water
 Wash car
 Scour W.C.
The following figure is to tell you how to run the rainwater application system:

The rain water is collected in the container and then pumped to service water ductwork through pumping
station. So you can apply rain water as drinkable water. If the rain water in the container dried up, this
system can supply drinkable water.

Requirements for the control system of service water pump

 It can provide service water all day, under the contingency instance, the control system must be
able to be switched over to drinkable water system automatically.
 When switching to drinkable water system, it can’t interlard rain water.
 If rain container has not enough rain water, service water pump can’t be on (rain water dry-up
protection).
