5. In your Project Organizer, double-click TC_01.

ATTENTION: When a project is created with the CCAT generation function, the program name is Device name, which you
define.

6. In rung 2, either keep the default variables _IO_P2_AI_00 and _IO_P2_AI_02 or click each variable for other choices.

ATTENTION: When a project is created with the CCAT generation function, these terminal selections are blank.
You must select the analog input terminals via the pull-down menus.

Each temperature sensor input consists of two analog values, which are temperature feedback and sensor status.
These values must be paired so the sensor status properly represents the temperature feedback measurement.
Example:
_IO_Px_AI_00 measures the temperature value for input 1 and _IP_Px_AI_02 indicates sensor status.
Therefore:
_IO_Px_AI_00 must be paired with _IP_Px_AI_02 and
_IO_Px_AI_01 must be paired with _IP_Px_AI_03
Sensor status provides information such as sensor connectivity, and temperature over-range and under-range for their
respective temperature feedback.

6. In rung 2, _IO_P2_AI_00 and _IO_P2_AI_02 are the default variables for the feedback temperature value and
sensor status to the temperature control function block.
Keep the default settings or click each variable for other choices.

ATTENTION: When a project is created with the CCAT generation function, these terminal selections are blank.
You must select the analog input terminals via the pull-down menus.

Each temperature sensor input consists of two analog values, which are temperature feedback and sensor status.
These values must be paired so the sensor status properly represents the temperature feedback measurement.
Example:
_IO_Px_AI_00 measures the temperature value for input 1 and _IP_Px_AI_02 indicates sensor status.
Therefore:
_IO_Px_AI_00 must be paired with _IP_Px_AI_02 and
_IO_Px_AI_01 must be paired with _IP_Px_AI_03
Sensor status provides information such as sensor connectivity, and temperature over-range and under-range for their
respective temperature feedback.

Wiring Diagram for 2080-TC2 Thermocouple

The 2080-TC2 thermocouple requires a cold junction compensation (CJC) sensor to function. This sensor is a non-
polarized, passive negative temperature co-efficient thermistor (EPCOS B57869S0502F140). It is readily available
through most third-party vendors. For further information, refer to the Micro800 Plug-in Modules User Manual,
publication 2080-UM004.

Follow these steps to connect the CJC sensor.

1. Connect the thermocouples to channels 0 and 1.

2. Connect and screw the thermistor to terminals A3 and B3 (see 3a in Figure 3).
3. Once fitted, bend the black bead of the thermistor so it makes a secure contact with the screw head of terminal A2
(see 3b in Figure 3).

 PID Temperature Control User-defined Function Blocks Appendix A

RA_IPID_TEMPCONTROLLER User-defined Function Block (UDFB) Operation

This UDFB is designed to generate an output after the function block (FB) considers the set point (set temperature) and
process value (current temperature). The output drives an internal mechanism to provide a PWM output and/or analog
output (PLC digital and analog output).

This is an error checking function in the UDFB to verify that setting and configuration are done properly. Otherwise, there
is no output and the error bits become TRUE. Therefore, it is important that all error status (PWM_Err and
TCmodeErr) is off (set to FALSE). If any are TRUE, check if that fault has been configured properly.

EXAMPLE TCmodeErr becomes TRUE when the mode input is invalidcontrol output is disabled and control resumes only when the error
is cleared.

There are five basic parameters that must be configured properly for the UDFB to generate an output:
Set point
Temperature Display mode
Controller Operation mode
Heating or Cooling mode
Run or Stop mode

Once these five basic parameters have been defined and with a temperature feedback, the UDBF generates an output to
control the system.
