Description
1.1
MU110-6U is an extension module with 6 analog outputs.
The module provides following functions:
module control and parametrization via RS485 network
RS485 Network diagnostics
error and alarm signal generation
Slave in the RS485 network.
The module is to be configured using 'M110 Configurator' software via RS485-USB
interface adapter IC4 (not included). The latest version of the configuration software is
available for download on www.akytec.de.
1.2
The I/O modules of Mx110 series use the common standard RS485 for data exchange.
The serial interface RS485 enables communication via two-wired line in half-duplex
mode. The module supports the Modbus RTU and Modbus ASCII protocols with automat-
ic protocol detection The network consists of a Master device and can contain up to 32
Slave devices. The maximum length is 1200 m. The number of slave devices and net-
work length can be increased using RS485 interface repeater.
Separate devices are connected to a network according to linear (bus) topology. It means
that the line goes from the first device to the second one, from the second one to the third
one, etc. Star connections and spur lines are not allowed.
Line reflections always occur at the open bus ends (the first and the last node). The high-
er the chosen data transmission rate, the stronger they are. A terminating resistor is
needed to minimize reflections. Experience proves that the most efficient practice is to
use terminating resistors of 150 ohm.
The modules can be used as slave devices only. Master device can be PLC, PC with
SCADA software or control panel.
