Omron Addressing

[QvixoteRoux]

Hi

I am going to practice with an Omron PLC CP1L but I am not sure how to address the I/O, also If I want to use an expansion unit, how will this work?


Thanks

The addresses are X.YY for inputs and output cards with X being card slot number and YY being input/output slot .00-.15.

ex. Prox switch on an input card is connected to the third card, position 4. The address would be 2.03

CP1L addressing is
1st input channel 0.00 to 0.11
2nd input channel 1.00 to 1.11
and so on
1st 0utput channel is 100.00 to 100.07
2nd output channel is 101.00 to 101.07
and so on
analogues are a bit trickier.

Aren't analogs usually the data register words DM1000-1100 or something like that? Oh and listen to this guy, I was referencing the CMP series. my bad!

Not sure, have not used them with a CP1L. I know if you use CompoNet analogue blocks they just use the next input and output words appropriate to the block you use. I always hand them on the end of the run and then do not have to try and figure out how many words they take up so that I know the next digital addresses - saves me a bit of time.

You need to download the W451, W462, and W471 manuals from Omron. All your questions will be answered by reading them.
Your specific question is answered in section 4-2 of the W471 manual.

Thanks guys, I had the task to label the wires in an omron with enough expansions to get 72 inputs and 80 outputs, I am more used to AB Micrologix series
