Notes on Safe Use of POD
In this manual, you will find various notes categorized under the following levels with the signal words “DANGER,”
and “CAUTION.”
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or
DANGER serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or
CAUTION moderate injury and could cause property damage.
Note that there is a possibility that the item listed with CAUTION may have serious ramifications.
DANGER
• Never use the input function of POD for operations that may threaten human life or damage the system,
such as switches to be used in case of emergency. Please design the system so that it can cope with
malfunction of a touch switch. A malfunction of the touch switch will result in machine accident or damage.
• Turn off the power supply when you set up the unit, connect cables or perform maintenance and inspection.
Otherwise, electrical shock or damage may occur.
• Never touch any terminals while the power is on. Otherwise, electric shock may occur.
• You must put a cover on the terminals on the unit when you turn the power on and operate the unit. Without
the terminal cover in place, electric shock may occur.
• The liquid crystal in the LCD panel is a hazardous substance. If the LCD panel is damaged, never swallow
the leaked liquid crystal. If the liquid crystal spills on your skin or clothing, use soap and wash off thoroughly.
• For POD using a lithium battery, never disassemble, recharge, deform by pressure, short-circuit, nor reverse
the polarity of the battery, and never dispose of the battery in fire. Failure to follow these conditions will lead
to explosion or ignition.
• For POD using a lithium battery, never use a battery that is deformed, leaks, or shows any other signs of
abnormality. Failure to follow these conditions will lead to explosion or ignition.
CAUTION
• Check the appearance of the unit when it is unpacked. Do not use the unit if any damage or deformation is
found. Failure to do so may lead to fire, damage or malfunction.
• For use in a facility or for a system related to nuclear energy, aerospace, medical, traffic equipment, or
mobile installations, please consult your local distributor.
• Operate (or store) POD under the conditions indicated in this manual and related manuals. Failure to do so
could cause fire, malfunction, physical damage or deterioration.
• Understand the following environmental limits for use and storage of POD. Otherwise, fire or damage to the
unit may result.
- Avoid locations where there is a possibility that water, corrosive gas, flammable gas, solvents, grinding
fluids or cutting oil can come into contact with the unit.
- Avoid high temperature, high humidity, and outside weather conditions, such as wind, rain or direct
sunlight.
- Avoid locations where excessive dust, salt, and metallic particles are present.
- Avoid installing the unit in a location where vibration or physical shock may be transmitted.
• Equipment must be correctly mounted so that the main terminal of POD will not be touched inadvertently.
Otherwise, an accident or electric shock may occur.
• Tighten the fixtures of the POD with a torque in the specified range. Excessive tightening may distort the
panel surface. Loose tightening may cause POD to come off, malfunction or be short-circuited.
• Check periodically that terminal screws on the power supply terminal block and fixtures are firmly tightened.
Loosened screws may result in fire or malfunction.
• Tighten terminal screws on the power supply terminal block equally to a torque of 0.5 N•m. Improper
tightening of screws may result in fire, malfunction, or trouble.
• POD has a glass screen. Do not drop or give physical shock to the unit. Otherwise, the screen may be
damaged.
• Connect the cables correctly to the terminals of POD in accordance with the specified voltage and wattage.
Over-voltage, over-wattage or incorrect cable connection could cause fire, malfunction or damage to the
unit.
• Be sure to establish a ground of POD. Ground FG terminal which must be used for the unit. Otherwise,
electric shock or a fire may occur.
• Prevent any conductive particles from entering into POD. Failure to do so may lead to fire, damage or
malfunction.
• After wiring is finished, remove the paper used as a dust cover before starting to operate POD. Operation
with the cover attached may result in accident, fire, malfunction, or trouble.
• Do not attempt to repair POD at your site. Ask us or the designated contractor for repair.
• Do not disassemble or modify POD. Otherwise, it may cause a malfunction.
• We are not responsible for any damages resulting from repair, overhaul or modification of POD that was
performed by an unauthorized person.
• Do not use a sharp-pointed tool when pressing a touch switch. Doing so may damage the screen.
• Only experts are authorized to set up the unit, connect the cables or perform maintenance and inspection.
• For POD using a lithium battery, handle the battery with care. The combustible materials such as lithium or
organic solvent contained in the battery may generate heat, explode, or catch fire, resulting in personal injury
or fire. Read related manuals carefully and handle the lithium battery correctly as instructed.
• When using a POD that has analog switch resolution with resistance film, do not press two or more points on
the screen at the same time. If there is a switch between the two pressed points, it may be activated.
• Take safety precautions during such operations as setting change during running, forced output, start, and
stop. Any misoperation may cause unexpected machine motions, resulting in machine accident or damage.
• In facilities where a failure of POD could lead to accident threatening human life or other serious damage, be
sure that the facilities are equipped with adequate safeguards.
• At the time of disposal, POD must be treated as industrial waste.
• Before touching POD, discharge static electricity from your body by touching grounded metal. Excessive
static electricity may cause malfunction or trouble.
[General Notes]
• Never bundle control cables and input/output cables with high-voltage and large-current carrying cables such
as power supply cables. Keep these cables at least 200 mm away from the high-voltage and large-current
carrying cables. Otherwise, malfunction may occur due to noise.
• When using POD in an environment where a source of high-frequency noise is present, it is recommended that
the FG shielded cable (communication cable) be grounded at its ends. However, the cable may be grounded
only at one end if this is necessary due to unstable communication conditions or for any other reason.
• Plug connectors or sockets of POD in the correct orientation. Otherwise, it may cause a malfunction.
• Do not use thinners for cleaning because they may discolor the POD surface. Use alcohol or benzine
commercially available.
• If a data receive error occurs when POD and the counterpart (PLC, temperature controller, etc.) are started at
the same time, read the manual for the counterpart unit and handle the error correctly.
• Avoid discharging static electricity on the mounting panel of the POD. Static charges can damage the unit and
cause malfunctions. Otherwise, malfunction may occur due to noise.
• Avoid prolonged display of any fixed pattern. Due to the characteristics of the liquid crystal display, an
afterimage may occur. If a prolonged display of a fixed pattern is expected, use the auto OFF function of the
backlight.

1. Before Connecting to PLC
Types of Connection
There are four types of connection between POD(s) and PLC(s).
1 : 1 Connection
Outline
One set of the POD is connected to one PLC (1 : 1 connection).
The wiring diagrams and the description of settings for connection to PLCs in 1 : 1 connections can be
found from Chapter 2 onward.
POD PLC
CN1
RS-232C or RS-422 (RS-485)
The host link unit of the PLC or the CPU port is used and the POD (master station) establishes
communications according to the protocol of the PLC. Consequently, it is not necessary to have the
dedicated communication program on the PLC (slave station). The POD reads the PLC memory for
screen display. It is also possible to write switch data or numerical data entered through the keypad
directly to the PLC memory.

For more information, refer to “Appendix 4, 1 : n Connection (Multi-drop).”
n : 1 Connection (Multi-link 2)
Outline
• One PLC is connected to a maximum of four PODs.
• An original network is created where the POD (Local Port 1) that is directly connected to the PLC
is the master station, and other three PODs are slave stations. Only the master station makes
communications directly with the PLC, and the slave stations make communications with the PLC
via the master station.

PLC
• Communications between the POD master station and the PLC depend on the communication
speed set on the PLC. The maximum available speed for the POD is 115 kbps, which is higher
than the one available with multi-link connection described in “n : 1 Connection (Multi-link)” (page
1-4).
• This multi-link 2 connection is available with almost all the PLC models that support 1 : 1
connection (refer to the “Appendix”).
The connection between the master station and the PLC is the same as the one for 1 : 1
connection.
• Use the RS-485 2-wire connection between stations of the POD. Please use our multi-link 2
master cable (UG00C-H03) for connection between the master station (Local Port 1) and the slave
station (Local Port 2).
• In the following cases, multi-link 2 connection is not available.
1. A communication interface unit (example: OPCN-1, T-LINK, Ethernet, etc.) is used.
2. The UG20 Series (master or slave station) is used for the temperature control network or
PLC2Way function.
• The UG30 and UG20 Series can be used together. The UG20 Series can be the master station.
(However, when UG221/UG220 is the master station, the slave station must be UG221/UG220.
Also, depending on the hardware version of the UG20 Series, multi-link 2 connection may not be
supported. Refer to the User’s Manual <UG20 Series Hardware> (FEH352).)

UG00S-CW Setting (1 : 1 Connection)

For serial communications, the following settings on the UG00S-CW editor are required.
The settings in the [Select PLC Type] and [Comm. Parameter] dialogs are shown on the Main Menu
screen of the POD. (For more information, refer to “Chapter 6, POD Operations” in User’s Manual
<UG30 Series Hardware> (FEH377).)
PLC Selection
Select the PLC that is connected.
• Setting Procedure
[System Setting] → [PLC Type] → [Select PLC Type] dialog
Communication Parameter Setting

The communication parameter setting is essential for successful communications between the POD
↔ PLC. Check the communication parameter setting on the PLC before making the setting on POD.
[System Setting] → [Comm. Parameter] → [Comm. Parameter] dialog
• Setting Items
[Connection] (1 : 1 / 1 : n / Multi-Link / Multi-Link 2)
Select the type of connection between the POD and the PLC. There are four types available.
Depending on the selected type, the setting items in the [Comm. Parameter] dialog or those
for the memory vary.

Choose any of the parity options for communication.
[Send Delay Time] (0 to 255) (Unit: ×1 msec)
Set a time delay in sending the next command to the PLC
PLC after receipt of a response from the PLC.
POD
Normally use the default setting.
Send delay
time “t”
Choose the action to be taken against communication errors.

[Comm. Err. Handling]
Set error handling routine in the case that a communication error between the POD and
the PLC occurs.
[Stop] If any communication error has arisen, the communications are stopped.
When restoring, use the Retry switch (found on the error screen of the
POD).
[Continuous] If any communication error has arisen, it is indicated at the top left corner
on the screen. The POD conducts polling of the PLC, and if OK, the error
state is automatically reset.
Supplemental Information:
Polling
“Polling” means to constantly monitor and check the state of the other station.
[Time-out Time] (0 to 999) (Unit: ×10 msec)

Specify a time for monitoring the receiving of a response from the PLC. If no response is
received within the specified time, a retrial is attempted.
[Retrials] (1 to 255)
Specify the number of retrial times. When the problem persists even after as many retrials
as specified, the system will start the error handling routine.
[Text Process] 15 0
[LSB → MSB]
(LSB → MSB / MSB → LSB) MSB LSB
When processing characters, choose 2nd byte 1st byte
either option for arranging 1st/2nd bytes 15 0

For more information, refer to “System Memory” (page 1-12).
[ Read/Write Area UG200 Compatible]
When converting screen data files created on UG200 into those of the UG30/20 Series, this
option is automatically checked.
When this option is checked, UG200 compatibility is supported by securing 2 words each for
[Read Area] and [Write Area] in the same format as UG200. For more information, refer to the
User’s Manual <UG200 Function> (FEH295).
[ Use Ethernet]
When using Ethernet communications, check this option.
For details, refer to “9. Ethernet” in “Chapter 5, Connections” in the separate Use’s Manual
<UG30 Series Hardware> (FEH377).
System Memory
[Read Area] and [Write Area] must be secured for communications between the POD and the PLC.

Screen number
Use example: To specify a screen number from the PLC:

When “D0” is set for [Read Area], the screen number is written in “D2” of the PLC.
Problem example: The screen display does not change when a screen number is specified from
the PLC.
If the same number as the one specified for “n + 2” is already contained in this memory
address, the screen display does not change even if it is specified again.
For example, if screen No. 5 is specified from the PLC and it was once changed to screen No.
2 → No. 0 by internal switches, normally it cannot be returned to the former screen No. 5 that
was specified by an external command, because the external screen command number (5)
remains the same as before in the memory address (“D2” in the read area) for the screen
number command. In such a case, it is possible to forcibly switch the screen to the screen
number contained in “D2” in the read area at the leading edge [0 → 1] of bit 14 of the memory
address for the screen status command (“D1” in the read area).

According to our noise tests, the attachment of a ferrite core improves noise voltage by 650 to 900 V and aids in
preventing communication errors.
• When connecting to the A/QnA series CPU directly, attach a ferrite core to the communication cable between
the POD and A/QnA series CPU to avoid noise problems.
Ferrite core
POD A/QnA series

CPU
• Recommended ferrite core type

TDK's ZCAT2032-0930 (ID: 8 mm, OD: 20 mm)
• In consideration of such noise problems, it is recommended that the standard type link unit be used when the
cable length of 15 m or longer is required.

• When the POD is connected to the standard type link unit on the CPU that is connected to the data
link system or network system, the POD can have access to CPUs on NET II (/B) and NET/10. In
this case, select “A Link + Net10” for [PLC Type] on the editor.
• When the POD has access to the CPU on NET II (/B) or NET/10:
- With NET II (/B), the POD can only have access to CPUs in the network (No. 1 in the
illustration below) of the CPU equipped with the standard type link unit that is connected to the
POD.
(Available CPU No. 0 to 30)
- With NET/10, the POD can have access to CPUs in the network (No. 1 in the illustration
below) of the CPU equipped with the standard type link unit that is connected to the POD as
well as those in the other networks (Nos. 2 and 3 in the illustration below) that are connected.

• When the POD reads from or writes to the CPU (“1-1” in the above illustration) equipped with the
standard type link unit:
Set “31” for [CPU No.] for memory setting on the editor.
The response time is the same as that with 1 : 1 connection between the POD and the PLC.
When the POD reads from or writes to the CPU memory of the CPU number other than “31”:
Transient transmission is performed and the response time is not fast. Please understand
beforehand.
• To have access to the PLC in the other network on NET/10, specify the network number in the
OPEN macro for the screen on the editor.
This macro command should be [OUT_ENQ] of system call [SYS]. It is not possible to have
access to the CPU on the different network from the same screen.

“n + 0” and “n + 1” are fixed to “0” and “2”, respectively.

“n + 2” (system code) should be: 1: NET/10 2: NET II (/B)
For “n + 3” (network number), set “0” when NET II (/B) is selected for “n + 2” (system code) or
the network number to be accessed when NET/10 is selected.
Do not use this macro for any purpose other than OPEN macro for a screen. Doing so triggers
network switching at the time of macro execution, resulting in a communication error.

PLC2Way
• The “PLC2Way” function is an original network function where one POD can be connected to two
PLCs. Even if the manufacturers of these PLCs are not the same, they can be connected to one
POD.
• When the POD or a UG230 equipped with UG230A-DCL is used, connect the first PLC to the CN1
connector. When a UG230 is used, connect the first PLC to MJ2. Connect the second PLC to the
MJ port (to MJ1 when a UG230 is used).

• With the PLC2Way function, it is possible to communicate with PLCs without special program in
the same way as 1 : 1 connection.
Two PLCs that are connected to the POD are controlled at the same time, and memory read/write
operations are available with these two PLCs.
• When the PLC2Way function is used, connection at the MJ port is possible via RS-232C or
RS-485 (2-wire connection).
With RS-232C, one PLC can be connected; with RS-485, a maximum of 31 PLCs can be
connected.

• Constant reading/sampling of PLC data connected to the PLC2Way

When read/write memory addresses are preset on the temperature control network/PLC2Way
table, background data transfering is performed at regular intervals. It is also possible to save the
read data in the POD internal buffer, SRAM or CF card.
• Data transfer between PLCs
The PLC memory data can be transferred to another PLC in blocks using a macro command.
For the description of 1 : 1 connection, refer to “Chapter 1.”

Hereunder the PLC connection at the MJ port and settings required for PLC2Way connection are
described.
Limitations on Connection at PLC2Way

There are some limitations on the connection at the MJ port.
1. It is not possible to make a selection for text processing in the communication parameter setting.
Text processing: Fixed to [LSB → MSB].
2. Even if a communication error occurs, it is not possible to stop communications.
Error codes are stored in $s730 to 761 for each station.
3. Connections using both the PLC2Way and multi-link 2 functions are possible at the same time
when the UG30 Series system program is version 1.010 (for UG20 Series: version 1.290) or later
and the UG00S-CW editor is version 3.0.0.0 or later.
PLCs Compatible with PLC2Way Connection at MJ Port
• When connecting the POD to the PLC at the MJ port using PLC2Way function, use the RS-232C
or RS-485 (RS-422) 2-wire connection. The PLC that allows RS-485 (RS-422) (4-wire) connection
only cannot be connected directly.
• PLCs compatible with PLC2Way connection at MJ port as of March, 2005 are shown below.

Fig. 2
When the temperature control network/PLC2Way table is not used (Fig. 1), the POD does not
communicate with the PLC while it is communicating with the PLC2.
When the temperature control network/PLC2Way table is used (Fig. 2), the POD communicates with
the PLC and the PLC2 at the same time.
As a result, the POD can communicate with the PLC2 without reducing the processing capacity for
communication with the PLC.
When the temperature control network/PLC2Way table is used:

If periodical reading/writing or synchronized reading/writing based on the temperature control
network/PLC2Way table takes place while the POD is accessing the PLC2 memory via a macro
command, the progress of the macro execution may be delayed. To avoid this, it is possible to
temporarily stop reading from/writing into the PLC2 memory using the system memory addresses
($s762 and 764). For more information, refer to page App1-32.
Notes on Screen Data Transfer
Temperature Control/PLC2 Program

When using the temperature control network/PLC2Way communications, it is necessary to transfer the
temperature control/PLC2 program to the POD.
When the temperature control network/PLC2Way setting has been made, the program is automatically
transferred to the POD together with screen data.
When [ Temp./PLC2] is selected in the [Transfer] dialog, only the temperature control/PLC2
program can be transferred to the POD.
When the Main Menu screen is displayed after transferring screen data, the [Extension] switch
appears.
If the [Extension] switch does not appear, transfer font data.
Pressing the switch brings up the “Extension Program Info.” screen where the temperature
control/PLC2Way driver setting and temperature control network/PLC2way setting can be reviewed.
For details, refer to “Chapter 6, POD Operations” in the User’s Manual <UG30 Series Hardware>
(FEH377) and <UG230 Series Hardware> (FEH381).

PLC
• Communications between the UG30 master station and the PLC depend on the communication
speed set on the PLC. The maximum available speed for the UG30 is 115 kbps, which is higher
than the one available with multi-link connection described in “Appendix 3, n : 1 Connection
(Multi-link).”
App2-2 Appendix 2 n : 1 Connection (Multi-link 2)
• This multi-link 2 connection is available with almost all the PLC models that support 1 : 1
connection (refer to the “Appendix”).
(The connection between the master station and the PLC is the same as the one for 1 : 1
connection.)
• Use the RS-485 2-wire connection between stations of the UG30. Please use our multi-link 2
master cable (UG00C-H03) for connection between the master station (local port 1) and the slave
station (local port 2).
• In the following cases, multi-link 2 connection is not available.
1. A communication interface unit (example: T-Link, OPCN-1, Ethernet, etc) is used.
2. The UG20 series (master or slave station) is used for the temperature control network or
PLC2Way function.
• The UG30 and UG20 Series can be used together. The UG20 Series can be the master station.
(However, when UG221/UG220 is the master station, the slave station must be UG221/UG220.
Also, depending on the hardware version of the UG20 Series, multi-link 2 connection may not be
supported. Refer to the User’s Manual <UG20 Hardware> (FEH352).)

(Refer to “Chapter 2” to “Chapter 34.”)
(b)(c) Connection between master station ↔ UG30 slave station

The connecting port for the UG30 Series master station depends on the selection for
[Multi-Link] (either [Modular Jack 1] or [Modular Jack 2]) on the UG00S-CW editor. Selection
of [Modular Jack 2] is recommended. ([Editor Port] is set as default for [Modular Jack 1].)
The connecting port of the UG30 Series slave station should be CN1. It is recommended that
CN1 be equipped with a terminal converter “UG00P-TC” (set to 2-wire connection).
The multi-link 2 master cable (b) (UG00C-H03) is 3 m long.
If the distance (c) between the UG30 Series master station and the UG30 Series slave station
is longer than 3 m, use a terminal block and connect the cables.
(d)(e) Connection between UG30 slave station ↔ UG30 slave station

Use the RS-485 2-wire connection.
It is recommended that CN1 be equipped with a terminal converter “UG00P-TC” (set to 2-wire
connection).
(b)(c)(d)(e) The maximum length between UG30 Series should be 500 m.
* To avoid line-noise problems, connect one terminal only so that the shielded frame ground of each
cable will not be connected between the UG30 Series.
The shielded frame ground of UG00C-H03 must be connected to the UG30 Series master station.
* When the terminal converter “UG00P-TC” is not used, install jumpers between +RD/+SD and
−RD/−SD.

Notes on Communication Errors
Processing for PLC Failure

• If a communication error/timeout is detected during communications with a PLC, the PLC failure
information is stored in internal system memory addresses $s 114 to 129 of the POD. No further
communication with the PLC is attempted until a macro command is executed or the display
screen changes.
If a communication error/timeout is detected while accessing the [Read Area], the error is
processed in the same manner as for 1 : 1 connection.
Internal system memory
The internal system memory is the one for the POD system.
• Using the macro command RECONNECT, communications can be resumed without the display
screen change.
[RECONNECT]
In the case of a multi-drop connection, communication with the port (specified with “F0”) that
caused the failure is resumed once.
Usable Devices
Internal Indirect
PLC Memory Constant Memory Card
Memory Designation

RECONNECT F0
0 to 255 Resumes communication with the desired port.

F0
−1 Resumes communication with all ports.
When communication is resumed, the failure information is cleared from the system memory
($s114 to 129).
With Internal Memory Set For [Read Area], [Write Area], and [Calendar]
• In the case that the internal memory is set for [Read Area], [Write Area] and [Calendar], no initial
connection check is performed, and calendar information is read when the POD establishes
communications with the PLC for the first time. A communication error does not occur on the POD
if a timeout is detected while accessing to the PLC.

* To connect to the intra-company network, consult with the network administrator.
IP Address
This is an address that is used for recognizing each node on the Ethernet and should be unique.
The IP address is 32-bit data which consists of the network address and the host address and can be classified
into A to C depending on the network size.
Class A Network
0 address (7) Host address (24)
Class B
10 Network address (14) Host address (16)
Class C
110 Network address (14) Host address (8)
Notation
A string of 32-bit data is divided into four, and each segment delimited with a period is in decimal notation.
Example: The IP address in class C shown below is represented as “192.128.1.50.”
11000000 10000000 00000001 00110010
Unusable IP addresses:
• “0” is specified for one byte at the extreme left. Example: 0.x.x.x
• “127” is specified for one byte at the extreme left (loop back address). Example: 127.x.x.x
• “224” or more is specified for one byte at the extreme left (for multi-cast or experiment). Example: 224.x.x.x
• The host address consists of only “0” or “255” (broadcast address). Example: 128.0.255.255, 192.168.1.0
[Send Timeout]
Set the time-out time for the POD to send a EREAD/EWRITE command on the Ethernet.
[Port No.] (256 to 65535) (Default: 10000)

The port number may be fixed depending on the PLC model. For more information, refer to “(B)
Connecting to the PLC on the Ethernet” (page App5-13) or the individual PLC manuals.
Port No.
Multiple applications are running on each node, and communications are carried out for each application
between the nodes. Consequently, it is necessary to have a means to identify the application that data should
be transferred to. The port number works as this identifier.
Each port number is 16-bit data (from 0 to 65535). However, since some numbers are already used, the
setting range available with UG30 (high-performance type) or UG230 is from 256 to 65535. It is recommended
to set a greater number. Note that “8001” is allocated to the port for screen data transfer from the editor. Use
a number other than “8001.”
[Select Port]
Select either AUI or 10BASE-T. When connecting to the 10BASE-T connector (LAN) of UG30
(high-performance type) or UG230 + UG230A-DCL, select [10BASE-T].
Select either [10BASE-T] or [AUI] when UG03I-E(E2) is mounted.
[Memory Protect]
Attach a check mark ( ) when write-protecting the internal memory or memory card.
[Default Gateway]
Attach a check mark ( ) when setting the default gateway.
Default Gateway
A gateway and a router are used for communicating between different networks.
The IP address of the gateway (router) should be set to communicate with the node(s) on other network.
[Sub Net Mask]

Attach a check mark ( ) when setting the subnet mask.
When this option is checked, it is set to [255.255.255.0].
Subnet Mask
A subnet mask is used for dividing one network address into multiple networks (subnet).
The subnet is assigned by specifying a part of the host address in the IP address as a subnet address.
Class B 10 Network address (14) Host address (16)
255. 255. 255. 0

Subnet mask 11111111 11111111 11111111 00000000

Addresses
• $s514, 515
These addresses are related to macro commands [SEND], [EREAD] and [EWRITE].
$s514: Sets the executing status of the macro.

In the case of “0,” the next step of the macro is executed without waiting for the
completion of the command when a command request is given to the Ethernet.
In the case of other than “0,” the wait status continues until the command completes, and
then the next step of the macro is executed.
* If the same port is accessed for execution of commands on one macro sheet, set a value other
than “0.” If “0” is set, the macro command executed next is deleted.
$s515: Stores the result of macro execution. An error occurs if a value other than “0” is stored.
For more information, refer to the error codes (page App5-44).
However, when $s514 is “0,” the data before the command request is stored.
• $s518
Stores the current status of the Ethernet. An error occurs if a value other than “0” is stored.
For more information, refer to the error codes (page App5-43).
• $s520 to 619

As shown in the diagram above, when a general-purpose computer communicates with the POD, the
general-purpose computer acts as the host and the POD acts as the slave.
Switch, lamp, data display, etc., are allocated within the internal user memory ($u). When a screen
number is specified from the host, a write action takes place to the internal memory address specified
for the screen, and the specified screen is then displayed on the POD.
When a screen is changed internally by a switch, etc., the changed screen number is read, and written
in the memory specified for the screen.

When the switch output memory is set at an address location from 80 to 95 in the system
memory ($s) of internal memory, the switch number is written on lower 8 bits.
The relationship between the switch number and the bit is shown in the following table. (Refer
to page App6-36.)
n + 3, n + 4 (SW0/SW1)
15 14 13 12 11 10 09 08 07 06 05 04 03 02 01 00

The same contents as n + 0 and n + 1 of the [Info. Output Memory] that is set in the entry
mode are written. Write operation occurs when the [ENTER] key is pressed in the entry mode.
When the entry selection has changed, write operation will not occur.
When (n + 5) entry information 0 is read by the host, writing completed bit (bit 15) is reset.
Data is written in the backup (escape) area before it is read. (Refer to page App6-15.)
- n + 7 (ENT2) entry information 2
The entry mode window number where a write operation was executed is written.
The relationship between the window number and base and the window number and overlap
is shown in the following table.
Window No. Contents

0 Base entry mode
1 Overlap 0 entry mode
* In case of using the Table Data Display(s) as the entry targets of the Entry mode
The line number and the column number will be output to the address n + 1 and the block
number to the address n + 2 of the “Info. Output Memory,” when the bit No.12 of
“Command Memory” in the [Entry] dialog is ON [1].
In only this case, therefore, the window number cannot be referred because the block
number is output to the address n + 7 (ENT2) of the write area.
Please take note of this.
- n + 8 (GREPNS) global response
A response to a global command is written. The contents of a response are shown in the
following table.

n+6 Day of the week (BCD 0 to 6)
Calendar settings are performed in the read area under [RCVDAT (n + 0)] at the leading edge of
bit 11.
The POD calendar uses the CPU clock. When precise time is necessary, set the calendar once a
day. (Time loss: approximately 90 seconds a month.)
• Read Clear Top Address (Set user memory within internal memory.)
The read clear area is the starting area from which the POD clears words that were previously
read. Due to the fact that it is cleared to “0,” once this area is read, the data remains at “0” even if
you attempt to read again when a read response error occurs. Set the area’s top address number.
• Read Clear Words

Set the number of words that will be used for clearing the read area.
• Read Clear Escape (Backup) Address
Set the top address for the read clear backup area. The area size will be the same as the
previously described read clear area.
The number of words written in the read clear backup area are the same as the number specified
for the read clear area.
- Read Clear and Read Clear Backup Action

The action that occurs when a read command from the host tries to access to the read clear
area is shown in the following diagram.

• Default Initial Screen

Set the number of the screen to be displayed when power to the POD is turned on.
• Interrupt
There are five interrupt settings:
Switch ON interrupt
Switch OFF interrupt
Keypad interrupt
Screen interrupt
Macro: OUT_ENQ
For details, refer to page App6-34.
• Execute Flow Control (disabled for UG230)
Check the [Execute Flow Control] when interrupt from POD is needed to be prohibited. (e.g. when
the host cannot receive interrupt data)
The action when you check the [Execute Flow Control] is shown below.
- When CS (pin 4) on POD side is ON:
Interruption is output.
- When CS (pin 4) on POD side is OFF:
Interruption is not output.
When CS is ON, interruption information stored by then is output in succession.
(Interruption information for 3 times can be stored at the most.)
• Not remain the output signal OFF
This setting is available only for 1 : 1 communication with RS422 using four-wire.
Normally, POD uses the same cables to send or receive data. For this reason, send output
remains OFF (High impedance) except for sending signals from POD.
However, depending on the host specifications, send output OFF operation from the POD is not
required. In this case, you must check [ Not remain the output signal OFF].
• Execute 2 Wire Control
This setting is available only for 1 : 1 communication with RS-422 using 2-wire.
In such a case, however, interrupt is not usable.
• Connection
Set the connection method for the POD and host.
1 : 1 ........... There is one POD machine and one host.
1 : n ........... Multiple POD units are connected to one host.
• Local Station Number
When multiple POD machines are connected to one host, set a station number for each POD.

Data Items for Protocols

• Transmission control code
The transmission control codes are shown in the table below.
Signal Name Code (Hexadecimal) Contents
STX 02H Start of transmission block
ETX 03H End of transmission block
ENQ 05H Interrupt
ACK 06H Positive acknowledge
CR 0DH Carriage return
DLE 10H Change contents within a block
NAK 15H Negative acknowledge
LF 0AH Line feed
• Port number
Port numbers are used so that the host computer can identify each POD for access. The data
range is from 00H to 1FH (0 to 31) and is converted into two-digit ASCII code (HEX) before use.
The port number of the POD should be set on the UG00S-CW editor.
• Sum check code (SUM)
Data is added up (SUM), and the lower one byte (8 bits) of the sum is converted into the 2-digit
ASCII code (hexadecimal). A sum check code is shown below.
Example: Sum check will be as is shown below when data is transmitted as: command [WM]
(data writing), address [05AD] (1453), and memory data [OF2A] (3882) in
transmission mode [w/o CR/LF, w/ sum check].
STX Command DLE Address Count Memory data ETX SUM
"W" "M" "0" "5" "A" "D" "0" "0" "0" "1" "0" "F" "2" "A" "4" "D"
02H 57H 4DH 10H 30H 35H 41H 44H 30H 30H 30H 31H 30H 46H 32H 41H 03H 34H 44H
02H + 57H + 4DH + 10H + 30H + 35H + 41H + 44H + 30H + 30H + 30H + 31H
+ 30H + 46H + 32H + 41H + 03H = 4DH
However, in the case of an interrupt, data from ENQ to ETX is subject to a sum check.
• Error code
An error code is sent along with an NAK response.
An error code is transmitted as a two-digit ASCII code (HEX). For more information, refer to page
App6-37.
Response Time and BUSY

Response time varies depending on the type of command.
• RM / RI / RC
These commands immediately send a response once receipt of data is complete.
No NAK [01] (BUSY) signal is given.
Host side
(command)
POD
(Response)
T = 10 msec or less
• WM / TR / WI / WC
Once receipt of data is complete, these commands first check the display status. If the display
status is found to be complete, a response is sent and a command is executed.
If the status is BUSY and the display is completed within the time set in [Busy Time], a response is
sent.
If the display is not completed within the specified time, an NAK [01] (BUSY) signal is sent. In this
case, it is necessary to retransmit the command.
When [Busy Time] is set as [0], the machine waits until the display is complete, and then a
response is transmitted after a command is executed.

Read CHR Command

When memory contents are in the form of characters when data is read, 1 character (1 byte) is
converted into 2-byte ASCII code and transmitted. However, when this command is used, contents
are not converted before transmission, and thus, the transmission time is decreased by approximately
1/2.

Write CHR Command

When memory contents are in the form of characters, it is necessary to use a write command to
convert 1 character (1 byte) into 2 byte ASCII code and then transmit. However, with this command
contents are transmitted just as they are, and consequently, the transmission time is decreased by 1/2.
(Character codes from 00 to 1F cannot be used.)

Interrupt (ENQ)
When interrupt is used when the connection mode is (1 : 1)*, this code is transmitted.
The transmission occurs when a regular key is pressed or when the [ENTER] key is pressed in the
entry mode. (For information on interrupt timing, refer to page App6-19.)
Interrupt data becomes the contents of write areas n + 2 to n + 7. (Refer to page App6-12.)

It is possible to use a macro command to initiate an interrupt.

There are two ways to use a macro command to transmit data. You can either convert the data into
HEX code and transmit it, or you can transmit the data just as it is without converting it.
Use the macro command (OUT_ENQ). For details, refer to “Chapter 13” in the User’s Manual

Switch Output (See page App6-12, page App6-19 and page App6-34.)
When [Output Action] of a switch is set to [Momentary] and [Output Memory] is set in location
($s80-95) of system memory, the following actions occur when the switch is pressed.
When the bit memory specified in system memory is set, and the switch is released, it is reset.
The switch number that corresponds to the bit is written in write areas n + 3 and n + 4.
For the relationship between the bit and the switch number, refer to page App6-42.
• POD analog type
Normally, only one switch can be pressed. (Fixed to 1 output)
However, if you go from the menu bar to [System Setting] to [Function Switch Setting] (or if you go
from the menu bar to [Edit] to [Local Function Switch Setting]), and check [Use Function Switch], it
is possible to press two points (2 outputs) at the same time.
For 1 output ([Use Function Switch] is not checked), the switch number and switch information are
written in n + 3. For 2 outputs ([Use Function Switch] is checked), the switch number and switch
information are written in n + 3 and n+ + 4 when two points are pressed.
• POD matrix type

When you go from the menu bar to [Edit] to [Screen Setting], you can select between 1output or 2
outputs. For 1 output, the switch number and switch information are written in n + 3. For 2
outputs, the switch number and switch information are written in n + 3 and n + 4 when 2 switches
are pressed simultaneously.
The switch number is written in the following way in write areas n + 3 and n + 4.
n + 3, n + 4 (SW0/SW1)

Memory Map
Memory
Inside the POD, there is internal memory necessary for screen display called “user memory ($u),” as
well as memory that the POD uses for the system called “system memory ($s).”
User Memory ($u)

16384 words are available for user memory. This area is usable as desired for screen data. Also the
host computer can write to and read from the area.
The memory map is as shown below.

something.
With this written information, it is possible to check overlap status, buffer area, printer, backlight, and
slave station status in multi-drop connection mode.
* System memory cannot be read or written from the host computer.
In the table below, a small part ($s80 to 95) of system memory is extracted. For more information on
other areas of system memory, refer to “Appendix 1” in the User’s Manual <Function> (FEH376).

Appendix 8 Ladder Transfer Function App8-1
Up until now it has been necessary to debug the data by repeatedly disconnecting and reconnecting
the two computer-PLC and POD-PLC cables when the POD is directly connected to a PLC equipped
with only one CPU port. With the ladder transfer function, however, it is possible to write ladder
programs or monitor the PLC memory using the POD without disconnecting and reconnecting the
cables.

Notes on Ladder Transfer Function
• On-line editing between the editor and the POD is not possible. If attempted, communications
between the PLC programming software and the PLC will not be performed correctly.
• Communicating statuses with the PLC programming software and the PLC during communications
between the editor and the POD
Editor PLC Programming Software

Communications disconnected (normal
Writing to POD
communications on completion of writing)
Reading from POD Normal communications
Comparing with POD Normal communications
• Baud rate setting

The [Baud Rate] setting in the [Comm. Parameter] dialog applies to the baud rate between the
POD and the PLC. However, if communication with the PLC programming software (monitoring,
etc.) starts by means of the ladder transfer function, the baud rate set on the software takes effect.
The baud rate stays enabled until the POD is turned off and on again.
Keeping this in mind, set the PLC programming software baud rate and the [Baud Rate] in the
[Comm. Parameter] dialog to the same value.
• With [Ladder Tool] checked in the [Modular Jack] dialog, it is prohibited to register the devices to
be monitored for POD-PLC communication even though the PLC programming software is not
started. The screen display speed will decrease somewhat accordingly.
• Also, when the ladder program is transferred in the RUN mode of the POD, communications are
synchronized; therefore, the performance of both the POD and the PLC programming software
decreases.
Ladder Communication Program

If using the ladder communication function, the POD requires the ladder communication program.
Normally when screen data is transferred, the program is also transferred. To transfer the ladder
communication program only, follow the procedure described below.
1. Select [Ladder comm. prg.] in the [Transfer] dialog, and click [PC->].
2. The dialog box below is displayed. Select the ladder communication program that corresponds to
the PLC model (refer to page App8-1) and click the [Open] button. Program transfer to the POD
starts.
