Chapter 1 Introduction of FATEK FBS Series PLC

The FATEK FBS Series PLC is a new generation of micro PLC equipped with excellent functions comparable to medium
or large PLC, with up to five communication ports. The maximum I/O numbers are 256 points for Digital Input (DI) and Digital
Output (DO), 64 words for Numeric Input (NI) and Numeric Output (NO). The Main Units of FBS are available in three types: MA
(Economy Type), MC (High-Performance Type), and MN (High-Speed NC Type). With the combination of I/O point ranges from
10 to 60, a total of 17 models are available. Fifteen DI/DO and 19 NI/NO models are available for Expansion Units/Modules.
With interface options in RS232, RS485, USB, Ethernet, CANopen, Zigbee and GSM, the communication peripherals are
available with 15 boards and modules.
1.1 Appearance of Main Unit
All the Main Units of FBS-PLC have the same physical structure. The only difference is the case width. There are four different
case sizes, which are 60mm, 90mm, 130mm, and 175mm. The figure below will use the Main Unit case of the FBS-24MC as
an example for illustration:

1.2 Appearance of Expansion Unit/Module

There are three types of cases for expansion units/modules. One type uses the same case as main unit that of the 90mm,
130mm, and 175mm, while the other two have thinner 40mm and 60mm cases, which are for expansion modules. All
expansion cables (left) of expansion units/modules are flat ribbon cables (5cm long), which were soldered directly on the PCB,
and the expansion header (right) is a 14Pin Header, with this to connect the right adjacent expansion units/modules. In the
following, each of the three types of expansion units/modules is described as an example:

The Single-Unit system means a system built only by a single FBs-PLC and its expansion unit/modules and
communication boards/modules. Such system have a limited capability (refer), beyond that capability can incorporate
CPU communication via LINK function for expansions (please refer to the next paragraph). The figure below shows the
block diagram of the Single-Unit system of FBs-PLC, where, besides the available main units , the available
communication peripherals resources and I/O expansion resources are depict on the left and the right respectively.
For the I/O of FBS-PLC, it can achieve a maximum of 256 point digital input (DI), 256 point digital output (DO), 64 word
numeric input (NI), and 64 word numeric output (NO). Combined with various special interface modules, it can directly
connect with devices such as Thermocouple, RTD, 7-segment LED display, and the Thumbwheel switch, which are
shown on the right in the above figure.
Regarding communication resources, the FBs-PLC hardware can accommodate up to 5 communication ports (with a
maximum speed of 921.6Kbps). In addition to providing the standard FATEK communication protocol, it also supports the
Modbus master/slave protocol or any user-defined protocol. This functionality easily renders the connections with
intelligent peripherals such as electronic scale, bar code reader, and various meters and gauges.
2.2 Formation of Multi-Unit System
By connections through communication ports and specific communication drivers, multiple Single-Unit PLC systems
can be integrated to achieve resources sharing among multiple PLC or PLCs and its host computer. It is described as
follows:

As shown in the figure, through the usage of high-speed RS-485 network, can easily establish the connections of 2~254
main units (each PLC with its own station number). All need to do is to write and execute CPU Link commands in one of
the main units, which makes it the Master of the CPU Link network. No other command is necessary for other Slave units.
The Master CPU will automatically collect the information or data in the specific areas of all units (including the Master)
and put it into the Common Data areas(CDM) of all units. Thus all the units connected by network can share the data for
each other and turning the finite Single-Unit system with limited I/O into a huge system.

Besides the above area network connection, FBs-PLC can also be connected using MODEM via the phone line (either
leased line or public phone line) to form remote multiple PLC Link. (When using a public phone line, the Master PLC
will perform consecutive dialing for all its Slave PLC.)
2.2.2 Connection of FBs-PLC with Host Computer or Intelligent Peripherals
Any one of the five communication ports on FBs-PLC can be used to connect to an upper-level computer or other
systems, with this architecture, the FBs-PLC is playing the Slave role. FBs-PLC supports the FATEK and Modbus
protocol. Connection can be established as long as the upper-level computer or intelligent peripherals use either one of
the two protocols. In the application, in which driver for FATEK or Modbus is not available, FATEK also provide
standard DDE communication server, which enables FBs-PLC to connect with any computer system supporting DDE.
The following is the block diagram.

Chapter 3 Expansion of FBS-PLC
If the I/O point of the. Main unit of the applied FBS-PLC is not enough for a specific application, then can expand it with
the additional expansion units/modules. Besides I/O point there also have the requirements to expand the
communication port in some occasions.
3.1 I/O Expansion
The expansion of FBS-PLC I/O consists of Digital I/O ( DI/O, which status is represented by a single bit) and the Numeric
I/O (NI/O , which status is represented by a 16-bit Word). Either the DI/O or the NI/O expansion is realized through
expansion units or modules cascaded thru the usage of the I/O Output Expansion Connector located at the right side of
FBS-PLC or expansion unit/ module.
The I/O points of FBS-PLC system are limited to 512 points of DI/O (256 points for DI and DO, respectively), 128 words
of NI/O (64 words for NI and NO, respectively). Besides this there are two limits imposed by hardware:
1 . A maximum
number of 32 units or modules can be used in the expansion.
2 . The total length of the expansion cables cannot
exceed 5 meters.
Caution
1. If the I/O points of the application system exceed one of the limitations(256 DI,256 DO,64 NI, 64 NO), while
startup the main unit of FBS-PLC will treat this as an illegal I/O configuration, which in return will flag as an error
situation by turn on the ERR LED and put the error code in Y0~Y3 LED(refer the page 8-2, Chapter 8). The
corresponding error code will also be indicated in the CPU status register (R4049).
2. The maximum number of expansion units/modules of FBS-PLC is 32. Beyond this numbers will be treated as
an invalid I/O configuration and the main unit will stop its operation, which in return will flag as an error situation
by turn on the ERR LED and put the error code in Y0~Y3 LED(refer the page 8-2, Chapter 8). The
corresponding error code will also be indicated in the CPU status register (R4049).
Warning
1. The maximum length of the I/O expansion cable for FBS-PLC is 5 meters. Cables longer than that will cause
incorrect I/O operation because of excess signal delay in hardware or noise pickup, resulting in damage to
equipment or posing hazard to operating personnel. Since this kind of situation cannot be detected by the PLC
main unit, users are advised to take extra cautions and necessary measures.
3.1.1 Digital I/O Expansion and I/O Numbering
Digital I/O means I/O with the discrete type status, including digital input (with initial X in DI numbering) and digital
output (with initial with Y in DO numbering). The DI and DO of FBS-PLC can both be expanded up to 256 points
(numbered as X0~X255 and Y0~Y255, each with 256 points).
The status of input contacts (X0~X255) of PLC come from the input signal connected to the digital input terminal block
on main unit or expansion unit/module; while the status appears at digital output terminal block of main unit and
expansion unit/module reflects the digital output relay (Y0~Y255) status inside PLC.
On FBs-PLC main unit, at the position below the digital input terminal block and the position above the output terminal
block, there have labels indicate the corresponding signal name. They label each terminal with numbers representing
the corresponding digital input contact Xn and digital output relay Yn. In the example of the main unit in FBS-24MCR,
the corresponding digital input contacts on the input terminal block are labeled X0~13, and the corresponding digital
output relays on the output terminal block Y0~Y9. Users only need to locate the printed label for each terminal to find
out its I/O number. The LED status display region also indicates the ON/OFF status for all DI(X0~X13) and DO(Y0~Y9)
H3-1
on the main unit. Users can easily find each terminal with its I/O number and LED status indication, as shown in the
figure below using X10 and Y6 as an example:

While the various expansion units/modules other than the main units have the same printed labels on the input/output
terminals as the main units do, these labels are only relative I/O numbers, different from the absolute I/O numbers on
main units. The number of a terminal only represents its order on the expansion unit/module. For example, the first
contact is X1 or Y1, the second X2 or Y2, etc. All numbers on the expansion unit/module begin with 1. The actual
number of digital input contact or the output replay, however, is determined by summing the numbers on all previous
expansion units/modules and the main unit. See the following figure and its calculation.

number of input contact X12 on second expansion unit should be:

3.1.2 Numeric I/O Expansion and I/O Channel Mapping
The numeric I/O in FBs-PLC treat 16 single-bit data as one 16-bit numeric data (Word) ranging from the 0~65535.
Since all numeric data of FBs-PLC are stored in the register inside PLC (16-bit width), therefore numeric I/O is also
called register I/O. The Input Register (IR) has 64 Word (R3840 ~ R3903) for inputs from external numeric input (NI)
module, and the Output Register (OR) also has 64 Word (R3904 ~ R3967) for outputs to external numeric output (NO)
module.
Analog Input Module, Temperature Module, and Thumbwheel switch multiplex input module are of Numeric input (NI)
modules which use input register (IR) to convey the status. Analog Output Module, 7 Segments Display Module are of
Numeric output (NO) modules which output is directly from the Output register (OR). The Analog Input, Temperature
Input, and Analog Output is of analog voltage or current, while the Thumbwheel switch Input or 7 Segments Display
Output uses user-friendly BCD number signal. Either the magnitude of voltage or current or the value of BCD number is
represented by the 16-bit value of the corresponding register. The corresponding current/voltage signal or BCD value of
any IR or OR on the NI/O module is named as a Channel (CH). The channels on the NI module are called numeric
input channels (NI channels) and those on NO module numeric output channels (NO channels). The number of IR/OR
used by NI and NO channels on each module varies depending on the module type or working mode. The following
table lists the numbers of IR and OR used by NI and NO channels on each NI/O module:

The corresponding IR or OR number calculation of the NI/O module starts from the first expansion unit/module(main
unit itself does not have any NI/O). The first NI channel corresponds to the first IR register (R3840). Adding R3840 with
the number of IR used by the first NI channel gives the IR number of the second NI channel. Adding the IR number of
the second NI channel with the number of IR used by the second NI channel gives the IR number of the third NI
channel. All other numbers can be obtained accordingly. Similarly, the first NO channel corresponds to the first OR
(R3904). Adding R3904 with the number of OR used by the first NO channel gives the OR number of the second NO
channel. (In the cumulative calculation of NI channels, care only for NI channels and disregard DI/O and NI. Similarly,
in the case of NO channels, disregard DI/O and NI channels.) The following figure helps users find out the relation
between NI/O channels and PLCs IR and OR.

During the startup stage, FBs-PLC will automatically detect the types and CH numbers of expansion units/modules.
While operation, the FBs-PLC will read the CH input values from the NI module and stores them into corresponding
IR(R3804 ~ R3903) and outputs OR values (R3904~R3967) to channels on the NO module. No pre-configuration or
setting by users is required.
3.2 Expansion of Communication Port
The main unit of FBs-PLC has one built-in communication port (port 0, with optional USB or RS232 interface).
Expansion of communication ports can be achieved by employing Communication Board (CB) or Communication
Module (CM). The available models of CB and CM for FBs are

Communication boards, which can be directly installed on FBs main units, are employed for expansion of
communication ports port1 and port2. Communication modules are independent modules used for the expansion of
communication ports port3 and port4 and need to be mounted against the left side of FBs main unit and connected to
the main unit via a 14pin connector. The labels of communication ports are marked on the cover plate of
communication boards and modules, from which users can easily identify each port. Except that the built-in
communication port (Port0) can only be used for USB or RS 232 interface, all the other ports (Port 1~4) can be used
for RS232 or RS 485 interface in CB and CM. The following figure shows an example of expansion of 5 (maximum
allowed number) communication ports (CB22+CM25E):

4.5 Precautions on Construction and Wiring
1. During the wiring of FBSPLC, please follow local national standards or regulations for installation
2. Please choose the wires with proper wire gauge for I/O wiring according to the current loads.
3. Shorter wires are preferred. It is advised that the length of I/O wiring does not exceed 100m (10m for high-speed
input).
4. Input wiring should be separated from output or power wiring (at least 30~50mm apart). In case separation is not
possible, adopt vertical crossing, no parallel wiring is allow.
5. The pitch of FBS-PLC terminal block is 7.62mm. The torque for screw and suggested terminal is shown below:

Chapter 5 Power Supply Wiring, Power Consumption
Calculation, and Power Sequence Requirements
FBS-PLC internally has three kinds of circuit: a 5VDC logic circuit, a 24VDC driver circuit (driver output devices, for
example: relay, transistor, and etc), and a 24VDC input circuit. Only the 5VDC logic circuit and 24VDC output circuit
are powered by the built-in power supply for main/expansion units or powered by expansion power supply modules
(FBs-EPW-AC, FBs-EPW-D24), and the 24VDC input circuit can be choose to powered by the external power supply
or the built-in power supply of main/expansion units or 24VDC sensor of FBs-EPW-AC/D12/D24. Expansion modules
other than main/expansion units do not contain any power supply and are powered by the power supply inside the
main/expansion units or expansion power supply (FBS-EPW-AC, FBs-EPW-D24). Main/expansion units or expansion
power supply with their model numbers suffixed with -D12/-D24 means is operated by DC power source. Otherwise,
AC power source is used.
Caution
In industrial environments, main power may irregularly experience a surge current or high voltage pulse
caused by the start or shut down of high power equipment. Users are advised to take necessary
measures (for example, the use of isolation transformer or other MOV suppression devices) for the
protection of PLC and its peripherals.
5.1 Specifications and Wiring of AC Power Sourced Power Supply
The available AC power supplies of FBS-PLC are the 14 Watt (SPW14-AC) supply for 10/14 PTs main unit, the 24 Watt
(SPW24-AC) supply for 20~60PTs main/expansion unit, and the 14 Watt expansion supply (FBS-EPW-AC) for
expansion modules. Except that the FBS-EPW-AC is an independent module, SPW14-AC and SPW24-AC are to be
installed on a main unit or inside an expansion unit, where their appearances are invisible. The following table lists the

5.3 Residual Capacity of Main/Expansion Unit & Current Consumption of Expansion
Module
Besides its own circuits usage, the residual capacities of three sets of built-in power supply of main/expansion unit are
big enough for other expansion modules usage. In addition, the expansion power (FBS-EPW) module can also provides
the power for expansion modules usage. As each model of the main/expansion unit has AC/DC power or modules, it has
different residual capacity, various models of expansion modules also consume different amounts of current. In practice,
one has to consider the match between the two to avoid overload in any of the three sets of output power. In the
following, the worst case of the available residual capacity in each main/expansion unit and the maximum power
consumption of expansion modules are described below spare.

z In the above table, the residual capacity is calculated according to the most power-consuming model (for
example, MCT) of in each main/expansion unit by its I/O point number, under the maximum load condition (with
both DI and DO ON). The basic units for calculation are 7.5mA /PT for high/medium speed DI, 4.5mA/PT for low
speed DI (Ultra high speed DI does not use the 24VDC power in input circuit), 10mA/PT for high speed DO,
7.5mA/PT for medium speed DO, and 5mA for low speed DO and relay output. (excluding the SSR model).
z See Sections 5.1 and 5.2 for the residual capacity of expansion power (-EPW-AC and -EPW-D24)
Warning
Either for the built-in power supply of the main/expansion unit or the expansion power supply for the expansion
unit, the total amount of current cannot exceed the value listed in the above table. Any violation will cause a
voltage drop by overloading the power supply, or intermittent powered with the supply in protection mode, either
of which will result in unexpected action of PLC and cause harm to people or damage to equipment.
5.3.2 Maximum Current Consumption of Expansion Module
Without its own power supply, expansion modules must be supported by the main/expansion unit, expansion power, or
external power supply (24VDC input circuit alone). The following table lists the maximum consumption current of each
expansion module.

z The above table lists the required current for the maximum consumption in each expansion module. The 24VDC
input circuit consumes 4.5mA less per point of OFF state DI in DI/O module, while the 24VDC output circuit
consumes 5mA less per point of OFF state DO. The effect of power consumption variation regarding the ON/OFF
state of DI/DO of expansion modules other than DI/O are less significant and can be neglected.
z The effect of residual capacity variation regarding the ON/OFF state of DI/DO for 5VDC logic circuit can be
neglected.

5.3.3 Calculation Example of Power Capacity
Power module selection is depending on the sum of current consumption of all modules. Therefore, user must
know the current consumption of each module. Please refer to Table II, which has the maximum current consumption
of each expansion module.
Before power module selection, we need to calculate the total current consumptions. Calculations need to be
divided into two sections, DC5V (Bus Power) current consumption and DC24V (Bus Power) current consumption.
User must consider the match between power and expansion modules cannot cause BusPower output power of
any one group of overload use.
Example 1: The below diagram is a system modules, try to calculate the power supply used of the system.

5.4 Requirement of Power Sequence in Main Unit & Expansion Unit/Module
When the power is on, the FBS-PLC main unit first detects the type and number of expansion unit/module attached to
its expansion interface and get the actual I/O configuration. Therefore, while the main unit performs detection, the
power in expansion unit/module should be already UP, otherwise, the detected I/O configuration will not correct.
Namely, the power of expansion unit/module should be ON simultaneously or even earlier. There will be no time
sequence error when main unit/expansion unit/module are connected together to one power. If the expansion unit and
main unit powered by different powers (or the same power but different switches), or external power supply is used for
expansion modules, time sequence of both powers should be considered. To solve the problem of the expansion
unit/module power not get ready before main unit power does, FBS-PLC provides a special R4150 register which can
delay the detection time of I/O configuration. The time base of R4150 is 0.01sec with a default value of 100 (namely a
1sec delay), which can be set from 100~500 (1~5sec), as shown in the figure below. If the expansion unit power cannot
be UP within 1sec after main unit power is ON, the R4150 time needs to be set longer to delay the detection by CPU. It
cannot exceed 5sec, however, otherwise the configuration of expansion interface cannot be detected.

Chapter 6 Digital Input (DI) Circuit
The FBS-PLC provides the ultra high speed differential double end 5VDC inputs (i.e., single input with two terminals
without common) and the single-end 24VDC inputs which use the common terminal to save terminals. The response
speeds of single-end common input circuits are available in high, medium and low. Because the double end input
circuit has two independent terminals, it can be connected either in SINK or SOURCE for input or in differential input
wiring for line driver source. The single-end input circuit can be set to SINK or SOURCE type by varying the wiring of
the common terminals S/S inside PLC and external common wire of input circuits (see Sec. 6.3 for details).

6.2 Structure and Wiring of 5VDC Ultra High Speed Differential Input Circuit
Only the MN main unit of FBs provides the 5VDC ultra high speed differential input circuit, which is mainly used for the
input of hardware high speed counter (HHSC) with a maximum working frequency up to 920 KHz. In practice, to ensure
the high speed and high noise immunity, please use Line-Driver for differential line driving. In environments with small
noise and medium working frequency (200KHz), however, it can be changed to the 5VDC single-end SINK or
SOURCE input or to the 24VDC single-end SINK or SOURCE input by connecting a 3K/0.5W resistor in series, as
shown in the figure below.

6.3 24VDC Single-End Input Circuit and Wiring for SINK/SOURCE Input
The 24VDC single-end digital input circuits of FBS-PLC are available for high, medium and low speed. They all have
the similar circuit structures but with different response speeds. To save input terminals, the circuit of single-end input is
implemented by connecting one end of all input points (photo coupler) inside the PLC to the same internal common
point labeled as S/S. The other end of each input circuit is connected to corresponding terminals such as X0, X1, X2,
etc. The S/S common terminal and N single-end inputs comprise of N digital inputs (i.e., only N+1 terminals are used
for N terminals). Therefore, we call this type of input structure the single-end input. The user also needs to do the same
thing when making the connection of external digital input devices. Namely, the one end of all input devices (e.g.,
buttons, switches) are connected together and called the external common wire, while the other ends of input circuits
are connected to the input terminals X0, X1, X2, etc., of PLC. Then finish it by connecting the external common wiring
and internal common terminal S/S to the positive/negative terminals of the 24VDC power. When connect the internal
common terminal S/S to 24V+(positive) and the external common wire to 24V (negative), then the circuit serve as
SINK input. On the contrary, while exchange the wiring of the above internal and external common will serve as a
SOURCE input. The above wiring schemes can illustrated below:

Chapter 7 Digital Output (DO) Circuit
The digital outputs of FBS-PLC are available in the following two structures: the 5VDC ultra high speed Line-driver type
differential output (i.e., one output occupying two terminals), and the single-end output circuit for saving terminals.
There are three kinds of output device for the single-end output, which are relays, TRIAC and transistors. Since the
relay and TRIAC are bilateral, even when used in single-end output, they can serve as SINK or SOURCE output. The
transistor, however, because of its polarities, after being used as single-end common output, its SINK and SOURCE
polarities are exactly the opposite (common point Cn of SINK output must connect to negative end of DC power).
Therefore, the product model of transistor output of FBS-PLC for SINK and SOURCE is distinct. At the right side of
terminal block of FBS-PLC, there is a place for making SINK or SOURCE label.
Warning
No over current protection is available in the FBS series PLC. Except for the 5V differential output circuit, all
other output circuits have to be added with over current or short circuit protections externally, such as fuses,
in applications with safety concern.
Terminals labeled byon the terminal block are empty contacts, which cannot be connected with any wire
to maintain the required safety clearance and to avoid damage to the unit.
In situations where simultaneous operations of outputs(such as reverse/forward action of motor) pose safety
concerns, besides the interlock in PLC programs, additional interlock circuits are needed outside PLC, as
shown below

7.2 5VDC Ultra High Speed Line-Driver Differential Output Circuit and its Wiring
The 5VDC ultra high speed Line-Driver differential output circuit of FBS-PLC is only available for the main unit of the
MN model. Its output can connect to general photo coupler circuit or Line-Receiver input circuit, with the connection
shown in the figure below. To improve noise immunity and maintain signal quality, please use twisted pair with shield (or
aluminum foils) for connection and connect the shield with SG of PLC and FG of the driver. Please also operate in
2-phase driving mode (because 2-phase driving can automatically cancel interferences from noise pulses).

7.3 Single-End Output Circuit
Except that the 5VDC ultra high speed output circuit has independent dual terminal outputs, all other output circuits
such as relays, transistors or TRIAC are single-end output structure. A single-end output in each digital output (DO)
takes up only one terminal. But since any output device has two ends, the one end of several output devices have to be
connected together to one common point (called output common) for single-end output. Then each output point can
output via this common point. The more output device share a same common points, the more terminals are saved,
while relatively increasing the current running through the common point. Combination of any output common with its
individual single-end outputs are called a Common Output Block, which is available in 2, 4 and 8PTs (high-density
module) in FBS-PLC. Each Common Output Block is separated from one another. The common terminal has a label
initiated with letter C, while its numbering is determined by the minimum Yn number which comprise the output block.
In the example of the figure below, the number of common terminal of output block Y2 and Y3 is C2, while the number
of common terminal of output Block Y4, Y5, Y6 and Y7 is C4. The various single-end common output circuits are

Because relay contacts have no polarity, it can be applied for AC or DC load power. Each relay can provide current up
to 2A. The maximum rated current in all output commons of FBS-PLC is 4A. Its mechanical lifetime can reach up to 2
million times, while the contacts have a shorter lifetime. The lifetime also varies depending on working voltage, load
type (power factor cos) and contact current. The relation between them is plotted in the figure below. In the case of
pure resistive load (cos=1.0) at 120VAC and 2A, the lifetime of contacts is about 250 thousand times. While for high
inductive or capacitive load with cosup to 0.2 and current within 1A, the lifetime decreases rapidly to about 50
thousand times (AC200V) or 80 thousand times (AC120V).

The figure above uses output block s of 2PTs common and 4PTs common as an example to explain the differences in
structural and wiring for SINK and SOURCE output circuits, respectively.(8PTs common has the same block structure
and wiring, except with different point number) The single-end SINK output and SOURCE transistor output in FBS-PLC
are different models. The user must check whether it is SINK output model or SOURCE output model when
purchasing.

7.4 Speed up the Single-End Transistor Output Circuit (only applicable to high and
medium-speed)
Either with the SINK or SOURCE structure in single-end output transistor circuit, when the transistor switches from ON
to OFF, the junction capacitor between transistor CE electrodes should be charged to near the load voltage VDD before
it can stop the current running through the photocoupler inside the load, which increase the OFF time and decrease the
response speed. This problem can be solved by adding a Dummy load to accelerate charging rate and speed up the
working frequency of transistor output. For the transistor output in FBS-PLC, Dummy load that are added to the high-
and medium-speed transistor output and generate a load current of 20~50mA is adequate. For low speed transistor
where its driving capability (0.5A) but speed is concerned, adding a Dummy load only decreases its driving capability
without any significant improvement and hence is not recommended. The following diagram shows how to add a
Dummy load to SINK and SOURCE transistor output.

7.5 Output Device Protection and Noise Suppression in DO Circuit
Since the digital output circuits are mainly used for the ON/OFF switching operation, the output components such as
relays, transistors and TRIAC can be deemed as kinds of switch components. Normally, surge currents or
counter-electromotive force voltages are generated during the ON/OFF operation of these switch components. The
effect of surge currents or counter-electromotive force voltages is particularly serious when heavy capacitive or
inductive loads are incorporated, which may cause damage to the output components or generate noises in other
electronic circuits and equipment. Among those three FBS-PLC output components, where TRIAC require no special
treatment because of their features of smaller rated current, zero cross in ON/OFF, and built-in protection circuits,
special consideration should be given to relays and transistors when they are used in high power applications or
connected with capacitive or inductive loads and are described in the following:
7.5.1 Protection of Relay Contacts and Noise Suppression
Because the relay contacts are used to contact switch components having extremely low resistance, the surge
current IR generated instantly upon turning on the relay is normally pretty strong (even if the steady load current is
very small). Under such strong surge, the contact tends to melt and stick due to extreme temperature in such a way
that the relay cannot trip when it is disconnected. In addition, when the relay connections are OFF, large di/dt is
generated because of the instantaneous change from low resistance to open circuit () soon after following the
tripping of contact. As a result, an extremely strong counter-electromotive force voltage is induced, which creates
sparks between the electrodes of two relay contacts and results in poor contact due to carbon deposits. Among
those three output components, either in ON or OFF state, very serious interference can be caused by the surge
current or the counter-electromotive of the relay. The solutions to this problem are listed as follows:
H7-6
A. Suppression of Surge Current Connect a small resistor R in series to lower the surge current,
but note that too large R will affect the driving capability or cause too much voltage drop.

B. Suppression of Counter-Electromotive Force
For the inductive load, whether in AC or DC power, suppression devices must be connected in parallel to both its
ends to protect the relay contacts and lower noise interference. The schematic diagrams for AC and DC powers are
shown below, respectively:

7.5.2 Protection of Transistor Output and Noise Suppression
The transistor output in FBS-PLC already includes Zener diode for counter-electromotive force, which is sufficient for
low power inductive load and medium frequency of ON/OFF application. In conditions of high power or frequent
ON/OFF, please construct another suppression circuit to lower noise interference and prevent voltage from
exceeding the limit or overheating that may damage the transistor output circuit.

Chapter 8 Test Run, Monitoring and Maintenance
Warning
During maintenance, be sure to turn off the input power of PLC in case the actions to touch any terminal on
PLC, or insert and extract accessories (e.g., expansion ribbon cables) is required. Otherwise, electric shock,
short circuit, damaged PLC or PLC malfunction will be caused if the power is on.
8.1 Inspection After Wiring and Before First Time Power on
1. Before power on, clean all unnecessary objects such as iron chippings and screws, and remove the dust cover
sheet that surround the FBS-PLC.
2. Make sure that the input power and PLC required power is of the same type. When input power is AC power,
please pay attention to connect the hot wire (L) to the L terminal on PLC and the ground wire (N) to the N
terminal. Mistakenly connect to DC powered PLC or to terminals other than L and N will result in electric shock,
serious damage or malfunction.
3. Make sure the load power and PLC output circuits are consistent. Connection of AC power to transistor output or
DC power to TRIAC output will damage PLC or result in malfunction.
4. Make sure the DC24V input and polarities of SINK/SOURCE in transistor output are consistent with those of your
existing wiring. Any mismatch will result in failure of PLC input and damage to the output circuit.
8.2 Test Run and Monitoring
The FBS-PLC provides a convenient feature to Disable/Enable the I/O points by whole or individually. Namely, while
PLC performs the normal logic scan operation and I/O refreshment, it does not update the status of the disabled input
points according to the actual external input. For the disabled output points, the result of logic scan cant override the
disable status of outputs, only the user can force the state to on or off in order to simulate its operation. The user only
needs to utilize the disable function combined with Monitor to achieve simulating the input or output via FP-08 or
WINPROLADDER and observe the result. Upon the finish the simulation, revert all the inputs or outputs to Enable state
will bring back normal operation. Refer the instructions of WINPROLADDER or FP-08 for the operation of RUN/STOP
PLC, Disable/Enable I/O and monitoring of I/O status and content of register.
Warning
The disable function is to let the input or output status out of PLC program control and switched to the
control of the user (tester) to freely set the disabled input or output to be ON or OFF. In normal PLC
operation, when dealing with input or output with safety issues (such as upper/lower limit of detected input
or output emergency stop), the user must make sure whether it can be disabled or overridden to ON/OFF
before starting the disable or override control, to avoid damage to equipment or harm to people.

Power IndicatorPOW
After the PLC is power on, with correct power source and wiring, thePOWLED indicator in the middle of the PLC
nameplate will turn on, indicating that power supply is normal. If the indicator is not on, please try to temporarily remove
the wiring of 24VDC output power for Sensor. If the LED is back to normal, it means that the load on the power for the
24VDC input circuit is too large so that PLC enters overload low voltage protection mode. (When PLC enters overload
low voltage protection mode, POW LED is off and there are slight and intermittent low frequency hissing sounds, from
which one can tell if the 24VDC power is overloaded or shorted.)
When the above method still cannot turn on thePOWLED, if it is confirmed that correct power input exists between
PLC power input L/N terminals or +/- (DC power), please send the unit to your local distributor for repair.
Operation IndicatorRUN
As long as the CPU is working properly, in the STOP state, this indicator will go on and off for 2 seconds, respectively.
When its in the RUN state, the indicator will go on and off for 0.25 seconds, respectively. To make PLC enter into Run
state, or switch from RUN to STOP state, it has to be done through the programmer (FP-08 or WINPROLADDER).
Once PLC is set to RUN or STOP, it will keep that state even after power off. The only exception is, when using the
ROM PACK, no matter if its running or stopped before power off, PLC will automatically enter RUN state (with correct
ROM PACK syntax check) when power is back. In normal operation of PLC upon errors (e.g., errors in WDT timer and
program), PLC will automatically switch to STOP state and light theERRerror indicator. If it is a minor error, the RUN
state can be resumed as long as the power is back after an outage. In case of serious errors, the PLC cannot be
operated again with the programmer until the problem is solved. If PLC cannot be resumed to RUN state after all,
please send it to your local distributor for repair.
Error IndicatorERR
In normal PLC operation, either in RUN or STOP state, this indicator will not show any signal (off). If it is on, it means
that the system has an error (e.g., WDT time-out, program error, communication error, etc.)
If it is constantly on, please reset the power. If the situation is still the same, it implies a hardware failure in CPU and has
to be sent to the distributor for repair.
When the ERR indicator flashes with a 0.5 sec interval, it means that some anomaly occurs to PLC. At the same time,
status indicators Y0~Y3 switch to serve as indications of 15 error codes (the corresponding outputs are disabled), which

Indicator on Transmit/Receive of Built-In Communication Port (Port0) TXRX

These two LED indicators are used for the status of transmit/receive of the built-in communication port (Port0). The RX
indicator (green) is for indication when PLC receives external signals, while the TX indicator (red) is for indication when
PLC transmits signals, both of which are very helpful in monitoring communication condition and debugging. When PLC
communicates with external equipment (computer, programmer, intelligent peripherals, etc.), Port0 in FBS-PLC can only
be used in slave mode (Port1~4 can be used in master mode). Therefore, during its operation, PLC must first receive
external signals (RX on) before it can transmit signals back to external equipment (TX on now). When the
communication is fail, one can tell if its PLC is not receiving signals or PCL is not replying by looking at the these two
indicators. The currents in these two LED are constant and their lighting duration is proportional to the reception or
transmission time. The more received/transmitted data or the slower (bps) reception/transmission, the longer the
reception/transmission time and so is the indication time (brighter visually). If in high speed but small amount of data,
only short and dim brightness is observed. Therefore, the communication condition can be easily distinguished by these
two indicators.
Indicator of Input StatusXn
When external input Xn is ON, the corresponding LED indicator Xn will be on, otherwise it will be off. If it fails to respond
to external input, please check if the terminal wiring is securely connected, or measure the voltage betweenXnand
commonCto see if it has a change of 0V/22V with ON/OFF of input. If it does, it means that an error occurs in PLC
input circuit or LED indicator. Or you can locate the problem by using the monitor mode of the programmer to check if
this input status works correspondingly with the external input state.
Indicator of Output StatusYn
When the Yn output of PLC is ON, its corresponding output indicator will also be on and its external load will be ON. If
ON/OFF condition of external load is inconsistent with output indicator, please check the wiring of the load, power, and
terminal for secure connection. If the connection is good, then it should be the PLC output component failure. The main
reasons to cause the output component failure are:
1. Overload or short circuit that burns output component and results in permanent open or short circuit.
H8-3
2. Not overloaded, but Inrush current from capacitive load welds relay contacts atON, resulting in permanent ON, or
burns transistor or TRIAC, resulting in permanent ON or OFF.
3. Not overloaded, but the inductive load without proper Snubber circuit causes high voltage sparks between relay
contact atOFFand generate carbon deposition, which separates contacts and causes permanent OFF or
intermittent ON/OFF, or punches through transistor or TRIAC with high voltage, resulting in permanent ON or
OFF.
8.4 Maintenance
FBS-PLC itself has no user serviceable parts and all maintenance has to be conducted by professional personnel. During
use, in case of any defective unit, please first try to find out the defect from the above error codes on the main unit,
followed by performing maintenance over the entire unit or on the Board level. Send the unit that is still not functioning
well to local distributors.
8.5 The Charge of Battery & Recycle of Used Battery
Every FBs PLC main units have inside one re-chargeable lithium battery to safely maintain program and data during
main power shut down. Each lithium battery was fully charged when the FBs-PLC ship out from the factory capable to
retain program and data at least 6 months. There is risk to miss program and data when battery exhaust over 6 months,
the users should mind the date marked on each FBs-PLC.
In case exceeding 6 months, users can do battery re-charging by themselves through keeping FBs-PLC be powered for
over 12 hours then more 6 months can work smoothly on the data saving.
Warning
Any recharge, disassembly, heating, burning on defective or discarded battery is prohibited.
Otherwise may cause danger of explosion or fire. The chemical material of battery will lead to
environment pollution, easily throw away or treat as normal garbage is prohibited. Please
follow after the local or governments regulation to make proper treatment on discard battery.
