Hardware Overview
Hardware Features The Micro810 12-pt controllers are smart relays with high current relay output
models and can be configured through the embedded LCD display without
programming software. It can also function as a micro PLC with the same
programming capabilities as the other Micro800 controllers.
Micro810 controllers do not support Micro800 plug-in modules, but do support

a USB adapter, and an LCD module, which can be used as a backup memory
module.
24V DC powered controllers accommodate any 24V DC output power supply

that meets minimum specifications such as the optional Micro800 power supply
(2080-LC10-12QWB, 2080-LC10-12QBB only).

Disconnecting Main Power
WARNING: Explosion Hazard

Do not replace components, connect equipment, or disconnect equipment
unless power has been switched off.
The main power disconnect switch should be located where operators and
maintenance personnel have quick and easy access to it. In addition to
disconnecting electrical power, all other sources of power (pneumatic and
hydraulic) should be de-energized before working on a machine or process
controlled by a controller.

Safety Circuits
WARNING: Explosion Hazard

Do not connect or disconnect connectors while circuit is live.
Circuits installed on the machine for safety reasons, like overtravel limit switches,
stop push buttons, and interlocks, should always be hard-wired directly to the
master control relay. These devices must be wired in series so that when any one
device opens, the master control relay is de-energized, thereby removing power to
the machine. Never alter these circuits to defeat their function. Serious injury or
machine damage could result.
Power Distribution
There are some points about power distribution that you should know:
• The master control relay must be able to inhibit all machine motion by
removing power to the machine I/O devices when the relay is de-
energized. It is recommended that the controller remain powered even
when the master control relay is de-energized.
• If you are using a DC power supply, interrupt the load side rather than the
AC line power. This avoids the additional delay of power supply turn-off.
The DC power supply should be powered directly from the fused
secondary of the transformer. Power to the DC input and output circuits
should be connected through a set of master control relay contacts.
Periodic Tests of Master Control Relay Circuit
Any part can fail, including the switches in a master control relay circuit. The
failure of one of these switches would most likely cause an open circuit, which
would be a safe power-off failure. However, if one of these switches shorts out, it
no longer provides any safety protection. These switches should be tested
periodically to assure they will stop machine motion when needed.

Power Considerations The following explains power considerations for the micro controllers.
Isolation Transformers
You may want to use an isolation transformer in the AC line to the controller.
This type of transformer provides isolation from your power distribution system
to reduce the electrical noise that enters the controller and is often used as a step-
down transformer to reduce line voltage. Any transformer used with the
controller must have a sufficient power rating for its load. The power rating is
expressed in volt-amperes (VA).
Power Supply Inrush
During power-up, the Micro800 power supply allows a brief inrush current to
charge internal capacitors. Many power lines and control transformers can supply
inrush current for a brief time. If the power source cannot supply this inrush
current, the source voltage may sag momentarily.
The only effect of limited inrush current and voltage sag on the Micro800 is that
the power supply capacitors charge more slowly. However, the effect of a voltage
sag on other equipment should be considered. For example, a deep voltage sag
may reset a computer connected to the same power source. The following
considerations determine whether the power source must be required to supply
high inrush current:
• The power-up sequence of devices in a system.
• The amount of the power source voltage sag if the inrush current cannot be
supplied.
• The effect of voltage sag on other equipment in the system.
If the entire system is powered-up at the same time, a brief sag in the power source
voltage typically will not affect any equipment.
Loss of Power Source
The optional Micro800 AC power supply is designed to withstand brief power

losses without affecting the operation of the system. The time the system is
operational during power loss is called program scan hold-up time after loss of
power. The duration of the power supply hold-up time depends on power
consumption of controller system, but is typically between 10 milliseconds and 3
seconds.

Input States on Power Down
The power supply hold-up time as described above is generally longer than the
turn-on and turn-off times of the inputs. Because of this, the input state change
from “On” to “Off ” that occurs when power is removed may be recorded by the
processor before the power supply shuts down the system. Understanding this
concept is important. The user program should be written to take this effect into
account.
Other Types of Line Conditions
Occasionally the power source to the system can be temporarily interrupted. It is

also possible that the voltage level may drop substantially below the normal line
voltage range for a period of time. Both of these conditions are considered to be a
loss of power for the system.
Preventing Excessive Heat For most applications, normal convective cooling keeps the controller within the
specified operating range. Ensure that the specified temperature range is
maintained. Proper spacing of components within an enclosure is usually
sufficient for heat dissipation.
In some applications, a substantial amount of heat is produced by other

equipment inside or outside the enclosure. In this case, place blower fans inside
the enclosure to assist in air circulation and to reduce “hot spots” near the
controller.
Additional cooling provisions might be necessary when high ambient

temperatures are encountered.
TIP Do not bring in unfiltered outside air. Place the controller in an enclosure
to protect it from a corrosive atmosphere. Harmful contaminants or dirt
could cause improper operation or damage to components. In extreme
cases, you may need to use air conditioning to protect against heat build-
up within the enclosure.
Master Control Relay A hard-wired master control relay (MCR) provides a reliable means for
emergency machine shutdown. Since the master control relay allows the
placement of several emergency-stop switches in different locations, its
installation is important from a safety standpoint. Overtravel limit switches or
mushroom-head push buttons are wired in series so that when any of them opens,
the master control relay is de-energized. This removes power to input and output
device circuits. Refer to the figures on pages 13 and 14.

WARNING: Never alter these circuits to defeat their function

since serious injury and/or machine damage could result.
TIP If you are using an external DC power supply, interrupt the DC output
side rather than the AC line side of the supply to avoid the additional
delay of power supply turn-off.
The AC line of the DC output power supply should be fused.
Connect a set of master control relays in series with the DC power
supplying the input and output circuits.
Place the main power disconnect switch where operators and maintenance
personnel have quick and easy access to it. If you mount a disconnect switch
inside the controller enclosure, place the switch operating handle on the outside
of the enclosure, so that you can disconnect power without opening the
enclosure.
Whenever any of the emergency-stop switches are opened, power to input and
output devices should be removed.
When you use the master control relay to remove power from the external I/O
circuits, power continues to be provided to the controller’s power supply so that
diagnostic indicators on the processor can still be observed.
The master control relay is not a substitute for a disconnect to the controller. It is
intended for any situation where the operator must quickly de-energize I/O
devices only. When inspecting or installing terminal connections, replacing
output fuses, or working on equipment within the enclosure, use the disconnect
to shut off power to the rest of the system.
TIP Do not control the master control relay with the controller. Provide the
operator with the safety of a direct connection between an emergency-
stop switch and the master control relay.
Using Emergency-Stop Switches
When using emergency-stop switches, adhere to the following points:

• Do not program emergency-stop switches in the controller program. Any
emergency-stop switch should turn off all machine power by turning off
the master control relay.
• Observe all applicable local codes concerning the placement and labeling
of emergency-stop switches.

• Install emergency-stop switches and the master control relay in your

system. Make certain that relay contacts have a sufficient rating for your
application. Emergency-stop switches must be easy to reach.
• In the following illustration, input and output circuits are shown with
MCR protection. However, in most applications, only output circuits
require MCR protection.
The following illustrations show the Master Control Relay wired in a grounded
system.
TIP In most applications input circuits do not require MCR protection;

however, if you need to remove power from all field devices, you must
include MCR contacts in series with input power wiring.

Module Spacing
Maintain spacing from objects such as enclosure walls, wireways and adjacent
equipment. Allow 50.8 mm (2 in.) of space on all sides for adequate ventilation.
An exception to this spacing guideline is allowed for the side at which you are
connecting the optional power supply, 2080-PS120-240VAC.
DIN Rail Mounting
The module can be mounted using the following DIN rails: 35 x 7.5 mm x 1 mm
(EN 50 022 - 35 x 7.5).
TIP For environments with greater vibration and shock concerns, use the
panel mounting method, instead of DIN rail mounting.
Before mounting the module on a DIN rail, use a flat-blade screwdriver in the
DIN rail latch and pry it downwards until it is in the unlatched position.

Chapter 3 Install Your Controller
1. Hook the top of the DIN rail mounting area of the controller onto the
DIN rail, and then press the bottom until the controller snaps onto the
DIN rail.
2. Push the DIN rail latch back into the latched position.
Use DIN rail end anchors (Allen-Bradley part number 1492-EAJ35 or
1492-EAHJ35) for vibration or shock environments.
To remove your controller from the DIN rail, pry the DIN rail latch downwards
until it is in the unlatched position.
Panel Mounting
The preferred mounting method is to use four M4 (#8) screws per module. Hole
spacing tolerance: ±0.4 mm (0.016 in.).
Follow these steps to install your controller using mounting screws.
1. Place the controller against the panel where you are mounting it. Make sure
the controller is spaced properly.
2. Mark drilling holes through the mounting screw holes and mounting feet
then remove the controller.
3. Drill the holes at the markings, then replace the controller and mount it.
Leave the protective debris strip in place until you are finished wiring the
controller and any other devices.

Chapter 4
Wire Your Controller
Wiring Requirements
WARNING: Before you install and wire any device, disconnect power
to the controller system.
WARNING: Calculate the maximum possible current in each power

and common wire. Observe all electrical codes dictating the maximum
current allowable for each wire size. Current above the maximum
ratings may cause wiring to overheat, which can cause damage.
United States Only: If the controller is installed within a potentially
hazardous environment, all wiring must comply with the requirements
stated in the National Electrical Code 501-10 (b).
• Allow for at least 50 mm. (2 in.) between I/O wiring ducts or terminal
strips and the controller.
• Route incoming power to the controller by a path separate from the device
wiring. Where paths must cross, their intersection should be
perpendicular.
TIP Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring in the
same conduit. Wires with different signal characteristics should be
routed by separate paths.
• Separate wiring by signal type. Bundle wiring with similar electrical

characteristics together.
• Separate input wiring from output wiring.
• Label wiring to all devices in the system. Use tape, shrink-tubing, or other
dependable means for labeling purposes. In addition to labeling, use
colored insulation to identify wiring based on signal characteristics. For
example, you may use blue for DC wiring and red for AC wiring.

output contacts is required. Switching inductive loads without surge suppression
can significantly reduce the life expectancy of relay contacts. By adding a
suppression device directly across the coil of an inductive device, you prolong the
life of the output or relay contacts. You also reduce the effects of voltage
transients and electrical noise from radiating into adjacent systems.
The following diagram shows a typical PLC's output with a suppression device.
We recommend that you locate the suppression device as close as possible to the

Controller I/O Wiring Minimize Electrical Noise
Because of the variety of applications and environments where controllers are

installed and operating, it is impossible to ensure that all environmental noise will
be removed by input filters. To help reduce the effects of environmental noise,

install the Micro800 system in a properly rated (for example, NEMA) enclosure.
Make sure that the Micro800 system is properly grounded.
A system may malfunction due to a change in the operating environment after a

period of time. We recommend periodically checking system operation,
particularly when new machinery or other noise sources are installed near the
Micro800 system.
Analog Channel Wiring Guidelines
Consider the following when wiring your analog channels:

• The analog common (COM) is connected to power supply common
inside the module. These terminals are not electrically isolated from the
system.
• Analog channels are not isolated from each other.
• Use Belden 8761, or equivalent, shielded wire.
• Under normal conditions, the drain wire (shield) should be connected to
the metal mounting panel at field side (earth ground). Keep the shield
connection to earth ground as short as possible.
• To ensure optimum accuracy for voltage type inputs, limit overall cable
impedance by keeping all analog cables as short as possible. Locate the I/O
system as close to your voltage type sensors or actuators as possible.
Minimize Electrical Noise on Analog Channels
Inputs on analog channels employ digital high-frequency filters that significantly

reduce the effects of electrical noise on input signals. However, because of the
variety of applications and environments where analog controllers are installed
and operated, it is impossible to ensure that all environmental noise will be
removed by the input filters.
Several specific steps can be taken to help reduce the effects of environmental
noise on analog signals:
• install the Micro800 system in a properly rated enclosure, for example,
NEMA. Make sure that the Micro800 system is properly grounded.
• use Belden cable #8761 for wiring the analog channels, making sure that
the drain wire and foil shield are properly earth grounded.
• route the Belden cable separately from any AC wiring. Additional noise
immunity can be obtained by routing the cables in grounded conduit.

Ground Your Analog Cable
Use shielded communication cable (Belden #8761). The Belden cable has two
signal wires (black and clear), one drain wire, and a foil shield. The drain wire and
foil shield must be grounded at one end of the cable.

Clear wire 44531
IMPORTANT Ground the drain wire and foil shield at field side.

Error codes This section lists possible error codes for your controller, as well as recommended
actions for recovery. Information about the fault is stored in a fault log, which can
be accessed from the Diagnostics page in Connected Components Workbench
software. The fault log contains brief information about the last fault, and
detailed information about the last 10 non-recoverable faults that occurred.
If an error persists after performing the recommended action, contact your local
Rockwell Automation technical support representative. For contact information,
go to
http://support.rockwellautomation.com/MySupport.asp.
Fault Types
There are two basic types of faults that can occur:

• Recoverable – A recoverable fault can be cleared without having to power
cycle the controller. The fault LED flashes red when a recoverable fault
occurs.
• Non-recoverable – A non-recoverable fault requires the controller to be
power cycled before clearing the fault. Non-recoverable controller faults
may become recoverable after the controller has been power cycled, or an
automatic reset is performed by the controller. If the controller performs an
automatic reset and the fault becomes recoverable, the fault will not be
logged. After the controller has been power cycled or reset, check the fault
log in the Diagnostic page of the Connected Components Workbench
software, then clear the fault. The fault LED is solid red when a non-
recoverable fault occurs.

Program Execution in Micro800
Configure and Program The Micro810 controller can be configured by either:

Your Micro810 Controller • using Smart Relay function blocks using the 2080-LCD display (and
without the use of Connected Components Workbench programming
software), or
• programmed as a full feature microcontroller using Connected
Components Workbench.
You cannot use both the Smart Relay function blocks and also download a
Connected Components Workbench program. You must choose one of the two
methods. Smart Relay function blocks are targeted to simple applications such as
a timer relay for lighting. Downloading a program using Connected Components
Workbench overwrites the Smart Relay function blocks. Conversely, configuring
the Smart Relay function blocks overwrites any Connected Components
Workbench program.
For instructions on how to use Smart Relay functionality, see Use the Micro810
Smart Relay Functionality on page 70. For quickstart instructions on how to use
the Connected Components Workbench, see the following publications:
• Micro800 and Connected Components Workbench Application Guide,
publication 2080-QR001
• Micro800 and Connected Components Workbench Getting Started
Guide, publication 2080-QR002
For program execution on Connected Components Workbench, see the next

sections.
Overview of Program A Micro800 cycle or scan consists of reading inputs, executing programs in
sequential order, updating outputs and performing communications
Execution housekeeping.
Program names must begin with a letter or underscore, followed by up to 127

letters, digits or single underscores. Use programming languages such as ladder
logic, function block diagrams and structured text.
Up to 256 programs may be included in a project, depending on available

controller memory. By default, the programs are cyclic (executed once per cycle or
scan). As each new program is added to a project, it is assigned the next
consecutive order number. When you start up the Project Organizer in
Connected Components Workbench, it displays the program icons based on this

Chapter 6 Program Execution in Micro800
order. You can view and modify an order number for a program from the
program's properties. However, the Project Organizer does not show the new
order until the next time the project is opened.
The Micro800 supports jumps within a program. Call a subroutine of code

within a program by encapsulating that code as a User Defined Function (UDF)
or User Defined Function Block (UDFB). Although a UDFB can be executed
within another UDFB, a maximum nesting depth of five is supported. A
compilation error occurs if this is exceeded.
Alternatively, you can assign a program to an available interrupt and have it

executed only when the interrupt is triggered. The User Fault Routine is the only
interrupt available in Micro810 controllers. A program assigned to the User Fault
Routine runs once just prior to the controller going into Fault mode.
The Global System Variables associated with cycles/scans are:

• __SYSVA_CYCLECNT - Cycle counter
• __SYSVA_TCYCURRENT - Current cycle time
• __SYSVA_TCYMAXIMUM - Maximum cycle time since last start.
Execution Rules
This section illustrates the execution of a program. The execution follows eight
main steps within a loop. The loop duration is a cycle time for a program.
1. Scan input variables 1
2. Consume bound variables 2
3. Execute POUs 3
4. Produce bound variables 4
5. Update output variables 5
6. Save retained values 6
7. Process IXL messages 7
8. Sleep until next cycle 8
1
2
3

Program Execution in Micro800 Chapter 6
In a case where bindings are defined, variables consumed by a resource are

updated after the inputs are scanned and the variables produced for other
resources are sent before updating inputs.
When a cycle time is specified, a resource waits until this time has elapsed before
starting the execution of a new cycle. The POUs execution time varies depending
on the number of active steps in SFC programs and instructions such as jumps,
IFs, and returns. When a cycle exceeds the specified time, the loop continues to
execute the cycle but sets an overrun flag. In such a case, the application no longer
runs in real time.
When a cycle time is not specified, a resource performs all steps in the loop then
restarts a new cycle without waiting.
Power Up and First Scan
In Program mode, all analog and digital input variables hold their last state, and
the LEDs are always updated. Also all digital output variables hold their last state
but the digital outputs are off.
When transitioning from Program mode to Run mode, all digital output
variables are cleared.
Two system variables are also available from revision 2 and later.
System Variables for Scan and Powerup on Firmware Release 2 and later
Variable Type Description
_SYSVA_FIRST_SCAN BOOL First scan bit.
Can be used to initialize or reset variables immediately
after every transition from Program to Run mode.
Note: True only on first scan. After that, go to run.
_SYSVA_POWER_UP_BIT BOOL Powerup bit.
Can be used to initialize or reset variables immediately
after download from Connected Components
Workbench or immediately after being loaded from
memory backup module (for example, 2080-MEMBAK-
RTC, 2080-LCD).
Note: True only on the first scan after a powerup, or
running a new ladder for the first time.

Periodic Execution of Programs
It is not recommended that the system variable __SYSVA_TCYCYCTIME be

used to periodically execute all programs as this also causes the communication to
execute at this rate.
WARNING: Communication timeouts may occur if programmed cycle

time is set too slow (for example, 200 ms) to maintain communications.
System Time Variable for Programmed Cycle Time

Variable Type Description
__SYSVA_TCYCYCTIME TIME Programmed cycle time.
Note: Programmed cycle time only accepts values in
multiples of 10 ms. If the entered value is not a
multiple of 10, it will be rounded up to the next
multiple of 10.
Memory Allocation Available memory on Micro810 controllers is shown in the table below.
Memory Allocation for Micro810 Controllers
Attribute Micro810 12-point
Program steps(1) 2K
Data bytes 2 KB
(1) Estimated Program and Data size are “typical” – program steps and variables are created dynamically.
1 Program Step = 12 data bytes.
These specifications for instruction and data size are typical numbers. When a
project is created for Micro800, memory is dynamically allocated as either
program or data memory at build time. This means that program size can exceed
the published specifications if data size is sacrificed and vice versa. This flexibility
allows maximum usage of execution memory. In addition to the user defined
variables, data memory also includes any constants and temporary variables
generated by the compiler at build time.
The Micro800 controllers also have project memory, which gets downloaded by
the Connected Components Workbench software. This embedded file is a copy
of the entire downloaded project, including comments and symbolic variable
names. If too many comments or variable names are contained in the project, a
compile error may occur referring to “embedded file size too large.” If this occurs,
reduce the number of comments and variables in the project.

Program Execution in Micro800 Chapter 6
Guidelines and Limitations Here are some guidelines and limitations to consider when programming a
Micro800 controller using Connected Components Workbench software:
• Each program/Program Organizational Unit (POU) can use up to 64 Kb
of internal address space. It is recommended that you split large programs
into smaller programs to improve code readability, simplify debugging and
maintenance tasks.
• A User Defined Function Block (UDFB) can be executed within another
UDFB, with a limit of 5 nested UDFBs. Avoid creating UDFBs with
references to other UDFBs, as executing these UDFBs too many times may
result in a compile error.
Example of 5 nested UDFBs
Program
UDFB1
UDFB2
UDFB3
UDFB4
UDFB5
• Structured Text (ST) is much more efficient and easier to use than Ladder
Logic, when used for equations. if you are used to using the RSLogix500
CPT Compute instruction, ST combined with UDFB is a great
alternative.
As an example, for an Astronomical Clock Calculation, Structured Text
uses 40% less Instructions.
Display_Output LD:
Memory Usage (Code) : 3148 steps

Memory Usage (Data) : 3456 bytes
Display_Output ST:
Memory Usage (Code) : 1824 steps

Memory Usage (Data) : 3456 bytes
• You may encounter an issue with downloading and compiling a program

over a certain size. One workaround is to use arrays, especially if there are
many variables.

Notes:

Chapter 7
Controller Security
Micro800 security generally has two components:

• Exclusive Access which prevents simultaneous configuration of the
controller by two users
• Controller Password Protection which secures the Intellectual Property
contained within the controller and prevents unauthorized access
Additionally, for Micro810 controllers, the 2080-LCD has a password feature to

secure the LCD display.
IMPORTANT On Micro810 controllers, the controller password feature enforces

password protection on software connections to the controller (that is,
any connection through the Connected Components Workbench
software). The password that is activated on the 2080-LCD restricts
access to the LCD alone and to system functions that are accessible via
the LCD. These are two distinct passwords.
To learn more about activating passwords on the LCD, see Configure LCD
Password on page 61.
Exclusive Access Exclusive access is enforced on the Micro800 controller regardless of whether the
controller is password-protected or not. This means that only one Connected
Components Workbench session is authorized at one time and only an
authorized client has exclusive access to the controller application. This ensures
that only one software session has exclusive access to the Micro800 application-
specific configuration.
Exclusive access is enforced on Micro800 firmware revision 1 and 2. When a

Connected Components Workbench user connects to a Micro800 controller, the
controller is given exclusive access to that controller.
Password Protection By setting a password on the controller, a user effectively restricts access to the
programming software connection of the controller to software sessions that can
supply the correct password. Essentially, Connected Components Workbench
operation such as upload and download are prevented if the controller is secured
with a password and the correct password is not provided.
Micro800 controllers with firmware revision 2 are shipped with no password but
a password can be set through the Connected Components Workbench software
(revision 2 or later).

Chapter 7 Controller Security
The controller password is also backed up to the memory backup module (that is,
2080-MEMBAK-RTC for Micro830 and Micro850, 2080-LCD for Micro810;
and microSD card for Micro820 controllers). If the password in the backup
module is different from the memory backup module, then restore operation will
fail.
TIP For instructions on how to set, change, and clear controller passwords,
see Configure Controller Password on page 47.
Compatibility The Controller Password feature is supported on:

• Connected Components Workbench revision 2 and later
• Micro800 controllers with revision 2 firmware
For users with earlier versions of the software and/or hardware, refer to the
compatibility scenarios below.
Connected Components Workbench revision 1 with Micro800 controller

firmware revision 2
Connection to a Micro800 controller with firmware revision 2 using an earlier

version of the Connected Components Workbench software (revision 1) is
possible and connections will be successful. However, the software will not be
able to determine whether the controller is locked or not.
If the controller is not locked, access to the user application will be allowed,
provided the controller is not busy with another session. If the controller is
locked, access to the user application will fail. Users will need to upgrade to
revision 2 of the Connected Components Workbench software.
Connected Components Workbench revision 2 with Micro800 controller

firmware revision 1
Connected Components Workbench revision 2 is capable of "discovering" and

connecting to Micro800 controllers with firmware revision earlier than revision 2
(that is, not supporting the Controller Password feature). However, the
Controller Password feature will not be available to these controllers. The user
will not be able see interfaces associated with the Controller Password feature in
the Connected Components Workbench session.
Users are advised to upgrade the firmware. See Flash Update the Micro800
Firmware on page 98 for instructions.
Work with a Locked The following workflows are supported on compatible Micro800 controllers
(firmware revision 2) and Connected Components Workbench software
Controller revision 2.

Controller Security Chapter 7
Upload from a Password-Protected Controller
1. Launch the Connected Components Workbench software.

2. In the Project Organizer, expand Catalog by clicking the + sign.
3. Select the target controller.
4. Select Upload.
5. When requested, provide the controller password.
Debug a Password-Protected Controller

To debug a locked controller, you have to connect to the controller through the
Connected Components Workbench software and provide the password before
you can proceed to debug.

2. In the Project Organizer, expand Catalog by clicking the + sign.
3. Select the catalog number of your controller.
5. Build and save your project.
6. Debug.
Download to a Password-Protected Controller

2. Click Connect.
5. Build and save the project, if needed.
6. Click Download.
7. Click Disconnect.
IMPORTANT If communication is lost during the download, repeat the download and
verify that the controller is password protected.
Transfer Controller Program and Lock Receiving Controller
In this scenario, the user needs to transfer user application from controller1
(locked) to another Micro800 controller with the same catalog number. The

transfer of the user application is done through the Connected Components

Workbench software by uploading from controller1, then changing the target
controller in the Micro800 project, and then downloading to controller2. Finally,
controller2 will be locked.
1. In the Project Organizer, click the Discover icon.

The Browse Connections dialog appears.
2. Select target controller1.
3. When requested, enter the controller password for controller1.
4. Build and save the project.
5. Click Disconnect.
6. Power down controller1.
7. Swap controller1 hardware with controller2 hardware.
8. Power up controller2.
9. Click Connect.
10. Select target controller2.
11. Click Download.
12. Lock controller2. See Configure Controller Password on page 47.
Back Up and Restore a Password-Protected Controller
In this workflow, user application will be backed up from a Micro800 controller

that is locked to a memory plug-in device.
1. In the Project Organizer, click the Discover icon.

The Browse Connections dialog appears.
3. When requested, enter the controller password.
4. Back up controller contents to the memory module.
The project in the memory module is now password locked.
5. Remove the memory module from controller1 and insert into controller2.
6. Restore the project from the memory module to controller2.
7. This operation succeeds only if the controller has no password, or the
controller’s password matches the project’s password.
If the controller has no password, the project will be restored to the

controller, then the controller will be set with the same password as the
project.

Controller Security Chapter 7
Configure Controller To set, change, and clear controller password, see the quickstart instructions
Configure Controller Password on page 47.
Password
Recover from a Lost If the controller is secured with a password and the password has been lost, then it
is impossible to access the controller using the Connected Components
Password Workbench software.
To recover, the controller must be set to Program Mode using the keyswitch for
Micro830 and Micro850 controllers, the 2080-LCD for Micro810 controllers, or
the 2080-REMLCD for Micro820 controllers. Then, ControlFlash can be used
to update the controller firmware, which also clears the controller memory. In
Connected Components Workbench software version 10 or later, the Reset
option must be selected for the controller memory to be cleared during the
firmware update. If the Upgrade or Downgrade option is selected, the password is
retained.
ATTENTION: The project in the controller will be lost but a new project
can be downloaded.

99999999.
TIP The number combination 00000000 is used to delete the password.
Password protection blocks access to the System menu and thus offers protection
against the following:
• modification of function relay parameters
• changing between operating modes Run or Stop.
• settings of the real-time clock
• communication with individual device
• modification of system parameters
– set new password
– menu language selection
– input filter
– AI Calibration
– Power Up Behavior
– Memory Module

Use the Micro810 Smart The Micro810 12-point (8 Inputs and 4 Outputs) controller comes with a built-
in smart relay function that can be configured using the optional LCD Display
Relay Functionality and push buttons to control four relay outputs (O00…O03), without using any
software.
Each smart relay block controls one relay output and can be configured using one
of the following instructions:
• TON – On-delay Timing
• TOF – Off-delay Timing
• DOY – Turning on an output if the value of real-time clock is in the range
of Year Time setting.
• TOW – Turning on an output if the value of real-time clock is in the range
of Day Time setting.
• CTU – Count Up
• CTD – Count Down
• TONOF – On-delay timing on a true rung, and then Off-delay timing on
the false rung.
• TP – Pulse Timing
Smart Relay Block Execution Order
The smart relay block that is configured to control output 00 executes first,
followed by the smart relay block for output01, then output 02, with the smart
relay block for output 03 as the last to execute.
For example, if TON is configured to control O00, CTU for O01, TOW for
O02, and another CTU for O03, the execution sequence for the smart relay
instructions is TON (O00) → CTU (O01) → TOW (O02) → CTU (O03).
The default configuration is as follows:
TON for Output 00

CTU for Output 01
TOW for Output 02
DOY for Output 03

Flash Update the IMPORTANT When the controller is in Remote Run mode, and it is password
Micro800 Firmware protected, the user needs to supply the correct password to switch to
Remote Program to enable upgrade.
The Micro810 controller does not include a reset-to-factory-default
button and a mechanical switch to change modes that will override
password protection to allow a flash upgrade.
Thus, it is always important to have the correct passwords available to
switch modes and enable an upgrade.
This quick start will show you how to flash update the firmware for a Micro800
controller using Connected Components Workbench software release 10 or later.
From Connected Components Workbench software release 10 onwards, there

are two options you can select when flash updating the firmware:
• Upgrade or Downgrade – For Micro810 controllers, this option clears the
controller’s existing configuration, Ethernet settings, and password.
• Reset – For Micro810 controllers, this option is not available. Selecting
this option will prompt an error dialog box.
The procedure to flash update the controller is similar for both options.
IMPORTANT To successfully flash update your controller over USB, connect only one
controller to your computer, and do not perform the flash update in a
virtual machine such as VMware.
To begin, launch the Connected Components Workbench software:
1. In the menu, select Device -> Update Firmware -> Upgrade or

Downgrade...
Alternatively, in the Project Organizer, right-click the controller and select
Update Firmware -> Upgrade or Downgrade...
2. If your project does not have a connection path to the controller, the
Connection Browser dialog appears. Select your controller, then click OK.

3. In the Upgrade or Downgrade Firmware dialog box, select the desired

Target Revision to flash update the controller.
If the desired firmware revision is not shown in the drop-down list, you can
download that firmware revision by clicking the “Get the firmware files
online” link.
You can also change the Connection Path by clicking the “Change” link.
4. When you have confirmed the settings, click Update to begin flash
updating the controller.
The update progress is shown in the dialog box.
5. After the update is completed, the status is shown in the dialog box.

to communicate with the Micro810 controller.

Forcing I/O Forcing is only possible with I/O and does not apply to user defined variables and
non-I/O variables.
Inputs are logically forced, so LED status indicators do not show forced values,
but the inputs in the user program are forced.
Unlike inputs, outputs are physically forced, so LED status indicators do show
forced values. The user program does not use forced values.
The following diagram illustrates forcing behavior.
User Program
Physical Logical Logical Physical

Force Force
Inputs Inputs Outputs Outputs
Normal
Variables
• Normal, non-physical internal variables cannot be forced
Check if Forces (locks) are Enabled
If Connected Components Workbench is available, check the Variable Monitor

while debugging online. Forcing is performed by first Locking an I/O variable
and then setting the Logical Value for Inputs and Physical Value for Outputs.

Remember you cannot force a Physical Input and cannot force a Logical Output.
In many cases, the front of the controller is not visible to the operator and
Connected Components Workbench is not online with the controller. If you
want the force status to be visible to the operator, then the User Program must
read the force status using the SYS_INFO function block and then display the
force status on something that the operator can see, such as the human machine
interface (HMI), or stack light. The following is an example program in
Structured Text.
If the front of the controller is visible, and not blocked by the cabinet enclosure,
Micro830 and higher controllers have a force LED indicator.
I/O Forces After a Power Cycle
After a controller is power cycled, all I/O forces are cleared from memory.

GAIN_PID Data Type

Parameter Type Description
DirectActing BOOL Types of acting:
TRUE = Direct acting, output moves same direction as error. That is,
the actual process value is greater than the SetPoint and the
appropriate controller action is to increase the output. For example,
Chilling.
FALSE = Reverse acting, output moves opposite direction as error.
That is, the actual process value is greater than the Setpoint and the
appropriate controller action is to decrease the output. For example,
Heating.
ProportionalGain REAL Proportional gain for PID (>= 0.0001).
Proportional gain for PID (P_Gain)
A higher proportional gain causes a larger change in the output
based upon the difference between the PV (measured process value)
and SV (set point value). The higher the gain, the faster the error is
decreased, but this may result in instability such as oscillations. The
lower the gain, the slower the error is decreased, but the system is
more stable and less sensitive to large errors. The P_Gain usually is
the most important gain to adjust and the first gain to adjust while
tuning.

IPID Function Block Appendix D
GAIN_PID Data Type

TimeIntegral REAL Time integral value for PID (>= 0.0001).
Time integral value for PID
A smaller integral time constant causes a faster change in the output
based upon the difference between the PV (measured process value)
and SV (set point value) integrated over this time. A smaller integral
time constant decreases the steady state error (error when SV is not
being changed) but increases the chances of instability such as
oscillations. A larger integral time constant slows down the response
of the system and make it more stable, but PV approaches the SV at a
slower rate.
TimeDerivative REAL Time derivative value for PID (> 0.0).
Time derivative value for PID (Td)
A smaller derivative time constant causes a faster change in the
output based upon the rate of change of the difference between PV
(measured process value) and SV (set point value). A smaller
derivative time constant makes a system more responsive to sudden
changes in error (SV is changed) but increases the chances of
instability such as oscillations. A larger time constant makes a
system less responsive to sudden changes in error and the system is
less susceptible to noise and step changes in PV. TimeDerivative (Td)
is related to the derivative gain but allows the derivative contribution
to PID to be tuned using time so the sample time must be taken into
consideration.
DerivativeGain REAL Derivative gain for PID (>= 0.0).
Derivative gain for PID (D_Gain)
A higher derivative gain causes a larger change in the output based
upon the rate of change of the difference between the PV (measured
process value) and SV (set point value). A higher gain makes a system
more responsive to sudden changes in error but increases the
chances of instability such as oscillations. A lower gain makes a
system less responsive to sudden changes in error and makes the
system less susceptible to noise and step changes in the PV.
If derivative gain is set to zero, it disables the derivative
portion of the PID.
AT_Param Data Type

Load REAL Load parameter for auto tuning. This is the output value when
starting AutoTune.
Deviation REAL Deviation for auto tuning. This is the standard deviation used to
evaluate the noise band needed for AutoTune (noise band = 3*
Deviation)(1)
Step REAL Step value for AutoTune. Must be greater than noise band and less
than ½ load.
ATDynamSet REAL Waiting time in seconds before abandoning auto tune.
ATReset BOOL Determines whether the output value is reset to zero after an
AutoTune sequence:
TRUE = Reset output to zero.
FALSE = Leaves output at Load value.
(1) The application engineer can estimate the value of ATParams.Deviation by observing the value of Proces input.
For example, in a project that involves the control of temperature, if the temperature stabilizes around 22 °C,
and a fluctuation of 21.7…22.5 °C is observed, the value of ATParams.Deviation will be (22.5-21.7)/2=0.4.

How to AutoTune Before you autotune, you need to:

• Verify that your system is constant when there is no control. For example,
for temperature control, process value should remain at room temperature
when there is no control output.
• Configure the set point to 0.
• Set Auto Input to False.
• Set the Gain parameter as follows:
GAIN Parameter Values
GAIN Parameter Value
DirectActing According to operation:
TRUE (for example, Cooling), or
FALSE (for example, Heating)
DerivativeGain 0.5
ProportionalGain 0.0001
TimeIntegral 0.0001
TimeDerivative 0.0
• Set the AT_Parameter as follows:

AT_Parameter Values
AT Parameter Recommendation
Load Every ‘Load’ provides a saturated process value over a period of time.
Adjust the load to the value for the saturated process value you want.
IMPORTANT: If a load of 40 gives you a process value of 30 °C over a

period of time, and you want to tune your system to 30 °C, you should set
the load to 40.
Deviation This parameter plays a significant role in the autotune process. The
method of deriving this value is explained later in this section. It is not
necessary to set this parameter prior to autotuning. However, if you
already know the deviation, it is fine to set it first.
Step Step value should be between 3*Deviation and ½ load. The step provides
an offset for the load during autotuning. It should be set to a value high
enough to create a significant change in process value.
ATDynamSet Set this value to a reasonably long time for the autotune process. Every
system is different, so allow more time to a system with a process value
that takes longer to react to change.
ATReset Set this parameter to TRUE to reset the output to zero after the autotune
process completes.
Set this parameter to FALSE to leave the output at load value after the
autotune process completes.
During autotune, the controller will automatically set the process value to zero.
To autotune, perform the following steps:
1. Set the Initialize input to TRUE.

2. Set the AutoTune input to TRUE.
3. Wait for the Process input to stabilize or reach a steady state.

4. Note the temperature fluctuation of the process value.

5. Calculate deviation value with reference to the fluctuation. For example, if
the temperature stabilizes around 22 °C (72 °F) with a fluctuation of
21.7…22.5 °C (71…72.5 °F), the value of ‘ATParams.Deviation’ is:
22.5 - 21.7 72.5 - 71

For °C: = 0.4 For °F: = 0.75
2 2
6. Set the deviation value, if you have not set it yet.

7. Change the initialize input to FALSE.
8. Wait until the ‘AT_Warning’ shows 2. The autotune process is successful.
9. Get the tuned value from the ‘OutGains’.
How Autotune Works
The auto tune process begins when the ‘Initialize’ is set to FALSE (Step 7.) At
this moment, the control output increases by the amount of ‘Step’ and the process
waits for the process value to reach or exceeds ‘first peak’.
First peak is defined as:
For Direct Operation: First peak = PV1 - (12 x Deviation)

For Reverse Operation: First peak = PV1 + (12 x Deviation)
Where PV1 is the process value when Initialize is set to FALSE.
Once the process value reaches first peak, the control output reduces by the
amount of Step and waits for the process value to drop to the second peak.
Second peak is defined as:
For Direct Operation: Second peak = PV1 - (3 x Deviation)

For Reverse Operation: Second peak = PV1 + (3 x Deviation)
Once the process value reaches or falls below second peak, calculations
commence and a set of gain will be generated to parameter OutGains.
Troubleshooting an You can tell what is going on behind the autotune process from the sequences of
control output. Here are some known sequences of control output and what it
Autotune Process means if autotune fails. For the ease of illustrating the sequence of control output,
we define:
Load: 50
Step: 20

Output Sequence 1: 50 -> 70 -> 30

Sequence Condition Autotune Result Action for Autotune Fail
Process value reached 'first peak' and Likely successful NA
'second' peak in time
Output Sequence 2: 50 -> 70 -> 50

Process value not able to reach Likely unsuccessful Reduce Deviation or Increase Step
'first peak'
Output Sequence 3: 50 -> 70 -> 30 -> 50

Process value not able to reach Likely unsuccessful Increase Deviation or increase Step
second peak
Output Sequence 4: 50 -> 70

Process value not able to reach First Likely unsuccessful Increase ATDynamSet
peak in time
PID Application Example

Water In
Water Level
Tank Water Out
The illustration above shows a basic water level control system, to maintain a
preset water level in the tank. A solenoid valve is used to control incoming water,
filling the tank at a preset rate. Similarly, outflowing water is controlled at a
measurable rate.
IPID Autotuning for First and Second Order Systems
Autotune of IPID can only work on first and second order systems.

A first order system can be described by a single independent energy storage

element. Examples of first order systems are the cooling of a fluid tank, the flow of
fluid from a tank, a motor with constant torque driving a disk flywheel or an
electric RC lead network. The energy storage element for these systems are heat
energy, potential energy, rotational kinetic energy and capacitive storage energy,
respectively.
This may be written in a standard form such as f(t) = τdy/dt + y(t), where τ is the
system time constant, f is the forcing function and y is the system state variable.
In the cooling of a fluid tank example, it can be modeled by the thermal

capacitance C of the fluid and thermal resistance R of the walls of the tank. The
system time constant will be RC, the forcing function will be the ambient
temperature and the system state variable will be the fluid temperature.
A second order system can be described by two independent energy storage

elements which exchange stored energy. Examples of second order systems are a
motor driving a disk flywheel with the motor coupled to the flywheel via a shaft
with torsional stiffness or an electric circuit composed of a current source driving
a series LR (inductor and resistor) with a shunt C (capacitor). The energy storage
elements for these systems are the rotational kinetic energy and torsion spring
energy for the former and the inductive and capacitive storage energy for the
latter. Motor drive systems and heating systems can be typically modeled by the
LR and C electric circuit.

PID Code Sample
The illustration above shows sample code for controlling the PID application
example shown before. Developed using Function Block Diagrams, it consists of
a pre-defined function block, IPIDCONTROLLER, and four user-defined
function blocks. These four are:
• PID_OutputRegulator
This user-defined function block regulates the output of
IPIDCONTROLLER within a safe range to ensure that there is no
damage to the hardware used in the process.
IF RMIN ≤ RIN ≤ RMAX, then ROUT = RIN,

IF RIN < RMIN, then ROUT = RMIN,
IF RIN > RMAX, then ROUT = RMAX.
• PID_Feedback
This user defined function block acts as a multiplexer.
IF "FB_RST" is false, FB_OUT=FB_IN;

If "FB_RST" is true, then FB_OUT=FB_PREVAL.
• PID_PWM
This user defined function block provides a PWM function, converting a
real value to a time related ON/OFF output.
• SIM_WATERLVL
This user defined function block simulates the process depicted in the
application example shown before.

IMPORTANT User Program Scan Time is Important

The autotuning method needs to cause the output of the control loop to
oscillate. In order to identify the oscillation period, the IPID must be
called frequently enough to be able to sample the oscillation adequately.
The scan time of the user program must be less than half the oscillation
period. In essence the Shannon, or Nyquist-Shannon, or the sampling
theorem must be adhered to.
In addition, it is important that the function block is executed at a
relatively constant time interval.
