MITSUBISHI AnS/QnAS Series

AnS/QnAS Special Function Modules Designed to Meet Diverse Application Needs

Positioning Module For QnASCPU, AnSCPU

Positioning modules are connected to servo amplifiers and servo motors, and controls (calculates and instrucs) positioning of a target object at a preset position or speed. Using with GX Configurator-AP (positioning module setting/moitoring tool for A1SD75P), setting the positioning parameters and data and monitoring are easier.

• Connectable to Mitsubishi SSCNET servo amplifiers up to 30 m with minimum wiring.
• An absolute position system that does not require original point recovery of machine can be constructed easily.
• Equipped with a variety of control methods, such as PTP (Point to Point) control, fixed-feed rate control, and 2-axis linear/circular interpolation control.
• Transmitting parameters to the servo amplifiers and monitoring are capable from the positioning modules.

SSCNET Example

• Open collector/differential driver output type for standard servo amplifiers.
• Being compatible with stepping motors, systems can be constructed depending on applicatioin requirements.
• Equipped with a variety of control methods, such as PTP (Point to Point) control, fixed-feed rate control, and 2-axis linear/circular interpolation control.

SSCNET Example

Analog Input Module For QnASCPU, AnSCPU

The analog input modules convert input analog values (voltage or current) to digital values.

• The most suitable type can be selected based on the number of channels, analog input characteristics, resolution, etc.

Analog Output Module For QnASCPU, AnSCPU

• Can control heating-cooling up to two loops.
• Can control temperature up to four loops.
• A1S64TCTTBW can detect heater disconnection

Temperature Input Module For QnASCPU, AnSCPU

The temperature input modules input temperature data from a temperature sensor and convert the value into the digital value.

• The most suitable type can be selected based on the measurement temperature, number of channels, resolution, etc.

Ethernet Interface Module For QnASCPU, AnSCPU

Communication between the PC and PLC or between PLCs can be performed via Ethernet. The communication program for the PC can be simplified using MELSEC communication support tools (MX Component etc.). The module can be selected based on the interface (10BASE5, 10BASE-T, or 10BASE2).

Serial Communication Module For QnASCPU

An RS-232 or RS-422/RS-485 interface is used to perform data exchange between external devices (PCs, printers, display devices, sensors, measurement devices, etc.) and the PLC CPU. The communication program for the PC can be simplified using MELSEC communication support tools (MX Component etc.).
Have two channels of RS-232 or one RS-232 and one RS-422/485, allowing to set each channel differently Registration of the communication frame and ASCII/BIN code conversion are available based on the external device. Compatible with computer link modules and can be incorporated into a multidrop link.

Computer Link Module For AnSCPU

An RS-232 or RS-422/RS-485 interface is used to perform data exchange between external devices (PCs, printers, etc.) and the PLC CPU. The communication program for the PC can be simplified using MELSEC communication support tools (MX Component etc.).
(Support dedicated, nonprocedural, and bidirectional protocols. Communication based on the application or external device is capable.)

• Monitoring the status of PLC CPU and uploading/downloading device data and programs are possible.

Interrupt Module For QnASCPU, AnSCPU

When an interrupt input occurs. the interrupt module makes PLC CPU execute the specified interrupt programs.

High Speed Counter Module For QnASCPU, AnSCPU

This module counts externally input pulse signals. compares the value with the preset value, and outputs a signal.

• Support low speed input pulses by counting speed switching pin. (A1SD61, A1SD62, A1SD62E, A1SD62D, A1SD62D-S1)
• External output by the comparison results (<, =, >) is available. (A1SD61)
