Three concepts of S-LINK

Quick

construc

tion

Space-effective

䢇 The use of wires is greatly

reduced and the number of

connecting terminal blocks

is minimized, resulting in

large reduction in cost, as

well as, the waste generat-

ed during wiring.

䢇

The layout of devices be-

comes flexible and the

design is easier due to the

‘T’-branch multi-drop wiring.

䢇 Since the wiring is simple,

miswiring is also sharply

decreased.

䢇

The time required for equip-

ment wiring is greatly reduced,

contributing to reduction in

electrical works cost.

Further, design and mainte-

nance personnel expenses

are also sharply decreased.

䢇 Sensors can be easily con-

nected with plug-in connec-

tion.

• Connection by plug-in unit

• Connection by connector

䢇 The addition of an I/O out-

put device is easy. Con-

struction can be done in

a short time.

䢇 The control box can be of

smaller size since connect-

ing terminal blocks are not

needed.

䢇 S-LINK devices are com-

pact. Hence, the control

box can be mounted in a

tight space.

䢇 It contributes to the minia-

turization of the machine

due to reduced wiring

space.

The S-LINK system can be independently

S-LINK Transmits 128 I/Os on Two Signal Lines and Realizes ‘T’-branch Multi-drop Wiring (Tree Architecture)

S-LINK enables transmission of 128 I/Os of sensors, switches, or actuators on two signal lines up to 200m (400m with the

booster). The S-LINK lines can be branched off in any direction, at any point, so that a flexible cable layout is possible. The

original SUNX signal processing enables highly reliable ‘T’-branch multi-drop wiring.

Caution: The connectable I/O number might decrease from 128 points depending upon the type of devices and their place of connection.

• Since the S-LINK system can operate even when the

PLC is disconnected, the system construction time can be

drastically reduced by parallel development of the soft-

ware (PLC program) and the hardware (equipment

assembly, I/O device check). Further, in case of an error,

it can be immediately found whether the error is on the

PLC side or the I/O device side.

•A handy monitor which can check I/O devices is available.

The handy monitor can be hooked up to the S-LINK sig-

nal transmission lines at any place. I/O states can be

checked in batches of 16. The handy monitor is also

incorporated with the S-LINK controller functions, so that,

for example, it can perform an I/O check on conveyor sys-

tem segments, still under assembly, even without the

S-LINK controller.

Easy Input/Output Check

•The S-LINK system automatically

turns its power off when excess

current flows through the signal

lines due to a short-circuit.

•The double code collation makes

the signal transmission secure

and reliable.

•S-LINK’s unique signal transmis-

sion, large voltage amplitude (0 -

24V) and wide pulse width (35!s)

provide high noise immunity. The

signal transmission time is 5ms

approx. for 32 points, or 11ms

approx. for 128 points.

Highly Reliable Signal Transmission

•The loop wiring maintains the sig-

nal transmission over the entire

system even if the loop may break

at any one place.

•

If the cable breaks somewhere, the

controller finds out the addresses

of all disconnected units, and dis-

plays their first address. Specify-

ing error addresses shortens the

repairing time.

Globally, fieldbus networks for FA are spreading rapidly to realize wire-saving connections between PLCs of different manu-

factures, or high performance devices, such as, temperature controllers, graphic panels etc. SUNX has developed gateway

controllers which enable connection of S-LINK to the fieldbus networks being used in different parts of the world. Hence,

wire-saving connections and other advantages of S-LINK can be realized even when using fieldbus networks.

• Seamless connection to fieldbus networks

•S-LINK can be connected seamlessly to fieldbus networks

using the S-LINK gateway controllers.

• Advanced wire-saving connection with S-LINK and

fieldbus networks

•Wire-saving connections can be realized even when using

fieldbus networks. An efficient wire-saving network can be

implemented by connecting distributed bit level data I/O

devices, such as, sensors, switches, etc., by S-LINK.

• Personal computer can be used as master (for JPCN-1/RS-485)

•PC/AT or compatible (ISA bus), NEC PC/FC-98 series personal computer or PC/104 bus board can be used as a master

unit. Long distance and multi-point control is easily possible with a personal computer when the JPCN-1/RS-485 master

board and the S-LINK gateway controller for JPCN-1/RS-485, SL-CU1-485, are used.

•The master boards for personal computers can be used in the following two modes:

•1 S-LINK mode (using RS-485 communication)

•2 JPCN-1 mode

(Please arrange a driver software separately, when using the JPCN-1 mode.)

Advantage of using with higher level networks

• Long distance transmission

The max. transmission distance is as follows.

DeviceNet: 500m, PROFIBUS-DP and CC-Link: 1,200m,

INTERBUS: 13km, JPCN-1/RS-485: 1,000m.

S-LINK can transmit up to 400m using the booster

(SL-BS1A). Hence, a system of total 1,600m can be con-

structed with PROFIBUS-DP or CC-Link (DeviceNet:

900m, INTERBUS: 13.4km).

• Total I/O channels 8,064 Nos.

Up to 99 Nos. of S-LINK gateway controllers can be con-

nected as slaves to one PROFIBUS-DP master unit

[DeviceNet: 63 Nos., INTERBUS: 256 Nos., JPCN-1/

RS-485: 31 Nos., CC-Link: 32 Nos. (Note 2)]. Since max.

128 Nos. I/O devices can be connected to one S-LINK

gateway controller, I/O signal of total 12,672 channels

[DeviceNet: 8,064 channels, INTERBUS: 4,096 channels

(Note 3), JPCN-1/RS-485: 3,968 channels, CC-Link:

2,048 channels (Note 2)] can be transmitted.

Since the higher level networks mostly use cascade wiring with

shielded twisted pair cable, the flexibility in wiring and wiring

operations have not improved. In S-LINK, ‘T’-branch flexible lay-

out can be realized using different types of quick connecting

hook-up connectors, and distributed ON/OFF data devices, such

as, switches, sensors, etc., can be efficiently wired. In this man-

ner, an exceedingly efficient wire-saving link system can be real-

ized in combination with higher level networks.

Notes: 1) The total No. of I/O channels may be less than the maximum No.

mentioned above depending on the master unit capacity. Also, the

No. of devices connectable to the S-LINK system may be less than

128 Nos., depending on the type of devices and places connected.

Notes: 2)

In case of the S-LINK gateway controller for CC-Link, the No. of

controllable I/O channels varies with the No. of units connected to

CC-Link.

Notes: 3) For INTERBUS, one master unit can control up to 4,096 I/O chan-

nels only.

In a product transportation equip-

ment, there are many input and

output devices spread over various

places. Although wire-saving has

always been desired to reduce the

cost and shorten the time of instal-

lation, long distance transmission

and product reliability are essential.

S-LINK allows a cable length of

200m, normally, and 400m along with

a booster. The double code collation

check plus high noise immunity

enable signal transmission reliability.

Furthermore, the S-LINK tree wiring

architecture enables you to branch off

sub-trunk lines or branch lines and

hook-up input and output devices,

anywhere you like. Test and installa-

tion block-by-block, and layout change

after installation are quite simple jobs.

Parking garage AGV

The S-LINK system is very suitable to wire up car detection

sensors in a large parking garage.

It reduces wires and installation time.

The signal transmission to AGV from a stationary controller has been very difficult.

As the S-LINK system allows use of commercial cables in the system, the AGV

equipped with the sensors and actuators can be linked with the stationary controller

via one flexible cable. Besides, the S-LINK alarm capability, that generates an error

output for a cable break, enables quick repair and ensures the system reliability.

APPLICATIONS

Automatic assembly machine

In an automatic assembly machine,

there are many input and output

devices distributed in various tight

spaces. As the machine becomes

more complex, the task of reducing

the cable volume becomes more dif-

ficult. Wire-saving is the primary

requirement, but reliability of signal

transmission is also indispensable.

In the S-LINK loop wiring, the system

maintains signal transmission even

when the loop may break at any one

place. In the S-LINK standard wiring,

the controller reveals disconnected

device addresses when the signal

transmission line may break. Further,

even if excess current may flow by a

short-circuit between the signal

transmission lines, the controller

shuts down the entire system.

Plug-in connection

Parts delivery systemHandler

An IC handler uses many sensors. The S-LINK system

contributes in reducing wires in order to miniaturize the

machine.

In a parts-taking verification system, the parts shelves are

equipped with a number of area sensors at the front. The

inputs equal the number of shelves and if job indicators are

used, there are an equal number of outputs.

The S-LINK system wires up all the area sensors with

effective space and wire saving.
