Introduction | Planning an application

1 Orientation guide
1.1 Introduction
1
This manual covers the technical aspects of the PCD3.M2x30V6 The following terms
are used frequently:
● CPU Central processing unit: the heart of the Saia PCD®
● LIOs Local I/Os: these are connected to the CPU via the I/O bus
● Modules Input/output elements, mounted in a housing, matched to the
PCD3 system
● Module holder CPU or LIO, to which modules may be attached
The aim of this section is to present the essentials of planning and installing control
systems with PCD3 components.

1.2 Instructions for connecting Saia-PCD® controllers to the internet

When Saia PCD controllers are connected directly to the internet, they are
also a potential target of cyber attacks. For secure operation, appropriate pro-
tective measures must always be taken.

PCD controllers include simple, built-in protection features. However, secure

operation on the internet is only ensured if external routers are used with a
firewall and encrypted VPN connections.

For more information, please refer to our support site:

Introduction | Planning an application

1.3 Planning an application

The following aspects should be considered when planning PCD3 applications:

● It’s only one module holder allowed 1
■ PCD3.C200 or PCD3.C110 (Connection with cable PCD3.K106/K116)
■ PCD3.C200Z09 or PCD3.C110Z09 (Connection with connector PCD3.K010)
● The internal load current taken by the I/O modules from the +5V and V+ supply
must not exceed the maximum supply current specified for the CPUs or the
LIO PCD3.C110/C110Z09

When planning an application, we recommend the following procedure:

Select the I/O modules according to your requirements. Where possible, use
PCD3 I/O modules with 16 connections; these have 16 red LEDs

I/O Extension

1.4 I/O Extension

Only one extension PCD3.C200 or PCD3.C110 can be connected!

The additional I/Os can be mapped with the de- 1
vice configurator.
The first I/O address on the extension module is
64.

No SPI communication on the extension.

With Profi-S-Net on port 2 or Ethernet the System can also be extended with
PCD3.RIO (PCD3.T760 or PCD3.T660) modules.

PCD3.C110
PCD3.K010 PCD3.C200

For connecting the former extension modules to the Saia PCD®, use the following
cables:
PCD3.K106, 0.7 m
PCD3.K116, 1.2 m
With the new extension modules PCD3.C110Z09 and PCD3.C200Z09 the connector
PCD3.K010 can be used.

PCD3.C110Z09
PCD3.K010 PCD3.C200Z09

In the bottom part of the PCD3.WAC there is a shielding and earthing plate.
The zero-potential (Minus pole) of the 24 V supply is connected to the Minus terminal
of the supply. This should be connected to the earthing bar with the shortest possible
wire (< 25 cm) of 1.5 mm2.
Any shielding of analogue signals or communication cables should also be brought to

Mounting rules

In the bottom part of the PCD3.Compact there is a shielding and earthing plate.

The zero-potential (Minus pole) of the 24 V supply is connected to the Minus terminal
of the supply. This should be connected to the earthing bar with the shortest possible 1
wire (< 25 cm) of 1.5 mm2.

Any shielding of analogue signals or communication cables should also be brought to

the same earth potential, either via a Minus terminal or via the earthing bar.

All Minus connections are linked internally. For problem-free operation, these
connections should be reinforced externally with short wires of 1.5 mm2.

1) The loads handled by the outputs and other consumers are generally more important for sizing the supply than
the internal power leakage of the control
2) When planning PCD3 systems, it is essential to check that the two internal supplies are not overloaded. This
check is especially important when using analogue, counter and positioning modules, as these may have a very
large power consumption.
It is advisable to use the calculation table at www.sbc-support.com.

Start Self-diagnosis for approx. 1 sec. after switching on or after a Restart
Run Normal processing of the user program after Start. Where a programming
unit is connected via a PCD8.K11x in PGU mode (e.g. PG5 in PGU mode),
the CPU automatically goes into the Stop state and not the Run state; this
is for safety reasons
Run conditional Conditional Run state. A condition has been set in the debugger (Run
until...), which has not yet been met
Run with error Same as Run, but with an error message
Run cond. with Same as conditional Run, but with an error message
error
Stop The Stop state occurs in the following cases:
• Programming unit in PGU mode connected when the CPU was switched
on
• PGU stopped by programming unit
• Condition for a COND.RUN has been met
Stop with error Same as Stop, but with an error message
Halt The Halt state occurs in the following cases:
• Halt instruction processed
• Serious error in user program
• Hardware fault
• No program loaded
• no communication module on an S-Bus PGU or
Gateway Master port
System
diagnostics
Reset The RESET state has the following causes:
• Supply voltage too low
• Firmware not starting up

5 Configuration
5.1 General

The following description assumes that the user is familiar with the Saia PG5® soft-
ware.
If not, you are advised to read manual 26/733 “Saia PG5®”.
Software requirements: Saia PG5® V 2.0 or Saia PG5® 1.4.300 with patch 7 or a
higher version.
This chapter shows how to use the onboard IOs of the PCD3 Compact with new
Device Configurator. The Device Configurator defines:
● A cyclically media mapping to enable a link between peripheral I/O modules 5
values and the device resources (Saia PCD® Media).
● Direct access programming instructions to read value from the peripheral input
module and write value to the peripheral output module.
IO handling is always enabled for the PCD3.M2x30V6.
Via direct access there is no bit access command. The minimal access range is
“byte”, therefore we recommend to use the media mapping to read/write all
I/O channels.
For more details refer to the help texts of the Device Configurator.

Interrupt due edge at the input. In case of a configured interrupt with “Ris-
ing and falling edge”, it is possible, trough the reading on the corresponding
Int ‚1’ Input, to define the edge.
Is the corresponding Input 0: → falling edge.
Is the corresponding Input 1: → rising edge
ILOST ‚1’ Interrupt appears, before one already present interrupt was acknowledged.
By reading the interrupt’s status Byte, interrupt will be acknowledged!

The digital outputs of the PCD3 Compact can be mapped in flags or registers.
Select under “Onboard Inputs/Outputs” the line I/O 1, all corresponding properties ap-
pears on the right side.
a) Accessing over flags mapping
1) Enabled Media mapping
2) Select “Media Type” as “Flag”
3) Give first “Media Address” y
The Flags states are transferred to out-
puts DO 0 until DO 11 at COBs end.
Example: y=24 5
● DO0 = F24
● DO1 = F25
● ...
● DO11 = F35
F 36 to F 39 have always ‘0’ bit
b) Accessing over registers mapping
1) Enable Media mapping
2) Select “Media Type” as “Regis-
ter”
3) Give first “Media Address” y
The register’s value (‚Low‘-Bits) is trans-
ferred to outputs DO 0 until DO 11 at
COBs end:
● DO0 = Bit0 of R24
● DO1 = Bit1 of R24
● ...
● DO11 = Bit11 of R24
Bit12 to Bit31 of R24 have always ‘0’
value.

Analogue inputs properties

c) Status information
The status information of the analogue input channels can be mapped to registers or
flags. For each channel one Byte of status information is copied in the selected me-
dia. That means, in case of register use the status information is copied into the low
Byte of the register, in case of flag use the status will be copied into an array of eight
flags. The value of the status is actualized at each COB start.
In the status byte following information is available:
Bit 0: Overrange indicator
Bit 1: Underrange indicator
Bit 2...7: reservedDefinition of range, over/under range and status flag:
Temperature inputs: 5
Type min./max. staus flag range values
Pt 1000 (-50...400 °C) -500 / 4000 limites -500...4000
Ni 1000 (-50...210 °C) -500 / 2100 limites -500...2100
Ni 1000 L&S (-30...140 °C) -500 / 1400 limites -300...1400
Every time the min/max values are reached the min/max status flag will be set.
Resistance, voltage and current inputs:
The total range of values is defined by the type of range:
Type min./max. staus flag range of calculated values
Resistance 0...2500 Ω 0...25000 underrange not available
over range 25500 (102%)

Saia-Burgess Controls AG Maintenance
Changing the battery

6 Maintenance
PCD3 components are maintenance-free, apart from some CPUs, where the battery
needs to be changed occasionally.

PCD3 components do not contain any parts that can be swapped out by the user. If
hardware problems arise, the components should be returned to Saia Burgess Controls.

6.1 Changing the battery

The resources (registers, flags, timers, counters etc), and possibly the user program
and the text strings/DBs, are stored in RAM. To ensure that they are not lost and that
the hardware clock (where present) continues to run when there is a power outage,
the PCD3s are equipped with a buffer battery.
6
CPU type Buffer Buffer time
PCD3.M2xx0 Renata CR 2032 lithium battery 1-3 years1)
1) Depending on the ambient temperature; the higher the temperature, the shorter the buffer time

With new controllers, the batteries are packaged with the units, and have to be
inserted on commissioning. Observe the polarity of the batteries:
CPUs with lithium batteries are not maintenance-free. The battery voltage is moni-
tored by the CPU. The BATT LED lights up and XOB 2 is called if
● the battery voltage is less than 2.4 V
● the battery is missing

We recommend changing the batteries with the Saia PCD® attached to the power
supply, to avoid any loss of data.

● Remove the controller cover

Battery fail LED
● Push the locking clip slightly towards the
front (see arrow on the picture)
● Remove Battery
● Insert Renata CR 2032 coin cell in such a
way that the positive pole is in contact with
the locking clip, the light must switch off.
