SENA RHIO 10 is driver to communicate with I/O device of SENA TECHNOLOGY Corp., Ltd in Korea.

 

1. Read settings

 

<Figure 1> is read setting example of SENA RHIO 10 driver.

<Figure 1> Read setting example of SENA RHIO 10 driver

Device part of  <Figure 1> input Device type(TCP/IP), IP address of PLC(192.168.1.135), service port of TCP/IP protocol ( 6001 ), respectively, according to setting of device.

 

Reference) IP address, service port number and etc of RHIO 10 device are set by 'RHIO Manager' program which is supported at SENA TECHNOLOGY Corp., Ltd.

 

SENA RHIO 10 driver's read schedule

Read schedule setting parameters are as follows : 

1) Station - Don't care. Set as 0.

2) Read Command - Data type to read.

I/O, ¡¦ = Reading Input/Output(I/O) data.

3) Read Start Address - Don't care. Set as 0.

4) Save Start Address for Communication Server - Saving start address of Communication Server.

5) Read Size - The number of data to read. ( Fixed to 1, Save in order of <Table 1> )

 

Read schedule example)

READ,     0,   I/O,     0,    0,   1,

 

<Table 1> is read value save address and contents of SENA RHIO 10 communication driver's reading I/O data.

Save Address

Save Contents

Data Range

Save Addr + 0

Control State

0 = Normal, 1 = Run Mode or(Set Mode),

9 = Abnormal

Save Addr + 1

ADC Input 1 status

0 = OFF, 1 = ON(Switch Input),

9 = Level Mode

Save Addr + 2

ADC Input 1 value

0 ~ 1023

Save Addr + 3

ADC Input 2 status

0 = OFF, 1 = ON(Switch Input),

9 = Level Mode

Save Addr + 4

ADC Input 2 value

0 ~ 1023

When you click Add button or Edit button in dialog box of <Figure 2>, dialog box of <Figure 3> is shown.

 

2. Writing settings

 

You can do DO output by using writing settings. 

 

Digital Write

Digital write setting parameters are as follows :

1) Port             Connected port number. (Not COM number)

2) Station         Station number of device. Don't care. Set as 0.

3) Address      If Extra1 is DO, it is DO address between 0 and 9(DO 1 ~ DO 10).

                        Etc : Don't care. Set as 0.

4) Extra1          Set type to output.

                        DO : DO output,

                        SET : Change as Setting mode(there is no output value),

                        RUN : Change as Run(Default) mode(there is no output value).

5) Extra2          Don't care. Set as blank or 0.

 

Write example 1)

PORT : 0   STATION : 0   ADDRESS : 0000  EXTRA1 : DO  EXTRA2 : Blank

If you set as above and write digital value, you can control(ON/OFF) DO no.1 of SENA RHIO 10 device connected with no.0 port.

 

Write example 2)

PORT : 0   STATION : 0   ADDRESS : 0005  EXTRA1 : DO  EXTRA2 : Blank

If you set as above and write digital value, you can control(ON/OFF) DO no.6 of SENA RHIO 10 device connected with no.0 port.

 

Analog Write

Analog Write and Digital Write have same setting, output value is only different. But it can't DO output. (Only possible to output DO no.1)

 

3. Connecting basic power and communication cable of device

Connect basic power and communication cable of SENA RHIO 10 device, as follows.

 

Basic power connection

Connect 9 ~ 48 VDC (max 5W) power to PWR-A( + ) PWR-B( - ) terminal of SENA RHIO 10 device.

 

Communication cable connection

Connect general Ethernet communication cable to RJ-45 Ethernet terminal of SENA RHIO 10 device.

 

<Figure 4> is example of connecting basic power, communication cable and etc to RHIO 10 device.
