Hello friends!
Continuing the series of articles using the Q-Series PLC in combination with the QJ71C24N Communication Module to control different devices through the Modbus-RTU protocol, today plc247.com will continue to guide you to control the “Siemens Sinamics V20” inverter.
In this article, I will guide you and make the sample program in the simplest and easiest way possible.
QJ71C24N & Sinamics V20 “Connection Diagram”
Siemens Sinamics V20 inverter has a built-in RS485 communication port, so we can connect to it simply and easily.
Siemens Sinamics V20 “Modbus RTU” Configuration
In addition to the basic parameters of the inverter installed according to the motor (frequency, current, voltage…) we need to install the following communication parameters so that the Sinamics V20 inverter can control and monitoring using the Mdobus RTU protocol.
Siemens Sinamics V20 Registers Adress
+ VFD Control Address = 99 (dec)
- Set Word 40100 = 1151 >>> Forward Run
= 3199 >>> Reverse Run
= 1150 >>> Stop
= 1278 >>> VFD Reset
+ VFD Frequency Reference Address = 100 (dec)
(Speed Reference = “0 to 100%” = “0 to 16384 dec”)
- Frequency Output Address = 23 (dec)
- Speed Output Address = 24 (dec)
- Current Output Address = 25 (dec)
QJ71C24N “Modbus RTU” Parameters Setting
To configure the Mitsubishi QJ71C24N Module we do the following:
+ Step 1: Create New Project folow your PLC
+ Step 2: I/O Configuration
+ Step 3: Channel.2 (RS485) Parameters Setting
+ Step 4: Write parameters to Module QJ71C24N
+ Step 5: Disable “Echoback”
Echoback refers to the function in which data transmitted by RS-485 (2 wires) is returned about the local station’s RDA and RDB.
>>> Set G450 = 1 (Disable Echoback) / = 0 (Enable Echoback)
QJ71C24N & Siemens V20 “Modbus Configuration”
+ Go to Serial Communication Module Tool
+ Protocol Add/Read/Write
In this project I configure as follows (you should configure like me if you are new to this Module)
1. Protocol No.1
>>> Func = 06 (Write Single Registers)
+ Slave Address = “D100”
+ Register Adress = “D101”
+ Register Value = “D110”
+ “Comm. Error” = “D300”
2. Protocol No.2
>>> Func = 03 (Read Holding Registers)
+ Slave Address = “D200”
+ Starting Address = “D201”
+ Quantity of Registers = “D202”
+ Registers Value Response = “D210” (From D210…D335 depending on the number of Registers (D202) to read)
+ “Comm. Error” = “D300”
Note: Need to set “Receive Wait Time” (if Set = 0, error communication will be Infinite Wait) you can configure it like this:
