The input modules process input signals (e.g. from sensors)and transmit these signals via the field bus to the controller.

The output modules are universal electric outputs and controllow-current consuming devices with positive logic, e.g.further valves, bulbs, etc.).

Additional I/O modules for special applications are also avail-able.

Further information on the use of all I/O modules can be foundin the ”Supplementary description of the I/Omodules” for yourvalve terminal.

The pneumatic modules perform the following functions:

– they form the common channels for supply and exhaustair

– they supply electric signals from all the valve solenoidcoils

Work connections 2 and 4 are provided for each valve loca-tion on the individual pneumatic modules.

The valves are supplied with compressed air via the commonchannels on the pneumatic end plate or via special supplymodules. The exhaust air and pilot exhaust are also ventedvia these channels/modules. Further modules for pressuresupply are also available, e.g. for working with different pres-sures or for fitting either MIDI/MAXI valves or ISO valves on anode.

Further information on their use can be found in the ”Pneu-matics manual” for your valve terminal.

– they contain connections/contacts for earthing.

– they contain holes for fitting the valve terminal onto a walland, in the case of type 03, also for the hat-rail clampingunit.

Please noteWhen supplied from the factory, the end plates of the valveterminal are earthed internally. If you wish to extend/con-vert the type 03 valve terminal, earth the end plates of thevalve terminalas described below.

You thereby avoid faults caused by electromagnetic in-fluences.

Earth the end plates after extension/conversion as follows:

1. Right-hand end plate (type 03):In order to earth the right-hand end plate, connect theready-fitted cable on the inside to the appropriate con-tacts on the pneumatic modules or on the node (see dia-gram below).

2. Left-hand end plate:The left-hand end plate is connected conductively to theother components by means of the ready-fitted springcontacts.

Remark:Instructions on earthing the complete valve terminal can befound in the chapter“Installation”.The diagram below shows how the end plates are fitted usingas an example a type 03 valve terminal.

2.2 Fitting onto a hat rail (type 03)

The valve terminal is suitable for fitting onto a hat rail (sup-port rail as per EN 50022). For this purpose there is a guidegroove on the rear of all modules in order that they can behung on a hat rail (see Fig. 2/3).

Caution– Fitting the valve terminal onto a hat rail without a hat-railclamping unit is not permitted.

– If the valve terminal is fitted in a sloping position or if itis subject to vibration, secure the hat-rail clamping unitadditionally:- against sliding down and use the locking screws(item 3) to protect it against unintentional loosening/opening.

Please note– If the valve terminal is fitted in a horizontal position andif the load is at rest, the hat-rail clamping unit can beused without locking screws (item 3).

– If you do not have a hat-rail clamping unit for your valveterminal, you can order this and fit it at a later stage.

– The use of MIDI or MAXI clamping units depends on theend plates available (MIDI/MAXI).

Hat-rail clamping unit (type 03)

In order to fit the valve terminal onto a hat rail, you will re-quire a hat-rail clamping unit. This must be fitted on the rearof the end plates as shown in the diagram below. Pay particu-lar attention to the following:

2. Fitting


Before fitting:

� Make sure that the surfaces for gluing on the rubber feetare clean (cleaned with spirit).

� Make sure that the flat-head screws (item 3) are tight-ened.

After fitting:

� Fasten the lever with a locking screw (item 7).

2. Fitting


Proceed as follows:

1. Ascertain the weight of your valve terminal as describedin chapter 2.3.

2. Make sure that the mounting surface can support thisweight.

3. Fit a hat rail (support rail as per EN 50022 - 35x15; width35 mm, height 15 mm).

4. Fasten the hat rail to the fastening surface at least every100 mm.

5. Hang the valve terminal onto the hat rail. Fasten the valveterminal on both sides with the hat-rail clamping unit toprevent it from tilting or sliding (see Fig. 2/3).

6. If the hat-rail clamping unit is subject to vibration or if it isfitted in a sloping position, fasten it with two lockingscrews (item 3) against unintentional loosening/opening.

2.3 Fitting the valve terminal onto a wall

CautionIn the case of long valve terminals with several I/O mod-ules, use additional support brackets for the modules (ap-proximately every 200 mm). You can thereby avoid:

– overloading the fastening eyes on the left-hand endplate

– the terminal sagging (I/O side)

– natural resonance

Proceed as follows:

1. Ascertain the weight of your valve terminal (weigh orcalculate). Reference values:

4. Fasten the valve terminal, depending on the type, asshown in the following table. The valve terminal can befitted in any desired position.

Type of valve terminal Fastening methods

Type 03 – with four M6 screws on the left-hand andright-hand end plate.

In the case of valve terminals with several I/Omodules, use additional support brackets for themodules (approximately every 200 mm).

Type 04-B – with two M6 screws on the left-hand end plate– with three M6 screws (ISO sizes 1 and 2) or

M8 (ISO size 3) on the adapter plate and onthe right-hand end plate.

If required, use the following additional methodsof fastening:– a fastening screw per manifold sub-base– the hole on the bottom of the manifold sub-

base (“blind hole,” see Pneumatics manual)– In the case of valve terminals with several I/O

modules, use additional support brackets forthe modules (approximately every 200 mm).

3.2.3 Setting the valve terminal address

The valve terminal address is used to determine the RIO ad-dress (rack address and I/O module). The determined RIOaddress depends on the dimension of the respective valveterminal, i. e. quarter or half rack. Tables for the setting of thevalve terminal address in comparison to the RIO address youcan find in chapter 4, “Commissioning”.

The valve terminal address can be set with the address selec-tor switches. The switches are numbered from 0...9. The ar-row on the address selector switches indicates the tens orunits figure of the set valve terminal address.

3. Installation


Proceed as follows:

1. Switch off the power supply.

2. Assign a non-reserved RIO address to the valve terminal(see chap. 4).

3. Use a screwdriver to set the arrow of the relevant addressselector switch to the units or tens figure of the desiredRIO address.

3.3 Switching on the power supply

WarningUse only power units which guarantee reliable electricalisolation of the voltage supplies in accordance with IEC742/EN 60742/VDE 0551 with at least 4 kV isolation resis-tance (Protected Extra-Low Voltage, PELV). Switch powerpacks are permitted providing they guarantee reliableisolation in accordance with EN 60950/VDE 0805.

Remark:By using PELV power units with Festo valve terminals, you canensure protection against electric shock (protection againstdirect and indirect contact) in accordance with EN60204-1/IEC 204. For supplying power to PELV networks youshould use safety transformers with the symbol shown here.The valve terminal must be earthed in order to guarantee theoperation of certain functions (e.g. EMC).

CautionThe load voltage supply for the outputs/valves must befused externally with maximum 10 A (slow blowing). Withthe external fuse you can avoid functional damage to thevalve terminal in the event of a short circuit.

3. Installation


Before connecting the power supply, please note the follow-ing:

� Avoid long distances between the power unit and thevalve terminal. If necessary, calculate the maximum per-mitted distance as described in Appendix A.

� The following apply as orientation values for your valveterminal.

Please noteCommon operating and load voltage supplies for pin 1(electronics and inputs) and pin 2 (outputs/valves):

� In this case, note that the lower tolerance of ±10 % forboth current circuits must be observed.

Check the 24 V load voltage of the outputs while your systemis operating. Make sure that the load voltage of the outputslies within the permitted tolerance even during operation atfull load.

Recommendation:Use a closed-loop power unit.

3. Installation


Potential equalization

The valve terminal has two earth connections for potentialequalization.

– on the load voltage connection (pin 4 incoming socket).

– on the left-hand end plate (M4 thread).

Please note� Always connect the earth potential to pin 4 of the volt-age connection.

� Connect the earth connection of the left-hand end plateto the earth potential with low impedance (short cablewith large cross-sectional area).

� By means of low-impedance connections, you can besure that the housing of the valve terminal and the earthconnection at pin 4 have the same potential and thatthere are no equalizing currents.

You can thereby avoid interference due to electromagneticinfluences and you can ensure electromagnetic compatibil-ity in accordance with the EMC guidelines.

3. Installation


Example of connection

The diagram below shows as an example the connection of acommon 24 V power supply for pin 1 and pin 2. Please notehere that:

– the load voltage supply for the outputs/valves must beprotected with an external fuse of maximum 10 A (slowblowing) against short circuit/overload.

– the power supply for the electronics and the inputsshould be protected with an external fuse of 3.15 Aagainst short circuit/overload (recommendation).

– the power supply for the sensors is also protected withthe fuse fitted (2 A).

– the common tolerance of 24 V DC ¦ 10 % must be ob-served.

– both connections are connected for potential equalizationand that equalizing currents are avoided.

– the load voltage at pin 2 (valves/electric outputs) can beswitched off separately.

3.4 Connecting the RIO interface

There are two connections on the node for connection to theRIO network. One of these connections is intended for thesupply cable; the other is for the continuing bus cable. Thesignal cables are connected with each other internally. Thisenables connections to be made in two different ways:

– Looping the RIO cable from terminal to terminal. Bothplugs are required here.

– Connecting the RIO cable with a T-adapter. Only one plugis required.

CautionBranches (e.g. T-adapters) cause signal reflections whenhigh baud rates are used. This can lead to “telegramfaults” with short “failure times” of the valves.

Recommendation:Please observe the maximum permitted distance of 15 cmbetween the T-adapter and the bus plug, in order to avoidsignal reflections.. Use the ready-made Festo T-adapter FB-TAfor this purpose.

4.1 Configuring and addressing the valve terminal

4.1.1 Ascertaining the configuration data

Before configuring, ascertain the exact number of availableinputs/outputs. A multifunctional valve terminal consists of avarying number of I/Os, depending on what you have or-dered.

Please note� The status bits must be treated like inputs and occupyfour additional input addresses.

� The maximum possible extension of the valve terminal islimited by the addressing limits of the relevant field busprotocol and the mechanical limits of the valve terminal.

� Type 04-BWith this valve terminal, the assignment of the valveaddresses can be set fixed by means of a DIL switch inthe adapter block. This manual valve terminal configur-ation (“Address reserving”) is described in the Appendixof the Pneumatics manual for type 04-B.

4.1.2 Address assignment of the valve terminal

The address assignment of the outputs of a multifunctionalvalve terminal depends on the equipment fitted on the valveterminal. A distinction is made between the following equip-ment fitted:

– valves and digital I/O modules.

– only valves.

– only digital I/O modules.

The basic rules described below apply to the address assign-ment of these fitting variants. A detailed example is givenafter each of these basic rules.

Please noteIf two addresses are assigned for one valve location, thefollowing assignment applies:

– lower-value address: pilot solenoid 14

– higher-value address: pilot solenoid 12

Information on reserving addresses of the valves on the type04-B valve terminal can be found in the Pneumatics manualfor type 04-B.

4. Commissioning


Basic rules of addressing

With mixed fitting, the address assignment of the valves, digi-tal I/O modules and status bits is taken into account.

Outputs

1. The address assignment of the outputs does not dependon the inputs.

2. Address assignment of the valves:– Assign the addresses in ascending order without gaps.– Counting begins on the node from left to right.– Maximum 26 valve solenoid coils can be addressed.

Type 03:– Single-solenoid sub-bases always occupy 2 addresses– Double-solenoid sub-bases always occupy

4 addresses

Type 04-B– Single-solenoid sub-bases always occupy 1 address– Double-solenoid sub-bases always occupy

2 addresses

3. Round up to 4 bits: The following distinction is made:a) If the number of valve addresses can be divided by 4

without remainder, continue with point 4.b) If the number of valve addresses cannot be divided by 4

without remainder, you must round up to 4 bits becauseof the 4-bit orientated addressing. The bits thusrounded up in the address range cannot be used.

4. Commissioning


4. Address assignment of the output modules:After the (4-bit rounded) addresses of the valvesthe digital outputs must be addressed.– Assign the addresses in ascending order without gaps.– Counting begins on the node from right to left.– Counting on the individual modules is made from the

top to the bottom.– Digital output modules occupy 4 or 8 addresses.

Inputs

1. The address assignment of the inputs does not depend onthe outputs.

2. Address assignment of the input modules:– Assign the addresses in ascending order without gaps.– Counting begins on the node from right to left.– On the individual modules from the top to the bottom.– Input modules occupy 4, 8, 12 or 16 addresses.

3. Status bits:The address assignment of the status bits depends on thefitting variants of the inputs and the configuration.

The following always applies:– The status bits are only available if input modules are

connected to the valve terminal and are configured.– Addressing

The status bits are transmitted to the four highest-value positions of the configured address range.

4. Commissioning


When the power supply is switched on, the valve terminalautomatically recognizes all available pneumatic modulesand digital input/output modules and assigns the appropri-ate addresses. If a valve location is not used (cover plate) or ifan input/output is not connected, the relevant address willstill be assigned. The diagram below shows the address as-signment as an example.

6 Round up

Fig. 4/2: Address assignment of a valve terminal with digital I/Os (example type 03)

Remarks on the diagram

– If single-solenoid valves are fitted onto double-solenoidsub-bases of valve terminal type 03 (MIDI/MAXI), fouraddresses will be reserved for valve solenoid coils; thehigher address in each case will then remain unused (seeaddress 3 or Fig. 4/1).

– if unused valve locations are fitted with cover plates, theaddresses will still be assigned (see addresses 12, 13).

4. Commissioning


– Due to the 4-bit orientated addressing of the modularvalve terminal, rounding up to the full four bits is alwaysmade on the last valve location (if the fitting does not al-ready use the full four bits). This means that two ad-dresses cannot perhaps be used (see addresses 14, 15).

Additional notes on valve terminals without I/O modules

If only valves are used, the address assignment will always beas described in the section“Basic rules for addressing” .

Please note– Maximum 26 valve solenoid coils can be addressed.

– The last two locations on the valve side are not roundedup.

– Valve terminals without input modules do not require aconfiguration for the inputs. The status bits are nottherefore available.

Additional instructions for valve terminals without valves

If only electric I/Os are used, the address assignment willalways be as described in the section“Basic rules for addres-sing” .

Please note– Counting begins immediately to the left of the node.

– The last two locations on the valve side are not roundedup.

– The maximum possible amount of equipment which canbe fitted on the valve terminal is limited by the addres-sing limits of the relevant field bus protocol and themechanical limits of the valve terminal (max. 96 inputsor 48 outputs).

4. Commissioning


4.1.3 Address assignment after extension/conversion

A special feature of the multifunctional valve terminal is itsflexibility. If the demands made to the machine change, theequipment fitted on the valve terminal can also be changed.

CautionIf the valve terminal is extended or converted at a laterstage, the input/output addresses may be shifted. Thisapplies in the following cases:

– when one or several pneumatic sub-bases are added orremoved at a later stage (types 03/04-B).

– Type 03: when a pneumatic sub-base for two single-sole-noid valves is replaced by a sub-base for two double-solenoid valves or vice versa.

– Type 04-B: when a pneumatic sub-base for one single-solenoid valve is replaced by a sub-base for a double-solenoid valve or vice versa.

– when additional input/output modules are added be-tween the node and the existing input/output modules.

– when existing input/output modules are removed orreplaced by input/output modules which occupy feweror more input/output addresses.

If the configuration of the inputs is modified, the addresses ofthe status bits may be shifted.

4. Commissioning


The diagram below shows, as an example, the modificationswhich occur to the address assignment when more equip-ment is added to the standard fitting of the previous diagram.2 double-solenoid and 2 single-solenoid sub-bases have beenadded to the valve side.

4.2 ALLEN-BRADLEY – Bus configuration and addressing

4.2.1 General instructions on commissioning

Before commissioning or programming, compile a configur-ation list of all connected field bus slaves. On the basis of thislist, you can:

– carry out a comparison between the NOMINAL and theACTUAL configurations, in order to ascertain if there areany connection faults

– accesss these specifications during the syntax check of aprogram, in order to avoid addressing errors.

Configuration of the valve terminal requires a very accurateprocedure, as different configuration specifications are re-quired for each valve terminal, due, amongst other things, tothe modular structure of each system. Please observe herethe instructions in the following sections.

4.2.2 Switching on the power supply

Please notePlease observe also the switching-on instructions in themanual for your A-B controller.

Some A-B controllers automatically carry out a comparisonbetween the NOMINAL and the ACTUAL configurations whenthe power supply is switched on. For this configuration run itis important that:

– the configuration specifications are complete and correct.

– the power supply for the controller and for the RIO slavesconnected to it are switched on either simultaneously orin the order described below.

4. Commissioning


Common power supply

Switch on the power supply for all the field bus slaves simul-taneously, e.g. by means of a central switch.

Separate power supply

Switch on the power supply in the following sequence:

1. First switch on the power supply for all the field busslaves.

2. Then switch on the power supply for the controller.

If the controller detects a difference between the NOMINALand the ACTUAL configuration, the PLC will react as follows:

– the red LED will light up

Please noteThe Festo valve terminal must have a separate power sup-ply.

4.2.3 Address assignment of the valve terminal

The valve terminal behaves on the RIO network like a remoteI/O block from Allen-Bradley. Please note that the valve ter-minal must be configured differently, depending on thenumber of inputs/outputs.

Valve terminal A-B configuration

up to 28 inputs (+ 4 status bits)and up to 32 outputs

5.1.4 Testing the valves

WarningBefore starting the test, switch off the compressed air sup-ply to the valves.

You can then avoid undesired or dangerous movements ofthe actuators.

Caution– This test function runs automatically in the valve ter-minal. All the valves are switched on/off cyclically.

– None of the programmed lockings or further switchingconditions will be taken into account.

The following valve tests can be carried out on the valve ter-minal. The valves will be switched on/off cyclically.

Test routine Meaning

parallel All the valves will be switched onand off at the same time at 1second intervals.

serial All the valves will be switched onand off one after the other.

Fig. 5/6: Test routine for valves

This test routine repeats itself until the power supply to theterminal is switched off.



Starting the test routine

1. Switch off the operating voltage and the load voltage sup-plies (pins 1 and 2).

2. Open the node in accordance with chapter 3.2, “Openingand closing the node”.

3. Note the setting of the address selector switch and theDIL switch elements.

4. Set address 99 and set DIL switch elements 1 and 2 toOFF.

5. Switch on the power supplies (pins 1 and 2).

6. Set the test routine on the address selector switch as de-sired.

Test routine Set the address

parallel 0, 1 or 2

serial 3

Fig. 5/7: Setting the test routine

7. Start: Set DIL switch elements 1 and 2 to ON.

If faults occur when the test routine is started, the green LEDon the node will flash quickly. The procedure must then berepeated.

Stopping the test routine

1. Switch off the operating voltage and the load voltage sup-plies (pins 1 and 2) of the valve terminal.

2. Reset the address selector switch and DIL switch el-ements 1 and 2 to the starting position.



5.2 Status bits

The valve terminal provides 4 status bits for diagnosis via theRIO network.

Please noteThe four status bits of the valve terminal are only availableif the valve terminal is fitted with input modules.

The status bits are configured like inputs and always occupythe four highest-value addresses of the available addressrange.

5.2.1 Short circuit/overload

In the event of a short circuit or overload, “Short circuit/over-load” will be entered in the four status bits of the error codein the node.

Short circuit/overload at an I/O module

Valve terminals types 03 or 04-B can be fitted with the follow-ing I/O modules:

– output modules

– high-current output modules

– multi I/O modules

– input modules

– input modules with fuse

The reaction of these modules to a short circuit/overload isdescribed in the “Supplementary description of the I/O mod-ules”.



5.3 Error treatment

5.3.1 Reaction to errors in the control system

The outputs of the valve terminal are switched off in the fol-lowing cases:

– Transmission errors

– The controller is switched from “Run mode” to “Programmode”

– Cable fracture

CautionThe switch-off reaction differs according to the softwareversion in the FB8 terminal node.

5.3.2 Short circuit/overload at an output module

The following happens if there is a short circuit or overload atan output:

– the digital output will be switched off

– the red LED will light up

– the error bit “Short circuit/overload“ in the diagnosticbyte will be set to “logical 1”

– the error code “Short circuit/overload” will be entered inthe status bits.

In order to activate the output again, proceed as follows:

Step Explanation

Eliminate short circuit/overload

Reset output to “logical 0” � Manual (control)� automatically in the PLC pro-

gramThe error bit in the diagnosticword of the valve terminal isreset to “logical 0”.

The output can then be reset to “logical 1”. If the short circuitstill exists, the output will be switched off again.



5.3.3 Reaction to faults in the control system

5.4 Type 04-B: Fuses for the pilot solenoids

The pilot solenoid coils of the valve terminals of type 04-B arefused separately with (quick acting) 0.315 A fuses. Thesefuses are situated on the printed circuit board (behind acover) in each manifold sub-base. Each single-solenoid mani-fold sub-base is fitted with one fuse; each double-solenoidmanifold sub-base is fitted with two fuses.

Replacing defective/burnt through 0.315 A fuses

In order to replace burnt through fuses, proceed as follows(note also Fig. 5/8).

1. Switch off the compressed air supply and the power sup-ply (connections 1 and 2).

2. Open the cover of the manifold sub-base.

3. Carefully remove the defective/burnt through fuse fromits base (see diagram).

4. Insert a new (quick-acting) 0.315 A fuse.

5. Close the cover.

A.2 Cable length and cross-sectional area

Please noteIt is assumed here that the user is already familiar with theinformation contained in the chapters “Installation” in thismanual. The following information is therefore aimed ex-clusively at personnel trained in electro-technology.

A load-dependent drop in voltage occurs on all three cablesof the power supply to a valve terminal. This can cause thevoltage at pin 1 or pin 2 of the power supply connection to beoutside the permitted tolerance.

Recommendation:

� Avoid long distances between the power unit and thevalve terminal.

� Calculate suitable cable lengths and cross-sectional areaswith the aid of the graphs or formulae below. When doingthis please note the following:– the graphs provide approximate values for cross

sectional areas 1.5 and 2.5 mm2.– the formulae provide exact values for any cross

section.

Please noteIn the following graphs and formulae it is assumed that thecross sections of the power supply cables (pins 1, 2 and 3)are the same.



Calculating with the graph

Proceed as follows:

1. Calculate the maximum current consumption of the out-puts/valves (I2).

2. Calculate the lowest voltage to be expected during oper-ation (VBmin) on the power unit. When doing this, pleasenote:– the load dependency of the power unit– the fluctuations in the primary mains voltage

3. Read off the permitted cable length for your cross sectionin the relevant table.Example for 1.5 mm2:VBmin = 22.8 V, I2 = 2 A; Lmax = 25 m

Calculating with a formula

Proceed as follows:

1. Calculate the maximum current consumption of the inputsand electronics (I1) as well as of the outputs/valves (I2).

2. Calculate the lowest voltage to be expected during oper-ation (Vmin) on the power unit. When doing this, pleasenote:– – the load dependency of the power unit– – the fluctuations in the primary mains voltage

3. Enter the values in the formula below. The equivalent cir-cuit diagram and the example explain the correlation.

Formula for cable length:

L ≤

(VBmin - 21.6 V) � A � �CU

2 ¡ I2 + I1

¡

This means:

– 21.6 V VVALVE TERMINAL = 24 V ± 10%, minimum:≥ 21.6 V

– VBmin = minimum supply voltage(at the power unit)

– l1 = current for electronics and inputs

– I2 = current for outputs/valves

– A = cable cross section (uniform e. g. 1.5 mm2)

– � = conductance value of cables

(uniform e. g. �Cu = 56m

Example:I1 = 1 AI2 = 5 AVBmin = 24 VVVALVE TERMINALmin = 21.6 V

�Cu = 56m

Result of example:

L≤ 18 m for A = 1.5 mm2

L≤ 30 m for A = 2.5 mm2
