  • Font d'alimentació: Connect a stable 24V DC power source to the designated power terminals (typically labeled DC24V and GND).
  • Digital Inputs (DI): Connect your input devices (sensors, switches) to the 'X' terminals (X00-X11).
  • Digital Outputs (DO): Connect your output devices (relays, indicators) to the 'Y' terminals (Y00-Y11). Note that outputs are a mix of transistor and relay types.
  • Analog Inputs (AD): Connect analog sensors (0-10V or 0-20mA) to the AD terminals (AD0-AD3).
  • Analog Outputs (DA): Connect analog actuators (0-10V or 0-20mA) to the DA terminals.
  • Ports de comunicació:
    • RS485 (COM1/COM2): Use the two RS485 ports for serial communication with other devices.
    • LAN (Ethernet): Connect an Ethernet cable for network communication and programming.
    • USB1/HOST: For program download and configuration updates via USB drive.
    • USB (Programming Port): A dedicated USB port for connecting to a PC for programming.

The unit features plug-in terminals for easy and efficient wire replacement, reducing maintenance time.

4. Funcionament

4.1 Encès

Once all connections are secure, apply 24V DC power. The HMI screen should illuminate, and the system will boot up. Observe the 'RUN', 'COM', and 'PWR' indicators on the unit for status.

4.2 HMI Interface

The 4.3-inch touch screen provides the Human Machine Interface. Navigate through screens, input data, and monitor processes as designed in your HMI project.

4.3 PLC Programming

The integrated PLC is programmed using Coolmay's dedicated software. Programs can be downloaded to the unit via:

  • USB: Connect your PC to the USB programming port.
  • Ethernet: Connect your PC to the LAN port.
  • Unitat USB: For configuration updates, load the update file onto a USB drive and insert it into the USB1/HOST port.

The PLC supports high-speed pulse outputs (up to 100 kHz) and high-speed inputs (up to 100 kHz), enabling precise control for demanding applications.

5. Manteniment

5.1 Condicions ambientals

To ensure optimal performance and longevity, operate the EX3S-8043H-24MRT within the specified environmental conditions:

  • Temperatura: -20°C to 60°C (avoid freezing conditions).
  • Humitat: 20% a 90% HR (sense condensació).

Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, excessive dust, corrosive gases, and strong electromagnetic interference.

5.2 Neteja

Clean the HMI screen and exterior casing with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the surface.

5.3 Terminal Replacement

The unit features plug-in terminals for easy wiring and replacement. If a terminal needs to be replaced or rewired, ensure power is off, then carefully remove the plug-in terminal block, make the necessary changes, and reinsert it. This design significantly reduces maintenance time.
