1. System Configuration

DIN rail mounting:

The T1-16S is equipped with brackets for mounting on a standard 35 mm DIN rail. The T1-16S can be mounted on a DIN rail as well as screw mounting.

On-line program changes:

When the T1-16S’s memory mode is set to 4 k steps mode, on-line (in RUN mode) program changes are available. Furthermore, program writing into the built-in EEPROM is also available in RUN mode. These functions are useful in program debugging stage.

Real-time clock/calendar function: (Enhanced model only)

The T1-16S has the real-time-clock/calendar function (year, month, day, day of the week, hours, minutes, seconds) that can be used for performing scheduled operations, data gathering with time stamps, etc. To back-up the real-time clock/calendar data, use of the optional battery is recommended.

RS-485 multi-purpose communication port: (Enhanced model only)

The T1-16S has an RS-485 multi-purpose communication port. Using this port, one of the following communication modes can be selected.

Computer link mode: T-series computer link protocol can be used in this mode. Up to 32 T1-16Ss can be connected to a master computer. By using this mode, MMI/SCADA system can be easily configured.

Data link mode: Two PLCs (any combination of T1S, T2E or T2N) can be directly linked together. This direct link is inexpensive, easily configured and requires no special programming.

Free ASCII mode: User defined ASCII messages can be transmitted and received through this port. A terminal, printer, bar-code reader, or other serial ASCII device can be directly connected.

Inverter connection mode: This mode is specially provided to communicate with Toshiba Inverters (ASDs) VF-A7/G7/S9 series. By using this function, the T1-16S can control and monitor the connected Inverters.
