General Introduction
At a Glance
The discrete input/output modules of the Modicon M340 range are standard format modules
(occupying one single position), fitted with either:
z one 20-pin terminal block or
z one or two 40-pin connectors
For modules fitted with 40-pin connector outputs, a series of products known as TELEFAST 2
(see page 217) is available that enables discrete input/output modules to be quickly connected to
operational parts.
A wide range of discrete inputs and outputs make it possible to meet the following requirements:
z functional: direct or alternating inputs/outputs, with positive or negative logic
z modularity: 8, 16, 32, or 64 channels per module
Inputs
Inputs receive signals from the sensors and carry out the following functions:
z acquisition
z adaptation
z galvanic insulation
z filtering
z protection against interference
Outputs
Outputs store the orders given by the processor, in order to control pre-actuators via decoupling
and amplification circuits.

Temperature Derating
At a Glance
The characteristics are specified for a load rate of 60% of the channels.
CAUTION
OVERHEATING HAZARD
Take into account the temperature derating of the discrete I/O modules at the installation to
prevent the device from overheating and/or deteriorating.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.
If the rate is greater than 60%, the following downgrade curve must be taken into consideration.
NOTE: There is no temperature derating for relay modules. Users must therefore check that the
overall consumption of the 24 VDC power supply is sufficient.
NOTE: For static outputs, temperature derating is carried out on the basis of the maximum current
produced by the active outputs.
26 35012474 04/2015
General Introduction
Examples
z BMX DDO 1602
Suppose the BMX DDO 1602 module with sixteen 24 VDC/0.5 A outputs produces 0.5 A per
channel. For an ambient temperature reading of between 0° C and 40° C, the maximum
admissible current in the module is equal to 16 x 0.5 = 8 A. Above 40° C, the downgrading curve
must be applied. At 60° C, the maximum current in 24 VDC must not exceed 8 x 60% = 4.8 A.
This value corresponds to 10 outputs at 0.5 A or 16 outputs at 0.3 A or other combinations.
35012474 04/2015 27
General Introduction
M340H
The Modicon M340H (hardened) equipment is a ruggedized version of M340 equipment. It can be
used at extended temperatures (-25...70ºC) (-13...158ºF) and in harsh chemical environments.
This treatment increases the isolation capability of the circuit boards and their resistance to:
z condensation
z dusty atmospheres (conducting foreign particles)
z chemical corrosion, in particular during use in sulphurous atmospheres (oil, refinery, purification
plant and so on) or atmospheres containing halogens (chlorine and so on)
The M340H equipment, when within the standard temperature range (0...60ºC) (32...140ºF), has
the same performance characteristics as the standard M340 equipment.
At the temperature extremes (-25... 0ºC and 60... 70ºC) (-13...32ºF and 140...158ºF) the hardened
versions can have reduced power ratings that impact power calculations for Unity Pro applications.
If this equipment is operated outside the -25...70ºC (-13...158ºF) temperature range, the
equipment can operate abnormally.
CAUTION
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Do not operate M340H equipment outside of its specified temperature range.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.
Hardened equipment has a conformal coating applied to its electronic boards. This protection,
when associated with appropriate installation and maintenance, allows it to be more robust when
operating in harsh chemical environments.

Wiring Precautions
At a Glance
Discrete inputs/outputs feature protective measures which ensure a high resistance to industrial
environmental conditions. Nevertheless, the rules described below must be followed.
DANGER
IMPROPER GROUNDING HAZARD
Install the 24V supply according to applicable codes. The 0V terminals of the 24V power supplies
must be connected to metallic ground and safety ground as close as possible to the supply. This
is to ensure personnel safety in the event of a power phase coming into contact with the 24V
supply.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
NOTE: If an input/ouput module is present on the PLC, connect the sensor and pre-actuator power
supply to the power supply of the module otherwise, an external power supply error occurs causing
the input/output LED to flash.
Inputs
Recommendations for use concerning the inputs of discrete modules are as follows:
z for 24 VDC inputs and line coupling with an alternating current network:
WARNING
UNEXPECTED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
z Avoid excessive coupling between AC cables and cables relaying signals intended for
direct current inputs.
z Follow the cable routing rules.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.
35012474 04/2015 39
General Rules for Installation
When the input contact is open, the alternating currents may induce a current in the input which
might cause it to be set to 1.

At a Glance
Some general protective measures are integrated into the channels of discrete input/ouput direct
current modules.
DC Outputs
Every static output (except where specifically labeled "Non-Protected"), features a protective
device which allows the following to be detected when an output is active:
z An overload or short circuit. Events such as these cause the output to be deactivated
(tripped) and the event to be indicated on the display on the front panel of the module (the LED
corresponding to the channel flashes, the I/O LED comes on).
z Reversal of polarity. An event such as this causes the power supply to short circuit without
damaging the module. In order to obtain optimal protection, a quick-blow fuse must be installed
on the power supply and upstream from the pre-actuators.
z Inductive overvoltage. Each output is individually protected against inductive overvoltage and
has a fast electro-magnet demagnetization circuit using a zener diode which allows the
mechanical cycle of certain fast machines to be reduced.
DC Inputs
24 VDC and 48 VDC inputs are of constant current type. The input current is constant for a voltage
greater than:
z 15 V for 24 VDC inputs
z 25 V for the 48 VDC inputs
This characteristic has the following advantages:
z guaranteed minimum current in active state in accordance with IEC standards
z limited consumed current when input voltage increases, to avoid the module overheating
unnecessarily
z reduced consumed current to the power supply sensor supplied by the PLC power supply or a
process power supply

Discrete Modules: Diagnostic Processing
At a Glance
The discrete I/O modules are equipped with a display block featuring LEDs that displays the
module’s channels status the overall module status.
Illustration
The figure below shows the position of the channel status display LEDs as well as the 3 (or 4)
module status LEDs, on the front panel of the discrete I/O modules.
Description
The following table explains how the LEDs located on the discrete I/O display block operate.
35012474 04/2015 63
Discrete Modules: Diagnostic Processing
NOTE: The +32 LED is only present on the 64-channel modules. It is enabled/disabled with a push-
button located on the top of the module. By default, the first 32 channels are displayed.
NOTE: For a mixed input/output module, the first line of channel status LEDs represents the inputs
(for example, for a mixed 16 input/16 output module, LEDs 0 to 15 represent the inputs and LEDs
16 to 31 represent the outputs).
NOTE: After the sensor power outage, the I/O (red) LED of the following modules switch on and
the last recorded position of the sensor is displayed by the input channel status LED’s.
The following list gives the 24 VDC modules:
z BMX DDI 1602
z BMX DDI 3202
z BMX DDI 6402
z BMX DDM 16022
z BMX DDM 3202
z BMX DDM 16025
WARNING
CHANNEL LED INFORMATION NOT MATCHING SENSORS POSITION
After a sensor power outage:
z The I/O error LED is on
z Do not take into account the input LEDs information (they show the last recorded position of
the sensors, not their real positions)
z Check the real positions on the sensors.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.
Display Panels
When a voltage is present on an input or output, the corresponding LED is lit.
Display of internal or external events is only effective once the module has been configured. After
powering-up or a cold start, all the LEDs flash twice (for 2 seconds) to show that the module is
operational. When an event is detected, the channel status is recorded until the cause of the event
is cleared.
64 35012474 04/2015
Discrete Modules: Diagnostic Processing
There are several display blocks depending on the type of discrete I/O module.
(1) The BMX DAI 0814, BMX DRA 0804T, BMX DRA 0805 and BMX DAI 0805 are 8-channel
modules (channel 0 to 7).
(2) The BMX DDM 16022 and BMX DDM 16025 mixed input/output modules have 2 groups of 8
channels. The input group is represented by channels 0 to 7 and the output group is
represented by channels 16 to 23.

Discrete Modules: Diagnostic Processing
Diagnostics
At a Glance
The diagnostics function detects any conditions that may affect module operation. Three
diagnostic groups can be identified:
z internal events
z external events
z other events
Internal Events
Internal events concern all internal module conditions and all communication loss occurrences that
prevent a discrete input/output module from operating correctly.
A communication loss can be caused by:
z a hardware detected fault at rack bus level
z a processor malfunction or power cable circuit open or short
z a power cable circuit open or short
External Events
External events include:
z Overload and Short-Circuit: Static output modules contain a device for checking the load
status. In the event of an overload or short-circuit of one or more outputs, they are tripped to
open circuit. The status will be shown on the front panel of the module - the LEDs corresponding
to the tripped outputs will flash and the red I/O LED will light up.
z Sensor Voltage Error: All input modules contain a device for checking sensor voltage for all
module channels. This device checks that sensor and module power supply voltages are of a
sufficiently high level for correct operation of the module’s input channels. When sensor voltage
is less than or equal to the defined threshold, the status is shown by the I/O LED lighting up on
front panel of the module.
z Pre-actuator Voltage Error: All 24 VDC and 48 VDC transistor output modules contain a
device for checking the pre-actuator voltage of all module channels. This device checks that
pre-actuator and module power supply voltages are of a sufficiently high level for correct
operation of the module’s output channels. This voltage must be greater than 18 V (24 VDC
supply) or 36 V (48 VDC supply) for modules with direct current static outputs. In the event of
pre-actuator voltage being less than or equal to this threshold, the error is shown by the I/O LED
lighting up on the front panel of the module.
66 35012474 04/2015
Discrete Modules: Diagnostic Processing
NOTE: The sensor/pre-actuator voltage check is unique to terminal block modules. In 32 or 64-
channel connector modules, there is one checking device per connector (equivalent to one per
group of 16 channels).
A sensor or pre-actuator voltage error leads to all the inputs and outputs of the group affected by
the error (i.e. groups of 8 or 16 channels for a terminal block module and the group of 16 channels
for a 32 or 64-channel connector module) to be set to inactive.
NOTE: Relay output modules do not contain pre-actuator voltage checking devices.
Other Events
The other errors category includes loss of power to the modules.
Description
The following table can be used to determine the module’s status on the basis of the LEDs located
on the discrete input/output modules’ display panel.

68 35012474 04/2015
Discrete Modules: Diagnostic Processing
At a Glance
In order to check the discrete I/O connection, ensure that:
z sensor data is registered by the corresponding inputs and by the processor
z control orders from the processor are registered by the outputs and transmitted to the
corresponding pre-actuators
WARNING
UNEXPECTED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Active outputs can activate machine movements.
All power must be turned off before this check is carried out:
1. remove power fuses from the motor controls
2. turn off the power of hydraulic and pneumatic units
3. power up the PLC fitted with its Discrete I/O modules
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.
Description
After this, it is possible to check the connection of the Discrete I/O modules:
z without a terminal: activate each sensor and check whether the corresponding input LED
changes. If it remains unchanged, check the wiring and correct operation of the sensor.
z with a terminal (more in-depth check on the connection of the inputs/outputs). An application
with configured I/Os in the PLC is required, even if it is empty (in that case, do not declare any
module in the ‘FAST task’).
z This check can be carried out with the PLC in RUN mode, from a PC equipped with Unity Pro
software giving access to debug functions.
z This check can also be carried out with an entire application loaded in the memory. In this
case, stop the processing of the program by de-activating the MAST, FAST and event
(see Premium and Atrium using Unity Pro, Discrete I/O modules, User manual)tasks by
setting system bits %S30, %S31, and %S38 to 0.

Discrete Input/Output Modules Software Implementation
Chapter 26
General Introduction to the Application-Specific Discrete Function
Overview
Introduction
The software installation of the application-specific modules is carried out from various Unity Pro
editors in both online and offline modes.
If you do not have a processor to connect to, Unity Pro allows you to carry out an initial test using
the simulator. In this case there are differences in the installation (see page 268).
The following order of installation phases is recommended but it is possible to change the order of
certain phases (for example, starting with the configuration phase).
Note: The simulator is only used for the discrete or analog modules.
Chapter 27

Configuration
Section 27.1
Configuration of a Discrete Module: General Points
At a Glance
The configuration screen is a graphic tool designed for configuring (see Unity Pro, Operating
Modes) a module selected in a rack. It displays the parameters defined for this module’s channels,
and enables their modification in offline mode and on-line mode (function available for Unity Pro
versions greater than 3.0).
It also provides access to the debug screen (in on-line mode only).
NOTE: It is not possible to configure a module by programming using direct language objects
%KW (see page 298); these words are accessible in read only format.
NOTE: With Unity Pro 6.1 or later and Modicon M340 firmware 2.4 or later, you can access the
modules either via topological or State RAM addresses.
Please refer to Memory Tab (see Unity Pro, Operating Modes) and Topological/State RAM
Addressing of Modicon M340 Discrete Modules (see page 319).

Debugging
Debugging
Introduction
For each discrete input/output module, the Debug function enables:
z display of the parameters of each of its channels (channel state, filtering value, etc.)
z access to the diagnostics and adjustment functions for the selected channel (channel forcing,
channel masking, etc.)
The function also gives access to module diagnostics in the event of a detected error.
NOTE: This function is only available in on-line mode.
Debugging Screen
At a Glance
The debugging screen (see Unity Pro, Operating Modes) shows, in real time, the value and state
of each channel of the selected module. It also allows access to the channel commands (forcing
of the input or output value, reactivation of outputs, etc.).
Illustration
The figure below shows a sample debugging screen.
Description
The following table shows the various parts of the debugging screen and their functions.
z to select a channel
z to display the Symbol, name of the channel defined by the user (using the variable
editor)
4 General Specifies the parameters of the channel:
parameters z Function: specifies the function configured. This heading is frozen. The Global
area unforcing button provides direct access to the global unforcing of channels function.
z Task: specifies the MAST or FAST task configured. This heading is frozen.
5 Parameters This field displays the state of inputs and outputs and the various current parameters.
in progress For each channel, four items of information are available:
field z Symbol displays the symbol associated with the channel when it has been defined by
the user (using the variable editor)
z Value displays the state of each channel of the module
z Error provides direct access to channel by channel diagnostics when these are
inoperable (indicated by the LED built into the diagnostics access, which turns red)
At a Glance
This function allows you to modify the state of all or part of the channels of a module.
NOTE: The state of a forced output is frozen and can only be modified by the application after
unforcing. However, in the event of a detected error leading to output fallback, the state of these
outputs -assumes the value defined when configuring the Fallback mode (see Premium and
Atrium using Unity Pro, Discrete I/O modules, User manual) parameter.
The various commands available are:
z for one or more channels:
z force to 1
z force to 0
z unforcing (when the channel or channels selected are forced)
z for all the channels on the module (when at least one channel is forced):
z global unforcing of channels
Procedure
The following table shows the procedure for forcing or unforcing all or part of the channels of a
module.
At a Glance
These commands are used to change the state of a module’s outputs to 0 (RESET) or 1 (SET).
NOTE: The state of the output affected by one of these commands is temporary and can be
modified at any time by the application when the PLC is in RUN.
Procedure
The table below shows the procedure for assigning the value 0 or 1 to all or part of the channels
of a module.
At a Glance
When an event has caused a tripped output, this command is used to reactivate the output if no
