⚠️ Notes for-EDU version

1. Designed for laboratory training. OMRON does not provide industrial-site warranty. Use standard commercial model CP1H-XA40DR-A for industrial projects.
2. Programmi, Programmatore CX / CX-One software, wiring and expansion modules are fully interchangeable between EDU and commercial units; user programs can be directly downloaded to either unit.
3. Compatibilità del software

Software di programmazione: Programmatore CX (within CX-One software suite)

Not compatible with Sysmac-Studio: CP1H belongs to traditional CP-series, not the NJ/NX platform.

4. Easily-confused Model Comparison
5. CP1H-XA40DT-A-EDU: Uscita a transistor. Superior high-speed pulse performance, direct-drive for servo drives.
6. CP1H-XA40DR-A-EDU: Uscita relè. Suitable for contactors and indicator lamps. Limited relay mechanical life; not for high-frequency pulse switching.
7. CP1H-Y20DT-D: DC power supply variant, no built-in analog I/O.
8. Opzioni di sostituzione

OMRON upgrade alternative: CP2E-N40DR-A (no on-board analog; add CP1W-MAD42 analog module separately)

Domestic compatible alternatives: Inovance H1U/H2U series, Xinje XD-series PLC.

6. Inspection Checklist for Used / Training-grade-EDU Hardware
7. Inspect relay outputs for contact burning or adhesion.
8. Mandatory testing of built-in analog input & produzione.
9. Verify USB programming port and RS232 peripheral port communication.

4.-EDU units are not eligible for OMRON industrial warranty claims; for laboratory-use only.

OMRON CP1H-XA40DR-A-EDU

Hardware 100% equivalent to CP1H-XA40DR-A.-EDU = Educational training variant. Differences are limited to warranty and sales channel. I/O mapping, analog functions, communication and programs are fully interoperable.

1. CIO I/O Memory Assignment (-EDU exactly the same)

I/O digitali

Nota: DR relay-output models do NOT support hardware high-speed pulse output. Pulse positioning function is only available for DT transistor-output variants.

On-board Analog I/O Address (XA-specific hardware)

Analog range options: 0-10V, 1-5V,-10-10V,4-20 mA. Power-cycle the PLC after parameter configuration for settings to take effect.

2. terminale & Linee guida per il cablaggio

2.1 Terminali di alimentazione

L1 / L2(N): CA 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz

GR: Terra protettiva, must be grounded

24V OUT: Auxiliary 24 VDC output from PLC (300 mA max) for sensor power; non sovraccaricare.

2.2 Ingresso digitale (Affondare / Sourcing selectable)

COM: Input common terminal. Sinking input: connect COM to 0 V; Sourcing input: connect COM to 24 V.

Terminali di ingresso: 00-23 for DC24V signals.

2.3 Uscita relè

Independent common-COM terminals for output groups. Massimo. 2 A per point for resistive loads. Free-wheeling diodes are recommended for inductive loads.

Avoid frequent ON/OFF switching; relay contacts have finite mechanical service life.

2.4 On-board Analog Wiring

4 × AI, 2 × AO. DIP-switch per AI channel: OFF = voltage input; ON = current input.

1. Ingresso tensione: Signal positive → VIN, signal negative → COM
2. Ingresso corrente (4-20 mA): Set DIP-switch ON, short-circuit VIN and IIN, feed signal to IIN, signal negative → COM
3. Uscita analogica (voltage-only): VOUT to load positive, COM to load negative. On-board AO supports voltage output only, no current output capability.

⚠️ Route analog cables separately, keep clear of power cables to minimize electromagnetic interference.

3. Side-by-side Comparison: CP1H-XA40DR-A vs CP1H-XA40DR-A-EDU

-Many-EDU units circulate in second-hand markets. Hardware may function properly, yet OMRON will reject warranty service requests.

4. HS-Code Reference (Customs Declaration)

Commodity: Controllore logico programmabile (PLC)

Codice SA: 84714100 (Complete-system programmable controller)

For reference only. Confirm HS classification with your customs broker before actual declaration.

5. Acceptance Test Procedure for Second-hand-EDU Training Units
6. Prova di accensione: Apply AC100-240V. POWER LED lights normally, no error alarms. Check backup-battery condition; low battery will cause program loss.
7. Digital Input test: Feed 24 VDC signal to every input point, monitor CIO0 & CIO1 bits via CX-Programmer to verify full response.
8. Relay Output test: Force-ON CIO100 / CIO101 bits point-by-point; measure contact continuity; check for burned or stuck contacts.
9. USB programming port: Verify program upload / download with CX-Programmer.
10. RS232 peripheral port: Validate serial communication.
11. Mandatory analog-I/O testing:

Voltage mode: Inject 0-10 V reference signal to each AI channel, monitor CH200-203 values.

AO test: Assign values to CH210 & CH211, measure output voltage at VOUT terminals.

Switch to current-input mode, validate 4-20 mA acquisition.

7. Expansion bus test: Mount one CP1W expansion unit and confirm bus communication.
8. Sourcing-Alternative Quick Reference
9. OMRON upgrade replacement: CP2E-N40DR-A, no native analog; add CP1W-MAD42 analog module.
10. Transistor-output variant for motion control: CP1H-XA40DT-A-EDU
11. Alternative domestiche: Inovance H2U-40DR, Xinje XD3-40R-E
