Ⅲ. Terminal Interface Definition (鍵)

X1: DI デジタル入力, PTC motor thermistor input

X2: MD operatorpanel interface (for MD21 / MD31)

X3: ModbusRTU RS485 communication, RCT leakagecurrent transformer, 3phase voltage acquisition inputs

X4: Contactorcontrol relay outputs (CCA/CCB/CCC), driving maincircuit contactor coils

⚠️Hardrule warning: Never connect highpower motor maincircuit current to voltagesampling terminals; PTC terminals shall not be connected to ordinary thermocouples; RS485 bus must adopt daisychain topology, スタートポロジは禁止されています; 120 Ω terminating resistors must be fitted at bus ends.

Supporting Software
MCUsetup (MNavigate): PCbased parameter configuration, fault reading, trend logging; connected via USBRS485 adapter; parameter file import/export supported; GSD file available for hostsystem configuration.
MD21 / MD31 operator panels: local parameter editing, reading running current/voltage and fault logs. Panels are ordered separately, not supplied with main unit.
Package Contents Distinction

✅ Standard package (main unit only)

M102M main unit, rail mounting clips, paper user manual

❌ Not included in standard scope — must be ordered separately

MD21 / MD31 operator panel

1.2 m panel connecting cable

RCT residualcurrent leakage transformer

External current transformers (for circuits >63あ)

RS485 communication cable, terminating resistors

保護 & Fault Types

Faults are classified into Alarm (warning without tripping) and Trip (contactor deenergized). Fault records are stored in device memory and accessible via panel or fieldbus.

過負荷 (thermalmodel motor heat accumulation protection)
Lockedrotor (stall during startup or running)
Shortcircuit (instant highcurrent fault)
位相損失, 3phase current unbalance
過電圧 / 不足電圧 / voltage loss (not available on M101)
PTC overtemperature (motor winding temperature)
Earthfault leakage (external RCT required)

Fault reset methods: local panel reset, DIterminal external reset, remote Modbus reset command.

Ⅶ. Selection Pitfalls & Inapplicable Conditions

M102M requires 3phase voltage sampling wiring to activate over/undervoltage protections; voltagerelated protections become fully disabled if only current is wired.
For circuits >63 あ, builtin CT cannot be used; external CT shall be adopted with correct secondary range (5A secondary → select 2.55A unit range; 1A secondary → select 0.51A unit range).
For cabinets with heavy vibration or corrosive atmosphere, shockabsorbing brackets are recommended. Unit is IP20 and must not be installed outdoors.
Communication network must use daisychain wiring; star topology forbidden; fit terminating resistors at both bus ends to avoid packet loss and communication errors.
Comparison vs M101M: M101 has no voltage measurement, PTC temperature sensing, 漏れ防止, reversing or softstarter interlock. M101 is acceptable for simple fans; パンプス, compressors and processcritical motors shall adopt M102M.

VIII. Crossbrand Alternative Reference

ABB M102‑M	Alternative Solution	備考
M102‑M (Modbus)	Siemens 3UF7 (SIMOCODE pro)	機能的に同等; hardware & ソフトウェアに互換性がない; full rewiring & re‑configuration required
	Schneider LTMR series	Motor‑management relay with Modbus RTU, full function coverage; terminals and firmware cannot be reused directly

M10x series is not formally discontinued, yet sparepart leadtime is extended. For drawercabinet retrofits, cabinet/drawer hardware can be retained; replace the unit and redownload motor parameters.

Typical Industrial Application Scenarios

MNS lowvoltage drawertype switchgear in cement, 鋼鉄, chemical and papermaking plants

Intelligent protection for process pumps, コンプレッサー, belt conveyors and fan motors

DCS / PLC collects fullscale motor operating and fault data via ModbusRTU to implement motormanagement system.

Version Notes

M102M is available in 24VDC, 110VAC and 240VAC powersupply variants. Digitalinput DI power follows mainunit supply voltage. When ordering, confirm powersupply voltage, current range and requirement for MD panel.

ABB M102M Complete Installation Instructions

M102M installation consists of mainunit mounting and MD21/MD31 doormount operatorpanel installation. Main unit IP20; installation inside enclosed switch cabinets only; outdoor direct exposure prohibited.

本体 (M102M Body)
Two mounting options

1）DIN35 (TS35×15) standard rail mounting [推奨, preferred for MNS drawer cabinets]

Unit has integrated spring clips at bottom for clipping onto 35 mm standard electrical rail. Horizontal mounting (terminals downward) is official preferred orientation.

インストール手順: hook upper edge onto rail, press down unit until clip clicks into locked position. 除去: depress bottom clip and lift unit upwards.

全体の寸法: W110 mm × H140 mm × D75 mm.

2）Screwfastened direct mounting (no rail available)

Predrilled mounting holes on housing for M4 screw fixing to cabinet backplate.

⚠️Constraints: 90° vertical upright mounting (terminals facing left/right) is permitted. Inverted mounting (terminals upward) is strictly forbidden: inversion degrades heat dissipation and impairs builtin CT measurement accuracy.

Cabinetmount clearance & heatdissipation requirements

Maintain minimum 10 mm clearance top, bottom and both sides. Do not mount adjacent to heatgenerating components such as contactors, thermal relays or softstarters.

Operating ambient temperature20℃ ~ +60℃. If cabinet internal temperature exceeds 60℃, enhanced ventilation is mandatory to prevent derating and spurious protection trips.

Condensation must be avoided. Dehumidifier is recommended for highhumidity cabinets.

Fit rail endstops at both ends of DIN rail to prevent unit sliding.

端子締め付けトルク

Recommended screw torque: 0.81.0 N・m. Insufficient torque causes overheating; excessive torque damages terminal base.

Max single conductor crosssection: 10 mm²; maximum two identicalgauge conductors per terminal.

✔ Permitted mounting orientations

✔ Horizontal (terminals down, 標準)

✔ 90° vertical upright (terminals left / 右)

❌ Strictly forbidden

❌ Inverted (terminals upward)

❌ Tilt ±15°

MD21 / MD31 Cabinetdoormount Operator Panels (オプション, 別途注文した)

Panels are fitted on switchcabinet / drawer door; connected to mainunit X2 port by dedicated TA201 RJ11 cable. Max cable length 2.5 m; cable extension or homemade substitute not allowed.

Panel Model	Door Cut‑out Dimension (W×H)	Panel Ingress Protection	説明
MD21 (Large LCD)	84 mm × 68 mm	IP54	Full‑feature LCD display, complete parameter setting & fault viewing
MD31 (コンパクト)	84 mm × 46 mm	IP54	Indicator‑only unit without LCD; supports reset & スタート/ストップ; cannot modify full parameter set

インストール手順:

Cut cabinet door according to cutout dimensions.
Insert panel from outer side of door into cutout aperture.
Fit rear mounting clamps and tighten locking tabs.
Plug one end of dedicated RJ11 TA201 cable into panel, the other into mainunit X2.

⚠️Hardrule warnings:

Ordinary telephonecable shall never replace original TAseries cable: it causes communication garbling or panel dropout.
Avoid parallel routing alongside highpower power cables.
Maximum cable length 2.5 m; extension prohibited.

Ⅲ. RS485 (ModbusRTU) Communication Wiring Rules

M102M Modbus interface is located at terminal block X3.

Wiring topology: strict daisychain series connection; 星 / tree topology prohibited.
Fit external 120 Ω terminating resistor at both physical ends of bus. M102M has no internal terminating resistor.
Use shielded twistedpair communication cable; shield grounded at cabinet masterend only, remote end floating.
Separate communication cables from power cables with minimum 20 cm spacing; do not route within same cable duct.
マックス 32 M102M units per bus segment; total bus length ≤1200 m. Higher baudrate reduces permissible cable distance.
Typical Deployment inside MNS Drawer Cabinets (Field mostcommon)
M102M main unit clipped onto internal DIN35 rail inside drawer.
MD21 / MD31 mounted on drawer front door.
Inside drawer: maincircuit power passes through builtin CT; X3 wired for 3phase voltage sampling; X4 relay outputs drive contactor coils; X1 connected to PTC motor thermistor and external DI interlock signals.
RS485 daisychain runs through all drawers via drawer secondary connectors.
Installation Troubleshooting Notes (Highfaultrisk points)
Do not mount M102M close to heatgenerating devices; overheating leads to random tripping and unstable communication.
Never invert unit: builtin CT measurement error may cause overloadprotection malfunction.
MD operatorpanel must use ABB original TAseries cable; homemade telephone cable results in data loss or black panel.
Modbus star topology forbidden; missing terminating resistors produce intermittent random communication dropouts.
Observe terminal torque 0.81.0 N·m; insufficient torque causes overheating and burnt terminals.
Mainunit IP20: must be housed inside closed cabinet; direct dust/moisture exposure is prohibited.

ABB M102M Fault & Trip QuickReference Table

注記: M102M has no numeric fault codes; MD21 panel displays textbased fault messages. Hexadecimal fault event codes can be read via Modbus communication. Fault types: アラーム (warning without trip) / 旅行 (contactor tripped). Fault logs persist in device memory and can be retrieved via panel or MCUsetup software. Always resolve rootcause before reset; avoid repeated forced resets.

Protection Trips (Mostfrequent field faults)

Panel Text	タイプ	障害の説明	Root‑cause Analysis	Field Remedial Action

Verify motor nameplate rated current; 2. Measure actual running current; 3. Inspect motor fan & 熱放散; 4. Reduce mechanical load; 5. Allow thermal‑model cool‑down prior to reset
Locked rotor	旅行	Locked‑rotor / ストール保護	機械的焼き付き; jammed load; excessive start‑time; incorrectly‑set stall parameters	1. Manually turn motor shaft to check for mechanical blockage; 2. Verify stall‑current & stall‑time settings; 3. Check contactor full closure
Short‑circuit	旅行	Instantaneous short‑circuit trip	Phase‑to‑phase short‑circuit in motor cable or winding; main‑circuit short‑circuit; improperly‑low short‑circuit threshold	1. Power‑off insulation resistance test for motor & ケーブル; 2. Inspect for damaged power wiring; 3. Confirm short‑circuit setting; avoid arbitrarily raising threshold
位相損失	旅行	Phase‑failure protection	Supply missing‑phase; burnt contactor main‑contact; broken cable conductor; ヒューズが切れた	1. Measure 3‑phase incoming voltage; 2. Inspect contactor contact wear; 3. Tighten loose terminals

PTC‑sensor	旅行	PTC winding over‑temperature protection	Motor PTC thermistor triggers overtemperature; PTC wire open / 短絡; faulty X1 wiring	1. Measure PTC resistance: approx.100‑150 Ω cold state, >3 kΩ over‑temperature; 2. Check X1 PTC wiring; 3. Verify real motor temperature; open‑circuit / short‑circuit of PTC also triggers this message
Earth‑fault	旅行	漏れ / ground‑fault (external RCT transformer mandatory)	Motor‑cable ground fault; motor‑winding insulation breakdown; RCT mis‑wiring or damaged RCT	1. Measure winding‑to‑earth insulation resistance; 2. Check RCT pass‑through direction; 3. Verify leakage‑protection threshold setting

Over‑voltage	Alarm/Trip	Over‑voltage trip	Grid over‑voltage; regenerative over‑voltage; faulty voltage‑sampling	Measure actual bus‑bar voltage; inspect X3 voltage‑sampling wiring
Underload	Alarm/Trip	Under‑load protection (no‑load / broken‑shaft detection)	Broken belt; decoupled coupling; pump dry‑run; total load loss	Verify under‑load percentage setting; inspect mechanical transmission chain
Long start	旅行	Extended start‑up protection	Motor acceleration time exceeds configured limit; heavy‑load start‑up with insufficient torque	1. Inspect mechanical load; 2. Increase permitted start‑up‑time parameter; critical for star‑delta or soft‑starter interlock applications

I/O, インターロック & External Trips

Panel Text	タイプ	障害の説明	Root‑cause Analysis	Field Remedial Action
DIx Trip	旅行	Digital‑input DI external trip	Assigned DI receives external fault signal (E‑stop, process interlock)	Identify relevant DI channel; inspect external interlock loop; confirm DI configuration (alarm or trip)
非常停止	旅行	Emergency‑stop trip	E‑stop DI input activated	Inspect E‑stop push‑button circuit and wiring
External trip	旅行	General external trip	Trip command issued by host PLC/DCS via fieldbus	Diagnose trip command origin from PLC / DCS
Phase sequence	アラーム	Wrong phase‑sequence warning	Incorrect 3‑phase supply phase‑rotation; reversing motor start inhibited	Swap two incoming‑phase conductors; function may be disabled if phase‑sequence supervision is unnecessary

Ⅲ. Communicationrelated Faults (M102M ModbusRTU specific)

Panel Text	現象	意味	Troubleshooting Checklist
Bus timeout	アラーム	Bus communication timeout warning	Host cannot receive M102‑M data	1. Daisy‑chain topology; star wiring forbidden; 2. Fit 120 Ω terminating resistors at both bus ends; 3. Verify address, baud‑rate 38400, Even parity; 4. Use shielded twisted‑pair cable; 5. Check RS485 A/B polarity reversal; 6. Max bus length ≤1200 m; max node count ≤32

Bus timeout is alarmonly without tripping. Motor keeps running; only host monitoring is lost.

Unit Selfdiagnosis Hardware Faults (Repair / unitreplacement required)

Panel Text	意味	是正措置
Self‑test error1/2/3	Internal self‑test failure, hardware anomaly	Power‑cycle unit for retest; repeated errors indicate hardware damage, ユニットを交換する
CT‑error	Built‑in current‑transformer fault or over‑range current	Check operating current against selected unit range; persistent fault means hardware damage, ユニットを交換する

Three Reset Methods
Local MD21 panel: press reset key on fault page
Hardware DI terminal: configure one DI channel as faultreset input, activate via external pushbutton shortcircuit
Modbus remote reset: host writes reset command to device command register

⚠Important rule: certain hardware faults (selftest error, CTerror) cannot be cleared by powercycling; unit replacement is mandatory.

Common Field Pitfall Reminders
After overload trip on M102M, thermalmodel is NOT cleared instantly. Cooling time is required; retrip may occur immediately even after manual reset.
PTC opencircuit or shortcircuit will also trigger `PTCsensor` alarm; fault does not always mean real motor overheating.
Earthfault `Earthfault` protection requires external RCT residualcurrent transformer; protection function is inactive without RCT.
Phasesequence supervision generates alarm only by default and does not trip; reversingstarter will be inhibited upon phasesequenceerror alarm.

5. RS485 AB polarity reversal is the mostcommon rootcause for Bustimeout; missing terminating resistors produce sporadic intermittent communication packet loss
