⚠️Note: No galvanic isolation between channels; isolation exists between bus side and I/O side.

Mandatory accessories: X20TB12 (12ขั้วต่อพิน), X20BM11 bus base. Terminals are NOT supplied with the module.

ข้อมูลจำเพาะทางเทคนิคที่สำคัญ

หมายเหตุการเดินสายไฟ

1. Each thermocouple channel uses 2 ขั้ว (TC+, ทีซี). Six channels occupy 12 หมุด, matching X20TB12 terminal block.
2. Do not reverse thermocouple polarity; always use matched thermocouple extension wires.
3. No galvanic isolation between channels. For multipoint measurement, control reference potential difference to avoid commonmode interference.
4. Coldjunction compensation uses onboard terminal temperature measurement; keep terminal block away from heatgenerating components.

2. Disconnect 24 V DC power for installation / removal / สายไฟ. Hotswap is supported, but perform wiring with power removed.
3. การป้องกันไฟฟ้าสถิต: Wear antistatic wrist strap. Do not touch goldplated backplane contacts directly by hand.
4. สภาพแวดล้อม

2 การติดตั้งเครื่องกล (DINrail TS35 EN60715)

2.1 Mandatory Clearance for Heat Dissipation

Minimum 10 mm clearance left and right of each module.

การติดตั้งในแนวนอน: ≥35 mm free ventilation space above and below module.

การติดตั้งในแนวตั้ง: CPU must be placed below all I/O modules.

Tilt angle must not exceed 120°.

2.2 Assembly Procedure

1. Clip X20BM11 bus base onto DINrail, press down to lock firmly.
2. Snap X20 sliceI/O modules sequentially onto base, keep modules tightly adjacent.
3. Insert X20AT6402 downwards into X20BM11 base until audible click; confirm both side latches fully engaged.
4. Fit X20TB12 (12pin spring terminal block) onto front face of module. Terminals can be detached for offline prewiring.

Removal Procedure

1. Remove power supply.
2. Press triangular release latch on top of module; lift module upward to separate from bus base.
3. Pull terminal block straight outward.

2.3 Mandatory Hardware BillofMaterials

3 การเดินสายไฟฟ้า

3.1 Bus Power Supply

X20BM11 receives 24 VDC to supply backplane bus and X20AT6402 module.

การใช้พลังงาน: Bus side 0.01 W; I/O side 0.91 W.

3.2 Thermocouple Field Wiring (X20TB12 terminals)

Six thermocouple channels, each channel uses TCx+, TCx differential pair; ทั้งหมด 12 หมุด.

Always use matched thermocouple extension wire; strictly observe polarity.

⚠️Critical: No interchannel isolation; bustoI/O isolation present. Keep commonmode voltage ≤±15 V to prevent measurement drift for multisensor systems.

Coldjunction compensation: Onboard terminal temperature measurement. Locate terminal block away from contactors, power supplies and other heatgenerating devices.

Cabling practice: Run thermocouple lowlevel mV signal cables separately from power cables; avoid parallel bundling. Shield cable singleend grounding: connect shield to cabinet ground; leave sensorside shield floating.

Spring terminal wiring: Conductor crosssection 0.081.5 mm². Press spring tab with flatblade screwdriver, insert wire, release to lock conductor.

Recommended practice: Tie thermocouple negative terminals to module reference ground to suppress rippleinduced measurement error.

3.3 Terminal Assignment

4 LED Status Indicators

Module frontpanel LED definition:

1. RUN Green: Steadyon = module healthy running; blinking = no valid configuration; off = no power / hardware fault.
2. ERR Red: On = module fault; blinking = channel wirebreak / sensor failure.

Wirebreak detection: Diagnostics enabled in software; ERR LED blinks on thermocouple opencircuit, PLC receives fault code.

5 Automation Studio Hardware Configuration

1. Insert hardware `X20AT6402` in hardware tree; verify firmware compatibility.
2. Perchannel parameters:

ประเภทเซนเซอร์: เจ / เค / เอ็น / ส / บี / ร

Filter time:1 ms ~ 66.7 ms; set to 66.7 ms for 50 Hz mains noise suppression.

Output mode: Engineering temperature ℃ / raw mV value.

Enable wirebreak diagnosis.

3. Download hardware configuration, restart X20 I/O bus.
4. การตรวจสอบ: Connect known thermocouple; crosscheck temperature readings against reference thermometer.

X20AT6402 Faultcode Reference & ST Variable Mapping Example

1 Channel Diagnostic Status (2 status bits per channel)

Each thermocouple channel returns: Temperature value + channel status bits

Global module fault flag: `0x8000` = general module failure

LED Diagnostic Table

2 ST StructuredText Variable Mapping (Automation Studio)

X20AT6402 has 6 ช่อง. Each channel delivers INT temperature value + channel status byte.

Two resolution modes available: 0.1 ℃ (INT), 0.01 ℃ (DINT).

3 Comprehensive Field Troubleshooting List

1. All channels read 32767

อาการ: All channels return `0x7FFF`, channelstatus =3 (opencircuit).

Checklist: X20TB12 fully seated; X20BM11 latches locked; 24 V supply voltage drop.

2. Singlechannel returns 32767, other channels normal

Possible rootcauses: Broken thermocouple / extension wire; loose terminal crimp; reversed thermocouple polarity.

3. Temperature reading jitter / drift

1) Filter time too short and mains interference present; set filter time to 66.7 ms for 50 Hz suppression.

2) Thermocouple extension wire runs parallel with power cables; separate cable routing; singleend shield grounding at cabinet.

3) Interchannel commonmode voltage >±15 V. No interchannel isolation; large referencepotential difference between multiple thermocouples.

4. ERR LED solid red, RUN LED blinking green

Firmware version mismatch; hardware configuration mismatches physical hardware. Distinguish X20AT6402 vs X20cAT6402, do not crosscompile configuration.

5. Fixed 273 ℃ reading

Typical opencircuit symptom when wirebreak diagnosis is enabled; inspect sensor wiring loop first.

4 Diagnostic Function Block Tip

Automation Studio standard library provides `X20DiagGetChannelState()` function block. It directly reads channel fault status without manual bitmask parsing.

Input hardwareID for X20AT6402: `161BA9`; function returns enumerated channelfault state.
