SERVICE
If service is required then pack the unit in its original packaging container or, if unavailable, any suitable
rigid container. If a substitute container is used, surround the unit with shock absorbing material; damage
in shipment is not covered by the warranty. Include a letter with the unit describing the difficulty and
Hardware Revision and Software Version. Send to the following address:
All returns will be tested to verify customer claims of noncompliance with the product warranty. Improper
return packaging, which makes verification impossible, will void the warranty. If noncompliance is verified

The RJ 45 COM Port has RS 232, RS 485 (two wire) and CMOS logic signals on its pins. This port can be
used to download the configuration in the unit from the PRIZM software as well as for communication with
any Modbus Master device. Same two wire RS 485 signals are provided on the terminal block for commu-
nication with Modbus Master Device.

2.4 Configuration:
FIOA 0402-U requires PRIZM 32 software to configure analog input and outputs.
For downloading configuration use RJ COM Port of the unit.
5. Select the destination folder where Setup will install the files.
7. Installation starts. A dialog box indicating the status of progress of installation will display.
A screen is displayed to inform you when installation is completed.
This procedure installs Prizm32 Software in Start Menu (in selected folder).
7. When you click Yes button, it will uninstall Prizm configuration from your computer.
If you want to install Prizm32 again you have to follow the steps explained in section 3.3.1.
2. Select model from model list. Press “Next”. This will give you a analog I/O configuration wizard as
shown below:
Enable Analog Input: Check this check box to enable the selection of Analog Input channel.
Channel no: Channel number depends on the selection of FIOA model. Here user can configure 4 input
channels as selected FIOA model has 4 inputs.
Channel Type: Here selected model supports Universal inputs, so channel types are Thermocouple, mV,
mA, RTD and Voltage.
Each input channel can be configured independently as any of the input channel type.
Channel no: Channel number depends on the selection of FIOA model. Here user can configure 2 output
channels as selected FIOA model has 2 outputs.
3. The Analog Input and Output channel configuration is shown in the following screen:
4. If Thermocouple is selected as Channel type, then Thermocouple types are as shown below.
5. To configure particular channel select Channel number, Channel type, channel subtype, normalization
factor (0 to 99) and click on Confirm button. The selected channel will be configured.
6. Normalization factor can be selected for each channel independently.
7. Follow the same procedure for configuring Analog Output channel.
8. Also define communication parameter settings. This is done by clicking the “Port Setting” button on the
wizard as shown below:
9. For communicating with master device; Baud rate and parity can select as shown below:
2. When user press “Download” icon from toolstation window; following screen will apprear:
Communication Port – This is used to define communication port for downloading. By default Com1 is
selected.
Click “Download” button to start download. By default; this task will complete application and firmware
downloading.
During download operation following error may be occur -
1. Unit is not responding.
This error indicates that no communication has been etablished with unit. Please check cable connection
before you start downloading again.
2. Selected model is not matching with unit connected on IBM port.
This is product mismatch error. Please check you have defined correct model in application configuration.
Follow the below given steps for downloading the application and firmware in the FIOA unit.
1. Remove communication cables from any master device.
2. Connect the IBM programming cable from PC to unit’s RJ45 COM Port.
(You may use RS 232 signals for communicating with PC.)
3. Power ON the FIOA unit.
4. Wait for 10 Seconds. The ERR led will glow. This means the unit is in Configuration Download mode.
5. Configure the input / output channel in the I/O configuration wizard of PRIZM software.
6. Press “Download” button in the Prizm32 software.
7. Prizm software will download the application and firmware in the unit.
8. After the firmware is downloaded connect the unit to Modbus master device.
#Note:
1. For downloading the configuration you must remove communication cables from any master device.
2. Once the unit is turned ‘ON’, ERR Led goes ‘ON’ only after 10 seconds.
3. Press Download only when ERR Led is ‘ON’.
4. If Download is pressed before turning ‘ON’ the ERR Led, you will have to restart the unit.
5. At power ‘ON’ if there is no PLC communication from the Master till 10 seconds, the unit will still enter
into the Configuration download mode, which is indicated by glowing ERR Led. But if any frame from
master arrives, unit will enter in to PLC communication mode switching ‘off’ the ERR Led.
6. ‘ERR’ LED turns OFF after 5 minutes of the power ON; even if there is no any download and no frame
from Modbus master
3.4 Upload:
An application can be uploaded from the FIOA unit. To upload an application first select the appropriate
communication port for your computer by choosing “Communicate | Communication Port” menu option.
Attach a computer to FIOA cable. From the “Communicate” menu, click on the “Upload...” selection.
OR
In the Upload dialog, check the “Application” button and press the “Upload” button to begin uploading
the application.
For uploading, hardware configuration is same as that for the downloading configuration of the unit.
