  • Easily connect to PC using built-in RS232 port on E10-npn+ or via an Opto232 adapter on E10-Relay+.
B. Or connect up to 255 of them to a host
    PC or Master PLC as smart remote I/Os.

All E10+ PLCs are RS485 Network-Ready! Simple ASCII based Host Link Command s are really  simple to use. See Visual BASIC example here. The M-series PLC even has built-in NETCMD$() command to readily communicate with  E10+ PLCs.

C. Programmable using Windows-based
    Ladder Logic language editor software.

D. Optional DIN-Rail Mounting Kit for
    easy installation

  • Programmable in Ladder Logic software With SIMULATOR.
  • Creates ladder program using meaningful names:-
    - Uses simulator to fully test programs on the PC screen before downloading
    - On-line monitoring of all I/O logic states on ladder diagram or on full screen
    - Forced-setting/resetting of i/os can be done directly from computer screen.
    - EEPROM Program Storage (40 years)
    - Screw Terminal Blocks
  • Supports HostLink Command Protocol - The E10+ PLC can be used as a low cost I/O board for PC or other host processor board - Download Host Link Command Reference Manual
 
 

E10-Relay+

  • 24V AC or DC power supply (0.3A transformer)
  • 6 Inputs with LED Indicators (24V DC, PNP type)
  • 4 relay Outputs (2 commons. Each output can switch   2A @ 250V AC)
  • Requires Opto232 adapter for programming by a PC.
  • All the rest are same as E10-npn+.
 
Introduction
 
 

Finally, a Ladder-Logic based PLC so small and cost so little that it can effectively replace all those bulky relays, timers or counters found in your current control panels. Its 24V DC transistor outputs or 0 to 250V AC relay outputs eliminate the need for additional driver circuitry and its incredibly low price means you actually save money while getting a technically superior design for your next control panel project!

With their built-in RS485 interface, the new E10+ PLCs are ideal for distributed control where the I/Os are distributed to far away locations. The RS485 standard interface allows a twisted pair wire to connect PLCs at up to 1200 m (4000 ft) away!

Up to 255 E10+ PLCs may be connected to a master PLC such as the T100MD+ or to a host PC using the Auto485 .  Each E10+ PLC can work standalone for fast local control and at the same time, their I/O status can  be remotely controlled and monitored by  the master PLC or by a PC.  Its simple ASCII based Host Link Command s are really  easy to use. You can see a Visual BASIC example here.

 
 
Programming Methods & Software Features
 
 

An E10+ PLC is programmable using an extremely user-friendly ladder logic editor-cum-simulator software -WinTRiLOGI Version 3.5 ( Click here to download its Help document ). This software now runs under Windows operating systems (95,98,ME, NT,2000,XP).  The same PC can be used to program either a single E10+ via RS232 interface, or up to 255 E10+ PLCs  via RS485 network.

WinTRiLOGI runs on any Windows PC. Featuring pull-down menus, pop-up windows and on-line context-sensitive help systems, TRiLOGI is the most user-friendly ladder logic editor available. Its built-in logic SIMULATOR allows you to perform complete off-line testing of your program on your PC screen without connecting to the target PLC. You can immediately verify our claim by downloading the evaluation copy of the TRiLOGI from our Internet Website: "AH-Automations/Tri-Logi"   and finish writing the ladder program for your next project in no time!

( Notes : for existing E10npn or E10-Relay users: The new E10npn+ and E10Relay+ PLCs are backward compatible with the older generation E10 PLCs. This mean that you can continue to use the DOS TRiLOGI software that you have been using for many years to program the E10+ without switching to the Windows version. You will get the full 216 programming steps but your timers and counters are limited to 0-254. Only the WinTRiLOGI software supports 0-9999 range for E10+ timers and counters.)
