1. Serial Transmission System Series EX510 BackgroundFeaturesTechnical detailsApplications

2. European Marketing Centre EX510 The electronic industry and in particular the users related to the semi-conductor industry were the original target for the EX510 system. Background In addition the EX510 series was also developed to expand sales of SMC’s other serial interface systems, in particular series EX500. When EX510 was first released it was only compatible with network protocols that are popular in Japan, such as CC-Link & DeviceNet. But to expand sales in overseas markets the network compatibility has been increased to include PROFIBUS-DP, which is especially popular in Europe.

6. European Marketing Centre EX510 Gateway Unit Features 1/5 Compatible with the following network protocols Maximum of 128 points 64 input points 64 output points A total of 4 input branches and 4 output branches per gateway unit A maximum of 16 points per branch 4 input branches 4 output branches Transmission delay between gateway and I/O units is 1 ms or less

7. European Marketing Centre EX510 The number of utilised points used per gateway can be configured to realise flexible I/O: This allows unused points to be used elsewhere, saving memory and reducing bandwidth requirements Total: 128 points Input side: 4 branches x 16 points Output side: 4 branches x 16 points Total: 32 points Input side: 2 branches x 8 points Output side: 2 branches x 8 points Multiple combinations of input & output configurations can be realised depending on the protocol Gateway Unit Features 2/5

8. European Marketing Centre EX510 It is only necessary to set the address for the gateway unit and not the individual I/O units Therefore to change protocols, only the gateway unit needs changing, not all the slave units It is only necessary to connect the power supply to the gateway unit This results in wire savings as there is no separate power supply cable for the input & output units Branch connector cables combine communication and power supply Communication lines Power supply lines Branch cable (4-wire flat ribbon cable) Gateway Unit Features 3/5

9. European Marketing Centre EX510 No special tools required for installing cables With the adoption of special connectors there is no need to strip the wire Only pliers are needed for clamping This results in time savings and labour savings for the installation Branch connectore-con connector Gateway Unit Features 4/5 The power supply & communication connectors for the gateway unit are included as standard

10. European Marketing Centre EX510 Cable lengths of up to 20 metres from the gateway unit are possible Gateway Unit Features 5/5 Gateway unit is suitable for mounting inside a cabinet DIN rail mount Compact design IP20 enclosure protection

12. European Marketing Centre EX510 Input Unit Features 2/3 Possible to connect a wide range of input devices All input connections are e-con type No special tools required, just pliers for clamping Pressure switch Flow switch Auto switch

13. European Marketing Centre EX510 Input Unit Features 3/3 Fuse protection against short circuiting Possible to mount either directly onto a DIN rail or on the bracket accessory Fuse

14. European Marketing Centre EX510 SI Unit Features 1/3 SI units with a maximum of 16 output points Two models with different output types NPN output PNP output Three mounting types Direct screw mountVertical DIN rail mount Horizontal DIN rail mount Available as a standalone unit for converting existing valve manifolds to serial interface, or…

15. European Marketing Centre EX510 SI Unit Features 2/3 The SI unit is also available pre-assembled with some of SMC’s most popular valve series: Series SY3000/5000/7000/9000 Series SYJ3000/5000/7000 Series VQZ1000/2000/3000 More series coming soon including plug-in type This saves the user from assembling the SI unit, valves and wiring to the manifold

25. European Marketing Centre EX510 Applications 2/3 Nearly every application and automatic machine where the control structure has a certain degree of complexity is a good opportunity to use field buses. With the new EX510, SMC’s product range in terms of serial interfaces is now broader and can cover more possible applications with more optimised solutions. For instance, EX510 is: more suitable for applications that don’t require IP65 enclosure protection more suitable for mounting in a cabinet due to its compact dimensions an entry level field bus system that can also be cheaper due its lower enclosure protection
