■ Unit Description
The CJ1W-TS561 is a 6-channel input unit for K-type and J-type
thermocouples. It can be installed in any CJ1-series PLC system.
It is classified as a basic I/O unit, occupying 48, 64 or 96 I/O points,
depending on the number of activated inputs.
Always verify that the maximum I/O capacity of the CJ1 CPU is
sufficient for the number of required I/O points.

Keep the thermocouple wiring as short as possible to avoid
electrical interference. Shielded wiring is recommended.
x
When extending input wiring, always use compensation wires
appropriate for the thermocouple type.
x
For activated but unused inputs, short-circuit the + and terminals, to prevent unstable readout on the other inputs.
x
Keep the input wiring away from power lines including AC power
supply lines and high-power lines. Do not run the I/O lines in the
same duct or conduit as power lines.
x
The input circuits are galvanically isolated from the PLC’s I/O bus,
but there is no galvanic isolation between individual inputs.
x
Always ground the
terminal on the Power Supply Unit of the
PLC. In case of shielded sensor wiring, connect the shields to the
same grounding point as the PLC.

■ DIP switches
■ Data representation
8 DIP switches are accessible after removing the
front terminal block. Switch settings are processed at
time of power ON, and should not be changed while
the unit is powered.
Default (ex-factory) setting is all switches ON,
i.e. all 6 inputs are active and set to K-type
thermocouple, with filtering at n x 100 Hz. Be sure
to adjust the settings to your requirements before
use.
SW 1, 2 and 3 : Input type selection
Any combination of input types (different numbers of K-type/J-type
sensors) can be set.

other sources of electrical interference.

Measured temperatures are indicated in °C. Each input value
occupies one word (16 bits) in the CIO area and is encoded as a
signed integer, with a resolution of 0.1 °C.

■ ‘Not Ready’ flag
During initialisation after power-on, and in case of internal failure, a
‘Not Ready’ flag will be set in the PLC memory area A050 to A069
(Basic I/O Unit information area, refer to CJ1 Operation Manual W393
for details).
The lower bit of each unit is the Not Ready flag; the error code
indicated in the remaining bits is relevant for repair purposes only.
While this flag is ON, the temperature sensor data indicated by the
unit in the CIO area is invalid.

Create the I/O table in the PLC after changing the switch settings, to
register the correct number of input words in the PLC CPU. The unit is
registered as 48-point, 64-point, or 96-point input unit, depending on the
number of 16-bit CIO words it occupies.

Input words are allocated in the PLC’s CIO area as Basic I/O Unit, i.e.
sequentially starting at the leftmost unit. See CJ1-series Operation
Manual W393 for details.

Measured values are updated in CIO memory in each I/O refresh cycle.
The following values are to be interpreted as error codes:
SW 6+7+8 : Input activation
To prevent broken wire indication for unused inputs, and to reduce the
number of input channels occupied in CIO memory, the number of
required inputs can be set by SW 6+7+8.

■ Unit cycle time
The internal processing time for all measurements by the unit is
determined by the number of active channels and the filter type.
Unit initialisation
Measure Cold Junction
+ Sensor error check
Measure Channel 1
Measure Channel 2
* In these cases, more CIO words will be occupied than required for the
active inputs. The remaining occupied CIO words will be filled with 0’s,
and cannot be used as work bits.
The cold junction compensation
measurement and one sensor error
check are executed each cycle.
The cold junction measurement
time depends on the input filter
setting, whereas the sensor error
check takes a fixed 40 ms.
Example:
If 4 inputs are active, and filtering is
set to n x 50 Hz (response time =
80 ms):
Each measurement cycle takes
(4+1) x 80 + 40 ms = 440 ms.
