3 Safety Precautions
! WARNING Never attempt to disassemble any Units while power is being supplied. Doing so
may result in serious electrical shock or electrocution.
! WARNING Never touch any of the terminals while power is being supplied. Doing so may
result in serious electrical shock or electrocution.
xii
Application Precautions Section 5
! Caution The operating environment of the PC System can have a large effect on the lon-
gevity and reliability of the system. Improper operating environments can lead to
malfunction, failure, and other unforeseeable problems with the PC System. Be
sure that the operating environment is within the specified conditions at installa-
tion and remains within the specified conditions during the life of the system.
5 Application Precautions
Observe the following precautions when using the PC.
! WARNING Failure to abide by the following precautions could lead to serious or possibly
fatal injury. Always heed these precautions.
• Always ground the system to 100 Ω or less when installing the system to pro-
tect against electrical shock.
• Always turn off the power supply to the PC before attempting any of the follow-
ing. Performing any of the following with the power supply turned on may lead
to electrical shock:
• Mounting or removing any Units.
• Assembling any Unit.
• Connecting or disconnecting any cables or wiring.
! Caution Execute online edit only after confirming that no adverse effects will be caused
by extending the cycle time. Otherwise, the input signals may not be readable.
! Caution Tighten the screws on the terminal block of the AC Power Supply Unit to the
torque specified in the manuals. Loose screws may result in burning or malfunc-
tion.
! Caution Always clear memory before beginning to program the CPM1. Although
memory is cleared before the CPU Unit is shipped (except for bits with specific
functions), AR 1314, which turns ON when the internal capacitor cannot back up
memory, may have turned ON during shipment.
! Caution If the CPM1 will be turned off for periods exceeding the data backup period of the
internal capacitor, design the system so that it will not be influenced if data in the
DM, HR, and CNT areas is cleared when power is turned off.
! Caution Either switch the CPM1 to RUN or MONITOR mode, or turn off and on power to
the CPM1 after changing from a Programming Device any data that is backed up
in flash memory. This data includes the user program, read-only DM area (DM
6144 to DM 6599), and the PC Setup (DM 6600 to DM 6655).
xiii
Application Precautions Section 5
• The user program and memory area data in the CPM1 are backed up either by
an internal capacitor or in flash memory as shown in the following table.
Backup method Data
Internal capacitor Read/write DM area (DM 0000 to DM 0999, DM 1022, and
DM 1023)
Error log area (DM 1000 to DM 1021)
HR area (HR 00 to HR 19)
Counter area (CNT 000 to CNT 127)
Flash memory User program
Read-only DM area (DM 6144 to DM 6599)
PC Setup (DM 6600 to DM 6655)
Note 1. The IR, TR, LR, and timer areas are not normally backed up when power is
turned off and all contents will be cleared the next time power is turned on.
(The PC Setup setting in DM 6601 can be used to back up this data. Refer to
details on the PC Setup later in this manual for details.)
2. The bits in the AR and SR areas have special functions and are set accord-
ing to these functions when power is turned on.
• The capacitor backup time depends on the ambient temperature, as shown in
the following graph. The backup time, however, assumes that the capacitor is
fully charged, which requires that power be supplied to the CPU Unit continu-
ously for at least 15 minutes.
Backup time (days)
20
10
7

25 40 80
Ambient temperature (C)
If the power remains off for a period exceeding the data backup period,
AR 1314 will turn ON to indicate that the capacitor can no longer back up data
and the data backed up by the capacitor will be cleared. AR 1314 will remain
ON unless it is turned OFF using I/O monitor operations, using memory clear
operations, or from the user program.
If desired, the PC Setup setting in DM 6604 can be set to create a fatal error
and thus stop the system when AR 1314 goes ON.
• The data stored in flash memory will not be lost even if power remains off for a
period exceeding the data backup period, because the data stored in flash
memory will be read to the CPU Unit when the CPM1 is turned on.
• If the power is turned off without changing the mode from PROGRAM mode to
RUN or MONITOR mode after having made changes in the data that is backed
up in flash memory, the changes will not be written to flash memory. If the
power is then left off for more than 20 days (at 25C), the changes (i.e., the
contents of the RAM) will be erased and the data values will become unde-
fined.
xiv
Application Precautions Section 5
! Caution Failure to abide by the following precautions could lead to faulty operation or the
PC or the system or could damage the PC or PC Units. Always heed these pre-
cautions.
• Use the Units only with the power supplies and voltages specified in the opera-
tion manuals.
• Take appropriate measures to ensure that the specified power with the rated
voltage and frequency is supplied, particularly in places where the power sup-
ply is unstable.
• Provide circuit breakers and other safety measures to provide protection
against shorts in external wiring.
• Do not apply voltages to input sections in excess of the rated input voltage.
• Do not apply voltages or connect loads to output sections in excess of the max-
imum switching capacity.
• Always disconnect the LG terminal when performing withstand voltage tests.
• Always connect to a class-3 ground (to 100 Ω or less) when installing the Units.
• Always turn the power supply to the PC off before attempting any of the follow-
ing:
• Mounting or dismounting Expansion I/O Units, CPU Units, or any other
Units.
• Assembling the Units.
• Connecting or wiring the cables.
• Connecting or disconnecting the connectors.
• Do not attempt to take any Units apart, to repair any Units, or to modify any
Units in any way.
• Be sure that all the mounting screws, terminal screws, and cable connector
screws are tightened to the torque specified in this manual.
• For Units that have labels attached on the ventilation holes at the time of ship-
ment, be sure to leave them attached when wiring in order to prevent wiring
cuttings from entering the Unit.
• Remove the labels after the completion of wiring to ensure proper heat dissipa-
tion.
• Use crimp terminals or solid wires for wiring. Do not connect bare stranded
wires directly to terminals.
• Double-check all the wiring before turning on the power supply.
• Be sure to check polarity and directions when connecting terminal blocks or
connectors.
• Be sure that the terminal blocks, expansion cables, and other items with lock-
ing devices are properly locked into place.
• Check the user program for proper execution before actually running it on the
Unit.
• Be sure to confirm that no adverse effect will occur in the equipment before
changing the operation mode of the PC.
• Be sure to confirm that no adverse effect will occur in the equipment before
executing forced set/reset of the relay contact.
• Be sure to confirm that no adverse effect will occur in the equipment before
changing the set values or present values.
• Be sure to resume operation only after transferring to the replaced CPU Unit
the contents of the data memory or hold relay required for resuming operation.
• Never pull on, bend to extreme angles, or place heavy objects on cables.
• Install all Units according to instructions in the operation manuals.

SECTION 1
Introduction
This section describes the CPM1’s special features and functions and shows the possible system configurations.
1
CPM1 Features and Functions Section 1-1
Extra I/O Capacity Either one Expansion I/O Unit or one Analog I/O Unit can be connected to a
CPM1-10CDR-/20CDR-/30CDR- CPU Unit. Also, up to three Expansion
I/O Units and/or Analog I/O Units can be connected in any combination to a
CPM1-30CDR--V1 CPU Unit.
Analog I/O Unit The CPM1A-MAD01 Analog I/O Unit can be connected as part of a CPM1 PC to
provide two analog inputs and one analog output. (Up to three Analog I/O Units
can be connected at the same time.) Refer to Section 6 Analog I/O Unit for
details on the Analog I/O Unit.
Input Filter Function The CPM1 is equipped with a filter function to prevent incorrect operation
caused by chatter or noise in the input signal. The user can select an input time
constant of 1 ms, 2 ms, 4 ms, 8 ms, 16 ms, 32 ms, 64 ms, or 128 ms.
Low-maintenance Design Flash memory provides memory backup without a battery.
Conforms to EC Directives The CPM1 PCs conform to EC directives (EMC and low-voltage directives), so
they can be incorporated in equipment destined for the EC. Contact your
OMRON representative for more details.
Input Interrupts The CPM1-10CDR- PCs can handle 2 interrupt inputs; the CPM1-20CDR-
and CPM1-30CDR- PCs can handle 4 interrupt inputs. In addition to normal
input interrupts, the CPM1 has a counter mode that counts high-speed input sig-
nals and triggers interrupts at fixed count multiples.
Quick-response Inputs Quick-response inputs can detect input signals with a pulse width as short as
0.2 ms regardless of their timing during the PC cycle. Quick-response inputs
and interrupt inputs use the same input terminals.
2
CPM1 Features and Functions Section 1-1
Interval Timer CPM1 PCs have a high-speed interval timer which can be set from 0.5 ms to
319968 ms. The timer can be set to trigger a single interrupt (one-shot mode) or
repeat scheduled interrupts (scheduled interrupt mode).
High-speed Counter CPM1 PCs have a high-speed counter that can be used in incremental mode or
up/down mode. The high-speed counter can be combined with input interrupts
to perform target value control or zone comparison control that isn’t affected by
the PC’s cycle time.
Analog Setting Function The CPM1 PCs have 2 analog volume controls that can be used to make manual
analog settings.
Host Link Communications The CPM1 PCs are compatible with the Host Link, which allows communica-
tions with personal computers. The CPM1 using the Host Link can also commu-
nicate with Programmable Terminal using host link commands.
An RS-232C Adapter is used for 1-to-1 communications and an RS-422 Adapter
is used for 1-to-n communications.
1-to-1 Link A data link can be created with a data area in another CPM1, CQM1, or C200HS
PC. An RS-232C Adapter is used to make the 1-to-1 connection.
NT Link Communications High-speed operations can be achieved by providing a direct access by con-
necting the CPM1 to the Programmable Terminal through the NT Link Interface.
An RS-232 Adapter is used for this connection.
Standard Peripheral Devices The CPM1 uses the same Programming Consoles, SYSMAC Support Software
(SSS), and Ladder Support Software (LSS) as the Mini H-type and CQM1 PCs.
Programming is Possible Programming operation is possible through the PT screen by using an OMRON
Using the PT PT that has a built-in Programming Console function.

The following table shows which IR words are allocated to the analog controls on
the CPM1’s CPU Unit.
Control Corresponding IR word Setting range (BCD)
Analog volume control 0 IR 250 0000 to 0200
Analog volume control 1 IR 251
Input Filter Function The input time constant for the CPM1’s external inputs can be set to 1, 2, 4, 8, 16,
32, 64, or 128 ms. Increasing the input time constant can reduce the effects of
chatter or noise in the input signal.
With the CPM1, actual response time for each set input time constant for word
000 is different from that for word 001 or later.
Set value Word 000 Word 001 or later
1 ms 1 to 1.5 ms 0.1 to 0.3 ms
2 ms 2 to 2.5 ms 0.7 to 1.5 ms
4 ms 4 to 4.5 ms 1.5 to 2.5 ms
8 ms 8 to 8.5 ms 3 to 4.5 ms
16 ms 16 to 16.5 ms 6 to 9 ms
32 ms 32 to 32.5 ms 12 to 18 ms
64 ms 64 to 64.5 ms 24 to 35 ms
128 ms 128 to 128.5 ms 50 to 70 ms
The input response time of the CPM1 is obtained with the following:
2 ms max. (hardware performance) + input time constant (see above table)
+ cycle time

CPM1 Features and Functions Section 1-1
Input Interrupts The CPM1-10CDR- PCs have 2 interrupt input terminals and the
CPM1-20CDR- and CPM1-30CDR- PCs have 4 interrupt input terminals.
There are two modes for input interrupts: input interrupt mode and counter
mode.
1, 2, 3... 1. When an interrupt occurs in Input Interrupt Mode, the main program is inter-
rupted and the interrupt program is executed immediately, regardless of the
cycle time.
2. In Counter Mode, external input signals are counted at high speed (up to
1 kHz) and an interrupt is generated each time the count reaches the set
value. When an interrupt occurs, the main program is interrupted and the
interrupt program is executed. The set value can be set from 0 to 65,535.
The following diagram shows the program execution when an interrupt occurs.
Main program
SBN00
MOV
END RET
Note When not using as interrupt input terminals, the input bits IR 00003 to IR 00006
can be used as normal input terminals.

CPM1 Features and Functions Section 1-1
Quick-response Inputs The CPM1-10CDR- PCs have 2 quick-response input terminals and the
CPM1-20CDR-/30CDR-(-V1) PCs have 4 quick-response input terminals.
(The same terminals are used for quick-response inputs and interrupt inputs.)
Quick-response inputs have an internal buffer, so input signals shorter than one
cycle can be detected.

Memory Backup The user program and memory area data in the CPM1 are backed up either by
an internal capacitor or in flash memory as shown in the following table.
Backup method Data
Internal capacitor Read/write DM area (DM 0000 to DM 0999, DM 1022, and
DM 1023)
Error log area (DM 1000 to DM 1021)
HR area (HR 00 to HR 19)
Counter area (CNT 000 to CNT 127)
Flash memory User program
Read-only DM area (DM 6144 to DM 6599)
PC Setup (DM 6600 to DM 6655)
Note 1. The IR, TR, LR, and timer areas are not normally backed up when power is
turned off and all contents will be cleared the next time power is turned on.
(The PC Setup setting in DM 6601 can be used to back up this data. Refer to
details on the PC Setup later in this manual for details.)
2. The bits in the AR and SR areas have special functions and are set accord-
ing to these functions when power is turned on.
The capacitor backup time depends on the ambient temperature, as shown in
the following graph. The backup time, however, assumes that the capacitor is
fully charged, which requires that power be supplied to the CPU Unit continu-
ously for at least 15 minutes.
Backup time (days)

Ambient temperature (C)
If the power remains off for a period exceeding the data backup period,
AR 1314 will turn ON to indicate that the capacitor can no longer back up data
and the data backed up by the capacitor will be cleared. AR 1314 will remain
ON unless it is turned OFF using I/O monitor operations, using memory clear
operations, or from the user program.
If desired, the PC Setup setting in DM 6604 can be set to create a fatal error
and thus stop the system when AR 1314 goes ON.
The data stored in flash memory will not be lost even if power remains off for a
period exceeding the data backup period, because the data stored in flash
memory will be read to the CPU Unit when the CPM1 is turned on.
If the power is turned off without changing the mode from PROGRAM mode to
RUN or MONITOR mode after having made changes in the data that is backed
up in flash memory, the changes will not be written to flash memory. If the power
is then left off for more than 20 days (at 25C), the changes (i.e., the contents of
the RAM) will be erased and the data values will become undefined.

Grounding Be sure to ground the functional earth and protective earth terminals together to
less than 100 Ω in order to protect against electric shock and incorrect operation
from electrical noise. Be sure to use a wire of at least 1.25 mm2 for grounding.
! Caution When installing the Units, always connect to a class-3 (to 100 Ω or less) ground.
Otherwise, an electric shock may occur.
Note Disconnect the functional earth terminal when performing withstand voltage
tests.
Crimp Connectors Always use crimp connectors for the CPM1’s power lines and I/O lines or else
use a single-wire line (instead of a stranded wire). Stray wire strands could acci-
dentally short out.
Use M3 terminal screws and tighten the screws securely (0.5 N m).

SECTION 4
Using Peripheral Devices
This section outlines the operations possible with the SYSMAC Support Software (SSS) and the Programming Consoles.
Actual SSS operating procedures are provided in the SSS Operation Manual: C-series PCs. Programming Console connec-
tion and operating procedures are provided in this section.
47
Support Software Capabilities Section 4-1
PC Model If the CPM1 PC doesn’t appear as an option in the SSS’s System Setup, set the
PC Model to “CQM1.” The CPM1 is compatible with the CQM1.
PC Interface Set the PC Interface to the Peripheral Device Port by selecting “PERIPHERAL”
from the submenu. After selecting the Peripheral Device Port, set the commu-
nications baud rate to 9,600 baud.
Programming Check Since the data area of the CQM1 is larger than that of the CPM1, some parts of
the area cannot be checked as the CPM1 PC. Pay careful attention to the usable
data area when programming.
Note If a program that contains addresses not supported by the CPM1 are transferred
to the CPM1, a memory error will occur when operation is begun and AR 1308
will turn ON. Refer to the Programming Manual (W228) for differences in
memory areas.
Memory Usage Since the memory of the the CQM1 is larger than that of the CPM1, the displayed
available memory capacity is larger than the actual available memory capacity.
Pay careful attention to the actual available memory capacity when program-
ming.
Expansion Instructions When a program is transferred after changing the assignment of function codes
for the 18 expansion instructions, a message to “Turn on the DIP switch of the
PC and execute again” is displayed. Change the assignment of the function
codes for the expansion instructions to the default settings before programming.
48
Support Software Capabilities Section 4-1
The default settings for the CQM1 are as shown in the following table.
Online Editing If unsupported addresses are set in the program for operands or set values,
error messages will be displayed and the values will not be accepted.

PROGRAM Mode The CPM1 program isn’t executed in PROGRAM mode. Use PROGRAM mode
to create and edit the program, clear memory, or check the program for errors.
MONITOR Mode The CPM1 program is executed in MONITOR mode and I/O is processed just as
it is in RUN mode. Use MONITOR mode when testing the system by monitoring
the CPM1’s operating status, force-setting and resetting I/O bits, changing the
SV/PV of timers and counters, etc.
RUN Mode This is the CPM1’s normal operating mode. The CPM1’s operating status can be
monitored from a Peripheral Device, but bits can’t be force-set/force-reset and
the SV/PV of timers and counters can’t be changed.
! Caution Be sure to confirm that no adverse effect will occur with the equipment before
changing the operating mode of the PC.

Before beginning to program for the first time or when installing a new program,
clear all areas.
All Clear The following procedure is used to clear memory completely.
1, 2, 3... 1. Bring up the initial display by pressing the CLR key repeatedly.
2. Press the SET, NOT, and then the RESET Key to begin the operation.

END HR CNT DM
! Caution The PC Setup (DM 6600 through DM 6655) will be cleared when this operation is
performed.
Partial Clear It is possible to retain the data in specified areas or part of the Program Memory.
To retain the data in the HR, TC, or DM Areas, press the appropriate key after
pressing SET, NOT, and RESET. Any data area that still appears on the display
will be cleared when the MONTR Key is pressed.
The HR Key is used to specify both the AR and HR Areas, the CNT Key is used to
specify the entire timer/counter area, and the DM Key is used to specify the DM
Area.
It is also possible to retain a portion of the Program Memory from the first
memory address to a specified address. After designating the data areas to
be retained, specify the first Program Memory address to be cleared. For
example, input 030 to leave addresses 000 to 029 untouched, but to clear
addresses from 030 to the end of Program Memory.
As an example, follow the procedure below to retain the timer/counter area and
Program Memory addresses 000 through 122:
1, 2, 3... 1. Press the CLR Key to bring up the initial display.
2. Press the SET, NOT, and then the RESET Key to begin the operation.

SECTION 5
Test Runs and Error Processing
This section describes procedures for test runs of CPM1 operation, self-diagnosis functions, and error processing to identify
and correct the hardware and software errors that can occur during PC operation.
85
Initial System Checks and Test Run Procedure Section 5-1
Note 1. Always clear memory before beginning to program the CPM1. Although
memory is cleared before the CPU Unit is shipped (except for bits with spe-
cific functions), AR 1314, which turns ON when the internal capacitor cannot
back up memory, may have turned ON during shipment.
2. If the CPM1 will be turned off for periods exceeding the data backup period
of the internal capacitor, design the system so that it will not be influenced if
data in the DM, HR, and CNT areas is cleared when power is turned off.
3. Either switch the CPM1 to RUN or MONITOR mode, or turn off and on power
to the CPM1 after changing from a Programming Device any data that is
backed up in flash memory. This data includes the user program, read-only
DM area (DM 6144 to DM 6599), and the PC Setup (DM 6600 to DM 6655).

Maintenance Inspections Section 5-7
Inspection Items The main system components of a SYSMAC system are semiconductors, and it
contains few components with limited lifetimes. Environmental conditions, how-
ever, can lead to electrical element deterioration, making regular maintenance
necessary.
The standard period for maintenance checks is 6 months to 1 year, but depend-
ing on the environment checks may need to be more regular.
If the criteria are not met, adjust to within the specified ranges.

clock pulse A pulse available at specific bits in memory for use in timing operations. Various
clock pulses are available with different pulse widths, and therefore different fre-
quencies.
clock pulse bit A bit in memory that supplies a pulse that can be used to time operations. Vari-
ous clock pulse bits are available with different pulse widths, and therefore differ-
ent frequencies.
common data Data that is stored in a memory of a PC and which is shared by other PCs in the
same the same system. Each PC has a specified section(s) of the area allocated
to it. Each PC writes to the section(s) allocated to it and reads the sections allo-
cated to the other PCs with which it shares the common data.
communications cable Cable used to transfer data between components of a control system and con-
forming to the RS-232C or RS-422 standards.
comparison instruction An instruction used to compare data at different locations in memory to deter-
mine the relationship between the data.

Glossary
Completion Flag A flag used with a timer or counter that turns ON when the timer has timed out or
the counter has reached its set value.
condition A symbol placed on an instruction line to indicate an instruction that controls the
execution condition for the terminal instruction. Each condition is assigned a bit
in memory that determines its status. The status of the bit assigned to each
condition determines the next execution condition. Conditions correspond to
LOAD, LOAD NOT, AND, AND NOT, OR, or OR NOT instructions.
CONFIG.SYS An MS DOS file containing environment settings for a personal computer.
constant An input for an operand in which the actual numeric value is specified. Constants
can be input for certain operands in place of memory area addresses. Some
operands must be input as constants.
control bit A bit in a memory area that is set either through the program or via a Program-
ming Device to achieve a specific purpose, e.g., a Restart Bit is turned ON and
OFF to restart a Unit.
control data An operand that specifies how an instruction is to be executed. The control data
may specify the part of a word is to be used as the operand, it may specify the
destination for a data transfer instructions, it may specify the size of a data table
used in an instruction, etc.
control signal A signal sent from the PC to effect the operation of the controlled system.
Control System All of the hardware and software components used to control other devices. A
Control System includes the PC System, the PC programs, and all I/O devices
that are used to control or obtain feedback from the controlled system.
controlled system The devices that are being controlled by a PC System.
count pulse The signal counted by a counter.
counter A dedicated group of digits or words in memory used to count the number of
times a specific process has occurred, or a location in memory accessed
through a TIM/CNT bit and used to count the number of times the status of a bit
or an execution condition has changed from OFF to ON.
CPU Unit See central processing unit.
CTS An acronym for clear-to-send, a signal used in communications between elec-
tronic devices to indicate that the receiver is ready to accept incoming data.
CY See Carry Flag.
cycle One unit of processing performed by the CPU Unit, including ladder program
execution, peripheral servicing, I/O refreshing, etc.
cycle time The time required to complete one cycle of CPU Unit processing.
cyclic interrupt See scheduled interrupt.
data area An area in the PC’s memory that is designed to hold a specific type of data.
data area boundary The highest address available within a data area. When designating an operand
that requires multiple words, it is necessary to ensure that the highest address in
the data area is not exceeded.
data disk A floppy disk used to same user programs, DM area contents, comments, and
other user data.
data length In communications, the number of bits that is to be treated as one unit in data
transmissions.

Glossary
data link An automatic data transmission operation that allows PCs or Units within PC to
pass data back and forth via common data areas.
data link area A common data area established through a data link.
data movement instruction An instruction used to move data from one location in memory to another. The
data in the original memory location is left unchanged.
data sharing The process in which common data areas or common data words are created
between two or more PCs.
data trace A process in which changes in the contents of specific memory locations are
recorded during program execution.
data transfer Moving data from one memory location to another, either within the same device
or between different devices connected via a communications line or network.
