Overview

Control Solutions’ Model VP4-2310 ValuPoint® Programmable I/O for Modbus RTU has 23 I/O points, and operates as a master or slave for I/O expansion, or as a controller with soft PLC capability. The ValuPoint® platform features 14 universal context sensitive inputs. When configured as an analog input, the continuously self-calibrating sigma-delta converter produces 15-bit resolution with high noise immunity. When configured as a discrete input, the converter switches to 10-bit resolution at 1,000 samples per second for fast response. ValuPoint VP4-2310 also includes 3 analog outputs, 6 Form A relay outputs, and pulse counting capability on all inputs.

The ValuPoint® series of controllers is designed to be a building block in a distributed control system. The VP4-2310 can be used as Modbus slave for system expansion, or as Modbus master for stand-alone applications. When configured as Master, the VP4-2310 can query other Modbus devices, and use local registers to mirror mapped registers in remote devices.

Description

Control Solutions’ Model VP4-2310 ValuPoint® Programmable I/O for Modbus RTU is a network I/O device that includes programmable control. The 4th generation ValuPoint® platform is designed to be a building block in a distributed control system where controllers communicate via Modbus RTU.

The ValuPoint® Model VP4-2310 features 14 universal context sensitive inputs. When configured as an analog input, the continuously self-calibrating sigma-delta converter produces 15-bit resolution with high noise immunity. When configured as a discrete input, the converter switches to 10-bit resolution at 1,000 samples per second for fast response.

Analog Input objects provide data from the analog I/O points. Linearization tables are provided for 10K and 20K type II, III, and IV thermistors. Input type and scaling is configured by writing to Modbus registers. Modbus registers also provide access to the outputs.

Pulse input at up to 1kHz is available on 2 channels in all modes. If analog inputs are sampled in fast 10-bit mode, pulse input to 10Hz is available on all channels. Pulse counts are totalizing, and saved to non-volatile memory every 15 minutes.

ValuPoint Model VP4-2310 also includes 3 analog 4-20mA outputs, and 6 Form A relay outputs. All I/O points are accessed as Modbus holding registers, or coils in the case of relays.

ValuPoint® support software, available for download at no cost, includes the VP4-2310 configuration tool, i.CanDrawIt graphical programming tool, and the pliWrite line programming tool. Both programming tools support both simulated execution and live debug. The tools connect via Modbus RTU.
