Reduce conversion eort by using the same I/O addressingWhen reusing existing modules with a Q Series CPU, it is not required to change the I/O number of the existing modules. For new module(s) on the main base unit, assign a number after the existing modules in the I/O assignment settings. This can greatly reduce the program modication time.

Step 2Step 1

Gradual transition from large type A Series to Q Series (Q mode).Construct a system that is controlled by the new Q Series CPU (Q mode) while keeping the existing large type A Series modules mounted to a QA6B extension base unit. The A Series modules can gradually be replaced to fully establish a Q Series system.

It is recommended to use QA6B extension base units to gradually upgrade from A Series system to Q Series system while using the assets of large type A series system. (The QA6B extension base units are compatible with High Performance Model QCPUs only. Basic Model QCPUs, Process CPUs, Redundant CPUs, Safety CPUs,Universal Model QCPUs, and Remote I/O Stations are not compatible.)Please refer to the "QA65B/QA68B Extension Base Unit User's Manual (IB(NA)-0800158)" for details of modules that can be mounted on the QA6B extension base units.

The small type AnS/Q2AS Series modules can also be used by connecting as a QCPU extension base.These extension base units can be used with QA65B and QA68B.

QA65BQA68B

Use existing A/QnA extension base units when upgrading to QCPU.

Mount a QA conversion adapter module to use existing A Series extension base units with a Q Series CPU.

The QA6ADP adapter cannot be connected to a QA1S extension base unit, which is used to mount small type AnS/Q2AS Series modules.The QA6ADP adapter is compatible with High Performance Model QCPUs only. Basic Model QCPUs, Process CPUs, Redundant CPUs, Safety CPUs, Universal Model QCPUs, and Remote I/O Stations are not compatible.

Modules which can be mounted on the extension base unit (A6B) are the same as when QA6B is used.An adapter module mounting bracket is required to mount the QA6ADP adapter. Follow the instructions in the user's manual when mounting.When an AC input module is mounted on the "A5B" extension base unit (without power supply) using the QA6ADP, either the "A6B with QA6ADP" or "QA6B" extension base unit (with power supply) is required in the system.

Modules for Easy Replacement

1817

High-speed counter modules(-, -)

A variety of modules are available to facilitate replacement.

These high-speed counter modules are used to replace the large type A Series high-speed countermodules (AD61 and AD61-S1) and have the same input ltering system and counting speed.Modules can be replaced without being restrained by the specications of existing pulse generators (e.g. an encoder).

DC input modules compatible with 6 mA rated input current (QX41-S2, QX81-S2)DC input modules compatible with 6 mA rated input current are available.When replacing large type A Series modules and utilizing the external devices as they are, the existing Q Series modules may not receive signals sent from external devices, such as proximity sensors, due to incompatibility with low-rated input current, and thus, external resistors need to be installed. With the QX41-S2 and QX81-S2 modules, which are compatible with 6 mA rated input current, external resistors are no longer required. (The existing external devices can be utilized when replacing modules.)

I/O combined module (QX41Y41P) * A module with sequential I/O numbersQX41Y41P's I/O assignment is same as that of large type A Series I/O combined module, AH42. This module can be used as the I/O module on the programmable controller side when using the A0J2 renewal tool (manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric System & Service Co., Ltd., refer to page 23) to replace the A0J2(H)CPUIt is not necessary to change the programs when replacing AH42 or A0J2(H)CPU. (Minimize the need to modify programs)

High-speed counter modules(-, -)

A variety of modules are available to facilitate replacement.

These high-speed counter modules are used to replace the large type A Series high-speed countermodules (AD61 and AD61-S1) and have the same input ltering system and counting speed.Modules can be replaced without being restrained by the specications of existing pulse generators (e.g. an encoder).

DC input modules compatible with 6 mA rated input current (QX41-S2, QX81-S2)DC input modules compatible with 6 mA rated input current are available.When replacing large type A Series modules and utilizing the external devices as they are, the existing Q Series modules may not receive signals sent from external devices, such as proximity sensors, due to incompatibility with low-rated input current, and thus, external resistors need to be installed. With the QX41-S2 and QX81-S2 modules, which are compatible with 6 mA rated input current, external resistors are no longer required. (The existing external devices can be utilized when replacing modules.)

I/O combined module (QX41Y41P) * A module with sequential I/O numbersQX41Y41P's I/O assignment is same as that of large type A Series I/O combined module, AH42. This module can be used as the I/O module on the programmable controller side when using the A0J2 renewal tool (manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric System & Service Co., Ltd., refer to page 23) to replace the A0J2(H)CPUIt is not necessary to change the programs when replacing AH42 or A0J2(H)CPU.

Further network upgrade options are available because of the continued production of MELSECNET/10 modules. A complete MELSECNET() system can be replaced with MELSECNET/10 while reusing the existing cable installations. Following the network replacement, the A series stations can be replaced with Q series stations as needed in a step-by-step manner. However, the step-by-step transition is not possible if the network includes of a combination of A/QnA series and Q series stations, because the A/QnA series does not support MELSECNET/H twisted bus system.

A0J2 renewal tool features

Replace A0J2(H) systems with Q Series using existing wiring.

The A0J2 renewal tool is used to replace the A0J2(H) systems with Q Series systems. It consists of an interface module to which the existing wired terminal block can be mounted, and a base adapter that can be installed using the existing installation holes.A variety of installation methods is available to t the installation space.

Interface module featuresThe interface module has DC to relay output conversion and AC to DC input conversion functions. Hence, replacement is possible together with Q Series connector type DC I/O modules. Dedicated cables are used to connect the interface module to Q Series I/O modules.

For detailed specications, precautions, and restrictions of the A0J2 renewal tool, please refer to the brochure (X900904-165) and user's manual. For further information, For details of the A0J2 renewal tool, please contact your local Mitsubishi sales oce or representative.

1. When upgrading to the Q Series module, programs do not need to be modied if the I/O combined module "QX41Y41P (32-point input for the rst half and 32-point output for the second half)" is used. (Refer to page 17)

2. The A0J2 renewal tool can be used to replace MELSECNET/MINI compact type I/O modules (AJ35PTF- (such as 28AR and 56DR)) with CC-Link modules.

MELSECNET/MINI-S3 I/O Module Wiring Conversion Adapter

Replace NET/MINI-S3 systems with CC-Link whilereusing existing NET/MINI-S3 wiring.

Wiring adapter terminal blocks eliminate the need to rewire.The simple replacement process helps minimize the upgrade time.The installation size is the same as that of A2C I/O modules; existing terminal block can be mounteddirectly. (Example) Replacing AJ35TB2-16D with AJ65BTB2-16D using a 34-pin conversion adapter

After replacingthe module,mount the wiredterminal block.*1

Remove the wiredterminal block fromthe existing I/Omodule.

After replacement

Replace with the CC-Link I/O module (AJ65BTB2-16D)

Remove the terminal block of theCC-Link I/O module, and then installthe conversion adapter.

Rewire the CC-Link cablesand power cables only.

No modication is necessary for I/O wiring since the existing terminal block of the MELSECNET/MINI-S3 I/O module can be used.
