1. Introduction
- Operating mode: Modbus-RTU slave over RS485 (default) or RS232.
- Power input: 5–36 VDC with reverse-polarity protection.
- Operating temperature: -40 °C to +85 °C with DIN-rail or screw mounting.
- Channel summary: 4× opto-isolated DI, 4× SPDT relay DO (both models) plus 4× AI on Y301-444.
- DIP switch SW1–SW5 adds a binary offset to the configured Modbus slave address for quick staging.
2. System Overview
- DI support dry or wet contacts with configurable debounce and 32-bit pulse counting.
- DO are SPDT relays rated AC 277 V / 10 A or DC 28 V / 10 A. Each relay may retain its state through soft or power resets.
- AI (Y301-444) provide per-channel selection of 0–10 V, 0–5 V, or 4–20 mA input ranges. Voltage is reported in millivolts, current in microamps.
- LED indicators: POWER, WORK (heartbeat), DI1–DI4, DO1–DO4, AI sampling (Y301-444), TX/RX traffic.
- Reload push button restores factory defaults after a 3–15 s press (DIP offset preserved).
3. Hardware Interfaces
- Power: V+/V− screw terminals plus 5.5 × 2.1 mm DC jack.
- DI block: COM+, COM−, DI1…DI4. Dry mode bridges COM+ to DI via switch. Wet mode accepts external 5–36 V referenced to COM−.
- DO block: NOn/COMn/NCn (n = 1…4) for SPDT relays.
- AI block (Y301-444): AI− plus V+ (voltage positive) and I+ (current positive) per channel. Only one mode may be wired at a time.
- Communication: RS485 A/B/GND by default; RS232 exposes TX/RX/GND on the same terminal block.
- DIP switch: 5-bit address offset (ON = 1).
4. Electrical Specifications
- Supply: 5–36 VDC. Typical draw: 180 mA @12 V (Y301-440) / 220 mA @12 V (Y301-444). Maximum: 250 mA / 300 mA with relays energized.
- Digital Inputs: 4 channels, <5 mA per channel, 100 Hz sampling, 5–36 V wet threshold, 5–255 ms debounce (default 50 ms).
- Digital Outputs: 4 SPDT relays, AC 277 V 10 A / DC 28 V 10 A rating, <10 ms pickup, <5 ms release, 100 k electrical cycles.
- Analog Inputs (Y301-444): 4 channels, 0–10 V / 0–5 V / 4–20 mA selectable per channel, ±1% FS accuracy, 16-bit resolution, 10 Hz sampling per channel.
5. Modbus Communication Parameters
- Slave Addressing: Base address 1–255 stored in holding register 40063. DIP offset (0–31) is added at runtime.
- Baud Rate: 600–230400 bps (default 9600) via register 40088.
- Frame Format: Standard Modbus-RTU. All commands use CRC16 (Lo byte first).
- Supported Function Codes:
- 0x01 Read Coils → DO state (addresses 0x0000–0x0003).
- 0x02 Read Discrete Inputs → DI state (addresses 0x0000–0x0003).
- 0x03 Read Holding Registers → configuration, automation parameters, diagnostics.
- 0x04 Read Input Registers → AI voltage/current readings (Y301-444 only).
- 0x05 / 0x0F Write Single/Multiple Coils → DO control.
- 0x06 / 0x10 Write Single/Multiple Holding Registers → parameter updates, automation blocks.
- Automation Register Block: Starting at PLC 40129 (0x0080). Each rule consumes 16 bytes in Mode, Action, DO index, Trigger index, Param1, Param2 order.
- Pulse Counters: PLC 41281–41287 map to DI1–DI4 32-bit counters (write zero to clear).
- Special Register: 0x0800 write 0x5500 to soft reboot; write 0x0055 to restore defaults.
6. Configuration Workflow
- Connect via HYToolBox, Modbus Poll, or any RTU master.
- Discover units with broadcast address 0 if needed; assign unique base address in register 40063.
- Set baud rate, parity, and stop bits (registers 40088–40092) to match the host bus.
- Configure DI debounce (40067) and pulse edge mode (40066) to match signal noise levels.
- Enable DO retention mode (40065) if relays must maintain state after reset.
- Program automation rules by writing 16-byte blocks from register 0x0080 upward (two rules per DO, total eight rules).
- Store device name, heartbeat, and broadcast behavior using registers 40047, 40077, 40064 when supervisory systems require identification.
7. Automation & Linkage Rules
- Mode 0 – DI Follow: DO mirrors DI state. Action selects DO state when DI = 1.
- Mode 1 – DI Reverse Follow: DO is inverse of DI state.
- Mode 2 – Pulse Output: DO toggles to commanded state for Param1 milliseconds, then reverts.
- Mode 3 / 4 – Delay On / Delay Off: Adds Param1 delay before switching.
- Mode 5 – Cycle: Alternating ON/OFF durations (Param1 = ON ms, Param2 = OFF ms).
- Mode 6 / 7 – Timer Absolute / Interval: Trigger at Unix timestamp or periodic interval.
- Mode 8 – Schedule: Start time plus repeat interval; requires RTC register 40086.
- Mode 9 – Daily Schedule: Executes at seconds-from-midnight (Param1).
- Mode 10 – AI Threshold (Y301-444): DO reacts to AI voltage/current crossing Param1 (mV/µA) with Param2 hysteresis.
- Mode 11 – Button Mode: DO engages while DI pressed; optional hold via Param1.
- Mode 12 – Watchdog: Drives DO fail-safe if heartbeat or DI pulse not seen within Param1.
- Mode 13–15 – Logic: Bitmask-based AND/OR/XOR between DI/DO sources.
Rule capacity: 4 DO × 2 rules = 8 stored logic blocks evaluated in ascending register order.
8. Wiring Guidelines
- Power: Use 22–16 AWG conductors with a 2 A upstream fuse; keep leads short.
- DI Dry Contact: Loop COM+ through external switch back to DIx. For wet inputs, feed external 5–36 V to DIx with COM− return.
- DO Loads: Install RC snubbers (AC) or flyback diodes (DC) on inductive loads. Observe contact ratings.
- AI Wiring (Y301-444): Voltage mode uses V+ and AI−; current mode uses I+ and AI− with external loop supply. Never wire voltage and current terminals simultaneously on the same channel.
- RS485 Bus: Shielded twisted pair with 120 Ω termination at both ends, plus common reference ground. Limit to 32 nodes per segment.
9. Diagnostics & Maintenance
- LEDs: POWER steady indicates supply OK; WORK blinks when firmware runs; DI/DO LEDs mirror channel states; TX/RX blink with serial traffic.
- Reload: Hold button 3–15 s to restore defaults (base address resets to 1 while DIP offset remains).
- Routine Checks:
- Tighten terminal screws every 6 months.
- Inspect insulation near high-voltage loads.
- Monitor Modbus error counters; adjust debounce or cabling if retries increase.
