GFDI-RM02N 4-channel counter module (24VDC, 0138 terminal block)
Product Description

GFDI, digital input module series is specially designed for industrial applications. Its the open-type industrial equipment which is intended for installation within enclosures supplied in the field. A digital input detects if a voltage is above/below a specific threshold. If the voltage is higher than the value, the controller will detect the digital input as high/1. Or if lower than the value, the controller will detect the digital input as low/0. And its circuit design & all the components of GFDI series are compliant with the latest requirements and standards of UL, CE & RoHS. It has a complete circuit protection design to resist overload, overvoltage and short circuit etc. It is avoided to damage & failure caused from improper operations.

Module Installation/Disassembly

Installation

I. Align the red arrow on the side of the module to the arrow on the DIN rail.
II. Press the module down and the metal clamp will slide (thanks to its spring mechanism) and grab on the other side of the DIN rail. Continue to push down until the metal clamp “clicks”.

*Note: Make sure the red arrows on the module and the rail are pointing the same direction

Removal

I. Use a screwdriver to pull the metal hook sideways and detach the module from the DIN rail.
II. Remove all modules from the DIN rail in reverse order of installation.

Series Introduction

series utilizes the standard Modbus communication protocol and supports Modbus RTU/ASCII and Modbus TCP. Please choose products and factory controllers to figure your system based on your communication protocol.

Components

I. DINKLE Bus
Rail 1 to 4 are defined for power supply and rail 5 and 7 are defined for communication.

DINKLE Bus Rail Definitions:

Rail Definition Rail Definition
8 4 0V
7 RS485B 3 5V

5 RS485A 1 24V

II. Gateway Module

A gateway module converts between Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU/ASCII. The module provides two sets of external Ethernet ports to connect to the controller and the Internet

There are two types of gateway modules available:

4-channel gateway module: Provides 4 RS485 ports to connect to a control module

Counter Module Control Register Description

Counter Module Register Communication Method

I. Use Modbus RTU/ASCII to read single-chip digital input module registers
The addresses for the counter module registers to be read are: 0X1000 (CH0 highorder word), 0x1001 (CH0 low-order word), 0x1002 (CH1 high-order word), 0x1003 (CH1 low-order word), 0x1004 (CH2 high-order word), 0x1005 (CH2 loworder word), 0x1006 (CH3 high-order word) and 0x1007 (CH3 low-order word).

※With no control module, RS485’s physical wire must be connected with an adapter plug and an adapter socket to send the signal to the Dinkle Bus

The configuration that uses Modbus RTU/ASCII to read single-chip digital input module registers is listed below:

Name/Product No. Description
GFDI-RM02N 4-channel counter module (24VDC)
BS-210 Adapter socket
BS-211 Adapter plug

II. Use Modbus RTU/ASCII with control modules to read analog input registers
Once a counter module is set up with a control module, it will automatically assign counter modules’ input records registers at 0x1000 (CH0 high-order word), 0x1001 (CH0 low-order word), 0x1002 (CH1 high-order word), 0x1003 (CH1 low-order word), 0x1004 (CH2 high-order word), 0x1005 (CH2 low-order word), 0x1006 (CH3 high-order word) and 0x1007 (CH3 low-order word). If there are multiple registers, they will be assigned addresses based on the module station number.

※When using control modules, RS485 can connect to control modules with 0170- 0101.

The configuration that uses Modbus RTU/ASCII to read analog input module registers is listed below:

Name/Product No. Description
GFMS-RM01S Master Modbus RTU, 1 Port
GFDI-RM02N 4-channel counter module (24VDC)
0170-0101 RS485(2W)-to-RS485(RJ45 interface)
Modbus function code 0x03 Demonstration

I. Use Modbus RTU/ASCII to read single-chip counter module registers

Modbus function code| Transmission example (ID:0x01)| Respond example (ID:0x01)
---|---|---
0x03| 01 03 10 00 00 02| 01 03 04 00 00 00 00

※In this example, we are reading “0x1000 and 0x1001 channel 1” with the I/O module ID of “01”

※When not using control modules for communications, the addresses for the registers will be:0x1000 (CH0 high-order word), 0x1001 (CH0 low-order word), 0x1002 (CH1 high-order word), 0x1003 (CH1 low-order word), 0x1004 (CH2 high- order word),  0x1005 (CH2 low-order word), 0x1006 (CH3 high-order word) and 0x1007 (CH3 low-order word).

II. Use Modbus RTU/ASCII with control modules to read analog input registers

Modbus function code| Transmission example (ID:0x01)| Respond example (ID:0x01)
---|---|---
0x03| 01 03 10 00 00 02| 01 03 04 00 00 00 00

※In this example, we are reading “0x1000 and 0x1001 channel 1” with the control module ID of “01”
※When using control modules for communications, the addresses for the registers will start at: 0x1000 (CH0 high-order word), 0x1001 (CH0 low-order word), 0x1002 (CH1 high-order word), 0x1003 (CH1 low-order word), 0x1004 (CH2 high-order word), 0x1005 (CH2 low-order word), 0x1006 (CH3 high-order word) and 0x1007 (CH3 low-order word).

Supports Modbus Function Code

Modbus function code| Transmission example (ID :0x01)| Respond example (ID :0x01)
---|---|---
0x03| 01 03 10 00 00 01| 01 03 02 00 00
