High speed processing
PLC systems will always require faster processing speed
because faster processing means shorter production time,
more precise control, and better quality in applications.
The performance of MSP (Mitsubishi Sequence Processor)
has been improved greatly over that of those in the AnA,
AnU and AnS series. QnASCPUs are almost 3 times faster
than AnUCPUs.
■
Large built-in memory and optional
IC card
Each QnASCPU module is equipped with a large built-in
memory in addition to approximately 30k word of internal
device memory. Additionally, 3 types of memory cards
(SRAM, SRAM+EEPROM and SRAM+Flash ROM) are avail-
able, increasing the memory to allow for the following
functions.
●
Sampling trace, program trace or status latch
●
For use when more than 16 error records are required
●
Storage of device comments in the CPU
●
For use when file register, local device are required in
the CPU
●

Program-boot from the IC card in the CPU
●
Store parameters in the IC card
■
Global and local devices
MELSEC-QnAS offers a new concept in internal device
memory. In support of the multiple programming features
of QnAS PLCs, each program module can be installed with
its own internal memory bank called a ‘local device.’ The
data of the local device does not influence the results of
other program modules, and conversely it is not affected
by other modules either. Local devices then can be used
freely within program modules. At the same time, global
devices with a common memory shared by all the program
modules are also available, and can be used for
interlocking of program modules.
■
Macro command
A ladder program block used frequently in a given program
can be registered as a macro command and then utilized
in any other program any number of times with different
input and output devices. Use of this feature eliminates
retyping of the same form of ladder block and helps
standardize programming.
Pre-registered macro command libraries are also available.
The macro library software SW
M
IVD-MSPQ/MSDQ consists
of the following macro commands:
●

The special function module library MSPQ comprises
ladder program blocks necessary for MELSEC special
function modules such as the RS232C interface module.
●
The standard ladder program library MSDQ comprises
ladder blocks generally required for machine controls
such as on-delay timers and emergency stop detection.
■
Multiple programs
Up until now, PLC programs were generally composed of
one long program which handled all tasks, but because of
PLC’s scanning operation and program size, programming
and debugging was not easy. Even utilization of a
previously made program for another control application
was not easy to implement.
The QnAS series can handle and execute multiple program
modules. At the program design stage, program modules
can be created process by process, function by function
(e.g. of a machine) or designer by designer for concurrent
design. There are many advantages to this approach.
●
Easier to understand because each program module can
be made for specific functions and program modules are
smaller than one long program.
●
Program merging is not necessary after parallel design of
program modules by multiple designers.
●
Easier to make standardized program modules which can
be used repeatedly for other similar projects.

●
Saves time for program up/down loading at debugging
stage because of smaller program size.

AnSCPU Features
■ Compatibility
Programs and programming software of AnSCPUs are fully
compatible with AnSHCPUs.
Power supply, base units, I/O and other special function
modules are all compatible with the new CPU modules.
■ CC-Link instructions
AnSHCPUs support additional CC-Link instructions. These
instructions will replace FROM/TO instructions used for
sending and receiving remote I/O data through CC-Link,
and give the added advantage of not needing to know the
■ High speed processing
Processing speed of AnSHCPUs is up to three or four times
faster than their predecessors. Processing speed of a contact

command (LD) is now 0.33µs for A1SJHCPU and A1SHCPU,
0.25µs for A2SHCPU or A2SHCPU-S1, and 0.09nS for
A2USH-S1CPU.
■ 8k/14k/30k step program and built-in
memory
Up to 30k step program can be created for A2SHCPU-S1,
and stored in the built-in RAM memory with battery back-
up. 2k step, 8k step and 30k step EEPROM memory cassette
options are also available as non-volatile program storage.
■ Control up to 2048 I/O points
The number of local I/O points can be controlled, varying
from A1SJHCPU’s 256 points to A2SHCPU-S1’s 1024 points
with up to three extension base units. However, total I/O
points including remote I/O through CC-Link or
MELSECNET systems is up to 2048 points for any type of
AnSHCPU.
■ Compact size
High functionality and sequence control performance are
integrated in a compact body. Size of an AnSH PLC with 8
I/O modules is 430mm (16.93 inch)×130mm (5.12 inch)×
110mm (4.33 inch).
■ SFC language
In addition to ladder and list language, AnSHCPUs can also
handle SFC Sequential Function Chart language.
For sequence control of machines, SFC language is very
powerful for standardization of program, easy design and
debugging.
■ A1SJHCPU integral CPU system
The A1SJHCPU is unique in that it incorporates a CPU,
power supply and base rack into a single, easy to order

package. The A1SJCPU is perfect for small, cost-sensitive
applications.
Although A1SJHCPU is the least expensive model of the AnS
Series, functions and performance of the model are the
same as those of A1SHCPU. In addition, all special function
modules for A1SHCPU such as analog, positioning, and
various network modules can be used for the A1SJHCPU
system.

Power Supply Modules and CPU Base Units
A1S61PN, A1S62PN, A1S63P
Power Supplies
The power supply modules are connected to the incoming
power supply and generate the DC 5V that is required by
the A1S programmable controllers. They are mounted on
the base units in the designated power supply module slot.
The DC 5V generated is then passed on to the power rail
on the base unit. The input power supply voltage to the
module is dependent on the model selected. Input supply
voltages available are AC 100-240V and DC 24V.
Two new modules, A1S61PN and A1S62PN, were designed
based on EN61010-1 and safety aspects of IEC1131-2 to
comply with European Directives.
A1S32B, A1S33B, A1S35B, A1S38B
CPU Base Units
The CPU base units contain one power supply, one CPU
module and a maximum of either 2, 3, 5, or 8 single slot
size special function and I/O modules. At both ends of the
base units there is an expansion port provided for
connection to an extension base. A maximum of three

extension bases can be connected.

Extension Base Units and Extension Cables
A1S52B-S1, A1S55B-S1, A1S58B-S1
A1S65B-S1, A1S68B-S1
There are two different types of extension base units. One
which allows for a power supply module, and the other
which does not. Selection of which type should be used is
dependent on the total 5VDC current consumption made
on the power supply in the CPU base unit. If the total
demand is lower than the output of the one power supply,
then an additional power supply is not required and the
more economical extension base can be used. On each end
of the base units there is a connector. This is used to
interface with the CPU base unit, via an extension cable.

A1SI61 High Speed Interrupt Module
The A1SI61 high speed interrupt module has been designed
for machine control applications which require rapid
response times. When an interruption signal is provided,
the A1SI61 temporarily stops the sequence program from
running and executes an interruption program according to
the interruption vector. The interrupt start condition may
be selected by the use of internal switches according to the
type of equipment connected, i.e. interrupt may be started
on the leading or trailing edge of an interrupt signal.

A1SP60 Pulse Catch Module
The A1SP60 is a 16 point DC 24V input module, which can
be used as a normal input module or as a pulse catch
module. The pulse catch function of this module allows
short input pulses with a minimum pulse width of 0.5 msec
to be used in the sequence program without losing any
pulse signals. When a pulse signal is input, the condition
is memorized and the module ensures that the sequence
program is executed using the memorized condition for at
least one scan. Inputs are set up in blocks of 4, and each
block can be set to a normal operating function or the pulse
catch function.
