The DL05 & DL06 Family of Products

The DL05 micro PLC family includes eight
different models. Each has eight inputs
and six outputs in the base unit. The DL05
has one option module slot, which can
be used to expand the I/O count, provide
additional communications capability or
add a real-time clock and battery back-up.

DL05

Communication ports

8 in/6 out

The larger DL06 micro PLC family has 20

inputs and 16 outputs in the base unit. The
DL06 has four option module slots which
can be used to add I/O or provide additional communications options.

Instruction sets
The DL05 CPU offers PID capability, highspeed counting, and most of the same
powerful instruction set as our popular
D2-250-1 CPU, including the IBox instructions available in DirectSOFT version 6.
All DL05 PLCs have two built-in RS-232
communications ports that can be used
for programming, operator interface,
networking, etc.
The DL06 CPU offers PID capability,
floating point number handling, and
an instruction set very similar to our
D2-260 CPU, including the IBox instructions available in DirectSOFT version
6. All DL06 PLCs have two built-in
communications ports that can be used
for programming, operator interface,
networking, etc. One of the DL06 ports is
a multi-function port capable of RS-232,
RS-422, or RS-485 communications.

Power options
The DL05 and DL06 families have AC and
DC power options. They are also offered
with a variety of I/O options. You can
explore the Quick Selection Guide on the
next page to choose the right PLC for your
application.

High-speed inputs and

outputs
Units with DC inputs have selectable
high-speed input features on three input
points (DL05) or four input points (DL06).
Units with DC outputs can use the first two
outputs as a single bi-directional pulse
output. An overview of the high-speed I/O
features appear later in this section.

Features at a Glance
The DL05 and DL06 micro PLCs are
complete self-contained systems. The CPU,
power supply, and I/O are all included
inside the same housing. Option modules
are available to expand the capability
of each PLC family for more demanding
applications. The standard features of these
PLCs are extraordinary and compare favorably with larger and more expensive PLCs.
The specification tables to the right are
meant for quick reference only. Detailed
specifications and wiring information for
each model of the DL05 and DL06 PLCs
can be found in those specific sections.

Program capacity
Most boolean ladder instructions require
a single word of program memory. Other
instructions, such as timers, counters, etc.,
require two or more words. Data is stored in
Vmemory in 16-bit registers.

Performance
The performance characteristics shown in the
tables represent the amount of time required
to read the inputs, solve the Relay Ladder
Logic program and update the outputs.

Instructions
A complete list of instructions is available
at the end of this section.

Communications
The DL05 and DL06 offer powerful
communication features normally found
only on more expensive PLCs.

Special features
The DC input and DC output PLCs offer
high-speed counting or pulse output.
Option module slots allow for discrete
I/O expansion, analog I/O, or additional
communication options.

Control Systems
Overview

DirectSOFT software
The DL05 and DL06 PLCs use the same
familiar DirectSOFT programming software that our larger PLCs use. A FREE
version of DirectSOFT gives you all the
great features of the full version, but with a
100-word PLC program download limitation. For programs larger than 100 words,
the full package is required. The FREE
PC-DS100 software may be sufficient to
program the DL05 and DL06. If you are
programming with a full package version
prior to v6.0, you will need v2.4 or later
for the DL05 PLCs and v4.0 or later for the
DL06. We always recommend the latest
version for the most robust features. See
the DirectLOGIC Overview section DL in
this catalog for a complete description
of DirectSOFT including features, part
numbers of programming packages and
upgrades.

Product Dimensions and Installation

It is important to understand the installation requirements for your DL05 or DL06
system. Your knowledge of these requirements will help ensure that your system
operates within its environmental and
electrical limits.

Note: T here is a minimum clearance requirement

of 2 (51mm) between the panel door
(or any devices mounted in the panel door)
and the nearest DL05 component.

Plan for safety

This catalog should never be used as a
replacement for the user manual. You can
purchase, download free, or view online
the user manuals for these products. The
D0-USER-M is the publication for the
DL05 PLCs, and the D0-06USER-M is
the publication for the DL06 PLCs. The
D0-OPTIONS-M is the user manual for
the option modules. These user manuals
contain important safety information that
must be followed. The system installation
should comply with all appropriate electrical codes and standards.
