WinPLC Overview
The WinPLC (part number H2-WPLC1-xx) is an open-platform CPU running the Windows CE
operating system. It plugs into the CPU-slot of a DirectLOGIC DL205 base and talks across the
backplane to standard digital and analog input and output modules.
The Windows CE operating system is a familiar favorite for embedded systems in a wide variety of
applications. Using Windows CE in the WinPLC makes it a flexible control platform with the ability
to run PC-based Control software from a number of sources, as well as Visual Basic and Visual C
programs.
The operating system is resident in the module and does not require battery back-up. The user program is
backed by a five-year lithium battery.
The WinPLCs operating characteristics will largely be determined by the PC-based Control software
running in it. The PC-based Control software provider chooses how to use the available features in their
implementation of the product.

The diagram shows the terminal connections located on the power supply of the DL205 bases. The base
terminals can accept up to 16 AWG. You may be able to use larger wiring depending on the type of wire
used, but 16 AWG is the recommended size.

NOTE: You can connect either a 120 VAC or 240 VAC supply to the AC terminals. Special wiring or jumpers are
not required as with some of the other DirectLOGIC products.
WARNING: Once the power wiring is connected, install the plastic protective cover. When the cover is removed
there is a risk of electrical shock if you accidentally touch the wiring or wiring terminals.

10BaseT Connections
H2-WPLC-xx
10BaseT
To connect an H2-WPLC1-xx (or PC) to a hub or repeater, use a patch cable (sometimes called a
straight-through cable). The cable used to connect a PC directly to a WinPLC or to connect two hubs is
called a crossover cable.
8-pin RJ45 Connector
(8P8C)
The diagram below illustrates the standard wire positions in the RJ45 connector.
We recommend all WinPLC 10BaseT cables to be Category 5, UTP cable.
NOTE: See page 1-7 for 10BaseT distance limitations.

1. Using the table on the previous page, fill in the information for the base power supply, the WinPLC1xx, I/O modules, and any other devices that will use system power including devices that use the 24
VDC output. Pay special attention to the current supplied by the base power supply. The 9-slot base has
a larger current capacity than the smaller bases.
2. Add the current columns starting with the row for the CPU slot and work your way down to the
Other category. Put the total in the row labeled Maximum power required.
3. Subtract the row labeled Maximum power required from the row labeled Available Base Power.
Place the difference in the row labeled Remaining Power Available.
4. If Maximum Power Required is greater than Available Base Power in either of the two columns, the
power budget will be exceeded. It will be unsafe to use this configuration, and you will need to
restructure your I/O.
