Power and Expansion Selection
This section provides tools to calculate the CJ1 system current consumption total needed to select
the power supply. When the number of modules or power requirements exceeds the capability of the
power supplies available, I/O expansion racks solve the problem. If the number of modules per rack
exceeds 10 or the current consumption is greater than the capacity of the power supply units, use the
CPU and expansion rack configuration.
What is the basic configuration?
A CJ1 system consists of a power supply, a CPU, and up to 10 basic I/O, special I/O and
CPU bus units, and an end cover. See page B-109.
What goes on expansion I/O racks?
The expansion I/O rack contains a power supply, an I/O interface module and the remaining
I/O modules. Each expansion rack requires a power supply, the I/O interface module and up
to 10 more modules.
Where are ratings to calculate overall current consumption?
All the current consumption ratings for the CPU, basic I/O, special I/O and CPU bus units
are collected in the tables on pages B-110 to B-111.
Which power supply is right?
Compare the current consumption total of basic I/O, special I/O, and CPU bus units to
determine which power supply to use.

Note: If more than 10 modules are required or the current consumption exceeds the output
capacity of the power supplies, go to page B-109 for configuration of I/O expansion racks.
The same power supply units can be used for both CPU and I/O expansion racks.
How many expansion I/O racks can be used?
Depending on the CPU chosen, the system can be expanded with up to three additional racks of
basic I/O, special I/O and CPU bus units.

Note: Order one CJ1W-IC101 I/O control module for the CPU rack and one CJ1W-II101 I/O
interface module for each I/O expansion rack. Connect the modules with a cable of
the appropriate length. Second and third I/O expansion racks connect between I/O
interface modules. See page B-117 for details.

Basic Configuration
A CJ1 Series basic configuration consists of a CPU, Power Supply Unit, Basic I/O Modules, Special I/O Modules, CPU
Bus Modules, and an End Cover. Add up the current consumption of all the modules and the CPU according to the
formula on the following page and then select the Power Supply Unit right for the application.

CPU and Expansion Racks
If the number of modules per rack exceeds 10 or the current consumption is greater than the capacity of the Power Supply
Units, use the CPU and Expansion Rack configuration. This divides the load from the modules across two Power Supply
Units. To ensure communication and automatic channel assignment in programming, order an I/O Control Module for the
CPU Rack and an I/O Interface Module on each Expansion Rack.

The amount of current/power that can be supplied to the Modules mounted in a Rack is limited by the capacity of the
Power Supply Unit.
Design the system so that the total current consumption of the Modules does not exceed the maximum current for
each voltage group and the total power consumption does not exceed the maximum for the Power Supply Unit.
B. Calculate Maximum Total Power Supply
(See the table below.)

Note:1. When calculating current/power consumption in a CPU Rack — be sure to include the power required by the
CPU itself. When expanding the configuration, be sure to include the power required by the I/O Control Module.
2. When calculating current/power consumption in an Expansion Rack — be sure to include the power required by
the I/O Interface Module itself.

System Power, Expansion and I/O Allocations
I/O Allocations
J
Overview
In CJ1 Series PLCs, I/O memory is allocated based on
the following: Basic I/O are automatically assigned words
based on position in the rack. In contrast, for Communica-
tions and Bus I/O, the user assigns the word allocations
within set ranges.
J
Allocations to Basic I/O
Module Groups
Allocated words in the CIO Area: CIO 0000 to CIO 0079
Basic I/O Modules can be mounted to the CPU Rack and to
the Expansion Racks.
CPU Rack Allocations
Basic I/O Modules on the CPU Rack are allocated words
left to right (i.e., from the module nearest the CPU) starting
from CIO 0000. Modules are allocated as many words as
required in word units. Words can be reserved using
CX-Programmer Software.
Up to 10 modules
can be mounted.

Allocations to Expansion Racks
I/O allocation to Basic I/O Modules continues from the CPU
Rack to the Expansion Racks. Words are allocated from
left to right, and each module is allocated as many words
as it requires in word units— just like modules in the CPU
Rack. A Rack’s first word setting can be changed to any
word from CIO 0000 to CIO 9999.
Words allocated from the left.

Modules with between 1 and 16 I/O points are allocated 1
word (16 bits), and modules having between 17 and 32 I/O
points are allocated 2 words (32 bits). For example, 8-point
Relay Modules are allocated 1 word, with bits 00 to 07
actually allocated to the I/O points.
