Schneider TSX3710101 Programmable Logic Controller for Modicon TSX Micro

The Schneider TSX3710101 serves as a compact programmable logic controller for small automation tasks. You can mount this unit directly onto a DIN rail inside the control cabinet. It executes user logic and manages local I/O points efficiently. This PLC suits machine control, packaging, and material handling applications.

Technical Specifications and Hardware Layout

The Schneider TSX3710101 measures 100 mm in height. Its width reaches 70 mm, and the depth equals 65 mm. The Schneider TSX3710101 weighs approximately 0.35 kilograms. A single internal PCB holds the processor, memory, and I/O circuits. The unit contains no energy storage capacitors or batteries. One 9-pin D-sub port provides a programming and debug connection. One 20-pin terminal block handles built-in I/O wiring. Four status LEDs display power, run, and fault conditions.

Memory Capacity and I/O Specifications

The Schneider TSX3710101 provides 32 KB of user program memory. It handles up to 1000 ladder logic instructions comfortably. This PLC includes ten 24 V DC digital input channels. It also delivers six transistor output channels for actuator control. Each output switches 0.5 A at 24 V DC continuously. Consequently, this unit controls small machines and conveyors effectively. The PLC supports expansion via the internal bus for additional I/O modules. A built-in real-time clock tracks system time during power-off periods.

Installation and Programming Features

You must mount the Schneider TSX3710101 on a DIN rail using the integral clips. Transitioning to programming, use Modicon PL7 software via the serial port. The PLC includes a three-position keyswitch for run, stop, and program modes. Four front LEDs show power, run, I/O status, and fault conditions clearly. A built-in watchdog timer resets the processor on software hangs. The operating temperature range spans from 0°C to 55°C reliably.
