Installation Guide
V570-57-T20B and V570-57-T40B
This guide provides basic information for Unitronics’ controllers V570-57-T20B and V570-57-T40B.
General Description
Vision OPLCs are programmable logic controllers that comprise an integral operating panel.
V570-57-T20B and V570-57-T40B comprise a color touchscreen, which displays a virtual keyboard
when the application requires the operator to enter data.
Communications  2 isolated RS232/RS485 ports
 Isolated CANbus port, CANopen & UniCAN
 The user can order and install an Ethernet port
 Communication Function Blocks include: SMS, GPRS, MODBUS
serial/IP Protocol FB enables PLC to communicate with almost any
external device, via serial or Ethernet communications
I/O Options Vision supports up to 512
1
digital,
high-speed, and analog I/Os via:
 Snap-in I/O Modules
Plug into the back of the
controller to provide an on-
board I/O configuration
 I/O Expansion Modules
Via adaptor, local or remote
I/Os may be added via
expansion port or CANbus
Installation instructions and other data may be found in the module’s technical
specification sheet.
Information Mode This mode enables you to:
 Calibrate the touchscreen
 View & Edit operand values, COM port settings, RTC and screen
contrast/brightness settings
 Stop, initialize, and reset the PLC
To enter Information Mode, press the touchscreen and maintain contact for
several seconds.
Programming
Software,
& Utilities
The Unitronics Setup CD contains VisiLogic software and other utilities
 VisiLogic
Easily configure hardware and write both HMI and Ladder control
applications; the Function Block library simplifies complex tasks
such as PID. Write your application, and then download it to the
controller via the programming cable included in the kit.
 Utilities
These include UniOPC server, Remote Access for remote
programming and diagnostics, and DataXport for run-time data
logging.
To learn how to use and program the controller, as well as use utilities such as
Remote Access, refer to the VisiLogic Help system.
