Installation Guide 
V570-57-T40B, V570-57-T20B,  
& V570-57-T20B-J 

This guide provides basic information for Unitronics’ controllers V570-57-T40B, V570-57-T20B & 
V570-57-T20B-J.   

General Description 

V570 OPLCs are programmable logic controllers that comprise a built-in operating panel containing a 
5.7” 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 
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 

V570 supports digital, high-speed, 
analog, weight and temperature 
measurement 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
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 <i> button 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.
