Introduction

Basic Cam Switch Operation

A PLµS control’s main purpose is to operate outputs in a manner that simulates cam switches. The drawing to the right illustrates the operation of a cam switch. Its function is to switch the load on and off at the same rotary positions of the cam shaft during each revolution of that cam shaft. The rotating cam shaft is driven by a machine at a 1:1 ratio, so that the on / off positions of the cam switch always match specific positions in the machine cycle. However, cam limit switches have the following disadvantages: unreliable (wear), hard to adjust (machine must be stopped during adjustment), and they cannot run at high speeds because of contact bounce and excessive mechanical wear.

PLµS controls overcome these basic cam switch problems. They have no moving wear parts, they are easy to adjust from the keyboard with the machine running or stopped, and they can operate at speeds up to 3000 RPM. They also add many capabilities far beyond simple cam switch logic.

Standard Product Features

Basic Cam Switch Operation

The limit switch will turn on and off at the same cam degree positions every cam revolution (every machine cycle)

Keyboard/Controller

The keyboard controller is the main component of the PLµS system. The front keypad and displays provide a complete user interface from which every aspect of the control’s operation can be monitored and programmed. When properly mounted with the gasket provided, the keyboard meets NEMA 4 standards. A clear silicon rubber boot assembly is available to provide NEMA 4X protection for installations where harsh washdown chemicals are used.

Ease of Setup

All output position setpoint values are simply entered through the numeric keypad. These setpoints can be adjusted while the machine is running or stopped by using the increment, decrement, or numeric keys. The keyboard is also used to synchronize the control’s position to the machine, eliminating the need to mechanically adjust the resolver’s shaft position.

Multiple Programs

Depending on the model ordered, up to 64 different programs, or “job recipes” can be stored in the control’s memory. This minimizes down time for job change over because simply changing program numbers makes all of the output setting changes required. Program numbers can be changed by mechanical switches; PLC’s (using the hardware program select inputs); the keypad; or serial communication messages.

Output Speed Compensation

Speed compensation allows outputs to compensate for the response time of the controlled devices by turning on earlier as machine speeds increase. This eliminates the need to adjust output settings whenever machine speeds are changed. Using speed compensation often allows higher production speeds and eliminates the need for output adjustments.

Motion ANDing

A speed range can be programmed into the controller, and outputs can then be ANDed with the speed range so that they will be disabled unless the machine speed is within the range. This can be used to turn off outputs if the machine stops; disable outputs until the machine reaches a minimum speed; or disable outputs if the machine goes above a specified maximum speed. A common use for this feature is disabling outputs to glue valves so the flow of glue turns off if the machine stops.

Timed Outputs

Outputs can be programmed to turn on at the programmed “on” position and turn off when the specified time elapses, rather than staying on until an “off” position is reached. The result is a constant output duration, regardless of machine speed. The output will turn off when the “off” position is reached if it hasn’t already timed out. Timed outputs are used to drive devices which require a fixed time to perform a task, regardless of machine speed.

1-1 Introduction

Standard Product Features (continued)

Selectable Scale Factor (resolvers only)

The number of increments per revolution (Scale Factor) is programmed by the user. Standard controls have a maximum of 1024 increments per revolution and “-H” option (high resolution) controls have a maximum of 4096 increments per revolution. To make the control operate and program in degrees, a Scale Factor of 360 is used. In some applications it is desirable to use a Scale Factor that defines each increment as a specific distance in engineering units (ex: 1 inc = .1" of travel).

Output Grouping and Modes of Operation

Outputs can be subdivided into groups and each group can be associated with an input device. There are five different modes of operation that can be selected for each group. For example, some modes allow the group to activate only when the corresponding input has signaled that product is present. Glue control is a typical place where outputs are disabled until product is sensed as being present. For details, see page A-1.

Optional Product Features

Analog Output, “-A”

Units with this option can output an analog signal that is linearly proportional to RPM. The analog signal level at zero RPM can be programmed through the keyboard, as well as the RPM that corresponds to maximum signal. No measuring equipment is required for initial setup, and calibration is not needed. Typical uses are control of glue pressure as machine speed changes, and speed matching of other equipment to the machine being controlled.

Outputs Based On Rotation Direction, “-D”

In standard PLµS controllers, outputs will turn ON/OFF based on resolver position, regardless of which way the resolver is turning. With the "-D" option, outputs can be based on resolver rotation direction.

Large Program Memory, “-F”

Depending on the number of outputs ordered, standard controls can store up to 64 programs consisting of not more than 1258 output pulses total. Controls with the “-F” option increase this capacity by storing up to 256 programs consisting of not more than 4589 output pulses total.

Gray Code Position Output, “-G”

The “-G” option provides eight bits of position information on the last eight outputs. This “gray code” output can be connected to a PLC or other electronic control device, eliminating the need for expensive accessory cards. The PLC can then make control decisions that do not demand a fast response, while other PLµS outputs directly control devices that must operate quickly and consistently.

High Resolution, “-H” (resolvers only)

Controls with this option can divide the resolver shaft

Serial Communication

Serial communication provides an RS-232 and an RS-485 communication port. Using PLµSNET software for IBM compatible computers, available from Electro Cam Corp., the control’s entire program can be saved from the control to a disk file or loaded from a disk file to the control. The program can be printed or edited using the computer. It is also possible to send individual communication commands to the control, while running, to change settings in the program. The user must write appropriate software to communicate at the individual command level.

Expanded Operator Access

This feature gives the operator access to motion detection settings, offset, active program number, and speed compensation.

NOTE: Serial Communication and Expanded Operator Access were "-C" and "-E" options prior to date code

9740.

rotation into as many as 4096 increments. Standard controls have a maximum of 1024 increments.

Leading/Trailing Edge Speed Comp, “-L”

This option allows the “on” and “off” edges of output pulses to be speed compensated by different amounts. High speed gluing is a common application where the “on” and “off” edges of the output signal have to be compensated by different amounts.

Phase Mark Registration, “-P”

Phase mark registration allows the PLµS control to determine if a product appears before or after a programmed timing window. If mis-registration occurs, the product’s timing can be adjusted manually, or by a PLC or similar controller interfaced to the PLuS control.

Caustic Washdown Boot, “-W”

The face of the keyboard is rated NEMA 4X (meets NEMA 1, 4, 4X, and 12). For additional protection against caustic washdown, grease, oil, dirt, and normal wear, a clear silicone rubber boot is available that fits over and around the keyboard. The back of the boot provides a good seal between the back of the keyboard and the control panel. The boot is transparent and pliable, allowing the keyboard to be viewed and operated through it. Controls ordered with the “-W” option are shipped with the boot fitted over the keyboard. Boots may also be ordered separately and installed in the field (#PS-4904-99-001).

Remote Display

A remote display which connects to the RS-485 port is available for units ordered with both the “-C” and “-E” options. This allows position and RPM information to be displayed up to 1000 feet away from the controller.

Logic Terminal Strip Wiring—Standard Controller

Logic Terminal Strip

(see pp. 2-1 thru 2-3 for location)

General Logic Input Information

The logic inputs, Terminals 2-7 & 9, are switched by a current sinking path to Logic Common. They can be switched by mechanical switches, relays, or NPN transistor outputs. Logic input terminal voltage is approximately 12 VDC, and 4 mA of current are conducted through the switch to Logic Common.

Program Select Inputs (Terminals 3, 4, and 5) These inputs determine which program in the current program bank is controlling the outputs. When any of these inputs are connected to Logic Common, they take priority over the keyboard selected active program (FCN 3). If these inputs are being used, make sure that the FCN 3 active program is set to 1. Input combinations are:

PRG # 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

SEL 1 off on on off off on on off SEL 2 off off o n on on on off off SEL 3 off off off off on on on on

Master Program Enable (Terminal 6) When the Master Program Enable input is switched to Logic Common, all programming operations are accessible. A key switch is commonly used for this input to prevent unauthorized personnel from accessing the more complicated features of the control. A temporary jumper can also be installed for initial programming at the master level, and then removed when this programming is completed.

Output Group 1 Enable (Re-Zero Input) (Terminal 7) On standard 5XX1 controls, switching this input to Logic Common instantly changes the control's position to zero degrees. The position re-zeroes off of the leading edge of the signal, but is not held at zero while the input is energized. When the controller is de-energized, the controller position will revert to the offset value programmed in FCN 2.

Program Select Switch and Cable: Pt# PS-4901-01-XXX (XXX=FT)

Program Enable key switch and cable: PS-4902-01-XXX (XXX=FT)

Input from photo sensor typically

To PLC or other electronic input

Program Enable key switch and cable: PS-4902-01-XXX (XXX=FT)

DC power for accessories, typically photo sensors. Terminals 1 and 2 are negative side of this supply

On models PS-5004, 5104, 5024, and 5124 this input is the enable input for output Group 1. There are four programmable modes of operation available for enable inputs. For more information see the Output Grouping and Enable Modes section in the Appendix.

Motion Detection Output (Terminal 8) This is a sourcing output signal that is on whenever the current machine speed is within or equal to the Low and High RPM setpoints (FCN 1, page 4-7). The circuit is basically a 12 VDC supply being sourced through a 470 ohm resistor. It is typically connected to PLC inputs or external solid state output modules. Because the 5000 Series controls have Motion ANDing, any of the standard outputs can be programmed to be on whenever the motion logic is on. This is an alternative to the Motion Output when it is not compatible with an input circuit or if a higher voltage or current needs to be controlled.

Operator Program Enable (Terminal 9) When this terminal is switched to Logic Common, access to programming at the Operator level is enabled. A key switch can be used to control who can make program changes at the Operator level. Operator access can also be enabled through a keyboard enable code number.

12 VDC Power Output (Terminal 10) The 12 VDC accessory power supply is regulated and capable of supplying up to 150 mA. It is protected by a 1/4 amp fuse which is located just below the Logic Terminal strip. This supply is intended to be used for electronic sensors or other electronic circuitry. It should not be used to power relays or any other inductive devices. Logic Common (terminals 1 or 2) is the negative side of this 12 VDC supply.

Sinking means that when the logic is true and the output (or input device) is ON, the output (or input device)

is providing a DC common or ground to the connected device. Sourcing means that when the logic is true and the output (or input device) is ON, the output (or input device)

Built-In Transistor I/O Chips: Specifications

PS-5011 PS-5111

The output board which contains the output transistor array chips and the fuse(s) is located under the output board cover. The pluggable output terminal strips plug into receptacles that are mounted to the output board The only time it will be necessary to remove the output board cover is when an output fuse is blown or a transistor array chip is damaged.

Output Transistor Array Chips:

Each group of 8 output transistors is contained in a single 18 pin transistor array chip. If one or more of these transistors becomes damaged, the chip can simply be unplugged from the socket and replaced. Note that Sinking and Sourcing output boards do not use the same transistor array chip.

Output Fuses:

Each group of 8 outputs (1 transistor array chip) is protected by a 1 Amp plug in fuse. This fuse will blow if the DC power polarity is incorrectly wired to the “+” and “-” terminals on the output terminal strip. On the sourcing output versions this fuse will also blow if the total amount of current being

3-6 Wiring

conducted by that group of 8 outputs exceeds 1 Amp. If a fuse blows, all 8 of the outputs in that group will be inoperative until the fuse is replaced.

Output Cables:

Pluggable screw terminal strips are used to connect the transistor outputs to the load device. Therefore, no special connectors are needed for output wiring. However, shielded cable is recommended (Electro Cam part #: PS-4300-04XXX, 2 cables required for systems with more than 8 outputs) to maximize immunity to electrical noise. The shield should be connected to the grounding screw located on the back panel just above the output terminal strips. The shield should be unconnected at the load end of the cable. Also, the cable should be kept away from other electrical wiring, especially control wiring involving solenoids, relays, contactors, and motors.

PS-5X34 Controller & 32 DC Output Rack

Introduction

The PS-5X34 system is available with either 32 or 64 low current transistor outputs. These systems are intended to be interfaced directly to PLCs or other control devices with low level DC inputs.

The 32 transistor output rack(s) used with PS-5X34 controls can be DIN rail mounted (-D) or foot mounted (-F) and are available with Sinking or Sourcing outputs.

Systems that require 32 or fewer outputs will only need one of the transistor output racks. Systems requiring more than 32 outputs need two transistor output racks daisy chained together (see rack configuration section below).

1/2" (13mm)

(229mm)

7/8"

(22mm)

1/4" (6mm)

The PS-5X34 controller incorporates the same keyboard and features that other PS-5000 controls use. Because of the large number of outputs being controlled, the number of programs stored in a 32 output controller is 32, and the number of programs in a 64 output controller is 16.

This control has PS-5XX4 capabilities (output grouping and modes) and includes an RS-232/485 communications port. Outputs can be subdivided into as many as 8 groups, and the position of each of these groups can be offset individually. Because the rack transistor outputs cannot be configured as inputs, the only enable input available is the "Output Group Enable 1" input located on the logic strip. Output Group 1 can operate in any output mode, all other groups must operate in Mode 0 only.

Output Rack Configuration

Control systems requiring 32 or fewer outputs will need only 1 PS-4100-12-X32 transistor output rack. The "Rack Address Jumper" must be plugged into position 1. This will configure the outputs to be channels 1-32. 1 rack cable (Pt# PS-4300-02-XXX) will be needed to connect the rack to the controller.

Control systems requiring more than 32 outputs will need 2 PS-4100-12-X32 transistor output racks. The "Rack Address Jumpers" must be plugged into position 1 on one of the racks, and position 2 on the other. Output channel numbers will be assigned as shown in the illustration to the right. 2 rack cables (Pt# PS-4300-02-XXX) will be needed: one to connect the controller to the first rack and the other to connect the two racks.

The output circuits of the Sinking and Sourcing output boards are powered through the "User Power Fuses." If the outputs on these boards are malfunctioning, check that both fuses are good before investigating the transistor array chips. If the fuses are good, the "User Power LED" will be lit. When either fuse is blown, the LED will not light and all 32 outputs will be dead. Verify that "User DC Power" is present.

The transistor array chips and jumper blocks used on the Sinking board are socketed for field replacement. In the event of a wiring error or accidental short circuit, it is possible to damage one or more array chip. In these situations, replacing the ULN-2813 chip(s) will usually correct the problem. The orientation of the these chips is critical with respect to their notched ends. Insure that all chips are oriented in the direction shown in the

illustration to the left.

The jumper blocks installed in the sockets next to the terminal strips do NOT short together all 9 sets of parallel socket holes - one set is left open. Insure that the open set of holes is at the correct end of the corresponding socket as pictured in the illustration to the left. A connection between these two

holes will short out the "User DC Power" supply and cause one of the "User DC Power Fuses" to blow.

Programming Access Levels

Levels of Programming Access

The 5000 Series of controls have three levels of programming access. Entry into these levels of programming is accomplished through dedicated hardware inputs and/or programmable enable codes entered through the keyboard.

Master Level—Accesses all programmable features. In addition to all setpoints and functions, the Master Level also establishes the keyboard entry codes for the “Setup” and “Operator” access levels. Master Level programming also determines which outputs are accessible to the operator.

NOTE: On units prior to date code 9740, operator access was limited to setpoints and timed output values, unless equipped with the Expanded Operator Access (-E) option.

Setup Level—Accesses all output setpoints and the functions listed on the keyboard. These are control aspects that may need occasional adjustment, but go beyond normal operator responsibilities.

Operator Level—Functions available as specified in Master Level programming. The operator is allowed to change the following settings for output channels designated in FCN 6:

• Setpoints • Offset

• Timeouts • Active Program Number

• Motion Detection Settings • Speed Comp Settings

The table below details which functions and set points can be changed at the three levels of programming access. It also indicates if the programming access levels can be accessed by hardware input and/or keyboard enable code.

The PGM key allows programs other than the current active program to be viewed and or edited. The program number selected for viewing/editing is shown in the display directly above the PGM key. When the PGM LED is lit, the

program number displayed is also the current active program.

3 - Channel Key, LED and Display

The CHN key allows the desired output channel to be selected for setpoint viewing/programming. The selected channel number is shown in the display directly above the CHN key. When the CHN LED is lit, the channel currently selected is in the ON state. The CHN key is also used to select channel numbers during Function programming. Details are given in the programming sections.

4 - Value Display, Position/RPM Key and LEDs, ON Key and LED, PULSE Key and LED, OFF Key and LED, and View Keys

The POS/RPM key selects between Position and RPM being shown in the value display immediately to the left of the key. The corresponding POS or RPM LED will be lit when either item is displayed. Pressing the POS/RPM

allows programming functions to be exited/aborted and returns the control to displaying Position or RPM.

The ON and OFF keys are used to specify the ON and OFF pulse edges during setpoint programming. The corresponding ON and OFF LEDs will be lit during these

setpoint programming operations. (The ON and OFF keys and LEDs are also used when programming the optional leading and trailing edge speed compensation feature).

The VIEW keys allow the current On and Off setpoints of the currently selected channel to be displayed in sequence, one at a time. The corresponding ON or OFF LED will be lit to indicate whether an ON or OFF edge is currently displayed. The >VIEW key displays the setpoints in increasing numeric order, the <VIEW key displays them in decreasing numeric order.

The PULSE key allows setpoint pairs (pulses) to be incremented and decremented simultaneously. When the PULSE LED is lit steadily, the pulse (both edges) whose edge is currently displayed will increment and decrement when the INC and DEC keys are pressed. Pressing the PULSE key a second time will cause the LED to blink. This indicates that the multi-pulse mode is activated and all of the pulses in the currently selected output channel will increment and decrement when the INC and DEC keys are pressed.

5 - MOTION, POWER and CPU LEDs

The Motion LED is lit whenever the machine speed is within the current motion setpoints (FCN 1).

The Power LED is lit whenever the PLuS control is powered up.

The CPU LED only lights when a Fatal error condition is detected by the controller. A list of these error conditions is detailed on page A-5 of this manual.

6 - Numeric Keys, CLR/CLE Key, ENT Key, INC and DEC Keys

The number keys are used to input all numeric values needed during setpoint and function programming.

The CLR/CLE key is used to clear numeric values during programming operations.

The ENT key is used to actually enter numeric values into the controller after they have been keyed in. Failing to press ENT when programming numeric values will result in the old value remaining in the control's memory. Numeric value changes must be “Entered” by pressing the ENT key before they are accepted by the controller.

The INC and DEC keys cause numeric values that are displayed in the controls POS display to be incremented and/or decremented each time the corresponding key is pressed. Output setpoints, speed compensation and timed output values are examples of items that can be incremented and decremented with the INC and DEC keys.

Master Level Programming, Standard Controls: FCN 0

FCN 0 Programming at the Master Level

(Master Program Enable Input MUST be energized) Function 0 allows specific features of the PLµS control to be

programmed when the Master Program Enable input is energized. Standard Function 0 features include: Direction of Increasing Rotation, Scale Factor, Set-up Enable Code, Operator Enable Code, and Output Timing Resolution. Normally, the features controlled by Function 0 will be programmed only once for a specific application.

Optional Function 0 features are covered under “Options Programming,” Section 5. They include: Sc

(leading/trailing edge speed comp), ct (communication type), cS (communication Speed), cA (communication Address), and rU (RPM update frequency).

dr - Direction of Increasing Rotation

This allows the direction of increasing rotation of the position transducer (encoder / resolver) to be cL (clockwise) or ccL (counter clockwise) as required by the machine installation. This is normally set so the position value increases when the machine turns in its forward direction.

Resolver: cL or ccL as viewed from shaft end.

SF - Scale Factor (Resolver units only)

The Scale Factor is the number of increments each revolution of the resolver will be broken into. A Scale Factor of 360 (0-

359) allows programming to be done in degrees. A Scale Factor of 1024 (0-1023) allows setpoint programming to be done at fine resolution (.35 degree increments).

Scale Factors range from 2-1024 on standard 5000 controls. Scale Factors range from 2-4096 on high resolution 5000

controls (“H” option). Note: When Scale Factor is changed, all programmed

setpoints are recalculated to convert them to the new Scale Factor. The keyboard will be inoperative during this time. Scale Factor value will blink once when calculation is completed.

The timing resolution is selectable between 1 mSec and .5 mSec increments on 8, 9, and 16 output controls (24 and 48 output controls have a fixed 1 mSec tb and do not display tb in FCN 0). All timed outputs use the same time base. Timing accuracy of all timed outputs is -0, +1 tb increment. The number of outputs that can be timed is affected by the time base selected: (24 and 48 output systems can time up to 4 outputs) 1mSec tb - Up to 8 outputs can be timed (.001 - 9.999 Sec) .5 mSec tb - Up to 4 outputs can be timed (.0005 - .9995 Sec) Note: Adding too many timed outputs will cause an E9 programming error. The “.5” tb value will flash and cannot be selected if more than 4 timed outputs already exist in FCN 5.

Consult factory if more timed outputs are required.

Enhanced Position/RPM Display Logic

All PS-51XX (Resolver) Series controls made after 5/12/92 include a feature that allows the user to program the display default to RPM, position, or automatically switch between RPM and position. Previous controls always defaulted to displaying RPM with the POS/RPM key, allowing manual selection of the item displayed. The POS/RPM key still

4-5 Programming, Standard Features

ct, cS, cA - Communication Parameters

ct - communication type: Specifies the type of

communication port being used by the PLµS control. It contains both an RS-232 and an RS-485 port. RS-485 is the default setting. Both of these ports share the DB-9 connector located at the top of the power supply section. The type of port being used on the PLµS must match the type of port being used by the device communicating with the PLµS.

cS - communication Speed: Specifies the baud rate (bits per second) that the PLµS communication port will operate at. It must be set for the same baud rate as the device communicating with the PLµS control. The choices are: 4800, 9600, 19200, and 38400 baud. 9600 is the default

setting. cA - communication Address: Each control can have

a unique communication address (0-255) because multiple controls can be wired to the same host device in a RS-485 network. This allows the host to send information to a specific control while the other controls will ignore the information. A PLµS control will ignore incoming information if the address that information specifies does not match the communication address of the control.

Master Level Programming, PS-5XX4 Only: FCN 8 & FCN 9

FCN 8 - Subdividing Outputs into Groups

(Master Program Enable Input MUST be Energized) The outputs can be subdivided into as many as eight output

groups. The number of output groups and the number of outputs in each group is determined by FCN 8.

Each output group can be set at a unique degree position through FCN 2 (CHN key selects Output group #).

When more than one output group exists the POS/RPM key will individually display each group's position by showing the group number above the CHN key while showing the current position next to the POS/RPM key.

When the number of outputs in each group is being assigned, all of the outputs must be accounted for. The last output group will automatically contain the outputs remaining after the number of outputs in the other groups is defined. The number of outputs in the last group automatically changes if the total number of outputs in the other groups is changed.

Each output group can have a dedicated enable input and be assigned to operated in any one of the Output Enable Modes. See FCN 9 for programming Enable Inputs and Modes.

See Output Grouping and Enable Modes section in the appendix of this manual for further information on output grouping.

Note: Once programmed in a channel, this function will be present in that channel in all programs.

FCN 9 - Enable Inputs and Enable Modes

(Master Program Enable Input MUST be Energized) The number of Enable Inputs and the mode of operation for

each output group with an Enable input is determined by FCN 9.

The 1st Enable Input (Output Group Enable 1) is located on the Logic terminal strip. If additional Enable Inputs are programmed, they will be input modules on the I/O rack, starting in order from the first module position (Group 2 Enable: module position 1; Group 3 Enable: module position 2; etc.). Each additional Enable Input reduces the available outputs by one, and automatically reduces the last output group by one output.

Brief Summary of Enable Modes: Mode 0 - Normal PLS operation, no Enable Input.

Mode 1 - Enable Input causes Group position to re-zero. Mode 2 - Enable Input causes Group position to re-zero

and enables outputs to cycle during next

revolution. Mode 3 - Group outputs are on only if Enable Input is on. Mode 4 - Enable Input (within enable window) enables

outputs to cycle during next revolution; group

position does not re-zero. Modes 1, 2, and 4 require enable windows to be programmed.

Channel 91 is enable window for Group 1, channel 92 for Group 2 and etc. See Enable Modes in appendix for details.

FCN 3 - Program Number

(Setup or Master program enable must be active) The Active Program is the program (machine setup) which

is currently controlling the outputs. The total number of programs available are subdivided into groups of eight which are called Program Banks. Each Program Bank contains eight individual programs.

When all Program Select inputs are off the keyboard selected Active Program will be active.

The number of Program Banks available varies with the number of outputs the control has as follows:

8-16 outputs - 8 Banks - 64 Programs total

24 outputs - 6 Banks - 48 Programs total 48 outputs - 3 Banks - 24 Programs total

A convenient Program number (Pn) feature allows the desired program number (1-64) to be viewed or entered directly without having to enter the corresponding values into the Program bank (Pb) and Active Program (AP) parameters. This is the method described below under “Viewing or Changing Program Numbers from Keyboard.”

Setup Level Programming, Standard Controls: FCN 1, FCN 2, FCN 3

If the hardware program select inputs are going to be used to select programs (they can be driven from a PLC or selector switch), it may be necessary to program the Program bank (Pb) and Active Program (AP) from the keyboard. Follow the instructions given below under “Hardware Selection of Program Number.”

Viewing or Changing Active Program Number from Keyboard

Use the Program number (Pn) feature of FCN 3 to see the active program number or select any program directly by entering the corresponding number from 1-64. The corresponding “Pb” and “AP” values will automatically be calculated and selected. It will not be necessary to calculate or program “Pb” or “AP”, but they can be viewed to verify that their values correspond to the selected program number.

Pn— Program number (1-64) Pb— Program bank (1-8); 8 banks of 8 programs each AP— Active Program (1-8); active program within bank

Example:

If Program number (Pn) 34 is selected, “Pb” will equal five (5th bank of eight programs) and “AP” will equal two (2nd program within this bank).

DO NOT enter values into “Pb” or “AP” if the keyboard program selection is being used. Simply program “Pn” to the desired program number from 1-64.

Setup Level Programming, Standard Controls: FCN 4

FCN 4 - Speed Compensation

(Setup or Master program enable must be active) Speed Compensation is the ability of the control to

automatically advance an output's setpoints as the machine speeds up, thus compensating for the response of the device being controlled. Each output can be individually compensated by a unique amount. This allows all output devices to be properly compensated, even though their responses may vary widely.

Standard speed compensation advances and retards both the on and off edges of output pulses by the same amount, proportional to the present machine speed.

Leading/Trailing Edge speed compensation, available on controllers with the “L” option, allows a different amount of compensation to be set for the leading and trailing output edges in each channel. See page 5-1 for details.

Gray Code speed compensation is available on controllers with the “G” option. See page 5-3 for details.

Speed compensation is set in units of Degrees/1000 RPM, regardless of the scale factor being used. If the response of the output device is known, the amount of Speed Comp required can be calculated:

Speed Comp (Deg/1000 RPM) = 6 x response (in mSec) EX: 20 mSec response: 6 x 20 = 120 (Deg/1000 RPM)

Program the output for the correct on and off setpoints at zero speed and then program speed comp value.

If the device response is not known, program output for the correct on and off setpoints at zero machine speed. Program

Note: 1 Degree/1000 RPM resolution allows Speed Comp to be adjusted very accurately. Because the adjustment is so fine, it may be necessary to make larger changes to the Speed Comp value to see a change in machine performance. A change of 6 degrees/1000 RPM is needed to make a 1 mSec difference to the device being controlled.

FCN 4 - Negative Speed Compensation

(Input Gating)

Example: Assume a product sensor requires 5 msec to

respond, and an output channel provides a reference window to a PLC. The PLC will trigger an action only if the sensor

(Setup or Master program enable must be active)

This feature is included on the following units which were built after 5-19-92, date codes 9222 or greater. The date code is printed beneath the model code on the label on the back of the controller:

• All PS-51XX (Resolver) units

• All PS-50XX (Encoder) units date code 9740 or newer, and units with "E" option prior to 9740.

Negative Speed Compensation causes an output channel to lag its programmed machine position by the specified degrees/1000 RPM. It is used when an input sensor is being

indicates a product is present during the output channel‘s reference window. At 1000 RPM, the resolver will rotate (5 msec x 6), or 30 degrees during the sensor response time. If the reference window isn’t also delayed by 30 degrees per 1000 RPM, the sensor signal may miss the reference window.

Negative Speed Compensation is programmed in Deg/ 1000 RPM. If the response of the input device is known, the amount of Negative Speed Compensation needed can be calculated:

Speed Comp (Deg/1000 RPM) = 6 x response (in mSec) EX: 10 mSec response -6 x 10 = -60 (Deg/1000 RPM)

gated by the corresponding output channel into another system (PLC, registration control, etc.) Since most sensors have very fast response times, negative speed comp is needed only where the sensor is slow to respond, or the machine speeds are high and sensor timing is critical.

Because the PLuS control has individual speed compensation for each output channel, it is possible to have some outputs compensated positively while others are set for Negative Speed Compensation.

FCN 4 - Negative Speed Comp (continued)

In order to activate Negative Speed Compensation, the corresponding channel must first be set equal to “0” speed compensation in FCN 4, and then decremented by pressing the DEC key. Speed compensation for that channel will then stay in the negative mode until it is set back to “0” speed compensation.

Whenever Negative Speed Compensation is programmed, the speed compensation value shown in the position display will have a minus (“-”) sign in the left-most digit.

Note: To restore Positive Speed Compensation set the compensation value back to 0. Then key in desired amount of Positive Speed Compensation.

FCN 5 - Timed Outputs

(Setup or Master program enable must be active) Outputs can be turned off after a specified time duration,

instead of staying on until the off position setpoint is reached. Any output can be timed, and each timed output can specify a unique time dwell. This is appropriate for devices which require a specific output time, regardless of machine speed.

Timed outputs are programmed like standard outputs with “on” and “off” position setpoints specified. A timed output will turn on at the specified “on” position setpoint, and will turn off after the specified time delay or when the “off” position setpoint is reached, whichever occurs first. If the time out

value is set to zero, the output will not be timed.

If an E9 tdE error message occurs, too many timed outputs exist for the current time base selected. Either reduce the number of timed outputs or change the time base being used. See tb section of FCN 0 programming (page 4-5) for details.

To calculate output timing, use the following relationships:

RPM x 360 = Degrees per Minute Degrees per Minute ÷ 60 = Degrees per Second

Degrees per Second ÷ 1000 = Degrees per msec Therefore: RPM x .006 = Degrees per msec Example: Suppose a timing dwell of 20 msec has been

established. At 1000 RPM, the transducer will rotate:

1000 x .006, or 6° per msec During the 20 msec dwell time, the transducer will rotate

120° at 1000 RPM.

Analog Output: Option “-A”

FCN 1 Ao, Ah - Analog Output Signal

(Units with "A" option only)

The analog option allows PLµS controls to output an analog signal that is linearly proportional to the current machine RPM. Analog output modules are available with either 0-10 VDC or 4-20 mA output. The two parameters that define the operation of the Analog output are the Offset and the High RPM (speed at which full scale signal occurs).

Ao - Analog offset: The Analog offset is the analog signal level that will be output when the machine º0is at zero RPM. This allows the minimum analog signal to be greater than zero volts or 4 mA, which is required in many applications. The offset is programmed in terms of the number of 12 bit (4096) increments that the minimum signal level should be. Calculate the Offset value to be programmed as follows:

For 20 mA: ((Min Sig - 4) / (16)) x 4096 EX: 5 mA Min Sig Ao = ((5-4)/(16)) x 4096 = 256

For 10 VDC: (Min Sig /10) x 4096

EX: 2 VDC Min Sig Ao = (2 / 10) x 4096 = 819 Ah - Analog high RPM: The Analog high RPM is the

lowest speed at which full scale analog output will occur. It is programmed in whole RPM.

Outputs Based On Direction of Rotation: Option “-D”

In standard PLµS controllers without the “-D” option, outputs will turn ON/OFF based on resolver position, regardless of which direction the resolver is turning. With the “-D” option, outputs can be based on the direction the resolver is rotating. Outputs can be set individually to be based on direction.

Direction ANDing: To choose which channels are to be based on direction, select Alternate Function 5. This is accomplished by pressing the FCN key and POS/RPM key simultaneously, then pressing 5, then pressing ENTER. The number 1 will appear above the channel key (CHN). OFF will appear in the displa y on the right, next to the POS/RPM key.

Speed Compensated Gray Code Output: Option “-G”

Gray Code Position Output -

( Units with the "G" Option)

Plµs Controls with the Gray Code output option output eight bit Gray Code position information on the last eight outputs. The position output takes into account the control's Offset value. Therefore, the Gray Code position matches the position shown on the control's position display. The Gray Code position output can be Speed Compensated as a group of outputs as shown below.

The Ladder Diagram shown on the right will convert the eight bit Gray Code output signal (G0-G7) from the PLuS control to a binary number (B0-B7) during each scan of the PLC. Because only one bit changes state per Gray Code increment, the decoding process is error free and does not require the use of latching or handshaking circuitry. The value of the Binary result will always be in the range of zero to 255 because the eight bit Gray Code divides each revolution into 256 uniform increments. Ladder rungs which follow the conversion can compare the rotary position value to known positions for control of machine devices that must operate at specific positions within the overall machine cycle. The rotary position of the machine cycle can also be used to gate input sensors and shift register functions.

Converting Gray Code to Binary involves a sequence of “Exclusive OR” operations. It is simple to program this same conversion logic in other programming languages besides ladder logic. In addition to decoding the rotary position of the encoder, controls with arithmetic capability can be programmed to offset position if required.

FCN 4 - Gray Code Speed Compensation

(Setup or Master program enable must be active) Speed Compensation is the ability of the control to

automatically advance an output's setpoints as the machine speeds up. The Gray Code position output can be Speed Compensated as a group by entering a speed comp value into the first channel of the Gray Code outputs (Least Significant Bit). All of the Gray Code output channels will be compensated by this same amount. The channels to enter Gray Code speed comp into are as follows:

16 output system: output channel 9 (9 = LSB) 24 output system: output channel 17 (17 = LSB) 48 output system: output channel 41 (41 = LSB)

Speed compensation is set in Degrees/1000 RPM, regardless of the scale factor being used. If the response of the device is known, the amount of Speed Comp required can be calculated:

Speed Comp (Deg/1000 RPM) = 6 x response (in mSec) EX: 20 mSec response: 6 x 20 = 120 (Deg/1000 RPM

Extra Program Storage: Option “-F”

PS-5000 Series PLµS controls containing the “F” option can store approximately four times as many output pulses (approximately 4500 pulses) in permanent memory as standard PS-5000 Series controls. The exact number of pulses that can be stored will vary between different models and features included.

An “F” option control can store as many as 992 different setpoint programs. Unlike other PLµS controls, a special “Pn” (program number) feature included in “F” controls allows direct access to any program by entering its 3-digit value. Also, the current active program number is displayed during normal operation as shown below.

Number of Pulses/Programs Available

The actual number of different programs that can be entered is determined by the total number of pulses that can be stored (approx. 4500) and the number of pulses needed for each program.

For example, if 14 outputs are being used and each output has 1 pulse per machine cycle, the total number of programs that could be stored would be:

4500 total pulses (approx) 14 pulses per program

= 321 programs

Special Alternate Functions have been included in the “F” option to report the total number of pulses that can be stored, and how many are currently programmed. See page A-16 for directions on accessing alternate functions.

ALT FCN 1010 displays exact total number of pulses available.

ALT FCN 1011 displays number of pulses presently programmed.

Pulses Remaining = ALT FCN 1010 minus ALT FCN 1011

!! WARNING !!

PLµS controls continuously calculate a checksum value which represents all of the programmed contents in the permanent memory. The control power must remain on

a minimum of five seconds after any programming change is made to insure that the new checksum has been calculated.

If power is turned off before the checksum is calculated, the control will have to check the validity of all programmed contents on the next power-up. This will take approximately 18-20 minutes. The control will not be able to run the machine during this time.

FCN 3 - Program Number Changes

The “F” option can store up to 992 unique programs in memory. These program numbers can be created and accessed in random order.

A convenient Program number (Pn) feature allows the desired program number (1-992) to be entered directly without having to enter the corresponding values into the Program bank (Pb) and Active Program (AP) parameters. This is the method described below under “Changing Program Numbers from Keyboard.”

If the hardware program select inputs are going to be used (they can be driven from a PLC or selector switch) to select programs, it may be necessary to program the Program bank (Pb) and Active Program (AP) from the keyboard.

The “P” option (phase mark registration) dedicates two PLuS outputs—Channels 14 & 15—as registration inspection windows for input to registration controls or PLCs. In many cases, this can replace mechanically adjusted registration sensor mechanisms at far less cost, without sacrificing ease of adjustment. Registration adjustments can be made through keyboard commands or dedicated increase and decrease hardware inputs (push buttons, etc.).

Output channels 14 and 15 are programmed individually so they have the output duration and phase relationship required by the registration control system. Once both channels are programmed, their setpoints can be simultaneously moved to any machine position without altering their duration or their phase relationship to each other. This greatly simplifies registration setup and adjustment. Outputs 14 and 15 can be used interchangeably as “too soon” and “too late” signals, and their pulse durations do not have to be equal.

300

Example 1 illustrates the following:

CHN 14 - ON @ 290 OFF @ 350 CHN 15 - ON @ 10 OFF @ 70 CENTER POSITION = 0

If the registration mark is sensed while CHN 14 is on, the registration control will determine that the material should be retarded. If the registration mark is sensed while CHN 15 is on, the registration control will determine that the material should be advanced. If the registration mark is sensed between the CHN 14 and CHN 15 on pulses, the registration is within tolerance and no adjustment is needed.

Example 2 illustrates the following:

CHN 14 - ON @ 320 OFF @ 20

Although the channel 14 and 15 values in example 2 seem very different from example 1, they are actually the same pulses phase shifted so that the center between them is now 30 instead of 0. To get from example 1 to example 2, it was NOT necessary to go into channels 14 or 15 to make changes, only the center position had to be changed. The pulses in outputs 14 and 15 are automatically adjusted to correspond to the new center position.

The following methods change the center position: Decrease/Increase Inputs (logic terminals 3 & 4)—

Energize the Decrease or Increase input to shift the registration pulses and center position by one increment in the corresponding direction (remote push buttons).

Center Input (logic terminal 5)—Energize the Center Input on the logic input strip to change the registration center position to the current machine position.

Channel 81—Select CHN 81 and the existing center value will be displayed. Press INC / DEC keys or key in a new center value and press ENT to change it.

Channel 80 - Select CHN 80 and press ENT to change the registration center position to the current machine position (machine was at 30 in example 2).

To accomplish registration control, it is necessary to wire channel 14 and 15 outputs, and the registration mark sensor, as inputs to a registration control system or PLC. Exact wiring is determined by the control system being used.

Some registration control systems will use the “off” portions of channels 14 and 15 as the registration windows. The “P” option can automatically handle these applications as well. Detailed explanation of this "Off" logic is on page 5-13.

Phase Mark Registration: Option “-P” (continued)

Logic Terminal Strip (see pgs. 2-1 thru 2-3 for location)

Terminals 6 thru 10 function the same as controllers without the “-P” Option. See pg. 3-1 for details.

Input Information

Registration Input Terminals

Input terminals 3, 4, and 5 have special registration functions on “-P” option controls. It is not possible to use these terminals to change programs from hardware inputs, as on 5000 Series controllers, without the “-P” option. Keyboard program selection (FCN 3) or serial communication must be used to change programs on “-P” option controls.

Terminals 3, 4, and 5 are always active. To program CHN 80 or CHN 81 through the keyboard, the Master, Set-Up, or Operator access levels must be activated through the logic terminal strip inputs or the keyboard enable codes.

General Logic Input Information

The logic inputs are energized by a current sinking path to Logic Common. They can be switched to common through the use of mechanical switches, relays, or NPN transistor outputs. The inputs are held at approximately 12 VDC and conduct 4 mA of current to common when energized.

Note: Substitute channels 7 & 8 for 14 & 15 on 9 output units.

Decrease Input (Terminal 3; normally Program Select 1) The decrease input is a one-shot that causes the programmed setpoints in both channels 14 and 15 to be decremented one step each time the input is energized (center decreases one step) . The control will display the new CHN 14 “on” value for two seconds after the input is energized.

Increase Input (Terminal 4; normally Program Select 2) The increase input is a one-shot that causes the programmed setpoints in both channels 14 and 15 to be incremented one step each time the input is energized (center increases one step) . The control will display the new CHN 14 “on” value for two seconds after the input is energized.

Center Input (Terminal 5; normally Program Select 3) The center input is a one-shot that causes the setpoints in channels 14 and 15 to automatically change so the current machine position becomes the registration center position. “SEt” will be displayed for two seconds after the input is energized (this function is equivalent to accessing CHN 80 or setting CHN 81 = current machine position).

Center Input will not function if outputs 14 and 15 do not each have a pulse programmed.

For this reason, CHN 81 is not part of the PLuSNET ASCII file used to store, edit and load the control’s programmed contents through serial communication.

Changes can be made by entering the new center position through the keyboard, eliminating the need to move the machine to a specific position.

Automatic Reversal of Centering Logic

Some registration control systems use the “Off” portion of the input signals as the registration correction windows. In these cases, outputs 14 and 15 will each be “On” for most of the revolution, and off only during the registration correction windows. The “P” option logic automatically handles these situations.

The control assumes that “Off” registration logic is being

used whenever the “On” duration of output 14 is greater than 180 degrees. In this “Off” logic mode, the registration centering functions (CHN 80, CHN 81 and the Center Input) are based on the smaller gap between the “Off” portions of outputs 14 and 15, rather than the smaller gap between the “On” portions. Examples 3 and 4 below are the “Off” logic equivalents of Examples 1 and 2 on page 5-5.

Output Grouping and Modes

Advantages of Grouping Outputs

PS-5XX4 controls can be subdivided into as many as eight different output groups. Each group can have dedicated enable input. There are two primary reasons to group outputs:

1. Outputs may be grouped together so they can be enabled if a specific input condition is met, and disabled if that input condition is not met.

A typical example of this situation is gluing. Usually a photo eye or other device senses the presence of product immediately before gluing should occur. If the product is not present, the corresponding glue outputs should not cycle. The controller can accomplish this type of logic in Modes 2, 3 or 4, if these glue outputs are grouped together and the corresponding sensor is connected to the input which controls this group of outputs.

2. The outputs are grouped together because they must maintain a constant phase relationship with each other while being able to vary their group phase relationship to the other outputs.

A typical example of this situation is a web converting process where individual items are being made from a web of material. Often times the phase relationship between different sections of the machine changes due to stretch and other variables. The outputs at each section must stay in phase with that section, not the position transducer. If the outputs for a given section are grouped, the phase of the group can be adjusted, rather than having to individually adjust each of the outputs in the group. The adjustments can be made manually from the keyboard or automatically by an external signal from a sensor or other control device.

A comprehensive understanding of the operating modes is required to realize the potential advantages of output grouping (pages A-3 to A-11 give detailed explanations of each of the five modes). The fact that each group can be in any of the five modes and operates independent of the other groups makes grouping a powerful tool in many applications.

Grouping Outputs and Establishing Modes

The programming of FCN 8 determines how many output groups are created and how many outputs will be in each group. FCN 9 programming determines how many inputs are available and the mode in which each input (and the corresponding group of outputs) will operate. The “Output Group Enable 1” terminal on the logic terminal strip (p. 3-

1) is always the input for Group 1. Additional inputs require

input modules, located in the initial positions of the I/O rack. These module positions are no longer available for outputs and the number of outputs available is reduced accordingly.

Outputs are assigned to the groups in sequential order. Therefore, Group 1 output(s) will start with the first available output (after the input modules on rack) and include the specified number of outputs. Group 2 will begin with the next output and run sequentially until its specified number of outputs is reached. This process continues for up to eight groups. However, the last group will automatically include all of the outputs that are left. Therefore, the number of outputs in the last group is affected by the number of outputs in the other groups and the number of additional inputs established.

How to Program

Output Grouping and Modes

1. Access FCN 8 and program the PGM display for the desired number of output groups. (see p. 4-9)

2. While in FCN 8 assign the desired number of outputs to each group except the last group (it will always contain all of the remaining outputs - this number will change if additional inputs are specified).

3. Access FCN 9 and program the PGM display for the desired number of inputs (see p. 4-9). Only one input per output group is allowed. (Inputs do not have to be allocated for groups operating in Mode 0, if these groups come after the groups that are using other modes.)

4. While in FCN 9 specify the mode of operation for each of the inputs established.

5. Program the appropriate input windows (CHN 91 Group 1, CHN 92 - Group 2, etc.) for groups that are operating in Modes 1, 2 or 4. These windows must be individually programmed in each program used.

Note: Detailed information on the operating characteristics of modes and the function of the input windows is itemized for each mode on pages A-3 to A-11.

Logic Input Compared to Input Modules

The input for output Group 1 is on the logic terminal strip of the controller. Additional inputs require the use of input modules on the I/O rack. The characteristics of each of these input types is as follows:

Logic Terminal Input - Accepts a sinking signal only. Does not give any indication of input status by the input strip or on the keyboard displays. Response time is approximately 10 msec. Does not consume an output position on the I/O rack.

Module Input (module located on I/O rack) - AC and DC input modules available. Typical DC response is 2-3 msec and DC modules can be wired for sinking or sourcing signals. An LED (in or next to module) shows input status.

Input modules are easier to interface electrically, and provide LED indication of their on/off status. It can be advantageous not to use the logic terminal input by operating Group 1 in Mode 0 to control outputs not associated with input signals.

Note: Once programmed in a channel, this function will be present in that channel in all programs.

Output Grouping and Modes I/O Configuration Examples

Example #1: On a nine I/O 5X24, establish three groups

of outputs with four outputs in Group 1, two outputs in Group 2 and the remaining outputs (1) in Group 3. Group 2 and Group 3 both have a photo eye input associated with them and will operate in Mode 4.

The “3” in the PGM display represents the number of groups, the CHN display is the group number and the POS display shows the number of outputs in the corresponding group. (p. 4-7 illustrates FCN 8 programming).

Mode Introduction - Mode 0 Operation

Introduction to Modes

The use of modes allows PS-5XX4 controls to perform output logic which goes beyond simple cam outputs. There are five different modes (modes 0-4) which can be assigned to output groups. Each mode has unique operating characteristic which can be matched to the logic requirements of the corresponding groups. In many situations, using mode logic can eliminate the need for external logic (PLC or discrete circuits) in series with the PS-5XX4 outputs.

Each output group can be operated in the most appropriate mode, regardless of which mode(s) other groups are operating in. In many applications, more than one mode will be used to satisfy the control requirements of different machine sections. Following are brief descriptions of the modes:

Mode 0 - Outputs always enabled, like a simple cam switch, and the group position can only be adjusted manually through the keyboard. This mode is appropriate for output signals which must occur at the exact same position in every machine cycle.

Mode 1 - Resets group position to zero when the group enable input signal occurs. Outputs are always active. This mode is appropriate for phasing output groups from sensors or other devices which signal a mechanical reference position. Can also be used in applications where some machine sections run multiple cycles per resolver revolution.

Mode 2 - Disables group outputs until the group enable input signal occurs. When the input occurs, the group position immediately resets to the preset value and the outputs are allowed to cycle during the next machine cycle. This mode is useful for applications where products may not be evenly spaced and the group outputs must only cycle when a product has been sensed.

Mode 3 - Only enables outputs to cycle when group enable input is on. If the input is off, all of the outputs in the corresponding group will be off, regardless of position. Use this mode where the presence of a maintained signal indicates that it is OK for the group outputs to be active.

Mode 4 - Enables outputs to cycle if the group enable input signal turned on during a designated portion (window) of the cycle. Outputs will be disabled at the end of the cycle until the input signal turns on again during the window portion of another cycle. Use this mode to check presence and correct position of a product before enabling the output group for this machine cycle.

Example Applications that Use Modes

Web Converting Machines - Disposable diapers, medical

pads, office folders, etc. Phase relationships between machine sections can be adjusted manually using Mode 0 or automatically using Mode 1.

Cartoners / Case Packers - Vacuum, material handling, loading, and other functions are usually controlled in Mode

0. Gluing functions are typically controlled in Mode 4 to prevent glue from being dispensed when containers are not present.

Vertical Form/Fill/Seal Machines - Package material handling output functions are controlled in Mode 0, while pump or fill functions are handled in Mode 1 to automatically correct for mechanical phase changes made between these two sections of the machine (this allows one resolver to do a job that would otherwise require two resolvers).

Machines with Multiple Cycle Ratios - Some machines have different sections that run at different cycle ratios per overall machine cycle. For example, one portion of a machine may complete several cycles while another section makes only one cycle. By using Mode 1 or 2, it is possible to have some output groups cycling multiple times while other groups cycle only once.

Details of Mode 0 - Standard Cam Operation

An output group operating in Mode 0 will turn on the outputs every time the group position is within the programmed position setpoints. The outputs are always enabled. No input logic is used with Mode 0; the corresponding input is ignored. The position of the output group can only be adjusted through the keyboard using FCN 2. The group position information will be stored in permanent memory and proper group position will be restored each time the control is powered on.

Use Mode 0 whenever the corresponding outputs are required to operate during every cycle of the machine.

How to Program Mode 0 Operation

1. Program FCN 8 and 9 to correctly establish the output grouping and modes required for this machine application (insure that Mode 0 is selected for this group).

2. Check that this group has the desired position relationship to the machine position. Program FCN 2 to adjust it.

3. Program output setpoints to cycle the outputs on and off at the desired output group positions.

No other programming is required for Mode 0. Note: Mode 0 logic never disables the outputs, however,

Motion ANDing (FCN 7) can disable outputs that are operating in Mode 0.

Appendix A-3

Mode 1 Operation

Details of Mode 1 -

Alter Position from Input Signal

An output group operating in Mode 1 will have its outputs enabled at all times. What makes it different from simple cam logic is its ability to alter its position relationship to the machine based on an external input signal. The start (leading edge) of an input signal will instantly cause the group’s position to be reset to zero. The outputs will immediately update in accordance with the zero position and continue cycling from that point.

The input signal acts in a momentary manner, therefore it doesn’t matter how long the input remains energized. The reset to zero operation will occur when the leading edge of the input signal occurs. However, once the reset occurs, the control disarms the input and ignores it until it becomes re-armed. A programmed window determines where the input will become re-armed (re-arming the input is similar to cocking a gun; once it is re-armed it can fire at any position).

The input window is programmed in the same manner that output pulses are programmed and is referenced to the corresponding group position. Channel 91 is the window for Group 1, Channel 92 for Group 2, and so on up to 98. The position where the window is programmed determines if the input is re-armed right away or ignored until a specified number of degrees of travel occur. The window can be reached from either direction of travel. Therefore, the on edge of the window determines how much forward travel is needed to reach the window, and the off edge determines how much reverse travel is needed.

How to Program Mode 1 Operation

1. Program FCN 8 and FCN 9 to correctly establish the output grouping and modes required for this machine application (insure that Mode 1 is selected for this group).

2. Program the input window (CHN 9X) to start where the group enable input should be re-armed when the machine is moving in a forward direction and to end where the input should be re-armed if the machine is moving in reverse. If the input should always be armed, program CHN 9X to start on 1 and end one increment before zero.

Note: The group input window (CHN 9X) and the group output position setpoints must be programmed individually for each of the controller programs used. Different programs can have different values as required.

If the output group position fails to reset when input signals occur, insure that an input window (CHN 9X) is programmed and that the input is wired to the control correctly.

The position reference that is established by input signals does not get stored in the control’s permanent memory. Therefore, when the control powers up, a Mode 1 group will assume the last offset programmed through FCN 2. On power up, the input is armed and the first signal received will cause the position to immediately reset to zero.

Example Application: Control sections of a machine that vary in phase relationship

This illustration shows a single PLuS control and resolver controlling three “Adjustable Phase" sections of a converting machine. The rotary position of the electrical output signals can be manually set/adjusted from the keyboard or automatically adjusted by sensors.

Each output group instantly resets it position when its input sensor energizes.

This keeps the electrical control signals properly synchronized to the mechanical devices in each section when phase adjustments are made. One resolver provides the position information needed for all sections of the machine, regardless of their phase relationship.

Note: All gear drives are 1:1 ratio.

Mode 1 Logic Flow Chart

The flow chart to the right details how Mode 1 operates. The control’s response to any set of conditions can be determined by stepping through the flow chart blocks using those conditions when decision blocks are encountered. The flow chart shows when the group enable input is armed and disarmed. Mode 1 logic never disables the outputs, however, Motion ANDing (FCN 7) can disable outputs that are operating in Mode 1.

Mode 1 Logic Flow Chart

How to Use the Flow Chart

To use the block diagram assume that the control is continuously processing the blocks at a very fast rate and is never stopped on any one block. The control will get stuck processing the same path of blocks repeatedly (loop) until a condition changes within one of the decision blocks in that loop which alters the path. Response to a condition change is almost instantaneous so the new conditions established in the next loop take affect quickly. Note that the logic path can only flow in the direction of the arrows, never against them.

Mode 2 Operation

Details of Mode 2 -

Alter Position and Enable Outputs

An output group operating in Mode 2 only has its outputs enabled after an input signal has occurred. The start (leading edge) of an input signal instantly causes the group’s position to be reset to zero. The outputs will immediately be enabled to cycle, and will stay enabled until the next input window is reached.

The input signal acts in a momentary manner. Therefore it doesn’t matter how long the input remains energized. The reset operation will occur when the leading edge of the input signal occurs. However, once the reset occurs, the control disarms the input and ignores it until it becomes rearmed. A programmed window determines where the input will become re-armed (re-arming the input is similar to cocking a gun - once it is re-armed it can fire at any position). The outputs are disabled when the next input window is reached.

The input window is programmed in the same manner as output pulses and is referenced to the corresponding group position. Channel 91 is the window for Group 1, Channel 92 for Group 2, and so on up to Channel 98. The position of the window determines where the outputs become disabled and where the control starts looking for the next input signal so the process can repeat. Note: If no window

is programmed, output will become active if input is activated and will remain active.

The position reference that is established by input signals does not get stored in the control’s permanent memory. However, it is not important in Mode 2 since the outputs will be disabled until an input signal occurs. On power up, the input is armed, the outputs are disabled and the first input signal received will cause the position to immediately reset to zero.

How to Program Mode 2 Operation

1. Program FCN 8 and FCN 9 to correctly establish the output grouping and modes required for this machine application (insure that Mode 2 is selected for this group).

2. Program the input window (CHN 9X) to start at 355 and end at 359 as initial values.

3. Manually crank or jog the machine through a cycle with a product present. After the reset occurs (sensor detects start of product), record the group position values where each of the group outputs needs to cycle on or off. Program these values into the corresponding outputs.

4. Program the input window (CHN 9X) to start before the next valid input signal leading edge will occur. The start of the input window must be after the latest output off position recorded in step 4 (the start of the window disables the outputs) and before the next input signal leading edge. Set the end of the input window to a position that is ahead of the earliest position where group outputs start cycling on.

If the output group fails to operate when the machine is run with product present, insure that the group input leading edge occurs after the first programmed window (CHN 9X) and that the input is wired to the control correctly.

The flow chart to the right details how Mode 2 operates.

Mode 2 Example Application

Example Application: Control different machine functions asynchronously, on demand

This illustration shows a PLµS control and one resolver “independently” controlling two glue heads at different locations on a conveyor. The spacing between parts being glued is random.

Each output group instantly resets its control position when its enable input energizes. The outputs in the group then become active for up to 359 degrees.

Random spacing between parts is automatically handled because each sensor causes the position of its output group to reset. This references the output signals to the leading edge of the part being glued. When parts are not present the outputs will be inactive.

Additional output groups can be controlling other machine functions in different “modes” as needed

Mode 3 Operation

Details of Mode 3 -

AND Outputs with Input Signal

An output group operating in Mode 3 will have the same characteristics as a group operating in Mode 0, except that the corresponding enable input must be on to enable the outputs in this group (acts like the input is in series with each output). When the input is on the outputs will be enabled, but as soon as the input turns off they will be disabled. When the group position is within an output’s setpoints, that output would turn on as soon as the input turned on, and would turn off as soon as the input turned off. Therefore, if the input changes state during the pulse, it is possible to only get a partial output pulse. As in Mode 0, position changes can only be made through FCN 2, and position information in maintained in the control's permanent memory.

Use Mode 3 if the group outputs can only be allowed to cycle when a maintained enable signal is present.

How to Program Mode 3 Operation

1. Program FCN 8 and 9 to correctly establish the output grouping and modes required for this machine application (insure that Mode 3 is selected for this group).

2. Check that this group has the desired position relationship to the machine position. Program FCN 2 to adjust it.

3. Program output setpoints to cycle the outputs on and off at the desired output group positions.

No other programming is required for Mode 3 to operate. If an output group operating in Mode 3 fails to cycle its outputs, insure that the input signal is on and wired to the control correctly. Motion ANDing (FCN 7) can also prevent the outputs from cycling.

Example Application: Operate a machine function only while a related input signal is maintained

In this illustration the glue head will only be allowed to operate while the photo eye sees the top edge of a box. Boxes that are crushed or not properly erected will cause the glue function to be aborted when the eye loses sight of the top edge.

Mode 3 operation eliminates the need to hard wire photo eyes and other sensors in series with the corresponding controller outputs. Instead, the sensor input is “ANDed” with the selected output(s) through Mode 3 programming.

Additional output groups can be controlling other machine functions in different “modes” as needed

Mode 4 Operation

Details of Mode 4 -

Input Signal Required for Output Cycle

An output group operating in Mode 4 only has its outputs enabled after an input signal has occurred within a specified window of the machine cycle. The start (leading edge) of the input signal will cause the group’s outputs to be enabled to cycle, and they will stay enabled until the next input window is reached. The group position is not altered by the input signal.

The input signal acts in a momentary manner, therefore, it doesn’t matter how long the input remains energized. However, the leading edge of the input must occur within the programmed input window. The outputs will then become enabled and will remain enabled until the start of the next input window is reached.

The input window is programmed in the same manner as output pulses and is referenced to the corresponding group position. Channel 91 is the window for Group 1, Channel 92 for Group 2 and so on up to Channel 98. The starting position of the window determines where the outputs become disabled and where the control starts looking for the next input signal so the process can repeat.

The position reference for the group is not affected by the input signal. Therefore the group position maintains a constant relationship with the machine position. On power up, the group position will be based on the last position reference that was determined by FCN 2 programming. This reference can only be altered through FCN 2 programming from the keyboard.

Example Application: Operate machine function(s) only if sensor detects part in correct position

How to Program Mode 4 Operation

1. Program FCN 8 and FCN 9 to correctly establish the output grouping and modes required for this machine application (insure that Mode 4 is selected for this group).

2. Check that this group has the desired position relationship to the machine position. Program FCN 2 to adjust it.

3. Record the starting position value where the sensor first detects the product as it passes by (leading edge of input).

4. Record the earliest and latest positions where one or more outputs in this group must be on.

5. Program the input window (CHN 9X) to start before the leading edge position of the input signal (recorded in step 3) and end after the leading edge position. The start of the input window must be after the latest output position recorded in step 4 (the start of window disables the outputs) and before the leading edge of the input signal occurs. Set the end of the input window to the latest position in the cycle that a valid input signal leading edge could occur.

If the output group fails to operate when the machine is run with product present, insure that the group input leading edge occurs within the programmed window (CHN 9X) and that the input is wired to the control correctly.

Note: Once programmed in a channel, this function will be present in that channel in all programs.

In this illustration the punch will operate if the enable sensor detects the leading edge of the part at the correct position in the machine cycle. The presence and correct position of parts is verified by the enable sensor before the group output(s) are activated. The control position remains in sync with the machine position.

The output(s) in the group become active for the remainder of the machine cycle if the enable sensor signal occurs within a specified position in the machine cycle. Sensor signals that occur outside of the programmed "enable input window" will be ignored.

This mode of operation is appropriate for flight bar conveyors, rotary index tables and similar types of machinery.

Additional output groups can be controlling other machine functions in different “modes” as needed

Mode 4 Logic Flow Chart

The flow chart to the right details how Mode 4 operates. The control’s response to any set of conditions can be determined by stepping through the flow chart blocks using those conditions when decision blocks are encountered. The flow chart determines when the outputs are enabled and disabled by Mode 4 logic. Note: Motion ANDing (FCN

7) can also disable outputs.

Error Messages

Two types of errors may be displayed: Programming Programming error messages indicate that a programming attempt was invalid. Except for error message

“E0 EErr”, the control will continue to operate the outputs normally during programming errors. Programming error messages will be flagged in the following list with this symbol:

System System errors occur when conditions are detected that can cause unreliable operation. All outputs will

be disabled when system error messages occur. The cause of a system error must be determined

and corrected before reliable controller operation can be guaranteed. Contact the Electro Cam factory for assistance whenever system error messages repeat. System errors will be flagged in the following

list with this symbol:

CrASH

E0EErr

E0FAtL

Watchdog Timer Fault The Watchdog Timer has timed out, indicating that the controller is not properly executing its program. All outputs will be disabled during this error condition. This problem can be caused by severe electrical noise or hardware failure within the control.

Solution: Remove and restore AC input power to the controller. If the control immediately repeats the CrASH error condition each time it is powered up, hardware within the control is damaged. Call Electro Cam for return authorization and further advice.

If CrASH errors occur at intermittent intervals, they are apparently being caused by excessive electrical noise. Check wiring for proper shielding and grounding.

EEPROM Programming Error

The Checksum associated with the Function programming (controller’s global configuration) was found to be incorrect.

Solution: Press the CLR/CLE key to clear the flashing error message. All configuration programming (Functions) will be returned to the factory defaults, but setpoint information will remain unchanged. It will be necessary to re-program all functions that were altered from the factory defaults. (See page A-16, Alt Fcn 7000 for a listing of factory defaults.)

Memory Fault A problem with random access memory has been detected and the unit cannot function properly. Memory circuitry in the controller is not functioning properly.

Solution: Control must be returned to factory for repair. Call Electro Cam first for return authorization and further information.

E1 CHEC

E1 OLAP

E2run

Checksum Error (Checked on Power-up) The stored checksum value did not match the memory contents when checked on power-up. This problem can be caused by severe electrical noise during power-up or hardware failure within the control.

Solution: Remove and restore AC input power to the controller. If the control immediately repeats the E1 CHEC error condition each time it is powered up, hardware within the control is damaged. Call Electro Cam for further information.

Pulse Overlap

The output pulse that was just created or adjusted overlaps or touches another pulse that already exists in the same output channel. It was therefore not entered. Also, if one edge of a pulse is moved until it is equal to the other edge, an “E1 OLAP” error will occur.

Solution: Press the CLR/CLE key to clear the flashing error message. Use VIEW keys to review the setpoints that are already programmed on this channel to determine the cause of the overlap condition.

Item Can Not be Programmed While Running

While the encoder/resolver was turning, an attempt was made to change a programmed item that cannot be changed unless the transducer is stationary. Items which cannot be changed while in motion are: Direction of Rotation (FCN 0 - CL/CCL), Scale Factor (FCN 0 - SF), Output Grouping (FCN 8), and Enable Inputs and Modes (FCN 9).

Solution: Press the CLR/CLE key to clear the flashing error message. Stop the machine (transducer) while making the program change.

E58888

E6-379

E7-dEF

Programming Not Enabled A programming change was attempted when the corresponding level of programming access was not enabled. There are three levels of programming access. See page 4-1 for details.

Solution: Press the CLR/CLE key to clear the flashing error message. Enable the appropriate level of programming access and make the necessary changes.

Number Out of Range A number was entered that exceeds allowable limits for the item being programmed. Some examples are: a setpoint value that exceeds the scale factor; a channel number that exceeds the number of output channels; an active program number that exceeds 8; etc.

Solution: Press the CLR/CLE key to clear the flashing error message. Enter a valid value for the item being programmed.

Illegal Setpoint Value (encoder controls only)

A setpoint value with a 3, 7, or 9 in the units digit was entered into a PS-50XX (encoder based) controller. Degree positions with 3, 7, or 9 in the units digit are skipped except for the following positions: 89, 179, 269 and 359.

Solution: Press the CLR/CLE key to clear the flashing error message. Enter a value that does not have 3, 7, or 9 in the units digit.

Too Many Enable Inputs (5xx4 models only) An attempt was made to program more Enable Inputs (FCN 9) than there are Output Groups (FCN 8).

Solution: Press the CLR/CLE key to clear the flashing error message. Review Functions 8 and 9 to determine the cause of the problem.

E9tdE

E10-rES

Too Many Timed Outputs

An attempt was made to program more timed outputs than are allowed. The number of timed outputs depends on the number of outputs and the timing base selected (page 4-5.)

8, 9, and 16 output systems: 8 - 1 mSec timed outputs

4 - .5 mSec timed outputs

24 and 48 output systems: 4 - 1 mSec timed outputs

(No .5 mSec time base)

Solution: Press the CLR/CLE key to clear the flashing error message. Resolver Fault

No resolver is connected to the controller, or one of the connections to the resolver has experienced an intermittent or maintained open circuit condition.

Solution: Press the CLR/CLE key to clear the flashing error message, restore output operation and verify that the control is responding correctly to resolver position changes. It is important to determine the cause of the problem to avoid its occurrence in the future. Check that the resolver cable connector on the back of the control is plugged in all the way and that the seven wires connected to the screw terminals are properly secured. Also check that the resolver connecter is properly secured to the resolver.

The following resistance values can be checked at the control end of the resolver cable when it is unplugged from the controller and plugged into the resolver. Measure the resistance between wire pairs. Measurements will fall into one of two categories depending on age of resolver.

Wire Pair Resistance or Resistance

White/Black 15 to 25 Ohms 60 to 85 Ohms Red/Black 20 to 40 Ohms 135 to 185 Ohms Green/Black 20 to 40 Ohms 135 to 185 Ohms

E11-ScE

(Continued next page)

Too Many Speed Compensated Channels (48 output systems only) An attempt was made to program more that 16 speed compensated outputs into a 48 output controller.

Solution: Press the CLR/CLE key to clear the flashing error message.

Appendix A-13

Error Messages (Continued)

FAtL int

LinEFAiL

Pb Stuc

StoP

Internal Run Error

There is a hardware problem with internal circuitry. All outputs will be disabled.

Solution: Call Electro Cam for return authorization and further information. Input Power Voltage Low

The input power to the controller dropped below normal operating voltage, causing the controller to stop functioning. Check that input supply voltage to controller is within specified operating range (pg.A-18).

Solution: Control will come out of “LinEFAiL” condition when input voltage rises to normal range. Push Button Stuck

If one of the keyboard keys is on when the unit powers up, this message will be displayed. It can indicate that a key is shorted and always on.

Solution: If “Pb Stuc” error message remains or occurs frequently on power up, call Electro Cam for further information.

Controller in Stop Mode When Serial Communication Command 6 (COM_STOP) is sent to the control, it goes into an idle mode

and displays the message “StoP”. The Stop mode allows serial information to be written directly into the control's EEPROM memory, thus allowing rapid loading of program information. The PLuSNET DLOAD (down load) program first puts the control in the Stop mode before sending information. When the loading process is complete it returns the control to the run mode. If the loading process is interrupted, the control might accidentally be left in the Stop mode.

Solution: Power cycle the control to restore normal operation.

Communication Port Pin Out and RS-232 Cables

PS-5000 Series DB-9 Connector (Female)

RS-485 can be used for “Multi-Drop” communication (more than one controller connected simultaneously). RS-232 can be connected to only one control at a time.

For standard 485 communications, pin 4 must be connected to pin 6. If pins 4 and 6 are not connected, controller will communicate with remote display, which will interfere with standard 485 communications.

The remote display receives data from the PLµS control via RS-485 serial communication. NOTE: Prior to date code

9740, the “-E” and “-C” options were required for communications. The display will show either the

controller's present rotary position or RPM as follows:

P 3 5 9 (example of position 359 shown by remote display) r 2 5 0 (example of 250 RPM shown by remote display)

The toggle RPM (“tr”) value programmed in FCN 0 determines the speed at which the display switches from showing position to RPM. At speeds below the toggle RPM value, position will be shown. At speeds equal to or above toggle RPM, the current RPM value will be displayed. It is not necessary for the control's display default (“dd”) to be set to auto; the display will automatically switch between position and RPM at the toggle RPM value, regardless of what the control's display is showing. The value of RPM update (“ru”) will determine how many times per second the display updates RPM.

To display position at all times, set the toggle RPM to a number that is higher than the maximum speed of the machine. To display RPM at all times set the toggle RPM to zero.

Note: A jumper between term 4 & 6 on the PLµS comm port will disable display data to allow normal serial communication.

Controller / Display Setup

Setup these FCN 0 items in the PLµS control as follows: cS = 9600 9600 baud selected for communication speed.

This is the fastest speed at which the display will operate, and is the factory default speed for the controller.

ct = 485 RS-485 format selected for serial port. Display

data will not be transmitted by the controller when in the RS-232 mode.

tr = ? Select the RPM value where display switches

from showing position to RPM

All of the programmable items in the display will be correctly set at Electro Cam before the display is shipped. This information is stored in permanent memory in the display and should never have to be programmed. However, if the display does not operate when connected to the control, check for correct display settings as follows:

1. Press SW1 & SW2 simultaneously until the message “b_rate” is displayed for one second. The current baud rate will appear.

2. If the current baud rate is 9600, go to Step 3. Otherwise, press SW3 until 9600 is displayed.

3. Press SW1 to store the 9600 baud rate and return to normal operation.
