2.3 Detailed Product Descriptions

2.3.1 QX751 Base

a. Features

The QX751 combines several desirable functions in one compact package. Each unit is a highly integrated operator interface and controller with expandable I/O and networking capabilities have standard features consisting of the following:

• Color Touch, resistive screen (TFT)

• 24 VDC powered

• RS-232 / RS-485 Serial Ports

• Integrated Bezel

• Real-Time Clock

• Flash Memory

• Removable Media memory for easy field upgrades

• System Key and Configurable Function Keys

• Ethernet (10/100 MHz)

• Back Pack Expansion Connectors (refer G required)

b. CsCAN Network

When used with a Back Pack option, the QX751 has the feature of CsCAN peer-to-peer networking. (CsCAN is pronounced “see-scan”). CAN-based network hardware is used in the controllers because of CAN’s automatic error detection, ease of configuration, low-cost of design and implementation and ability to operate in harsh environments. Networking abilities are built-in to the QX751 and require no external or additional modules.

Figure 2.3 – Pass Through Function (Available in CsCAN Networks Only)

The QX751 features the ability to pass through programming commands. When attached to an QX751 serial port, a programming package (i.e. Cscape) can access other QX751 units or any other QX/RCS unit connected to a CsCAN network by passing the programming command through the serial port to the network port. One Cscape package (connected to one QX751 unit) can program all QX751 or other QX/RCS units on the CsCAN network. When several QX751 models are networked together to achieve a specific purpose, the system acts like a large parallel-processing controller.

August 20, 2009 Page 13 of 96 ECN # 979

CH.2 MAN0890-02-EN

c. Cscape Software

QX751 hardware is programmed with a Windows-based PC application called Cscape (HE500OSW232). Cscape (pronounced “see-scape”) stands for Control Station Central Application Programming Environment. Provided there is one serial connection to one node on the network (i.e., CsCAN Network), the operator has control over the entire system. The operator can upload, download, monitor and debug to any node on the network.

This application can be used to program, configure, monitor and debug all aspects of the OCS. It is used for programming QX751 OCS ladder logic, programming user displays for the QX751 OCS, configuring the network for global digital and analog data, setting system-wide security and monitoring controllers in the system.

2.3.2 Back Pack I/O Interface (BP41, BP43)

The Back Pack I/O Interface (BP) adds comprehensive I/O functionality to the QX751. The BP uses a

Fiber Optic Extension System (FOX) to extend a high-speed QX751 backplane in a CsCAN

network and enables SmartStack I/O Modules to be mounted several meters from the QX751. The FOX significantly increases the number of SmartStack I/O modules supported by one QX751. Remote SmartStix I/O can also be used. When using BP43, an additional High Speed I/O function is provided.

MAN0890-02-EN CH.3

b. Grounding

Warning: Be sure to meet the ground requirements of the panel manufacturer and also meet

applicable electrical codes and standards.

Panel box

: The panel box needs to be properly connected to earth ground to provide a good common

ground reference. Panel door

: Tie a low impedance ground strap between the panel box and the panel door to ensure that

they have the same ground reference.

c. Temperature / Ventilation Ensure that the panel layout design allows for adequate ventilation and maintains the specified ambient

temperature range. Consider the impact on the design of the panel layout if operating at the extreme ends of the ambient temperature range. For example, if it is determined that a cooling device is required, allow adequate space and clearances for the device in the panel box or on the p anel door.

d. Orientation When panel-mounted, there are no orientation restrictions on the QX751/BP. However, the orientation

shown in

Figure 3.2 provides for optimum readability of the screen and ease of use of the keypad. e. Noise Consider the impact on the panel layout design and clearance requirements if noise suppression devices

are needed. Be sure to maintain an adequate distance between the QX751/BP and noisy devices such as relays, motor starters, etc.

f. Shock and Vibration The QX751/BP have been designed to operate in typical industrial environments that can inflict some

shock and vibration on the unit. For applications that can inflict excessive shock and vibration, use proper dampening techniques or relocate the QX751/BP to a location that minimizes shock and / or vibration.

4.2 Grounding Definition Ground: The term Ground is defined as a conductive connection between a circuit or piece of

equipment and the earth. Grounds are fundamentally used to protect an application from harmful interference causing either physical damage such as by lightning or voltage transients or from circuit disruption often caused by radio frequency (RF) interference.

4.3 Ground Specifications

Ideally, a ground resistance measurement from equipment to earth ground is 0 ohms. In reality it typically is higher. The U.S. National Electrical Code (NEC) states the resistance to ground shall not ohms. Horner APG recommends less than 15 ohms resistance from our equipment to ground. Resistance greater than 25 ohms can cause undesirable or harmful interference to the device.

4.4 How to Test for Good Ground

In order to test ground resistance, a Ground Resistance Tester must be used. A typical Ground Resistance Meter Kit contains a meter, two or three wire leads, and two ground rods. Instructions are supplied for either a two-point or three-point ground test. connection test.

CHAPTER 5: CAN COMMUNICATIONS

Note: See the latest edition of Horner’s CAN Networks Manual (MAN0799) by referring to our website

http://www.heapg.com).

(

5.1 Overview

QX751 models with either a BP41 or BP43 attached provide a CAN networking port, which is implemented with a 5-pin connector, labeled CsCAN.

Like the MJ1 serial port, the CsCAN port can be used for QX751/BPxx programming by connecting it to the CAN port of a PC running Cscape. The CsCAN port also allows the QX751/BPxx to exchange global data with other OCS/RCS controllers and to access remote Network I/O devices (SmartStix Modules).

5.2 Port Description

The QX751/BPxx CsCAN port implements the ISO 11898-2 physical layer and the CAN 2.0A data link layer standards. Also, since the CsCAN port is powered by an internal isolated power supply, external CAN power is not required.

5.3 Wiring

This section shows how the CsCAN port pins are assigned.

Figure 5.1 – CsCAN Port Connector

Table 5.1 – CsCAN Port Pin Assignments

Pin Signal Signal Description Direction

1 V- CAN Ground 2 CN_L CAN Data Low In/Out 3 SHLD Shield Ground 4 CN_H CAN Data High In/Out 5 NC No Connect

Note: The V+ connection is not

required on the QX751BPxx. The QX751BPxx network port is self-powered. However, supporting devices can require this connection, and this pin can be used to land the extra wire required for those devices.

CH. 5 MAN0890-02-EN

5.4 Cscape Programming via CAN

The CsCAN port supports CsCAN Programming Protocol. If a PC has a CAN interface installed (via PCI card or USB), and the PC CAN port is connected to the QX751/BPxx CsCAN port, Cscape can access the QX751/BPxx for programming and monitoring.

In addition, the QX751/BPxx supports single-point-programming of all QX751/BPxx and other OCS/RCS devices that are connected to a CAN network. If the PC COM port is connected to the QX751/BPxx MJ1 serial port, the QX751/BPxx can act as a pass-through gateway allowing Cscape to access all QX751/BPxx and OCS/RCS devices that are attached to the CAN network.

5.5 Ladder-Controlled CAN Communication

Using Put and Get Network Words function blocks, the CsCAN port can exchange digital and analog global data with other QX751/BPxx or OCS/RCS devices (nodes) attached to the CAN network.

In addition, Put and Get Network Heartbeat function blocks allow nodes on the CAN network to regularly announce their presence and to detect the presence (or absence) of other nodes on the network.

5.6 Using CAN for I/O Expansion (Network I/O)

Connecting Network I/O devices (SmartStix Modules) to the QX751/BPxx CsCAN port, allows the QX751/BPxx I/O to be economically expanded and distributed. A variety of SmartStix Modules are available for this purpose.

CHAPTER 6: COMPACTFLASHTM

6.1 General

Chapter Six provides an overview of the CompactFlash Software.

Note: For detailed information regarding Removable Media (RM) function blocks and parameters,

refer to the help file in Cscape Software.

6.2 Compact Flash Overview

All QX751 OCS models provide a slot for a CompactFlash memory card. The Removable Media manager is a graphical object that allows viewing the filenames, size and dates of files and directories on a CompactFlash card. The operator can optionally change directories, delete files and format a new flash card. This object also supplies status information such as color change on card OK, card full and card missing status. The file view includes total card capacity and remaining free space.

6.2.1 Accessing Files with an QX751 OCS

a. Insert a CompactFlash card into the QX751 OCS CompactFlash slot. b. If not formatted, use the Removable Media Manager object to format the card. c. The QX751 OCS ladder application program can read and write to the CompactFlash

card. The file is saved as a .csv file, which is compatible with several PC applications such as Excel.

6.2.2 Accessing Files with a PC

a. Insert or connect the CompactFlash memory card to the PC according to the

manufacturer’s instructions.

b. The PC typically sees the CompactFlash card as a removable storage device like a small

solid-state hard drive. Files can be read from and written to the CompactFlash card in the same way they are read/written to a standard hard disk. The only file format that can be read or written by an OCS application is a .csv (comma separated value) file.

6.3 Removable Media (RM) Function Blocks in Cscape Note: For detailed information regarding RM function blocks and parameters, refer to the help file

in Cscape Software.

The following RM functional blocks are available in Cscape Software. a. Read RM csv

This function allows reading of a comma-separated value file from the CompactFlash interface into the controller register space. The file format of the value file uses commas to separate values.

b. Write RM csv

This function allows writing of a comma-separated value file to the CompactFlash interface from the controller register space. The file format of the value file uses commas to separate values.

August 20, 2009 Page 25 of 96 ECN # 979

CH. 6 MAN0890-02-EN

c. Rename RM csv

This function allows renaming a file on the CompactFlash card. The data in the file is not changed.

d. Delete RM csv

This function allows deleting a file on the CompactFlash card.

6.4 Configuring Removable Media Manager graphical object in Cscape

The Removable Media Manager is a graphical object that allows viewing filenames, size and dates of files, and directories on a CompactFlash card. The operator can optionally change directories, delete files, and format new flash cards. This object also supplies status information such as Color change on card OK, Card full, and Card missing status. For additional information, refer to Cscape Help File; select Cscape Reference Manual, and then select Using Graphics Editor.

6.5 Filenames Used with the Removable Media (RM) Function Blocks

The RM function blocks support the flash with a DOS/Windows standard FAT-16 file system. All names must be limited to the “eight dot three” format where the filename contains eight characters a period then a three-character extension.

The entire filename including any path must be less than or equal to 147 characters. When creating filenames and directories it is sometimes desirable to include parts of the current date or

time. There are six special symbols that can be entered into a filename that are replaced by the QX751 with current time and date information.

Table 6.1 – Filename Special Symbols

Symbol Description Example

$Y $M $D $h $m $s

Substitutes the current month with a 2 digit code March = 03

Substitutes the current 2 digit year 2004 = 04

Substitutes the current day 22

= 22

Substitutes the current hour in 24 hour format 4 pm = 16

Substitutes the current minute Substitutes the current minute

Note that all the symbols start with the dollar sign ($) character. Date symbols are in upper case, time symbols are in lower case.

The following are examples of the substituted time/date filenames: Current date and time: March 1, 2004 3:45:34 PM Filename: Data$M$D.csv = Data0301.csv Filename: Year$Y\Month$M\aa$D_$h.csv = Year04\Month03\aa01_15.csv Filename: Month_$M\Day_$D\$h_$m_$s.csv = Month_03\Day_01\15_45_34.csv

9.2 System Menu – Navigation and Editing

As mentioned above, pressing the front panel SYSTEM key starts the System Menu. Then, either press ESC to exit the System Menu, or use the

↓ and ↑ keys to select an item and press Enter to display the

item’s Sub-Menu. A Sub-Menu generally shows a list of System Settings and their values. After opening a Sub-Menu, if any

of its System Settings are editable, the first System Setting that can be edited is highlighted. If desired,

↓ and ↑ keys can be used to select a different System Setting to be edited.

the At this point, either press ESC to exit the Sub-Menu (returning to the Main Menu) or press Enter to edit

the highlighted System Setting. If Enter is pressed, the System Setting’s value will be highlighted, indicating that it is ready to be modified.

When modifying a System Setting’s value, use either the arrow keys (

←,→, ↓, ↑) or the numeric keys to

select a new value. The arrow keys are used to edit System Settings that have just a few possible values. Each time the

arrow key is pressed, a new possible value is displayed. When the desired value appears, press the Enter key to save it; otherwise, press the ESC key to cancel the edit.

The numeric keys are normally used to enter numeric System Settings. In addition, to edit a single numeric digit, use the

← or → key to select the digit and then either press a numeric key or use ↓ or ↑ to

modify the digit. In any case, after entering the new desired value, press the Enter key to save it; otherwise, press the ESC key to cancel the edit.

If a directory name is highlighted, pressing Enter will switch to that directory showing its files and subdirectories. In a sub-directory, highlighting .. (dot dot) and pressing Enter will move up one directory.

Fail-Safe System

The Fail-Safe System Sub-Menu is a set of features that allow an application to continue running in the event of certain types of "soft" failures. These "soft" failures include:

• Battery power loss

• Battery-Backed Register RAM or Application Flash corruption due to, for example, an excessive

EMI event.

The fail-safe system can be accessed by going to the system menu of the controller. The menu “FailSafe System” has been added at the end of the main system menu for this.

Refer Chapter 14 for detailed explanation of Fail-Safe system.

Clone Unit

‘Clone Unit’ feature allows the user to “clone” the OCS of the exact same model. This feature “clones” application program and unit settings stored in Battery backed RAM of an OCS into the RM (refer Removable Media

Chapter 6 for details on using RM). It can then be used to clone a different OCS (exact

same model). This feature can be used for:

• Replacing an OCS by another unit of the same model.

• Duplicating or “clone” units without a PC.

Clone

Selecting “Clone Unit” menu will open the following menu screen:

Note: Free/Total – displays number of free and total bytes in Removable Media.

9.4 Touch screen calibration

The touch screen is calibrated at the factory and rarely needs modification. However, if actual touch locations do not appear to correspond with responding objects on the display, field adjustment is available. To access the field adjustable touch screen calibration dialog, press and hold both the SYS and F1 key for longer than 2 seconds with the QX751set to, Mode: Idle, and a dialog similar to figure 9.2 should appear. Thereafter, use a plastic tip stylus and follow the dialog instructions.

Note that special system keys may be locked out from user access. If the SYS-F1 combination does NOT respond, verify that the system menu’s Set Fkeys sub-menu’s parameter SYS_Fn is enabled. Be certain the system Mode is not set to Run as this will inhibit Calibration operation.

CHAPTER 10: USER INTERFACE

10.1 Overview

This chapter presents the user interface (or operator view) of the QX751 and some of the model specific characteristics of the QX751as compared to the rest of the OCS line. This chapter does NOT cover building screens or using the CSCAPE graphics editor. For instructions on creating screens and using the graphics editor, refer to the graphics editor help file.

The following aspects are discussed:

• Displaying and entering data

• Alpha-numeric data entry

• Navigating around screens

• Beeper acknowledgement

• Touch (slip) sensitivity

• Alarm log dialog

• Compact flash dialog

• Run and OK status

• Screen Saver

• Dimmer

10.2 Displaying and entering Data

Figure 10.1 – Example Screen

August 20, 2009 Page 51 of 96 ECN # 979

CH.10 MAN0890-02-EN

Multiple objects are provided for displaying data such as virtual panel lights, push buttons, numeric value displays, bar graphs, meters, graphs and animated bitmaps. On the QX, these graphical objects (through ladder manipulation of attribute bits) can change color, flash or change visibility to attract operator attention.

On objects that accept user input, the input is provided by touching the object or alternately changing an OCS register (i.e. Function key registers). Objects that allow input generally have a raised 3D appearance. An exception is the binary type objects, such as buttons, which are shown in a depressed 3D appearance when in the ON state. Objects that normally accept touch input may be disabled through program control (through ladder manipulation of an attribute bit). If an object is disabled, the object’s representation changes to a 2D appearance.

On objects that represent non-discrete information, more action may be required beyond that of simply touching the object. For example, the slider object requires the operator to touch and slide the control in the direction desired. Alternately, alpha-numeric entry objects invoke a pop-up alpha-numeric keypad for additional user input. The alpha-numeric keypad is discussed below.

Note that if the numeric entry object displays >>>>>>>, the value is too big to display in the field or is above the maximum for an editable field. Likewise, if the QX751numeric entry object displays <<<<<<< in a numeric field, the value is too small to display or is below the minimum for an editable field.

10.3 Alpha-numeric keypad

To allow entry of a specific number or text, several of the input objects invoke a pop-up alpha-numeric keypad when the object is touched. An example of the alpha-numeric keypad invoked from a numeric input object is shown in Figure 10.2. Once invoked, the operator may touch the appropriate keys to enter a specific value. When entering a value, the alpha-numeric keypad is in one of two modes [new-value or edit-value].

New-value mode Generally, when the alpha-numeric keypad is first invoked, it is placed in new-value mode. Initially, the

alpha-numeric keypad displays the current value with all the digits being hi-lighted. Once the first digit is entered, the current value is erased from the display and the new digit is placed in the first location. Thereafter, no digits are hi-lighted and new digits are added to the rightmost position while the other digits are shifted left.

Edit-value mode

Edit-value mode may be entered from the initial new-value mode by pressing either the left or right arrow key before any digit key is pressed. The result will be a single character hi-lighted. The user may then either touch a key to change the digit at the selected position or the up and down arrows may be used to add or subtract (respectively) from the selected digit. The user may then use the left or right arrow keys to select a new position.

August 20, 2009 Page 52 of 96 ECN # 979

MAN0890-02-EN CH. 10

Figure 10.2 – Alpha-numeric Keypad

Once the desired value is entered, the Enter key moves that value into the object (and the corresponding OCS register) and the alpha-numeric keypad disappears. Alternately, pressing the ESC key any time before the Enter key cancels the operation, leaves the objects current value unchanged, and the alphanumeric keypad disappears.

Note: Each numeric entry object has a configured minimum and maximum value. If the operator enters a value outside of the configured range, the new value is ignored when Enter is pressed and the current object value is NOT changed.

Since the alpha-numeric keypad services several different graphical objects, certain keys on the alphanumeric keypad may be disabled (grayed) when the keypad is invoked for certain obje cts. Th e following describes the alpha-numeric keypad variation based on object.

Numeric Object

When editing a numeric value, the [+/-] or the [.] key are disabled (grayed) if the object is NOT configured for floating-point value or a signed value.

Password Object

When editing a password value, the arrow keys, [+/-], and the [.] keys are disabled. Additionally, overwrite mode is disabled. When entering digits, the pop-up keypad hides the value by displaying ‘*’ alternately for each digit.

August 20, 2009 Page 53 of 96 ECN # 979

CH.10 MAN0890-02-EN

ASCII Object

When editing an ASCII value, each press of the same key generates a different value. For example, the [1 _QZ] key generates the following sequence:

The digit keys (except zero) sequence the corresponding 3 alphabetical characters first in upper case followed by the same 3 characters in lower case followed by the corresponding numeric digit. Thereafter, continued presses of the same key repeat the sequence.

The [+/-] key generates the following mathematical character sequence: +, -, *, /, =, (, ), <repeat sequence> The [.] key generates the following punctuation character sequence: ., ?, :, ;, ,,’ ,”, $, <repeat sequence> Once the desired alpha-numeric character is obtained, use the left or right arrow to select a new position.

Alternately, pressing a different key moves to the next position.

Text Table Object

When editing a Text Table Object, all the keys accept the Up and Down arrow keys are grayed and disabled. The next text selection is made by pressing either the Up or Down arrow.

Time/Date Object

When editing a Time/Date Table Object, all the keys except the Up, Down, Left and Right arrow keys are grayed and disabled. The specific field (i.e. hour or minutes) is selected using the Left and Right arrows. The value in the selected field is changed by pressing either the Up or Down arrow.

10.4 Screen Navigation

To allow the operator to change screens, a screen jump object is generally used. This object may be visually represented as a 3-D button (responding to touch) or remain invisible and logically tied to an OCS register. An optional system ICON may be configured for display along with the legend, which aids in identifying the object as one that causes a screen change (shown below in figure 10.3)

Figure 10.3- Screen Jump Object (configured for a specific screen)

The QX751had the ability to store up to 8 screen jumps and then transverse back through those screens when the desired operation is complete (useful for virtual menus). On OCS models that contain a front panel ESC key, each press of the ESC key transverses back one screen; however, since the QX751does NOT have an ESC key on the front panel an alternate method is used. Screen jump objects on a

August 20, 2009 Page 54 of 96 ECN # 979

MAN0890-02-EN CH. 10

QX751may be configured to simulate an ESC key. Typically, screen jump objects simulating an ESC key are labeled Back or Previous to indicate to the operator that it is possible to transverse back to a previous screen.

Figure 10.4 – Screen Jump Object (configured to return to previous screen)

Note that changing the current displayed screen though use of a display coil in ladder logic clears the screen jump queue.

10.5 Beeper Acknowledgement

The QX751contains an internal beeper that provides an audible acknowledgment when an operator touches a graphic object that accepts touch input. When the graphical object is enabled, a short 5mSec tone is emitted. When the graphical object is disabled, a longer 100mSec tone is emitted to enounce that graphical object is not currently accepting the touch input.

If beep acknowledgement is not desired, the beeper function can be disabled from the system menu.

10.6 Touch (Slip) Sensitivity

Touch slip sensitivity is preset to meet most applications; however, adjustment is available to reduce the sensitivity for touch release. That is, once a graphical object (button) is touched and held by a finger, the default touch slip sensitivity allows for a slight slip of the finger on the graphical object before the QX751assumes touch been released (equates to approximately a quarter inch of movement with a stylus).

In some applications (such as jog buttons) where the operator is pushing a button for a period of time, the amount of slip while holding a button pressed may exceed the default sensitivity. To increase the amount of tolerable slip and prevent false releases of the button, the QX751allows adjustment of the allowable slide up to 5x the default value.

To enable the touch (slip) sensitivity, first an OCS data register must be allocated through the Graphics editor Configuration menu for Display Settings. Once a Touch Sensitivity register is assigned, that register may be modified (range = 1 to 5) to the desired slide amount. If a value outside the valid range is entered in the touch sensitivity register, it is ignored and the last valid value is used.

CH.10 MAN0890-02-EN

10.7 Alarms Alarm presentation to the operator is highly configurable and beyond the scope of this document to

describe fully. For more information refer to the graphics editor help file. This section presents a typical configuration thereby providing an introductory description on what the operator should expect.

The alarm object is generally used to enunciate alarms to the operator. While the display characteristic s of this object is configurable, it is generally displayed as a button that changes colors to indicate the highest state of the alarm(s) in the alarm group it is monitoring. The following indicates the priority of the alarm states and the default colors associated with these states.

• Highest (Red) - Unacknowledged Alarms Exist

• - (Yellow) - Acknowledged Alarms Exist

• Lowest (Green) - No Alarms Exist

Figure 10.5 – Alarm Object

To view, acknowledge and/or clear alarms, the operator must access the alarm viewer. This is accomplished by touching an (enabled) alarm object. When accessed, the alarm viewer is displayed as pop-up alarm viewer dialog similar to that shown in Figure 10.6.

MAN0890-02-EN CH. 10

The currently selected entry is indicated by a yellow highlight which can be moved up or down by touching the arrow buttons or by directly touching an entry. If more entries exist than can fit on the page, a scroll bar is displayed on the right side that also indicates the current relative position.

The current state of the displayed alarm is indicated by its color and optionally by an abbreviated indicator after the date/time stamp (ALM, ACK, RTN). The operator can acknowledge an alarm by selecting it from the list and touching the ACK button. The operator can also clear an alarm if that function is enabled in the alarm object. If not enabled, the Clear buttons are grayed and do not respond to touch. Once view operations are complete, simply touch the Esc button to remove the pop-up alarm viewer.

Note that OCS registers %SR181 and %SR182 are available for ladder use, which indicate presence of unacknowledged or acknowledged alarm (respectively). The screen design er may implement these registers to switch screens or active the beeper to attract the operator’s attention.

10.8 Removable Media (Compact Flash)

The removable media object is generally used inform the operator on the current state of the re movable media device and allow access to its file structure. The removable media object is displayed as a button that changes colors to indicate the current state of the removable media device. The following indicates the device states and the default colors associated with these states.

• Highest (Red) - Device Error

• - (Yellow) - Device Full (threshold adjustable)

• Lowest (Green) - Device OK

Figure 10.7 – Removable Media Object

To view and perform file operations, the operator must access the removable viewer. This is accomplished by either touching an (enabled) removable media object or through the system menu. When accessed, the removable media viewer is displayed as pop-up removable media dialog similar to that shown in Figure 10.8.

Note that the removable media object can be configured to open the removable media viewer at a certain directory complete with restrictions on transversing back up the file path. This may be used to restrict operator access to non-critical files.

CH.10 MAN0890-02-EN

Figure 10.8 – Removable media viewer

File operations are accomplished by pressing the appropriate button at the bottom of the removable media viewer. The configuration of the removable media object that invokes the removable media viewer defines what buttons are enabled and available to the user. A button is grayed and does not respond to touch if configured as disabled.

The (Enter) button (if enabled) performs certain operations based on the selected file’s type: .. - change display to parent directory

<DIR> - change display to child directory

bmp, jpeg - display bitmap (if compatible format)

pgm - load application (if compatible model and version) Alternately, the (enter) button can be configured to simply load the ASCII representation of the file path

(including the file name) to a group of OCS registers. That pathname can then be used by ladder for opening and manipulating that file.

Once view operations are complete, simply touch the Esc button to remove the pop-up removable media viewer.

If the removable media is used in an application, the removable media device requires changing by the operator, and the application is attempting to write to the removable media when it is removed, the screen designer should create objects that allow the operator to temporally halt access to the removable media. This prevents corruption to the file system if the removable media is removed during a file write sequence. The graphic objects should set OCS register %SR174.1 (when requesting the card be removed) and provide an indicator based on OCS register %SR174.2 (which indicates that it is safe to remove the removable media).

10.9 OK and Run Status

Since the QX751does not provide external LEDs for the Ok and Run status of the configuration and ladder logic engine (respectfully), an optional pop-up may be enabled to warn the user that one of these two status indications has changed. When enabled in the system menu, a status change is indicated as shown in figure 10.10.

Figure 10.10 – Optional Pop-Up Ok Run

To remove the popup, simply touch the OK button. If either the Ok or Run indicator is reset, the operator may consult the system menu diagnostic screen to determine the problem.

10.10 Screen Saver

The QX751screen backlight life is typically 5 years when in continuous use. If the application does not require interaction with the QX751for long periods of time, the backlight life can be extended by using the screen saver function. When enabled through the system menu, the backlight is shut off (screen goes black) after a specified time of no touch activity on the screen. When the screen saver shuts off the backlight, any operator touch on the screen or function keys reactivates the backlight.

Note that when the screen saver is active (backlight shut off), any initial touch activity on the screen (or function key) to reactivate the backlight is otherwise ignored by the QX751. Any additional touch activity is also ignored by the QX751for approximately one second thereafter.

It is possible for the application to temporarily disable the screen saver by generating a positive transition to %SR57.16 (coil only) at a rate faster than the screen saver timeout value. This may be desired while waiting for alarm acknowledgement.

10.11 Screen Brightness

The QX751provides a feature that allows screen dimming for night operation. To enable this feature, the application must access and control system register %SR57 (Display Backlight Brightness). Screen brightness is continuously variable by driving %SR57 through the range of 100 (full bright) to 0 (full off). It is left to the screen designer on if and how to present a Screen Brightness control to the user.

Note that backlight life may be shorted when screen is dimmed or screen brightness is varied on a repetitive basis.

11.1 QX751Resources

11.1.1 Overview

This section defines the resource limits that a programmer needs to know when writing a pro gram using the QX751. The QX751combines operator interface (display and keypad), local and remote I/O (analog and digital), networking, and controller, into a single product. In addition, the QX751 has graphical capabilities. The controller portion of the QX751 products is programmed in ladder logic via the Windows-based Cscape (Control Station Central Application Programming Environment) package.

CHAPTER 12: CSCAPE CONFIGURATION

12.1 Overview

QX751 hardware is programmed with a Windows-based PC application called Cscape (HE500OSW232).

Please see the on-line help provided with Cscape for additional details.

12.2 Cscape Status Bar

When the QX751 is connected to a PC using Cscape software a Status Bar appears at the bottom of the screen. The Cscape Status Bar can be used to determine if communications have been established between the QX751 and the Cscape program. Components of the Cscape Status Bar are explained in Figure 4.1.

Message Line -

The contents of these messages are context sensitive. The Message line can be empty.

Ready User: NONE HE QX451 BP43 (Model=) Equal Local :1 Target :2(R) [no forces] MOD

Controller Model - (Model Confirmation)

• Controller Model indicates the controller model for which the program in Cscape is configured.

• (Model Confirmation) provides the following indications:

• (Model=) - the actual Target Controller matches the configured Controller Model and Network.

• (Model Not=) – the actual Target Controller does not match the configured Controller Model and Network.

• (Model ?) – there may have been a change since the last time the Target Controller was compared to the configured Controller Model and Network.

Equal Indicator – indicates whether the current program in Cscape is equal to the program stored in the Target Controller.

• If Equal, the program in Cscape is the same as the program stored in the Target Controller.

• If Not Equal, the program in Cscape is not

Controller.

• If Unknown, there may have been a change since the last time the program in Cscape was compared to the Target Controller.

Current User -

indicates who is logged (for security purposes).

Communications Status - indicates the current status of the “pass through” Connector.

• Local: xx – indicates the Network ID of the QX751to which

• Target: yy( R ) – indicates the Network ID of the device with

the same as the program stored in the Target

File Modified Indicator - indicates that the file in the selected window has been modified but has not been saved.

the Cscape program is physically connected through its serial port. It can serve as a pass through device to other nodes on the network.

which the Cscape program is exchanging data.

Note: The Local unit and Target unit can be the

same unit or they can be separate units. The following are status indicators: (R) – Running

(D) - Do I/o (I) – Idle (?) – Cscape is not communicating with the remote unit. [no forces] – indicates no I/O has been forced.

August 20, 2009 Page 67 of 96 ECN # 979

CH. 12 MAN0890-02-EN

12.3 Establishing Communications

The main method for communicating between Cscape and an QX751 is RS-232 serial. The QX751can communicate with Cscape using USB to serial adapters, Ethernet, CAN (CsCAN) or modems. For communications other than RS-232 serial, please refer to the manual that ships with the adapter hardware being used for programming.

Start by configuring Cscape to use the correct communications port. This can be done using the Tools | Options | Communication Port dialog in Cscape.

Next connect the PC serial port to the port labeled MJ1 on the QX751. The easiest way to interface between the serial port and the units MJ1 port would be to use an HE500CBL300A. The HE500CBL300A is sold separately.

If communications are successful, the target indicator should show the mode of the controller Target: yy(R) as shown in the status section above.

If the controller is not communicating you may need to set the target ID of the controller in Cscape or on the unit. The Target ID allows directing communications to a particular unit when multiple units are connected via a CsCAN network. Units without CsCAN network ports respond to any network ID and do

require the ID to be configured.

not To check or change the ID on the QX, press the UP and DOWN keys on the QX751simultaneously to

enter the system menu. The first item in the menu is Set Network ID. Pressing Enter allows you to view or modify the ID of the unit.

To change the Target ID of Cscape, use the Controller | Set Target Network ID dialog.

12.4 Models supported

At the time of printing Cscape 8.00 supports all models and options offered in the QX751line. For the latest version of Cscape or compatibility information,

contact Technical Support.

12.5 Configuration

An overview of configuration:

1.) Start the configuration by selecting the Controller | I/O Configure menu item.

2.) If the QX751 is connected to the PC press the Auto Config System button to automatically detect the Base model, I/O and any communication options.

3.) If the QX751 is not

connected press the Config button to the right of the top of the unit. This

allows the base CPU to be selected.

4.) Select QX751, QX751 BP41, or QX751 BP43 from the type drop down box.

5.) Once the QX751CPU is selected, press OK to exit the dialog and configure the I/O.

6.) Once done configuring the I/O, OK out of configuration dialogs.

MAN0890-02-EN CH. 13

CHAPTER 13: MAINTENANCE

13.1 Firmware Updates

The QX751 products contain field updatable firmware to allow new features to be added to the prod uct at a later time. Firmware updates should only be performed when a new feature or correction is required.

Warning: Firmware updates are only performed when the equipment being controlled by the QX751 is in a safe, non-operational state. Communication or hardware failures during the firmware update process can cause the controller to behave erratically resulting in injury or equipment damage. Make sure the functions of the equipment work properly after a firmware update before returning the device to an operational mode.

Steps for updating the firmware:

1. Establish communication between Cscape and the controller using a direct serial connection to MJ1.

2. Make sure your application is available on your PC or upload the application.

3. Make sure the machinery connected to the QX751 is in a safe state for firmware update (see warning above).

4. Start the firmware update by selecting File | Firmware Update Wizard.

5. The correct product type should be selected, if it is not select the type of controller from the drop down list.

6. Press the start button

7. Wait for the firmware update to complete.

8. If there is a communication failure check the cable, connections and comm. port setting and try again.

9. Firmware updates typically delete the user applications to ensure compatibility. You will need to reload your application.

10. Test the operation of the equipment with the new firmware before returning the QX751system to an operation mode.

13.2 Backup Battery

The QX751contains an internal lithium battery used to maintain the real-time clock and retentive registers when power is disconnected. The QX751also contains a run-time battery monitor that continuously checks the voltage of that battery.

Under normal conditions the battery in the QX751should last 5 years. Higher operating temperatures or variations in batteries may reduce this time. It is suggested that the battery be replaced at least every 5 years to assure backup operation.

The QX751monitors the battery at power-up and run-time to provide the following indications when the battery is low, failed or missing.

• At power-up, an error message is displayed for 2 second after the self-test indicating the low or missing battery.

• The Ok status is reset and the Battery indicator under the system menu diagnostic sub-menu is set to WARNING.

• OCS register %SR55.13 is set.

If the optional controller pop-up status is enabled when the QX751detects battery failure, a popup status dialog is displayed on the current screen to alert the operator of the Ok status change. The operator can then invoke the system menu diagnostic sub-menu to determine the cause of the loss of Ok status. Alternately, the screen designer can also place a graphic object or audible indicator (through ladder logic) in the application (referenced to OCS register %SR55.13) to alert the operator of battery failure.

It is also suggested that the system menu diagnostic sub-menu battery indicator be checked on a regular basis to verify its operation.

13.2.2 Battery Replacement

Warning: Lithium Batteries may explode or catch fire if mistreated!

Do not recharge, disassemble, heat above 100 degrees C (212 degrees F) incinerate, or puncture.

Warning: Disposal of lithium batteries must be done in accordance with federal, state, and local

regulations.

CHAPTER 14: FAIL-SAFE SYSTEM

14.1 Overview

The Fail-Safe System is a set of features that allow an application to continue running in the event of certain types of "soft" failures. These "soft" failures include:

• Battery power loss

• Battery-Backed Register RAM or Application Flash corruption due to, for example, an excessive

EMI event.

The Fail-Safe System has the following capabilities:

• Manually backup the current Battery-Backed RAM Register Settings into Flash memory.

• Manually restore Register Settings from the values previously backed up in Flash to Battery-

Backed RAM.

• Detect corrupted Register Settings at power-up and then automatically restore them from Flash.

• Detect corrupted or empty application in Flash memory at power-up and then automatically load

the AUTOLOAD.PGM application file from Removable Media (Compact Flash or MicroSD).

• If an automatic Register Restore or Application Load o ccurs, the OCS can automatically be

placed in RUN mode

The fail-safe system can be accessed by going to the system menu of the controller. The menu “Fail-Safe System” has been added at the end of the main system menu for this. Selecting “Fail-Safe System” menu will open the following menu screen:

Figure 14.1 – Fail-Safe System

August 20, 2009 Page 73 of 96 ECN # 979

CH. 14 MAN0890-02-EN

14.2 Settings

To use the fail – safe feature, the user needs to do the following:

1. Backup the current Battery-Backed RAM Register contents in On-Board Flash memory using System Menu options.

2. From Cscape, create AUTOLOAD.PGM for the application program using ‘Export to Removable Media’.

3. Place the Removable Media with AUTOLOAD.PGM in the device.

4. Set the ‘Enable AutoLoad’ option in the device to YES.

5. Set the ‘Enable AutoRun’ option to YES if the controller needs to be placed in RUN mode automatically after automatic restore of data or AutoLoad operation.

August 20, 2009 Page 75 of 96 ECN # 979

CH. 14 MAN0890-02-EN

Backup OCS Data:

When initiated, this will allow the user to manually copy Battery-Backed RAM contents on to the onboard FLASH memory of the OCS. This will have the effect of backing up all the registers and controller settings (Network ID, etc.) that would otherwise be lost after a battery failure. %SR164.4 is set to 1 when backup operation is performed.

Figure 14.4 – Backup Register Data Screen on Overwrite

August 20, 2009 Page 76 of 96 ECN # 979

MAN0890-02-EN CH. 14

Restore OCS Data:

When initiated, this will allow the user to manually copy the backed up data from the onboard FLASH, to the Battery-Backed RAM. A restore operation will be automatically initiated if a backup has been previously created and on powerup the Battery-Backed RAM registers fail their check.

The following process will be followed for restoring data:

• The controller will be placed in IDLE mode.

• Data will be copied from onboard FLASH to OCS Battery-Backed RAM

• The controller will reset.

• The controller will be put in RUN mode if the AutoRun setting is ‘Yes’ else it will remain in IDLE

mode.

%SR164.3 is set to 1 only when an automatic restore operation is performed - not on a manual one. This bit is reset to 0 when a new backup is created.

Restoring of data can be manually performed by selecting RESTORE option from the Backup / Restore Data menu. This will cause the controller to reset.

August 20, 2009 Page 79 of 96 ECN # 979

CH. 14 MAN0890-02-EN

14.4 AutoLoad

This system menu option allows the user to specify whether the OCS automatically loads the application AUTOLOAD.PGM located in Removable Media.

Figure 14.8 – Enable AutoLoad System Menu

When the AutoLoad setting is enabled (set to YES), it can either be manually initiated or automatically initiated at power-up.

The automatic initiation will happen only in the following two cases:

• When there is no application program in the OCS and a valid AUTOLOAD.PGM is available in the removable media of the device.

• When the program residing in onboard memory is corrupted and a valid AUTOLOAD.PGM is available in the removable media of the device.

AutoLoad can be manually initiated when the SYS-F3 key is pressed (OCS can be in any of the following mode – Idle / Run / DOIO). This also requires a valid AUTOLOAD.PGM to be present in the removable media of the device.

When the AutoLoad setting is not enabled (set to NO), OCS will be in IDLE mode and the application is not loaded.

August 20, 2009 Page 80 of 96 ECN # 979

MAN0890-02-EN CH. 14

If the AUTOLOAD.PGM is security enabled, the user will be prompted to enter the password before loading the application. The application will be loaded from the Removable media only after getting the correct password.

%SR164.6 can be set to enable AutoLoad feature.

Figure 14.9 – Enable AutoLoad Yes/No System Menu

August 20, 2009 Page 81 of 96 ECN # 979

August 20, 2009 Page 82 of 96 ECN # 979

MAN0890-02-EN CH. 14

14.5 AutoRun

This system menu option, when enabled (YES), allows the user to automatically place the OCS into RUN mode after the AutoLoad operation or automatic Restore Data operation.

Figure 14.11 – Enable AutoRun System Menu

When the AutoRun setting is disabled (NO), the OCS remains in the IDLE mode after a Restore Data or AutoLoad operation.

%SR164.5 can be set by putting the system into RUN mode automatically, once an AutoLoad has been performed or an Auto-Restore has occurred.

If for any reason the AutoLoad-Run (Loading the AUTOLOAD.PGM automatically and OCS put in RUN mode) sequence does not succeed, a pop-up message box saying "AUTO-LOAD-RUN SEQUENCE FAILED" will be displayed. It will also show the reason for its failure. On acknowledging this message box the AutoLoad-Run sequence will be terminated, controller will return to the first user-screen and will be placed in IDLE mode.

CHAPTER 15: CLONE UNIT

15.1 Overview

This feature can be used for:

• Replacing an OCS by another unit of the same model.

• Duplicating or “clone” units without a PC.

15.2 Clone

User needs to perform the following to Clone:

1. The ‘Clone Unit’ can be accessed by going to the ‘System Menu’ of the OCS. A new menu “Clone Unit” has been added at the end of the main system menu as shown below:

Chapter 6 for details on using RM). It can then be used to clone a different OCS (exact

Figure 15.1 – System Menu

2. Selecting “Clone Unit” menu will open the following menu screen:

CH. 15 MAN0890-02-EN

3. Make/Create Clone option enables user to duplicate / Clone application file, all unit settings and all register values from Battery Backed RAM.

Selecting Make Clone brings up the screen below for the user:

Figure 15.3 – Clone Unit Confirm Screen

After confirmation, the OCS will create two new files in the root directory of the Removable Media Drive as shown below:

AUTOLOAD.PGM Application file CLONE.DAT File having all unit settings and register values from Battery Backed RAM

Figure 15.4 – Clone Unit Files

NOTE: Make/Create clone operation automatically includes the security in \AUTOLOAD.PGM file for

security enabled files.

August 20, 2009 Page 86 of 96 ECN # 979

MAN0890-02-EN CH. 15

4. Once the cloning is successful, OCS gives a message as below:

Figure 15.5 – Cloning Status

Make/Create clone can also be triggered by setting %SR164.9 bit to “1” from Ladder program or graphics. Once the operation is completed, this bit is made zero by the firmware. When Make clone operation is triggered by this SR bit, it does not ask the user for confirmation for making clone. The success / failure of the operation is also not notified on screen to the user.

In case of failure of “Make Clone” operation, %SR164.11 bit is set to “1” by the firmware and never reset. NOTE: Backup of registers in flash memory is not performed by Clone Feature. If user desires, Backup

should be done as explained in

Chapter 14 (Fail Safe System).

15.3 Load Clone

This option loads the application, all unit settings and register values from Removable media to the Battery backed RAM (Regardless of AutoLoad settings) and then resets the OCS for the settings to take effect.

User needs to perform the following to Load Clone:

1. Select “Clone Unit” from main system menu of OCS as shown below:

Figure 15.6 – System Menu

August 20, 2009 Page 87 of 96 ECN # 979

CH. 15 MAN0890-02-EN

2. Selecting “Clone Unit” menu will open the following menu screen. Select “Load Clone ”.

Figure 15.7 – Clone Unit Menu after Cloning

3. User needs to confirm Load Clone as shown below:

Figure 15.8 – Load Clone Confirm Screen

4. After confirmation, all unit settings and register values will be loaded from Removable media to the Battery backed RAM (Regardless of AutoLoad settings) and then OCS resets for the settings to take effect.

NOTE: For security enabled files, Load clone asks for password validation before loading the application. Load clone can also be triggered by setting %SR164.10 bit to “1” from Ladder program or graphics. Once

the operation is completed, this bit is made zero by the firmware. When Load clone operation is triggered by this SR bit, it does not ask the user for confirmation for loading clone. The success / failure of the operation is also not notified on screen to the user.

In case of failure of “Load Clone” operation, %SR164.12 bit is set to “1” by the firmware and never reset.

CHAPTER 16: TROUBLESHOOTING / TECHNICAL SUPPORT

CHAPTER 16 provides commonly requested troubleshooting information and checklists for the following topics.

• Connecting to the QX751controller

• Local controller and local I/O

• CsCAN Network

• Removable media

In the event that this information is not what you need, please contact Technical Support at the locations indicated at the end of this chapter.

16.1 Connecting to the QX

Cscape connects to the local controller automatically when the serial connection is made. The status bar below shows an example of a successful connection. This status bar is located in the bottom right hand corner of the Cscape window.

In general the Target number should match the Local number. The exception to this is when the controller is being used as a "pass through" unit where other controllers on a CsCAN network could be accessed through the local controller.

Determine connection status by examining feedback next to Local & Target in the status bar of Cscape.

Local: ###

Local: No Port

Local: No Com

Local: ???

Target: #(I,R,D)

Target: #(?)

If a number shows next to Local then communication is established to the local controller.

Cscape is unable to access the COM port of the PC. This could mean that Cscape is configured for a COM port that is not present or that another program has control of the COM port. Only one Cscape window can access a port at a time. Subsequent instances of Cscape opened will indicate No Port.

Cscape has accessed a PC COM port, but is not communicating with the controller. This typically occurs when the controller is not physically connected.

Unknown communication error. Close Cscape, power cycle the controller and reopen Cscape with a blank project. Check Local.

If I (idle), R (run), or D (do I/O) shows next to Target number then communication is established to the target controller.

Communication is not established to the target controller. Check node ID of controller and set Target to match. Make sure local connection is established.

August 20, 2009 Page 89 of 96 ECN # 979

CH. 16 MAN0890-02-EN

16.1.1 Connecting Troubleshooting Checklist

1. Programming and debugging must use MJ1.

2. Controller must be powered up.

3. Assure that the correct COM port is selected in Cscape. Tools/Options/Communications Port.

4. Assure that a straight through (non null modem) serial cable is being used between PC and controller.

5. Check that a Loaded Protocol or ladder is not actively using MJ1. Taking the controller out of run mode from the System Menu on the controller will make MJ1 available to Cscape.

6. Make sure the COM port of the PC is functioning. An RS-232 serial loopback and Microsoft HyperTerminal can determine positively if the COM port is working. Or connect to an alternate device to determine if the port is working.

7. Successful communications with USB-to-serial adapters vary. If in doubt, Horner APG offers a USB to serial adapter. Part number HE500USB600.

16.2 Local Controller and Local I/O

The system menu provides the following status indications that are useful for troubleshooting and system maintenance.

• Self-test results, diagnostics.

• RUN and OK status

• Network status and usage

• Average logic scan rate

• Application memory usage

• Loaded firmware versions

• Loaded protocols

• CompactFlash access

To view the system menu, press the System key on the keypad.

16.2.1 Local I/O Troubleshooting Checklist

1. Verify the controller is in RUN mode.

2. Check diagnostics to insure controller passed self-tests. View diags in System Menu or in Cscape, click; Controller/Diagnostics

3. Check data sheets to insure proper wiring.

4. Ensure that software configuration is correct and make sure any jumpers on I.O modules are set correctly.

5. Check data sheets for voltage and current limits.

6. Take ladder out of the picture. From Cscape set controller to “Do I/O” mode. In this mode inputs can be monitored and outputs set from a data watch window in Cscape without interference from the ladder program. Some I/O problems are only a result of a mistake in the ladder program.

WARNING: Setting outputs ON in Do I/O mode can result in injury or cause machinery to engage in an unsafe manner depending on the application and the environment.

16.3 CsCAN Network

For complete information on setting up a CsCAN network, refer to CAN Networks manual (MAN0799) by visiting our website (

http://www.heapg.com) for the address to obtain documentation and updates.

Network status, node ID, errors, and baud rate in the controller system menu are all in reference to the CsCAN network. These indications can provide performance feedback on the CsCAN netwo rk and can also be used to aid in troubleshooting. Refer to page

41 for full details on the system menu.

16.3.1 CsCAN Network Troubleshooting Checklist

1. Use the proper Belden wire type or equivalent for the network as specified in MAN0799.

2. The QX751 does not

provide 24VDC to the network. An external voltage source must be used for

other devices such as SmartStix I/O.

3. Check voltage at both ends of the network to insure that voltage meets specifications of attached devices.

4. Proper termination is required. Use 121-ohm (or 120-ohm) resistors at each end of the network. The resistors should be placed across the CAN_HI and CAN_LO terminals.

5. Measure the resistance between CAN_HI and CAN_ LO. If the network is properly wired and terminated there should be around 60 ohms.

6. Check for duplicate node ID’s.

7. Keep proper wires together. One twisted pair is for V+ and V- and the other twisted pair is us ed for CAN_HI and CAN_LO.

8. Make sure the baud rate is the same for all controllers on the network.

9. Assure shields are connected at one end of each segment -- they are not continuous through the network.

10. Do not exceed the maximum length determined by the baud rate and cable type.

11. Total drop length for each drop should not exceed 6m (20 feet). A drop may include more than one node. The drop length adds to the overall network length.

12. Network should be wired in "straight line" fashion, not in a "star" pattern.

13. In applications requiring multiple power supplies, make sure the V- of all supplies is connected together and to earth ground at one place only.

14. In some electrically noisy environments it may be necessary to add repeaters to the network. Repeaters can be used to add additional nodes and/or distance to the network and protect the signal against noisy environments. The Horner APG repeater is part # HE200CGM100.
