System Components

This chapter will help you become familiar with:
major components of a typical press system safety requirements for a press system
A press system, as referred to in this manual, includes:
a mechanical power press an Allen-Bradley clutch/brake controller all associated control panels and operator stations all associated output and feedback devices all wires and cables that interconnect system components
A functional block diagram of a typical press system is shown in Figure 2.1. This figure shows general relationships between major components. Specific functional relationships vary according to the requirements of your particular press system. For details, refer to;
chapters 3 thru 7 of this manual technical documentation provided by your press manufacturer ANSI B11.1, American National Standard for Machine Tools,
Mechanical Power Presses, Construction, Care, and Use
Important: Use an Allen-Bradley clutch/brake controller only with a mechanical power press that has a part-revolution clutch. A part-revolution clutch can be disengaged at any position of the shaft. This allows your clutch/brake controller to stop the press at any position. In contrast, a full-revolution clutch can be disengaged and stop the press only at the top position of the stroke.

General Hardware Considerations

This chapter will help you become familiar with the:
hardware components of your Allen-Bradley clutch/brake controller functional relationships between your PLC and clutch/brake controller interconnections between your PLC and clutch/brake controller switch settings that configure your clutch/brake controller and establish
its rack addresses
For details on how to install the I/O chassis and modules, refer to the installation publications that apply to your particular PLC. These publications, listed in our Publications Index (publication SD-499), discuss general layout rules, mounting dimensions, enclosure considerations, module keying, and field wiring arm connection technique.
Important: If you are using a large mechanical power press that generates high levels of shock and vibration, we recommend that you shock-mount each I/O chassis of your clutch/brake controller.
Important: Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated circuits or semi conductors in the PM Module if you touch backplane connector pins or internal components.

Description of your Clutch/Brake Controller

CAUTION: Rid yourself of charge before handling the module by touching a grounded object.
Your clutch/brake controller consists of chassis A and B connected to your PLC in a serial chain with remote I/O chassis, as shown in Figure 3.1. Table 3.A. lists required and optional clutch/brake controller hardware.
Chassis A and B are similar to remote I/O chassis. The major difference is that the left-most slot of chassis A and B contains a clutch/brake module. In contrast, the left-most slot of an I/O chassis contains an I/O adapter module.

Clutch/brake modules operate in parallel to monitor and control your press. Clutch/brake modules are also called “voting processors” because they must always have a consensus. Unless both voting processors constantly agree that they sense identical conditions in your clutch/brake press system, either or both voting processors stop press motion or prevent it from starting.
Your clutch/brake controller monitors and controls your press. Although your PLC does not control your press, it does configure and enable the clutch/brake controller. Your PLC ladder program can monitor inputs to, and the status of, your clutch/brake controller. This allows your PLC to control other indicators, machines, or processes related to your press system.
33
Chapter 3
Clutch/Brake Controller Hardware
In addition to chassis A and B, you must connect your PLC to at least one local or remote I/O chassis, chassis C. You need two, three, or four inputs at a local or remote I/O chassis.
Important: You must use 2-slot addressing and 8-point (single-density) I/O modules.

Twinaxial Cable Connections

Typical twinaxial cable connections of your clutch/brake controller are shown in Figure 3.2. Connect your clutch/brake controller to your PLC as part of its remote I/O distribution network. Use Twinaxial Cable (cat.no. 1770-CD) and Terminators (cat. no. 1770-XT).
Connect chassis A next to chassis B in the serial chain as shown in Figure 3.2. You may connect one or more remote I/O chassis in the same serial chain. Also, you may connect remote I/O chassis to other distribution channels at the I/O scanner module of your PLC.
Connect four Terminator Resistors (cat. No. 1770-XT) as shown in Figure 3.2. Connect one at:
the scanner module the last chassis, whether it is a clutch/brake chassis or a remote I/O
chassis
each end of the cable that connects chassis A and B at terminals 7, 8
and 9 of the 1771-PM module field wiring arms
For more information on how to connect remote I/O channels, refer to the installation publications that apply to your particular PLC. Also refer to Product Data of the Remote I/O Adapter Module. These publications are listed in our Publications Index (publication SD499)

Multiple Clutch/Brake Controllers

Panel Switches and Operator Stations

Although this manual describes a single clutch/brake controller, you may connect your PLC to multiple controllers, each controlling a separate press. Each clutch/brake controller uses two remote I/O racks for chassis A and B. For example, since a PLC-3 controller can support as many as 32 I/O racks, you may connect it to as many as 15 clutch/brake controllers with two additional I/O racks for modules in chassis C.
You can operate your press using up to four operator stations and an optional control panel. Installations vary according to the type of mechanical press and its application requirements. The number of stations, control switches contained in each, and the control panel could be as follows:

Clutch/Brake Controller Hardware
Important: There is no backplane switch setting to configure the optional dump valve circuit. You configure the optional dump valve circuit by inserting dump valve modules (cat. no. 1771-OD and 1771-IA) into module group 4, slots 0 and 1, respectively of chassis A and B. You must also set bit 14 unconditionally in your configuration rungs.
Important: To configure your clutch/brake controller for Micro-inch, see chapter 4 “Module Group 5, Slot 0 Reserved for Micro-inch”.
Important: Your PLC ladder program must include unconditioned configuration rungs that set or reset configuration bits to match the settings of backplane switches. Refer to chapter 4.

Rack Address of Chassis A and B

Establish the address of chassis A and B in each clutch/brake module so the PLC can communicate with it. Use valid rack addresses as determined by your PLC.
Switch assembly SW-1 determines the rack address. It is located under a sliding cover plate on the left side of the clutch/brake module near the top. Loosen the two screws holding the cover plate and slide it open. Locate switch assembly SW-1 at the top of the printed circuit board as shown in Figure 3.4.
Using switch assembly SW-1, designate chassis A and B as follows:
Chassis A - any rack address having position 6 OFF Chassis B - next consecutive upper or lower rack address
Important: If your ladder program monitors rack adapter fault bits for each chassis containing a clutch/brake module, the fault bits will indicate a faulted rack whenever the module trips power to I/O swingarms. This is because clutch/brake modules stop all communciation with the PLC until they verify that swingarm power has been disconnected.
Important: Always configure I/O racks assigned to clutch/brake controllers as full
racks, so the PLC can write configuration bits to each
PM chassis in Module Group 7.

Clutch/Brake Controller Hardware
For example, if you choose rack address 2 for chassis A, you must choose rack address 1 or 3 for chassis B.
Set the rack address in each clutch/brake module. Place a label on each clutch/brake module to identify in which chassis, A or B, it belongs.
Important: Chassis A and B rack addresses must be unique. No I/O chassis can have the same rack address as either chassis A or B. This restriction prohibits using the rack address of either chassis A or B for any complementary I/O chassis (a chassis with the same module addresses but having input modules where chassis A and B have output modules, and output modules where chassis A and B have input modules). This restriction also prohibits using the rack address of either chassis A or B for any partial remote I/O chassis (a chassis that starts with module group 2, 4, or 6). (Refer to chapter 4, Module Group 7, PLC Command Rungs, for reasons why you must restrict the use of this address.)

Setting the Communication Rate

Response Time

Triacs of your clutch/brake controller turn on in sequential order. Triacs connected to the high AC power line (L1) turn on before those in the triac-solenoid string connected to the low AC power line (L2). If the addresses are reversed, the triacs will turn on out of sequence, and the clutch/brake controller will not operate.
Set switch 1 on switch assembly SW-2 to the ON position. This sets the module’s communication rate at 57.6K baud. Be sure that you set the communication rate of both 1771-PM modules and the processor’s scanner to 57.6K baud, as well.
The worst case time required for the clutch/brake controller to respond to a change of input depends on Module-response and triac-switching times:

Clutch/Brake Controller Hardware
The number of degrees that the shaft continues to rotate, beyond the moment in time when the input changes, depends on the speed of rotation. The greater the number of strokes per minute (SPM), the further the shaft rotates before a command from the clutch/brake controller is applied. The response time of 44ms is represented in degrees of shaft rotation that increases as the rate of press operation increases (Figure 3.5).

Important: When estimating the braking distance in degrees of rotation, add the response time of the controller (Figure 3.5) to the specified downstroke or upstroke braking distance of your press.

Module Placement

Locations of all clutch/brake controller modules are shown in Figure 3.6. Note that some of these modules are optional.
CAUTION: Do not place any I/O module in module groups 6 or 7 of chassis A or B. These module group locations are non-functional and reserved for future use. If you use a slot power supply, install it in module group 7.
Important: Use series C or later 1771-OD modules because they have improved electrical noise immunity. Refer to Electrical Noise Suppression, in chapter 6, for a method of suppressing surge transient noise.

Programming Fundamentals

This chapter will help you become familiar with:
programming fundamentals as they relate to your clutch/brake
controller
the need for press configuration rungs relationships between your press configuration rungs and backplane
switch settings
relationships between configuration rungs and voting processor
firmware
the option of monitoring the press through your PLC ladder program the option of using PLC report generation to display messages that you
have stored.
Your PLC ladder program is composed of instructions that you enter into PLC memory. These instructions are organized into rungs. They typically monitor inputs and control outputs.
Your PLC ladder program does not control your clutch/brake controller, but it does configure and enable it. Although your ladder program cannot control any clutch/brake controller outputs, it controls output image table bits to configure and enable the voting processors. Your ladder program may examine input image table bits to monitor clutch/brake controller functions as we will explain later.
This chapter concentrates on PLC ladder programming that relates to your clutch/brake controller. For more details on ladder programming, refer to the programming manual that applies to your PLC processor. These publications are listed in our Systems Division Publication Index (publication SD499).
PLC ladder programming is described in this chapter as it relates to clutch/brake controller hardware and voting processor firmware (Figure 4.1).

You enable various functions by programming configuration rungs to set (turn on) or reset (turn off) configuration bits 01 thru 07 and 14 in the output image table word for module group 7, chassis A and chassis B. Bit addresses are shown in Figure 4.2. Example configuration rungs are shown in Figure 4.3 through Figure 4.5. Program your configuration rungs according to the requirements of your press system.
Be sure to set or reset each configuration bit 01 thru 07 and 14 with unconditioned rungs. They contain only output instructions, such as latch, unlatch, or output energize. Bits set by these rungs do not change during press operation. The latching or unlatching of these bits must correspond with backplane switch settings covered in chapter 3.

Matching Configuration Bits and Backplane Switches

As listed in Table 4.A, backplane switch positions 2 thru 8 correspond with configuration bits 01 thru 07. The voting processors in your clutch/brake modules allow press operation only if the set (on) and reset (off) states of configuration bits in your program correctly match the ON and OFF settings of corresponding backplane switches. The voting processors check for correct configuration when you apply power to your clutch/brake controller or change its mode of operation using the mode select switch.

Module Group 5, Slot 0 Reserved for MicroInch

Module Groups 6 and 7 Reserved for Data Storage

Important: Use module group 5, slot 0 only if your mechanical power press is equipped for micro-inch.
When you insert an input module (1771-IA) into this slot of chassis A and B, the processor recognizes micro-inch inputs at terminals 0, 1, 2. For the wiring of these terminals refer to chapter 6, Figure 6.4 or Figure 6.8.
Module group 6 is non-functional and reserved for future use.
Your program must use the output image table word associated with module group 7 as a storage word for configuring your clutch/brake modules (Figure 4.9). The processor transmits configuration data to the clutch/brake modules in each I/O scan.
CAUTION: Do not assign any I/O module to module group 7 of the rack address assigned to chassis A and B. Unexpected press operation will occur with possible damage to equipment and/or injury to personnel. However, you may install a slot power supply in module group 7, if needed.

Monitoring Clutch/Brake Controller Inputs and Outputs

Important: Be sure to assign full rack addresses for chassis A and B, regardless of whether you are using the optional dump valve and/or micro-inch circuit. This guards against assigning an I/O module to module group 7.
Refer to Rack Address of Chassis A and B, in chapter 3, for instructions on assigning rack addresses.
Your PLC ladder program cannot control outputs of your clutch/brake controller. However, your PLC ladder program can monitor any clutch/brake controller input or output because the I/O image table of chassis A and B is in the PLC data table.
Input image table bit addresses for chassis A and B are listed in tables A thru F in appendix 1. You may monitor these addresses. However, do not examine them as conditions for configuration rungs shown in Figures 4.3 through Figure 4.5. If you do, PM modules may stop the press. Then you must cycle power to restart.
413
Chapter 4
PC Ladder Programming
For an example of monitoring a clutch/brake controller function, assume that you wish to turn on a indicator while your clutch/brake controller is in continuous mode. You would wire your CONTINUOUS indicator to a terminal of an output module in any I/O chassis. You would also program a rung with one examine-on instruction and one output-energize instruction:
the examine-on instruction monitors input image bit 03 for module
group 0 chassis A or B.
the output energize instruction controls the CONTINUOUS indicator.
Important: Do not store data in unused data table addresses for chassis A and B. These are reserved for future enhancements for the clutch/brake controller.

Report Generation

Your PLC ladder program can monitor clutch/brake controller functions for report generation. This allows you to display, through an RS-232-C peripheral device, any of the following:
operator instructions fault correction procedures status reports diagnostic message codes
The clutch/brake module generates diagnostic message codes presented in table 7.C. Use them to generate messages that you have stored in PLC memory. These messages can be troubleshooting instructions to your press operators. For detailed descriptions of report generation, see the following publications:

Description
Clutch/brake controller locks out press motion
The operator can jog the press through a complete cycle by pressing and releasing the pair of INCH buttons. If INCH buttons are held, the press will stop at the top of its stroke.
This mode of operation lets you run your press at low speeds (1 to 5spm) for setting up dies and making trial runs. Y supply a separate drive and clutch/brake assembly to drive the shaft with full tonnage capacity at low press speeds, bypassing the flywheel.
The press completes one cycle and then stops on top, provided the operator holds both RUN buttons until completion of the down stroke.

This command, from a switch wired to the clutch/brake
controller or from the PLC, stops the press at a predetermined
point.
Releasing and pressing both RUN buttons during a specific portion of the upstroke causes the press to continue running onto the next stroke without stopping. This is a configurable option.
The operator must press both RUN buttons for 1/2 or 1 1/2 press cycles before the press can run on its own. This is a configurable option. Run buttons must be held until Runon (takeover) Cams are made.

The press will not start if you tie down one or more RUN buttons. After all RUN buttons are released, the operator must press both RUN buttons at a station simultaneously operators at active stations must press all RUN buttons within five seconds of each other to start the press.
The same applies to the pair of INCH buttons.
The press is limited to a single stroke, even if the operator continues to press both RUN buttons. The operator must release both RUN buttons and press them again to start press motion.

Operation of Voting Processors

This chapter will help you become familiar with:
operation of your voting processor firmware operational sequences for controlling your press
A clutch/brake controller has two clutch/brake modules, one in chassis A and the other in chassis B. Each clutch/brake module contains firmware that makes it function as a voting processor. Both voting processors contain identical firmware programs that independently monitor your clutch/brake controller I/O while controlling the press.
While running their firmware programs, both voting processors constantly “vote” on the status of your press. Both voting processors must always have a consensus. If they find that they don’t agree on their perceived conditions of your press, they either stop the press or prevent it from starting.
Also, both voting processors constantly check their communication channels. Press motion is stopped or inhibited if either voting processor detects a loss of communications with the PLC or the other voting processor. A failure in one voting processor is immediately seen as a communication loss by the other voting processor.

Emergency Shut Down

Finally, voting processors control the operational sequences that your operators must perform in inch, single, and continuous modes.
Each voting processor (PM module) controls one seal relay and one crowbar relay. All E-STOP switches are connected in series with seal relay contacts. If any of these contacts opens or if the PM module detects a trip condition, solenoid power is disconnected. If a PM module detects that solenoid power should be off when on, it turns on the crowbar relay to blow the solenoid power line fuses. At clutch/brake start, both PM modules test their crowbar relays without blowing the line fuses. Wiring diagrams in chapter 6 show these connections.

Fault Monitoring

PM modules continuously monitor your clutch/brake system for a trip or stop condition. Either condition halts and/or prevents press operation.
For

PM modules remove solenoid power by

Trip condition - A PM module turns off swing arm output power by de-energizing its seal relay output when it detects these trip conditions:

Whenever a PM module detects a trip condition, it:
trips power to the wiring arms of the I/O chassis sets rack fault bits stops communication with the PLC
If programmed to monitor rack fault bits, the PLC sees the clutch/brake I/O chassis as faulted until both PM modules verify that power to wiring arms has been removed. Then they resume communications automatically.
Stop condition - A PM module stops the press or prevents it from starting by turning off output triacs to solenoid valves when it detects stop conditions such as:
lost communications with the other PM module for 50ms lost communications with the PLC for one second cam limit switch signals out of sequence barrier guard opened during continuous mode
This is described further in Chapter 7, Diagnostic Message Codes.

Operation of Cam Limit Switches

The PM Module uses cam limit switches to determine press slide position. (Figure 5.1 and Table 5.A). You set two independent cam limit switch assemblies to the same settings so that:
run-on contacts are closed in the near bottom and upstroke zones top-stop-check contacts are closed in the downstroke and near-bottom
zones
anti-repeat contacts open during mid-upstroke for at least 70ms. Set the
open span to the approximate number of rotational degrees (10
0 -
450)
according to the speed of the press (1spm - 100spm).

Field Wiring Arm Connections

Control Power

Connect your clutch/brake controller to either an ungrounded AC power configuration (Figure 6.1) or a grounded AC power configuration (Figure 6.5). Either figure shows two separately fused 120V AC power circuits. Power lines 3L1 and 3L2 provide power to the field wiring arms at module group 3, slot 0 and module group 4, slot 0 in chassis A and B. Power lines 2L1 and 2L2 provide power to all other field wiring arms, the PLC power supply, and chassis A and B power supplies.
Either AC power configuration lets your PLC, clutch/brake controller, and inputs remain on after solenoid power has been disconnected as shown in Figure 6.1 or Figure 6.5. Disconnecting solenoid power stops press operation. Solenoid power is disconnected if an E-Stop switch opens, a seal relay trips, or a crowbar relay turns on. When solenoid power is disconnected, both voting processors continue to run and generate diagnostic message codes. Status indicators of input modules continue to show which switches are on or off. Therefore, either AC power configuration lets you more easily troubleshoot most problems that cause your press to shut down.
Important: Be sure that your clutch/brake controller is properly grounded to provide greater safety and reduced electrical noise interference. For details, refer to PLC Grounding (publication 1770-4.1).
EStop Switches, Seal Relays, and Crowbar Relays
The E-Stop circuit allows an operator or a voting processor to quickly stop the press. Connect all E-Stop switches and contacts in series with seal A and B contacts, as shown in Figure 6.1 or Figure 6.5.
WARNING: To guard against possible injury to personnel and damage to your press, connect seal relays, crowbar relays, and operator station E-Stop switches exactly as shown in Figure 6.1 and Figure 6.3 or Figure 6.5 and Figure 6.7.
You may connect any number of additional E-Stop switches and contacts in series with the mandatory operator station E-Stop switches. These can include, but are not limited to, remote E-Stop switches, air pressure switch contacts, and relay contacts for monitoring the power supply.
63
Chapter 6
Field Wiring Arm Connections
Install at least one E-Stop switch at each operator station. Then, any operator who sees a problem can press an E-Stop switch to stop the press. Also when either voting processor detects a fault, it de-energizes its seal relay to stop the press.
Opening any E-Stop switch or de-energizing either seal relay removes AC power (3L1) from main valve solenoids A and B, auxiliary valve solenoids A and B, dump valve solenoids A and B, crowbar relays A and B, and seal relays A and B, as shown in Figure 6.1, Figure 6.3 and Figure 6.4 or Figure 6.5, Figure 6.7 and Figure 6.8. When either voting processor detects that 3L1 is off, it immediately commands its seal relay to remain de-energized. If either voting processor detects that 3L1 is still on after commanding its seal relay to de-energize, it energizes its crowbar relay. This shorts 3L1 to 3L2, which blows the 3L1 and 3L2 line fuse or fuses.

Crowbar Test Inputs

Crowbar tests inputs, shown in Figure 6.1 or Figure 6.5, allow the voting processors to test their crowbar relays without blowing the 3L1 and 3L2 line fuse or fuses. This test occurs while you push the START button shown in Figure 6.1 or Figure 6.5.
To allow for the crowbar test, you should press the START button (break-before-make pushbutton switch) for more than one-half second. As you begin pressing the START button, its two sets of N.C. (normally closed) contacts open first, isolating crowbar A and B relay contacts from 3L2. As you press the START button all the way in, its N.O. (normally open) contacts close, applying 3L1 power to module group 3, slot 0. Before you release the START button, each voting processor briefly energizes its crowbar relay and checks, through its crowbar test input, that the relay turns on then off. Each voting processor energizes its seal relay only after its crowbar relay is tested as working correctly. At any time after you release the START button, either crowbar relay can blow the 3L1 and 3L2 line fuse or fuses shown in Figure 6.1 and Figure 6.5.

Field Wiring Arm Connections
When PM modules command triacs ON or OFF, they check that feedback signals (triac, valve stem, air pressure, and motion detector) have turned ON or OFF in the order shown and within the times shown.
If and when a PM module detects that a triac or feedback signal has not turned ON or OFF within the times shown, it trips seal relay output to remove power from the wiring arms of 1771-OD output modules.
Be sure that you configure your clutch/brake controller accordingly by setting your backplane switches (chapter 3) and programming your configuration bits (chapter 4).
Connect either one or both motion detector switches and either one or both pressure switches if so configured.

Internal/External Fault Detection

If your main valves have external fault detection switches and you configured for valve stem feedback, all other clutch/brake solenoid valves must have external valve stem feedback. If auxiliary valve solenoids have internal fault detection (do not have valve stem switches), jumper terminal 7 to terminal 0, Module group 2, slot 0 (Figure 6.2 or 6.6) in chassis A and B.
There are two general types of solenoid valves: those with external fault detection, and those with internal fault detection.
Solenoid valves with external fault detection have switches on the valve stems which you use to feed back the status of valve stems to your clutch/brake controller. The firmware in your clutch/brake module performs the fault detection.
A valve with external fault detection, Figures 6.2 or 6.6, provides an external signal of its valve position. When the valve is energized, the external signal is “on”. Interfacing this type of valve to the clutch/brake system requires:
66
enabling valve stem feedback with backplane switches (Figure 3.3) enabling valve stem feedback in PC configuration rungs (Figure 4.3)
If you configure for valve stem feedback, all valves must have valve stem feedback or simulate it (have their respective terminals jumpered to the input terminals of the main valve stem switches for simulated inputs).
Chapter 6
Field Wiring Arm Connections
Solenoid valves with internal fault detection close automatically when the valves detect a mechanical fault. They have no valve stem switches. When using this type of solenoid valve, do not configure your clutch/brake controller for valve-stem fault detection.
A valve with internal fault detection mechanically assures that both solenoids energize in unison before the valve passes air. Should a fault occur and only one side energizes, the valve will not pass air. Some valves of this type have a poppet valve which blows and vents to the atmosphere. The poppet valve must be manually reset.

V
alvestem feedback, but Main or Aux valve is NOT equipped with external fault detection (has internal detection)
All switches shown in Figure 6.2 or Figure 6.6 are optional. Decide which ones you will use. Then, configure your clutch/brake controller accordingly.
Optional Valve-stem Feedback
If main and auxiliary valve solenoids do not have valve-stem switches, then consider omitting valve-stem feedback. If either one has valve-stem switches, consider using valved-stem feedback. Then if some valves do not have valve-stem feedback, you must simulate valve-stem feedback for the valve(s) without valve-stem switches.
Follow these instructions if using valve-stem feedback:
Then
1) Enable valvestem feedback with  backplane switches (Figure 3.3)  PC configuration rungs (Figure 4.4)
2)
All valves must use (or simulate) it.
3)
Wire valvestem switch circuits to 2L1 (Figure 6.2 or 6.6)
Modify above as follows:
1)
Omit wiring the valvestem switch circuit to 2L1 for that valve (Figure 6.2 or 6.6).
2)
Simulate feedback for that valve by jumpering terminals 0 and 7 in chassis A, the same in chassis B.
No valvestem feedback 1)Do not enable it
2)
Do not wire valvestem switches
3)
Do not jumper terminals for simulation

Connect main valve solenoids A and B as shown in Figure 6.3 or Figure 6.7 with these connections:
feedback from main valve solenoid triacs that allows both voting
processors to monitor the on or off state of each triac, and check for shorted or open triacs, and open or shorted main valve solenoids.
load resistors, LRA and LRB, for triac feedback from main valve
solenoids A and B
crowbar relay coils and seal relay coils
If your main valves use valve stem switches for external fault detection, you must configure for valve stem fault detection by setting backplane switches (chapter 3) and programming configuration bits (chapter 4). Then, your optional auxiliary and/or dump valves must also use valve stem switches. If not, you must simulate their inputs by jumpering their input terminals to the input terminals for the main valve stem switches.
68
If your valves have internal fault detection (no valve stem switches), do not configure for valve stem fault detection, and delete valve stem input connections from Figure 6.4 or Figure 6.8 and Figure 6.2.
Each main valve solenoid should draw at least 60mA. If not, connect an appropriate load resistor in parallel with it. For neatness and safety, we recommend that you connect feedback and load resistors only at convenient terminal strips, not at the field wiring arms.
Chapter 6
Field Wiring Arm Connections

Optional Auxiliary Valve Solenoids

Use auxiliary valve solenoids when you want to boost the volume of air to the clutch/brake assembly. Do this by placing auxiliary valves in parallel with main valves in your high pressure air line.
If you use auxiliary valves, connect auxiliary valve solenoids A and B shown in Figure 6.3 for ungrounded solenoids, or Figure 6.7 for grounded solenoids. If you don’t use one or both auxiliary valve solenoids, you must connect a 2k ohm, 15W resistor in place of each. Figure 6.3 or Figure 6.7 also shows connections for:
feedback from auxiliary valve solenoid triacs that allows both voting
processors to monitor the on or off state of each triac, and check for shorted or open triacs and shorted or open auxiliary valve solenoids.
load resistors, LRA and LRB, for triac feedback from auxiliary valve
solenoids.
Each auxiliary valve solenoid should draw at least 60mA. If not, connect an appropriate load resistor in parallel with it. For neatness and safety, we recommend that you connect the feedback resistor and the load resistor only at convenient terminal strips, not at the field wiring arms.

Optional Dump Valve Solenoids

If you use auxiliary valves with internal fault detection (no valve stem switches) but you have configured for external fault detection, simulate the inputs of the auxiliary valve stem switches. Do this by jumpering the input terminals of field wiring arms for auxiliary valve stem switches to the input terminals for the main valve stem switches. Jumper terminal 7 to terminal 0, module group 2, slot 0, for chassis A and B (Figure 6.2).
Use optional dump valves and solenoids when you want to accelerate the evacuation of air from the clutch/brake assembly.
If you use dump valves, install two output modules (cat. no. 1771-OD, series C or later). Place them in module group 4, slot 0, chassis A and B to control the dump valve solenoids. Also install two input modules (cat. no. 1771-IA). Place them in module group 4, slot 1, chassis A and B to monitor feedback inputs from the dump valve solenoids. Set configuration bit 14 unconditionally as shown in Figure 4.3, Figure 4.4 or Figure 4.5.
Connect dump valve solenoids and valve stem switches (if you use them) as shown in Figure 6.4 for ungrounded solenoids, or Figure 6.8 for grounded solenoids.

Each dump valve solenoid should draw at least 60mA. If not, connect an appropriate load resistor in parallel with it. For neatness and safety, we recommend that you connect the load resistor only at convenient terminal strips, not at the field wiring arms.
If you use dump valves with internal fault detection (no valve stem switches) but you have configured for external fault detection, simulate the inputs of the dump valve stem switches. Do this by jumpering the input terminals of field wiring arms for dump valve stem switches to the input terminals for the main valve stem switches. Jumper terminal 4, module group 4, slot 1 (Figure 6.4 or Figure 6.8) to terminal 0, module Group 2, slot 0 (Figure 6.2 or Figure 6.6) for chassis A and B.
Optional Microinch Valve Solenoids
Micro-inch mode lets you run your press at low speed (1 to 5 strokes per minute) for setting up dies and making trial runs. Micro-inch mode requires that you provide a separate drive and clutch/brake assembly to drive the shaft with the flywheel bypassed. Micro-inch mode functions only when the main clutch/brake assembly is inoperative, and vice versa. The advantage of the micro-inch mode operation is full press tonnage capacity at low press speeds. Other characteristics include:
Micro-inch motion is initiated using INCH buttons. Micro-inch solenoid valves function only when the mode select switch
is in the MICRO-INCH position.
Diagnostic codes for micro-inch mode are listed in the look-up table.
They are 9-bit binary (3-digit hex) as compared with 8-bit binary (2-digit hex) for all other diagnostic codes.
Voting processors inhibit main valve, auxiliary valve, and dump valve
solenoids whenever you use micro-inch. Voting processors monitor these outputs in micro-inch mode to verify they are not on or shorted.
Connect valve solenoids A and B for micro-inch mode as shown in Figure 6.4 for ungrounded solenoids and Figure 6.8 for grounded solenoids. If you do not use micro-inch, no connections are needed. Figure 6.4 and Figure 6.8 also show connections for:
610
feedback from micro-inch valve solenoid triacs that allows both voting
processors to monitor the on or off state for each triac, check for shorted or open triacs, and shorted or open solenoids of the micro-inch valves.
load resistors, LRA and LRB, for triac feedback from micro-inch valve
solenoids.
switch inputs for the mode select switch, valve stem switches, and
pressure switch for micro-inch circuits.
Chapter 6
Field Wiring Arm Connections
Each solenoid valve should draw at least 60mA. If not, connect an appropriate load resistor in parallel with it. For neatness and safety, we recommend that you connect feedback and load resistors only at convenient terminal strips, not at the field wiring arms.
Select the same type of solenoid valve for micro-inch as you select for main and auxiliary solenoid valves (internal or external fault detection).

Electrical Noise Suppression

Use series C or later 1771-OD output modules because they have improved electrical noise immunity.
To provide additional immunity against surge transient noise, we recommend that you connect metal oxide varistors (MOVs) to the triac outputs of your 1771-OD modules for main and auxiliary valve solenoids, and dump valve solenoids, if used. Typical connections are shown for auxiliary valve solenoids for ungrounded AC power (Figure 6.4)) and grounded AC power (Figure 6.8). Connect the MOVs as close to the field wiring arm terminals as possible. In the grounded AC power configuration, make connections to 3L2 (not located on the field wiring arm) as short as possible.

Cam Limit Switches

Install two separate cam limit switch assemblies each with three cams and three cam limit switches. Connect cam limit switches exactly as shown in Figure 6.9. This allows each voting processor to monitor its own limit switches for:
top-stop-check (TCAM) run-on (RCAM) anti-repeat (ACAM)
Each cam limit switch assembly must be independently driven by the press shaft through a separate coupling device. Couple each cam limit switch assembly to the shaft through a separate direct coupling, a separate gear assembly, or a separate chain assembly.
WARNING: To guard against injury to personnel and damage to your press, install two separate cam limit switch assemblies that are independently driven by the press shaft through separate coupling devices.
Two separate cam limit switch assemblies allow your clutch/brake controller to stop press motion in case there is a failure within either cam limit switch assembly or a breakage in either coupling device.
Set each pair of cam limit switches to similar settings as shown in Figure 5.1. If the settings are not similar, the voting processors can disagree on their perceived shaft zones and cause nuisance shutdowns.
We recommend the Allen-Bradley Rotating Cam Limit Switch (cat. no. 803-P3). This rugged duty cam limit switch assembly is well suited for press applications. For ordering information, see the Allen-Bradley Industrial Control Catalog or contact your local Allen-Bradley sales engineer or distributor.
Because the Cat. No. 803-P3 is an industrial grade heavy-duty limit switch, we recommend that it switch a power circuit drawing at least 0.25 Amp. Install a 470 or 500 ohm 50-watt load resistor in parallel with the AC input to generate this current.
You need to mount the resistors on the subpanel to keep dissipated heat (from resistors) away from modules, and because the resistor’s axial leads are not compatible with the wiring arm.

Inch Buttons and PlugIn Operator Stations
Connect the (NC) and (NO) contacts of each INCH button to opposite chassis exactly as shown in Figure 6.11. This allows both voting processors to monitor and cross check both INCH buttons for correct operation. You may locate the INCH buttons at an operator control panel. However, they are not part of any plug-in operator station. Wire them directly as shown in Figure 6.11.
Plug-in operator stations 1 thru 4 and dummy plugs that you may use to bypass these stations are shown in Figure 6.11 and Figure 6.12. You may alter this configuration according to the number of bypassable stations that you need for your press system.
If all run stations are bypassed, you may still operate in inch or micro-inch mode using INCH buttons.
For example, if you have only one operator station, you may wire station 1 as shown in Figure 6.11, using direct wiring instead of operator station plug connections. However, you must also bypass station 2, using direct wiring instead of dummy plug connections. In other words, to bypass station 2, you may simply connect terminals 3 and 4 of each field wiring arm to 2L1.
For another example, if you have three operator stations, and only station 2 will be in constant use, build and wire plug-in stations 1 and 3 as shown in Figure 6.11 and Figure 6.12. Directly wire station 2 according to Figure 6.11. Directly wire station 4 bypass according to Figure 6.12. You must also build and wire the dummy plugs for stations 1 and 3.
Important: Configure or do not configure stations 3 and 4 through backplane switch settings as described in chapter 3 and PLC configuration bits as described in chapter 4. If you configure plug-in station 3 and/or station 4, but do not use either or both, you must bypass the unused station(s) with a dummy plug(s). If you have not configured for stations 3 and 4, you need not place a 1771-IA module in module group 1, slot 0, chassis A and B.
Connect the (NC) and (NO) contacts of each RUN button to opposite chassis exactly as shown in Figure 6.11 and Figure 6.12 for all stations. This allows both voting processors to monitor and cross check all RUN buttons for correct operation.

Important: When mounting RUN and INCH buttons, ensure that:
all RUN buttons and both INCH buttons are either guarded or
flush-head pushbutton switches, such as Allen-Bradley Bulletin 800P Palm Operated Pushbuttons. You can operate guarded buttons only by reaching through their guard rings.
the distance between each left RUN or INCH button and its
corresponding right RUN or INCH button is great enough to allow operation of both buttons only by both hands.
all RUN and INCH buttons are located at greater than minimum safe
distance from the point of operation of your press as specified in OSHA Regulations, Title 29-Labor, Chapter XVII, Section 1910.217, and ANSIB11.1, section 5.3 Formulas for calculating the minimum safe distance are included.

Optional Binary Display

Optional Indicators

Use the optional diagnostic binary display shown in Figure 6.13 to troubleshoot your press. Chapter 7 lists the diagnostic messages.
We recommend Allen-Bradley Small Pilot Lights, Transformer Type (cat. no. 800T-PS16R) with 1771-OA Output Modules. You may order color caps separately (red is standard):
Red
= cat. no. 800T Green = Cat. no. 800T Amber = cat. no. 800T Blue = cat. no. 800T White = cat. no. 800T Clear = cat. no. 800T

You may also want to order Small Pilot Light Guards (cat. no. 800T-N226), to protect the caps against accidental breakage.
STOP-ON-TOP FAULT - tells an operator that the brake is faulty. If the shaft overshoots the near top position in inch, single, or continuous mode, both voting processors prohibit clutch actuation, and turn on this indicator. (See Table 5.a and Figure 6.14)
RUN WINDOW - turns on when starting the press in these modes:
single-stroke: When both RUN buttons have been pressed at one
station, other active stations have 5 seconds to press their RUN buttons as shown by this indicator.

continuous: Each ON/OFF transition of the ARM CONTINUOUS
button starts a 5-second period in which you must press all active RUN buttons to start continuous stroking as shown by this indicator. Pressing the ARM CONTINUOUS button again within 5 seconds (after the transition) starts another
Important: Press the momentary ARM CONTINUOUS button less than 3 seconds. Pressing it for a longer time may inhibit its function and require you to release and press it again.
MICRO-INCH - turns on when voting processors detect an error in micro-inch mode and display a diagnostic message code which is displayed by means of the diagnostic message display. Use look-up table
7.C to determine the fault or error.
You can use the micro-inch output in two ways:
to turn on the MICRO-INCH indicator to set the most significant bit in a 9-bit binary output.
Diagnostic codes for micro-inch mode are 9-bit binary (3-digit hex) with 1 as the first digit (Figure 6.14). Diagnostic message codes for all other modes are 8-bit binary (2-digit hex). (Figure 6.13)

Lamp Test

Inputs to Chassis C

When you configure the lamp test feature, you can check that all indicators are working by pressing the LAMP TEST switch connected to chassis C. The clutch/brake controller energizes the outputs to the following indicators while the lamp test input is on:
Module Group 5, Slot 1, Chassis A and B for the diagnostic display Module Group 3, Slot 1, Chassis A and B for BRAKE FAULT, RUN
WINDOW, and MICRO-INCH indicators.
Since hex (hexadecimal) numbers are easier than binary for people to read, you may want to display hex message codes. You may provide a device to convert the eight-digit binary outputs of chassis A and B, module group 2, slot 1 to two-digit hex displays. Select output modules that provide proper voltage to the device. For assistance, contact your local Allen-Bradley sales engineer or distributor.
In chapter 7, we describe other methods of displaying hex message codes.
Chassis C provides for these functions:
reset latched messages lamp test customer interlock (redundant to Figure 6.1 or 6.5) barrier guard (redundant to Figure 6.10) stop-on-top (redundant to Figures 6.11 and 6.12)
This chassis is optional because you can:
omit redundant functions use alternatives for the non-redundant functions
As alternatives, you can program the PLC to transfer the message reset bit (bit 14) and/or the lamp test bit (bit 16) to the clutch/brake modules to provide those functions. If already using A-B’s PanelView
, use that
operator interface to implement these functions.
If you use chassis C, follow these steps:
1. Wire PLC command switches as shown in Figure 6.15
2. Include command rungs, Figure 4.6, 4.7, or 4.8.
3. Set the backplane switches of chassis C to a valid rack address for
your PLC and clutch/brake system.

Troubleshooting

General Troubleshooting Procedure

Although the procedure for troubleshooting your clutch/brake controller varies with each problem, use the following steps as a general procedure:
1. Examine Figure 7.2 and NO TAG.
2. Answer questions in Figure 7.2 and NO TAG until you see a
reference to another figure or table. Table 7.C lists diagnostic codes.
3. Place a bookmark at Figure 7.2 or NO TAG and go to the figure or
table that it referred to in step 2. That figure or table might contain other references. Therefore you may need several bookmarks while working among various figures and tables throughout this manual. Table 7.D is your primary reference.
4. Isolate the problem using the guidelines in Figure 7.2, or NO TAG,
Table 7.C, and other references.
5. Correct the problem.

Troubleshooting Hints

WARNING: To guard against injury to personnel or damage to your press, open and lock the main power disconnect to turn off all AC and DC power before:
manually turning the press shaft adjusting or repairing any moving parts in your press repairing or replacing any wiring in your press system,
including any field wiring arm or cable connections
replacing any electronic or electrical components, such as
clutch/brake controller and I/O modules, power supplies, or chassis
replacing blown fuses in your press system
Diagnostic codes are specific and point to the exact input or output device that controls PM operation. When your system is wired as outlined in this manual, you can identify the cause of a fault as follows:
1. Review the section “Diagnostic diagnostic message codes”, below.
74
2. Note the diagnostic code for both
PM modules
Press will not run.
Chapter 7
Troubleshooting
3. Determine the input or device causing the fault from the
section/sub-section heading in Table 7.D where the fault code was tabulated and from other figures or tables referred to.
4. Interpret the messages. Was this output supposed to be on? Was that
device supposed to be off?

Chapter 7
Troubleshooting
5. Trace wire leads and/or inspect the faulted device.
If you wired the PM system in a manner other than outlined in this manual, faults are more difficult to track. Proceed as follows:
1. Determine if the fault and corresponding diagnostic code was caused
by alterations in system wiring, i.e., if the fault is a run station fault, are the run stations wired directly to the PM system or through auxiliary chassis controlled by the programmable controller? If the latter is the case, you should look at the programmable controller’s ladder program.
2. Determine if you have an I/O problem. The PM module can only
diagnose its own I/O level. That is, it alerts you to the exact input or output within the system that it “sees” as incorrect. You must interpret from there.

Troubleshooting Example

Assume that your press is running normally, then stops suddenly. For this example, we will follow the general troubleshooting procedure.
1. Examine Figure 7.2 and Figure 7.3.
2. The first question asked in both figures is whether a diagnostic
message is displayed. For this example, we assume that chassis A and B are displaying these diagnostic messages:
chassis A 0010 1001 (hex 29) chassis B is displaying 0010 1000 (hex 28)
Because your answer is yes, see Table 7.D to define the problem.
3. In Table 7.D you find that:
Binary 0010 1001 (hex 29) is a T-type (trip condition) message that
tells us: Station 1 active connection is open (for alternate chassis). Check wiring. (figure 6.11).
Since chassis A is displaying this message, the alternate chassis is
chassis B.
Binary 0010 1000 (hex 28) is the same message. It is for the
chassis displaying the message, chassis B in this case.
76
Chapter 7
Troubleshooting
In Table 7.C, the numbers in parentheses are figure references. In this example, both messages refer to Figure 6.11. Therefore, place a bookmark at Table 7.D and go to that figure.
4. Figure 6.11 shows station 2 active connections for both chassis:
Left Active connects to terminal 5 of field wiring arm for module
group 0, slot 1 in chassis A.
Right Active connects to terminal 5 of field wiring arm for module
group 0 slot 1 in chassis B.
Since you learned in step 3 that the problem relates to chassis B, you can concentrate on the Right Active connection.
5. To further isolate the problem, place a bookmark at Figure 6.11 and
return to Figure 7.3. The next question in this figure asks: Does the problem relate to an input switch or connection? In this example, your answer is yes, which leads you to another question. Does the status indicator for the input to the 1771-IA module respond correctly? (See Figure 7.1).
6. Figure 7.1 shows you where to find the input status indicators. For
this example, assume that the input status indicator in chassis B for module group 0 slot 1, terminal 5 is off.
As shown in Figure 6.11, the Right Active connection is jumpered as long as Plug-In Operator Station 2 is plugged in. Therefore, the indicator for Right Active should be on.
7. Return to NO TAG. Since this indicator is off, your answer is no to
the question: Does the input status indicator respond correctly? NO TAG tells you to replace the input switch or check its wiring.
8. Correct the problem after first opening and locking the main power
disconnect. Inspect and test the Right Active connection (Figure
6.11). For this example, you find a broken wire in Plug-In Operator Station 2. Repair the broken wire then, close the main disconnect and return the press to normal operation.

Troubleshooting

Display of Diagnostic Message Codes

When the PM module detects a condition, it immediately generates the corresponding message code. You can display diagnostic message codes with an optional display device connected to output modules in these locations in chassis A and B:
module group 5, slot 1 (8-bit binary code) module group 3, slot 1, bit 2 (9th bit for micro-inch)
When using micro-inch mode, diagnostic diagnostic message codes are 9-digit binary (3-digit hex) rather than 8-digit binary (2-digit hex) for other diagnostic message codes. The most significant bit (bit 9) indicates a micro-inch code. When set, 2-digit hex codes XX become 3-digit hex codes 1XX for micro-inch.
You can display diagnostic message codes in 9-digit binary, or use an optional binary-to-hex converter and display diagnostic message codes in easy-to-read hexadecimal notation. No programming is required. Just install output modules in those locations and connect display devices (Figures 6.13 and Figures 6.14).
You can also view diagnostic message codes with an Allen-Bradley programming or display terminal using the data monitor feature:

Types of Diagnostic Message Codes

PM modules detect operational and equipment faults, and indicate corresponding diagnostic message codes for more than 250 detected conditions. Diagnostic diagnostic message codes refer to specific inputs or outputs, such as a contact on a switch or cam. Upon detecting a condition, each PM module generates its own diagnostic code. Quick succession of events may cause each PM module to detect a different condition, one condition resulting from the other.
PM modules generate three types of diagnostic message codes according to the severity of the condition:
Code Type Priority Method
N nonlatched least

Nonlatched Messages (lowest priority)
Non-latched messages occur when the PM module detects an error condition while the press is idle (clutch/brake solenoids are OFF) and the control seal relays are either open or closed. The PM module:
prevents press operation as long as the error is present
After you correct the error conditions, the PM module automatically clears the message and readies itself for operation. These messages are typically related to a wiring error or equipment malfunction.
Example: A broken or loose wire on the active line of Run Station 1 (Figure 6.13) could cause the PM module to generate the following message code:
Error 10 (Hex) Check RUN button signals. Activate or bypass the station.

Latched Messages (medium priority)
Latched messages occur when the PM module detects error conditions while the press is running (clutch/brake solenoids are ON). The module:
stops press motion immediately latches ON a diagnostic message turns OFF solenoid valve triacs
(seal relays remain closed)
The latched-message condition remains until you correct the problem and press the RESET LATCHED MSG pushbutton wired to chassis C. Typical error conditions are equipment failures or improper mechanical adjustments.
Example: If the barrier guard switch should open while the press is running in continuous mode, the PM module would immediately turn OFF the solenoid valve triacs and generate the following message code:
Error 09 (Hex) Barrier guard dropout or absent
Latched Messages Followed by 0D" (corrective intervention)
Whenever a diagnostic message code is followed by the ”0D” message code, the maintenance technician must reset the PM system by removing control power, and then re-applying power. This forces the technician to correct the problem before press operation can continue.
Standard Corrective Action
Because the ”0D” message code accompanies a variety of other diagnostic message codes, we recommend a standard corrective action. Use it when correcting faults for “OD” diagnostic message codes presented in Table
7.C. Check for proper cam setting and operation.
(Refer to Figure 5.1 in this manual.) Check for bad or frozen cam contacts If more than one cam assembly is used for multi-speed press operation,
check switching of these cams. Check for proper wiring of cam switches. Check for proper wiring of I/O module swing arms.

Restarting the Press
You re-start the press with this procedure:
1. When the “OD” message is displayed, press ESTOP to drop the seal
relays.
Message code “50” is displayed (swingarm power dropout)
2. Press the START button.
3. Press the RESET LATCHED MSG button.
4. Select INCH mode if not already selected.
5. Inch the press to the near-top position.

Tripcondition Message (highest priority)
Trip-condition messages occur anytime the PM module detects a fault condition that casts doubt on the system’s ability to:
measure the press’s shaft angle control power to the solenoid valve triacs
When it detects this type of fault, the PM module immediately:
stops press motion opens the seal relays
If it detects that the seal relays did not open, it
blows the main power fuses with crowbar relays
The trip-condition fault remains until you correct the problem and press the RESET LATCHED MSG pushbutton wired to chassis C. Typical fault conditions are due to system configuration, feedback signals, run stations, or triacs. After corrrecting the fault condition, get back into operation with the same steps as 0D Latched Message, above.
Messagecode Priority
Example: If the motion detection input (Figure 6.2) should turn ON while the press is operating, and you did not configure for motion detection, the PM module would generate the following message:
Error BB (Hex)
Motion detector signal present though motion detector feedback is not configured.
Diagnostic diagnostic message codes are not queued. When the PM module detects multiple latched or tripped message conditions, it sends the highest priority message code to the processor so your ladder logic can process it, and to pre-determined slots in its I/O chassis so output modules can display it. When you correct the condition and press the MESSAGE RESET button, the PM module sends the next highest priority message code if an error condition still exists. A message code of higher priority overrides a message code of lower priority. For error conditions of equal priority, the PM module sends the message code corresponding to the first detected condition.

Processing Diagnostic Message Codes

If you want to maintain a record of diagnostic message codes or process them for reasons other than display, you can write ladder logic to examine the 9-bit binary message code that PM modules return to the processor. Do this by examining bits in the input image table corresponding to:
module group 5, slot 1 (8-binary code) module group 3, slot 1, bit 2 (9
th
bit for micro-inch)
For example, examine a bit as follows:
I:r5 ||
16
where r is the I/O rack number
If recording a history of diagnostic message codes such as stored in a FIFO stack, we suggest that you record only diagnostic message codes that exist for longer than one second and disregard all diagnostic message codes resulting from transient conditions of shorter duration. This guards against storing no-fault status diagnostic message codes such as generated during start-up.

Diagnostic Message Codes (Table 7.C)

Table 7.C explains message codes generated by PM modules.
For each message code, the table states:
type of diagnostic message the problem causing the diagnostice message to be displayed recommended corrective action
In Table 7.C we use mnemonics for cam switches for the sake of brevity as follows:
ACAM: anti-repeat cam switch RCAM: run-on cam switch TCAM: sto-top-check cam switch
