Veeder Root V454502 Dual Preset Counter Technical Manual

Introduction

A new standard of performance and functionality in a compact preset counter. The V454502 Dual Preset Counter offers a pre-settable counter with full calibration for a variety of applications.
The bright red LED display provides simultaneous count and preset indication. The use of annunciators and simple key sequences makes operator changes quick and easy. A variety of count sources are accommodated, including relay and pushbutton contacts, photocells and proximity switches and uni- or bi-directional incremental encoders. The open collector output can interface to light duty devices and the relay contacts offer heavy duty load switching.
Set-up and installation are simplified through front panel entry of configuration parameters and a unique “no tools required” panel mounting bracket.
The V454500 family of preset counters combines state-of-the-art circuitry and electronic assembly techniques with an ergonomic package design that results in the most cost-effective , high-performance counter value on the market.

IMPORTANT: In severe electrical noise environments, shielded cable is recommended for inputs and outputs. Connect the shield only to the building earth (ground).

AC Power Input

Connect AC power to Terminal 7 (Line) via a 1A slow-blow fuse and to Terminal 8 (Neutral) - see below. AC power should be from a separate branch circuit which is noise-free and does not feed heavy loads.

DC/Low Voltage AC Power Input

Connect DC/low voltage AC power to Terminal 7 (+) via a 0.5A slow-blow fuse and to Terminal 8 (–) - see below. DC power should have low ripple and be noise-free.

Reset and Program Inputs

Current Sourcing (PNP) Count Inputs

Connect Add count input to Terminal 2 (A) and/or Subtract count input to Terminal 3 (B) - see below. In Configuration Mode, set PuLL parameter to no and, for Add/Subtract operation, set InPu parameter to A-B .
PNP Open Collector
Contact Closure
Current Source or Line Driver
Connect Reset pushbutton or current sink device to Reset (Terminal 5) and COM (Terminal 4). Connect Program switch or jumper to PGM (Terminal 6) and COM (Terminal 4).

Bi-directional Quadrature Inputs

Connect Quadrature Encoder to V+ (Terminal 1), A input (Terminal 2), B input (Terminal 3) and COM (Terminal 4) as shown below. In Configuration Mode, set InPu parameter to QuAd . For NPN open collector devices with no pullup resistors, set PuLL parameter to YES .

Current Sinking (NPN) Count Inputs

Connect Add count input to Terminal 2 (A) and/or Subtract count input to Terminal 3 (B) - see below. In Configuration Mode, set PuLL parameter to YES and, for Add/Subtract operation, set InPu parameter to A-B .

Panel Mounting

Make cut-out(s) according to the details in the diagram on the right. The maximum panel thickness is 6 mm.
Insert the rear of the Counter housing through the cut-out (from the front of the mounting panel) and hold the Counter lightly in position against the panel. Ensure that the panel gasket is not distorted and that the Controller is positioned squarely against the mounting panel. Apply pressure to the front panel bezel only. Slide the mounting bracket in place (see right) and push it forward until it is firmly in contact with the rear face of the mounting panel (tongues on the bracket should engage in matching rachet positions on the Counter housing and the mounting bracket springs should push firmly against the mounting panel rear face).

Down key

Operator Mode: Used to change the
currently-selected (flashing) digit. Depressing this key will decrement the value (wrap-around from 0 to 9). If the key is held continuously, the value will decrement at the rate of 2/sec.
Program Mode: Used to advance from
one parameter to the next. Once a parameter value has been selected for editing (through use of the Next key), depressing this key will decrement the value (wrap-around from 0 to 9). If the key is held continuously, the value will decrement at the rate of 2/sec.
Configuration Mode: Used to advance
from one parameter to the next.

ENT key

Operator Mode/Program Mode:
Confirms an edited value (display will
cease flashing after the ENT key is
depressed).
Configuration Mode: Confirms
setting/value selection (display will cease
flashing after the ENT key is depressed).

6. Reset Key

Next key

Operator Mode: Used to select a
parameter for editing (left-most digit will start to flash) and to move between the digits. Once the proper digit is selected (flashing) with the Next key, its value can be altered through use of the Down key.
Program Mode: Used to select a
parameter for editing (left-most digit will start to flash) and to move between the digits. Once the proper digit is selected (flashing) with the Next key, its value can be altered through use of the Down key. For Decimal Point Position, this key scrolls through the available choices.
Configuration Mode: Used to select a
parameter for editing and to scroll through available choices.

RST key

Operator Mode/Program Mode: Resets
count value to either zero or Preset value (based on the setting of the Count Direction parameter in Configuration Mode). Also releases latched outputs.
Configuration Mode: Exits
Configuration Mode when held down for 2 seconds.
NOTE: The RST key will not be active
unless enabled in Configuration Mode.
For information on Operator Mode, see Page 6. For information on Program Mode, see Page 7. For information on Configuration Mode, see Page 8.
The Operator Mode is used for viewing the

NOTE
To abort an edit operation (before the new value is confirmed), press the Down and Next keys together.
WARNING! Caution should be
observed if it is necessary to change the preset value while the process is operating. Do not set values which are already exceeded by the count value without resetting the counter.
Press the Next key to enter Edit Mode. The most significant digit of the Preset Data display will then flash. Press the Next key repeatedly as required to select the desired digit.
Press the Down key to change the value of the selected digit (there is wrap-round from 0 to 9).
When all digits are as required, press the ENT key to confirm the changes; the display will stop flashing.
IMPORTANT
You must press the ENT key within 15
seconds of the last keypress when entering a new value, otherwise the new value will be discarded and the old value will be retained.

WARNING! Changing Program
Mode parameter values while the process is operating may be hazardous to the operator and/or the controlled equipment. Use extreme caution and stop the process before attempting to change Program Mode parameter values.
IMPORTANT
You must press the ENT key to implement new parameter values.
To enter Program Mode, set the PGM input active (low) e.g. by tying it to COM. Whilst in Program Mode, the PGM indicator will be ON.
