I. INTRODUCTION:
This control is a solid state electronic control that receives signal from a Dancer pivot point sensor or 2 Load cells and transmits internally the appropriate signals to the brake power driver to regulate a stable tension. It integrates 2 separate Digital PID controllers and 2 separate Open Loop control. Based on a double board architec­ture, it can integrate a Driver board to control our electromagnetic brakes range. In that particular case, all communi­cation, Input/Output and power signal of the driver board will be made thru an internal connector. All parameters could be saved to an integrated memory and to an SD Card, but can also be uploaded or downloaded thanks to its external communication bus (USB). In case of Load Cell application, when the setpoint needs to be modied, an optional handset is available.

II. GENERAL INFORMATION
Control chassis should be kept clear of all areas where foreign material, dust, grease, or all might affect the opera­tion of the control. Installation must be made in accordance with the instructions found in this manual. Failure to do so may damage the Controller. Throughout this manual the PID board will be called the XCTRL board and the Driver board will be called the X2DRV board.

V. XCTRL- 2DRV
When working with the XCTRL-2DRV, no wiring between the XCTRL and the X2DRV control board are needed.
In fact, the power supply as well as the connections between the analog outputs (OUT1 & OUT2) of the XCTRL and the analog inputs of the X2DRV (InBK1 & InBK2) control boards are internally made.
If more information is needed on the standalone X2DRV control, please refer to the ‘X2DRV Installation and Operation Manual’
VI. System wiring and setting
WARNING: Contact with electrical voltages present in the controller covered in this manual can cause injury. To avoid these consequences, make sure all power is off during installation.
These wiring precautions will help you properly install and wire a trouble-free system.
1. Use proper gauge wire for all pin:
- Data input: 0,5mm² (20 AWG) or 0,75mm² (18 AWG)
- Brakes wires: 0,75mm² (18 AWG) or 1mm² (17 AWG)
2. Shielded cable is recommended for all connections
3. Do not use this controller for purposes other than those intended. Such use could damage the controller
1. Typical Wiring
Figure 3: XCTRL Typical Wiring
2. Operation Principle
The closed Loop controls are usually made with using two types of sensors: the dancer arm and the load cell. The XCTRL controller supports both. These two sensors provide a voltage signal proportional to the web ten­sion. This signal is interpreted and the web tension is adjusted accordingly by braking thru one of the integrat­ed PID controller.
Load Cell Applicaiton:

5. Power Supply Wiring
Wire 24VDC input power to pin 24V as shown below:
CAUTION: Improperly setting the
24VDC can damage the power supply and/or the controller
Figure 9: Power supply wiring
6. Wiring with an X2DRV
If you don’t have an XCTRL-2DRV and you want to get a closed loop control, the XCTRL can be associated with the X2DRV. For all detail about the driver refer to the X2DRV Installation & Operation manual. The XCTRL output and the X2DRV Input are selectable (0-10V or 4-20mA). To wire the XCTRL with an X2DRV follow the procedure below:
Note: 2 Channels available (Out1, Out2, InBK1, InBK2)
Figure 10: XCTRL & X2DRV wiring
Note: When the XCTRL is associated with an X2DRV (XCTRL-2DRV), power supply, input and communica­tion are made by an internal connector. No connection extra connection between the controller and the driver is needed.
7. (Optional) Auxiliary analog sensor wiring
Two auxiliary sensor inputs are available. They can both be programmed in 0-10Vdc or 4-20mA type Inputs. They can also be used with the PID or the Open Loop Controllers input, refer to section 4.d and/or 4.h para­graph II/ Software Installation and Setting. The most popular use is to have them coupled to a roll diameter sensor in order to compensate the PID Gain during unwinding

VII. XCTRL CONFIGURATION
1. XCTRL Congurator language Selection
Two languages are available: English and French. To select a language click on the main rolling menu and select the desired language. By default French is selected.
2. Partition Setting
The set of parameters is called a partition. With recording and writing a partition you can easily check and modify all parameters of the controller. With Saving or Opening a partition you are allowed to transfer all pa­rameters from a computer or to a computer to backup or to email them for instance. The active partition can also be selected by using the P1, P2, P3 inputs.
By default P1, P2, P3 are set to 0, giving then the partition 0 active when no wiring is made and thus inde­pendently of the NPN or PNP input mode selection.

1. Input Selection and Setting
• Cells / Dancer Input
In this tab you can select the active input and set-up it. Select your input with the drop down menu. Depending of the Input type the excitation and the input voltage will be changed Two analog inputs are available. Each input can support either a dancer arm (BTCS620 or BTCS 254-06/10) or a load cell. Both can be amplied or not.
• Calibration
Once the input type selected, it’s necessary to teach the Input voltage span with a calibration. The calibration differs from one type to another: In dancer arm type, Min and Max position needs to be taught when, in load cell type Min position is only taught and Max position voltage needs to be entered manually.
- Dancer arm calibration:
Dancer arm: Min position: Voltage corresponding to the Max braking forces
Max position: Voltage corresponding to the Min braking forces
1) Put the Dancer Arm to Min position, press Min on the software: Min is learnt automatically and displayed
2) Put the Dancer Arm to Max position, press Max on the software: Max is learnt automatically and displayed
3) Click on ‘Write Current to XCtrl Partition P1P2P3’ button to store these parameters into the integrated memory
18 Warner Electric • +33 (0) 2 41 21 24 24
P-2097-WE-A4
- Load Cell (Amplied & Not Amplied) calibration:
In load cell Mode, the max voltage needs to be calculated depending of the load cell type, the mechanical integration into the customer application and the max resultant load put on the cell. To help you please ask the WARNER Electric the load cell calculation spreadsheet.
1) Put the Load Cell to Min, press Min on the software: Min is learnt automatically and displayed
2) Set Max manually (according to the load cell)
3) ) Click on ‘Write Current to XCtrl Partition P1P2P3’ button to Save these parameters
- Filtering & inverting the input.
In case of noisy applications, the vibrations can cause the PID control to ‘compensate’ the noise. To avoid this behavior, it’s possible to add an extra ltering which is going to reduce the noise processed by the controller. To activate this lter :
1) Click on the ‘XCTRL’ button in the main menu and on ‘Enable/Disable Advanced mode’. Two tick box are appearing below the calibration menu. The rst allow you to invert the input and the second to lter it.
2) Tick the ‘Active lter’ box. A ‘Duration tab’ is appearing offering you the possibility to enter your desired ltering time.
A ‘Invert Input’ button appears also, allowing you to invert the input if needed. In case of inversion,
the calibration of the input needs to be redone.
• Range Denition
To facilitate the value comprehension and the display, a logical range can be set-up, with selected its Unit, Min and Max range Span and its Error threshold.
- Chose the working Unit (%, Kg, Nm …): any kinds of characters are allowed. No conversion calculations are processed. This parameter is only for display purpose to facilitate the comprehension of the input.
- Working Range: this is the “logical range” in which the controller will process all its data. This has the advantage to facilitate the human interfacing, with having both human and controller talks the same “language”, actually the same unit. Set-up is according to your application data.
- Error threshold: these Min and Max values are dening the error threshold out of which the controller is emitting an Error signal. Once the Sensor/load cell measured value is below or over these thresholds, the XCTRL is triggering the Error Sense signals (ErrS1 or ErrS2). ErrS1 is linked to the Cell/Dancer 1 Input when ErrS2 is linked to the Cell/ Dancer 2 Input.
Warner Electric • +33 (0) 2 41 21 24 24 P-2097-WE-A4 19
4. PID Setting
The PID tab is dening all PID controller parameters: PID Input selection, PID Automatic and linear compensation, PID gains. The setpoint as well as the Stop Integral (StpInt) behavior can be also set-up in this menu.
• Select the Input
With the drop down menu, it could be a dancer arm, one load cell or two load cells. The input could be an auxiliary sensor wired on Ana 1 or 2.
• Set up the SetPoint
Depending of the unit previously programmed the SetPoint’s unit changes.
• Enter the Gains
With the drop down menu, you can directly enter the gain value or increase it one by one. Gains are needed for the Proportional, Integral and Derival correction
• Compensation
Depending of the application it’s sometimes useful to implement a PID Compensation. The compensation is usually needed when the difference between the maximum and the minimum diameter of the roller exceed a 10 factor. Two compensation types are available: an automatic compensation and an external linear compensation.
- Automatic compensation: with the automatic compensation, no external sensor is needed. The PID controller is adjusting automatically its gain between the Big and Small roller diameter gains entered.
20 Warner Electric • +33 (0) 2 41 21 24 24
P-2097-WE-A4
- Linear compensation: to adjust its gain between the Big and the Small roller diameter, an external sensor is needed. This sensor will measure the roller diameter and will need to be wired to the Ana1 or Ana2 Inputs. These Inputs will need to be calibrated before being selected and used as compensation. In linear compensation the external compensation input (Ana1 or Ana2) will be selected through the Splice menu of “splice” tab. Due to the fact that in most of the applications the sensor is mechanically linked to the roller, it’s obvious that the analog compensation input needs to be changed when splicing. Please refer to the splice menu for selecting the correct Input versus the splice selection.
Set the compensation type with the drop down menu.
• Stop Integral (StpInt)
On machine’s stops, it’s necessary to stop the integral calculation of the PID controller. The main advantage of doing so is a faster machine restart. This function allows you to stop the integral calculation by two different ways: reset or freeze. A reset will force the integral to zero and a freeze will stop the integral to its current state. The Stop Integral function is controlled by the StpInt Pin. As an input, its activation can be selected as NPN or PNP type in the Input/Output tab.
Warner Electric • +33 (0) 2 41 21 24 24 P-2097-WE-A4 21
5. Splice Selection and Hold Out Conguration
This menu allows the user to set-up the roll’s change/splice. Depending on the A, B, C, Sync Inputs state, a PID controller’s output (an Open Loop or a dened level) can be directed to different outputs to control another driver channel, so another brake/roll. The splice activation is linked to the A B C Sync input setup. Their activation can differ depending on their type : NPN or PNP. Please refer to the Input/ Output Conguration tab for more information.
When the PID is running in Linear compensation mode, a drop down menu is displayed to select the desired compensation input (Ana1, or Ana2).
22 Warner Electric • +33 (0) 2 41 21 24 24
P-2097-WE-A4
• Splice Selection
In this tab you can set up a conguration of OUT1, OUT2 between a logical menu of 11 possibilities. Please follow the below procedure :
Warner Electric • +33 (0) 2 41 21 24 24 P-2097-WE-A4 23
• Hold Out / Max out
Some more congurations are available for the “Max out” and the “hold out” levels. “Max Out” allows you to set up the max voltage or current delivered by the Outputs.
The “hold out” feature is a procedure which is commonly used to stop a roll after splicing. This procedure applies the “Max out” level during a certain time and switches automatically to the “hold out” level when this time is over. Both “hold out level” and “Hold out delay” can be set with the application.
How to setup a Hold out? :
1) Enter “Max Out” Level
2) Enter “Hold Out” Level
3) Enter “Hold Out Delay”: Out1/2 will be set at “Max Out” Level during this delay

P-2097-WE-A4
6. Input/Output Conguration
The “Input/Output” tab allows you to set-up the XCTRL Input/Outputs depending of your application requirements. The XCTRL is able to handle two types of digital Input/Output : the NPN and the PNP type. This hardware set-up denes the activation level of the splice Inputs (A,B,C,Sync), of the partition inputs (P1, P2, P3), as well as the Digital (ErrS1, ErrS2) and Analog (Out1, Out2) outputs.
This conguration menu will affect the correct behavior of all Input/Output of the XCTRL. So care must be taken with it!
Note: All states of the inputs and outputs are displayed in the Real Time window and Input/Output window. Please refer to the Diagnostic tools tab for more information.
• Digital Input settings
Select in this tab the polarity type for A, B, C StpInt and P1, P2, P3 inputs. Two kind of polarity (1L) are available: PNP (24V) and NPN (0V) :
- PNP: Logical active State : 1L = 24V. The low state 0L will be at 0V or GND.
- NPN: Logical active State : 1L = 0V. The low state 0L will be at 24V.
For all digital inputs, the polarity selection is common to all partitions. So any changes to a partition will be automatically copied and pasted to all other partitions.
The “Sync Input” drop down menu allows the selection of the “Latch mode” of the ABC Inputs. When “Sync Input” becomes active, the state of all ABC Inputs is transferred into the controller and processed.

• Sync Input Activation
Active on 1L, active on 0L, active on falling edge or active on rising edge. For each kind of activation a diagram is displayed on the software to explain its working.
• Digital Output (ErrS1, ErrS2) settings
The ErrS1 and ErrS2 outputs are used to inform the external application (PLC, Computer,…) that the corresponding Cell/Dancer Input is out of range. The “Error Range” is dened in the tab “Cell/Dancer”. The polarity selection is like described above and can be chosen between NPN and PNP.
• The Analog output (Out1, Out2) settings
The Analog output (Out1, Out2) of the controller can be both controlled in voltage (0-10Vdc) or in current (4-20mA), the selection is straight forward (below picture). On top of that, some absolute voltage/current levels can be set. These levels will overdrive all logical levels which can be processed by the PID controller or others.
7. Auxiliary Sensor Setting (Ana Input)
This tab allows you to setup both auxiliary inputs: Ana1 or Ana2. Both inputs can be set in voltage (0-10Vdc) and in current (4-20mA).

• Auxiliary Analog Input Type
Select between 0-10Vdc or 4-20mA
Note: Tick this box to invert the Analog Input
• Auxiliary sensor calibration
For a good behavior, it’s a mandatory to calibrate the voltage/current span of these inputs. Please follow the below procedure to do so:
1) Put the Auxiliary sensor to Min, press Min on the software: Min is learnt
2) Put the Auxiliary sensor to Max, press Max on the software: Max is learnt

8. Open Loop Conguration
The XCTRL also integrates two open loop controls. The aim of these controls is to add a linear compensation curve and/or a simple gain factor. The Input can be a load cell, a dancer arm or other analog sensors (e.g. Ultrasonic Sensor).
• Select the Input
Note: For all information about control Pinout and Wiring please refer to the Typical Wiring section.
• Two types of correction are available: Linear curve and X Factor. Both can also be combined.
Linear Curve Out = A*In + B In = Input voltage selected above A = Curve Gain (could be negative) B = Offset
Note: The Out level will not exceed 100% of the span dened in the Input/Output tab.
X Factor Out = X Factor*In In = Input voltage selected above or A*In+B

9. Diagnostic tools
This tab is giving access to 2 diagnostic windows. The rst one, named ‘Real time information’, gives an overview of all inputs and outputs state, including the splice selection (A, B, C, Sync), the Stop integral (StpInt), the partition selection (P1, P2, P3), the error state (ErrS1, ErrS2), and offers also a real time oscilloscope allowing to see all inputs, outputs variations. The second, named ‘Input/output’ echoes back the voltage or current applied to all pins.
