Figure 4. Typical Smart Trac AC1 with keypad and LCD display.
An RS-232 port, also located on the face of the Smart Trac AC1, provides one
means to connect a personal computer to the unit (optional communications
cards providing other means).
Two types of controls exist on the Smart Trac AC1: DATA and CONTROL.
• The DATA group includes keys labeled MENU, UP, DOWN, RIGHT,
ESCAPE and DATA/ENTER. These keys allow setting or viewing of

data including parameters, feedbacks and selection and use of special
functions.
• The CONTROL group includes the keys labeled LOCAL/REMOTE,
JOG, FWD/REV, RUN and STOP. These keys provide control over
the operation of the Smart Trac AC1. Although labeled for "typical"
use, they may be programmed to operate differently. Consult the
documentation specific to your Smart Trac AC1.
Indicators
Indicators include seven status lights labeled DRIVE, FWD, REV,
REMOTE/SEQ and REMOTE/REF, RUN and STOP, and the LCD display
showing status, fault or parameter information. What causes these lights to be
triggered on or off is entirely up to the application program.
The behavior of each of these controls and indicators is described in tables and

Programmable.
Typically programmed to toggle between the Digital Operator and
Remote (terminal) modes of operation. Active only when Smart Trac
AC1 is in stopped condition.
Programmable.
Typically programmed to initiate Jog function while pressed and held
in drive mode. Smart Trac AC1 output goes to programmed Jog
Frequency to check motor operation, or to position the machine. When
key is released, output returns to zero and motor stops. If motor is
running, pressing this key will have no effect. May be programmed to
be disabled if Smart Trac AC1 is programmed to use an external JOG
input.
Typically programmed to toggle between motor run Forward and
Reverse with each press of key. Selected direction is indicated by
FWD or REV lights. If selection is made while Smart Trac AC1 is
stopped, it determines direction motor will run when started. If
selection is changed during running, Smart Trac AC1 will ramp motor
to zero speed and then ramp it up to set speed in opposite (i.e. newly
selected) direction.
Programmable.
Typically programmed to operate by external RUN and STOP signals
(as indicated by REMOTE SEQ lamp being lit). Pressing key will
produce a Run command to initiate Smart Trac AC1 output to motor.
However, output frequency will be zero if frequency reference is zero
at time key is pressed.
Programmable.
Typically programmed to produce a Stop command when key pressed.
Smart Trac AC1 will decelerate motor in programmed stopping
manner, then Smart Trac AC1 output will be disconnected from the
motor.
After power-up, displays top level of digital operator menu tree,
Numeric Parameters. At the topmost level of five menus, it moves
from menu to menu in the following order: Numeric Parameters,
Numeric Feedbacks, Logic Parameters, Logic Feedbacks, and Special
Functions.
If within a submenu, returns to the topmost menu, Numeric
Parameters.
Returns display to previous level in menu tree or to status before
pressing DATA/ENTER.

When the Smart Trac AC1 is powered-up, the text window of the digital
operator displays the message "Press the MENU key now…". Each press of the
MENU key displays the next menu. There are five menus: Numeric
Feedbacks, Numeric Parameters, Logic Feedbacks, Logic
Parameters, and Special Functions. Each menu contains sub-menus.
1. To get familiar with the menu structure:
2. Press the MENU key. The first menu, Numeric Parameters, appears.

You can read any of the newest or oldest faults on the digital operator:
1. Press MENU on the digital operator. The words Numeric Parameters appear, indicating you are in the Numeric Parameters
menu.
2. Press the MENU key again. The second menu, Numeric Feedbacks,
appears. Continue to press MENU through the Logic Parameters

5. Press DATA/ENTER. The first fault in the queue appears.
6. To review other faults, press the UP and DOWN arrow keys.
7. When done, press Menu to return to the top-level menu.
The digital operator shows any Smart Trac AC1 or program faults before any
other information. The first fault to occur is displayed. Once cleared, by
pressing any key on the digital operator, a second fault, if present, is displayed.
Clearing acknowledges that the operator has been notified of the fault. When a
fault is cleared, it is no longer annunciated, but is still active.
If a priority fault is cleared through the Smart Trac ARCNET LAN, it is
immediately removed from the local display on the digital operator.
A list of active faults may be viewed. The faults remain on this list until their
triggering condition is removed and >RESET is pressed.
Annunciated faults are also logged into the oldest and newest faults history lists.
These lists can be viewed. Pressing >RESET while viewing one of the history
lists will clear all the faults in that list.
Once active faults are reset, menu items will be displayed.
