D. ENABLE OUPUT (J52)TB2-15)
This output must be tied to a solid state relay to interfact to the ouside world. The solid
state relay must have a D.C. coil and should have a rating of 3-30 VDC. The Rapid-Air
#69100165 is recommended for this application. This output is high whenever the
enabled input is activated.
E. END OF FEED OUTPUT (J52)TB2-13)
This output must be tied to a solid state relay to interface to the outside world. The
solid state relay must have a D.C. coil and should have a rating of 3-30 VDC. The
Rapid-Air #69100165 is recommended for this application. This output goes high at
the end of every feed and stays high for programmed amount of time before going low.
To program the time, with the main screen menu displayed, push the period on the
keypad - follow the instructions and enter the time in milli-seconds. The time entered
will add to the total feed cycle time and if programmed to last longer than the time from
the actual end of feed and the actual tripping of the feed switch then the program will
not see the feed switch being tripped. You will then get two hits per feed.
F. AUTOMATIC OUTPUT (J52)TB2-11
This output must be tied to a solid state relay to interface to the outside world. The
solid state relay must have a D.C. coil and should have a rating of 3-30 VDC. The
Rapid-Air #69100165 is recommended for this application. This output goes high
whenever automatic is selected on the program panel. Any faults will cause the
automatic ouput to go low.
G. STANDARD PROGRAM- DATA INSTRUMENTS INTERFACE (J52)TB1-14)
With the jumper in place, the standard program is active. Remove jumper, recycle
power and the Data Instruments program is active. Only the manual mode will work
with the keys at this time.
H. KEYPAD AND DISPLAY INTERFACE (RS232 PORT)
The keypad/display is the interface between the operator and the resident program.
The Pacific Scientific drive is purchased with a great many capabilities, none of which
can be used unless a program is written to utilize these capabilities. Rapid-Air put a
great deal of time making a program that is user friendly and yet gets the job done
efficiently. We took all the questions and constructive criticism and came up with a
program that would cover all the applications, yet be easy to interface and program by
a customer.
If an operator reads the programming procedure in this manual and then reads the
screen parameters listed as they are displayed and acts on them by inputting data as
needed, the servo can be up and running in a very short time.
1. Select a job number.
2. Input or review parameter for that job number.
3. Thread up material in manual mode.
4. If properly interfaced, go into automatic mode.
