INTRODUCTION
Motors
A wide range of Allen-Bradley F-Series, H-Series, N-Series and W-Series permanent magnet synchro-
nous motors are available for use with the PDM modules plus the I-6600 induction motor. Each motor
includes an integrally mounted encoder. Most motors are available with options including spring set
brake and/or shaft oil seal. The synchronous motors have a rear shaft available for mounting optional
feedback devices. MS style wiring connectors are standard for all S-Series and F-Series motors.
Operator Terminal
The optional Operator Terminal is a rugged man/machine interface device. It allows the machine opera-
tor convenient access to status information, program variables, and control functions, plus message dis-
play capabilities. The operator terminal has a bright 4 line by 20 character vacuum fluorescent display
and a sealed membrane keyboard with tactile feedback.
The operator terminal displays multiple status screens for monitoring and diagnostics. Four soft func-
tion keys are available to perform up to twenty-four (24) predefined functions, which include selecting
and running a program, jogging the system, stopping a program, and more. The user program may dis-
play messages and prompts on the screen, and receive input from the operator terminal keypad to enter
program variables such as distances, speeds, batch counts, and others. Four additional user programma-
ble keys provide extra flexibility within a user program.
Personality Module (PM)
The Personality Module is a nonvolatile memory device which stores the information necessary to cus-
tomize an ULTRA Plus or IQ-Series controller for a specific application. The PM holds parameters to
match the motor and the controller, as well as user programs and parameters. A Personality Module may
be physically removed and transferred to another ULTRA Plus or IQ-Series controller if the replace-
ment of a controller is necessary to simplify servicing the machine. The Personality Module data can
also be saved in a computer file and loaded into the ULTRA Plus or IQ using the File, Transfer, dialog
box.
Manuals
The manuals are conveniently broken into two volumes. The appropriate ULTRA Plus or IQ-Series
Installation Manual (1398-5.1, Part Number 0013-1027-004 or Part Number 0013-1022-004) contains
all the information required for mounting and wiring the system. This manual contains all the informa-
tion that a user and programmer require to quickly set up, and develop programs for the controller.
Option Cards
Each ULTRA Plus or IQ-Series controller can have an option card (not pictured) mounted on its main
circuit board, inside the cover. The controller has a connector which connects the option card to the
power supplies and microprocessor through a ribbon cable. The option cards currently available include
a Memory and I/O Expansion Card and an I/O Expansion Card.
