D. GAG OUPUTS (J53-6 to J53-9) & (J54-2 to J54-5)
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 is high
whenever the enabled input is activated. If using DC coils then 3-30 VDC sink, max
100 MA, per output.
E. END OF FEED OUTPUT (J54-6)
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 duration before going low.
F. AUTOMATIC OUTPUT (J54-7)
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 low
whenever automatic is selected on the program panel. Any faults will cause the
automatic ouput to go high.
G. KEYPAD AND DISPLAY INTERFACE (RS 232 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.
H. GAG CHECK INPUTS (J55-7&8) & (J56-1 to 6)
All inputs must be tied to only dry contacts.
J56-8 hook to a switch that is mounted on the press. When this switch is tripped, the
program will check that the inputs and outputs match only if the J56-7 input is shorted.
J56-7 short this input to wire #8 when inputs are to be used to verify that output devices
have functioned.
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.
