OPTIMIZER
The hand-held programmer provides a simple means of
optimizing the contra of the equipment. The sixteen (16)
function, membrane keypad, in conjunction with a two (2)
line liquid crystal display (LCD) of sixteen characters each,
connects to the SUPERFLEX Controller via a pluggable
terminal strip. The OPTIMIZER performs the following
functions:
1. Optimizes - Changes/modifies the operating param-
eters for each joystick handle direction.
2. Tests - Checks the SUPERFLEX Controller’s opera-
tions from end-to-end (self-test). Inputs, outputs and
internal functions are tested to verify proper operat-
don.
3. Displays - All operational settings, conditions and
test results.
4. Collects - Information for later evaluation.
5. Downloads - Allows the Superflex Controller to be
programmed.
6. Interfaces - Facilitates the communications path
between the SUPERFLEX and a personal computer.
General Description
Inputs are under software control. Their functions can
change depending on what software is employed. In a
typical application, the DIGISENSOR operated by a joy-
stick connected to Input (terminals 1 and 2), produces a
proportional PWM output on (terminals 13 and 14). The
DIGISENSOR connected to Input (terminals 3 and 4), pro-
duces a proportional PWM output on (terminals 15 and
16). Inputs #3 and 4 can be used to further condition out-
puts depending on the software programmed into the
SUPERFLEX.
The SUPERFLEX controller has an eighteen (18) point ter-
minal strip. Terminals 1 through 12 are for "inputs and
power" and terminals 13 through 17 are used for outputs.
In a typical application, a DIGISENSOR operated by a joy-
stick, is connected to terminals 1 and 2 (Input Signal #1).
Another DIGISENSOR is corrected to terminals 3 and 4
input Signal #2). The Input Signal #1 produces a propor-
tional PWM output on terminals 13 or 14, and Input Signal
#2 produces a proportional PWM output on terminals 15
or 16.
Additional inputs can be connected to allow for "applica-
tion specific functions". A "toggle switch", when wired to
terminals 7 and 10, can produce a Hi/Low Range "PWM
Output" at terminals 13 or 14. Also, an additional toggle
switch wired to terminals 9 and 10 can similarly produce a
Hi/Low Range at terminals 15 or 16. Terminal 17 produces
a +12VDC output whenever an input is turned on. Termi-
nal 17 can be used to advance a throttle or dump valve.
