Load Initial Configuration Values
This chapter helps you determine, enter, and download configuration
setpoints required to tune the QDC module. You will refer to this chapter
frequently when tuning the QDC module in chapter 9.
We give you information to:
assign outputs for control valves
select the type of PID algorithm
set values for Expert Response Compensation
determine set-output values for profiles
set accel/decel ramp rates
determine set-output values for end of profiles
set pressure control limits
set velocity control limits
set profile tuning constants and pressure alarm setpoints
Then you:
determine initial values
record values on worksheets
enter them in your PLC-5 data table
download them to the QDC module
Important: We already entered on the worksheets most initial values
required for chapter 9. Your objective is to become familiar with how to:
determine setpoint values as described in text
enter and download values in preparation for tuning the machine in
chapter 9
Important: Before starting this chapter, you should have previously:
spanned your sensors and moved the ram (screw) and clamp (chapter 3)
jogged the ram (screw) and clamp (chapter 5)
