Hardware Description

The previous chapter described how the servo positioning assembly fits
into a positioning system as part of a programmable controller. This
chapter describes specific hardware of the servo positioning assembly and
lists its specifications. This chapter also describes other hardware items
you need for a positioning system.

There are three indicators on the 1771-M3 controller. With the PC
processor operating in the run mode, the indicators have the following
functions:

Processor Communication Fault - This red indicator turns on

when the module detects a fault in the communication
between it and the PC processor. The I/O adapter module or
PC processor will not detect this as a fault.

Expander Communication Fault - This red indicator turns on

when the module detects a fault in the communication
between it and a 1771-ES expander.

Active - This green indicator is normally on. It turns off

when a hardware fault is detected on a 1771-ES expander. it
blinks if you have not properly configured the modules.

There are six indicators on the 1771-ES expander. With the PC processor
operating in the run mode, the indicators have the following functions:

Module Active - This green indicator is on when the module

is operating normally.

Marker - This green indicator is on when the channel A,

channel B, and marker signals are true simultaneously.

Home - This green indicator is on when the axis is in the

home position.

Tach Calibrate - This green indicator is used in setting the

adjustments for loss of feedback detection.

Hardware Stop - This red indicator goes on when the

hardware stop input opens. It stays on until the input closes
and the servo expander module is reset.

Diagnostic - This red indicator goes on when a fault is

detected at the servo expander module.
