Configure the QDC Module's
Inputs and Outputs
Your QDC module needs to know the characteristics of your clamp and
ejector sensors. In this chapter, we describe how to determine these
characteristics and download them to the QDC module. Topics include:
signal ranges from pressure and position sensors
minimum and maximum sensor signals corresponding to
minimum and maximum pressures and positions
alarm values and travel limits
We describe how to configure the QDC module in these sections:
select module parameters and I/O ranges
determine initial sensor configuration values
download configuration values to the QDC module
use the set-output operation to move the clamp and ejector
complete sensor configuration
optional sensor configurations
Important: You must properly configure the QDC module using
procedures in this chapter before attempting further configurations.
Important: If you have not already done so, install Pro-Set 600 software.
The procedures in this and the next several chapters assume that you have.
