Hardware configuration

The hardware is as follows:

TSX PSY 5500 double format power supply,
TSX P57 204 double format processor,
TSX CCY 1128 electronic cam module (in slot 3, rack 0),

Procedure

The stages are as follows:

Step	Action
1	Select the TSX CCY 1128 module at its position n°3 in rack n°0. Double-click on the module. Result: the module hardware configuration screen appears:
2	The Configuration tab is selected. Double-click with the left button on Acquisition in the browser
3	Select For the Input interface: Incremental encoder. For the Measurement Format: Type 1. For the position Recalibration on Irec: Short cam Confirm with the toolbar button.
4	Click on the Adjust tab. Double-click with the left button on Acquisition in the Browser. Confirm with the toolbar button.
5	Configure 1024 for No. of pulses/cycle.
6	Click on the Configuration tab. Confirm. Click with the right button on Connector 0. Unlock.
7	Click on the Adjust tab. Confirm with yes. Double-click with the left button on Connector 0. Double-click with the left button on Group 0. Click with the right button on track 0. Activate. Click with the right button on track 0. Create Cam ... Select 0. Confirm with OK.
8	Double-click with the left button on cam 0. Result: the parameter adjustment screen appears.
9	Configure for ThresholdX1:200, and for ThresholdX2: 500 Select for Cam monitoring (in the Enable conditions): Conditioned by an enable bit for the Activation Condition: Forward Enable the configuration entered with the toolbar button.

The configuration gathers together the data which characterizes the machine (invariant) and which is necessary for the TSX CCY 1128 module to operate.

All this information is stored in the PLC %KW constants zone. The PLC application cannot modify them.

Module functions that are used to calculate the position reading of the machine.

Pulse generator with 2 signals offset by 90°. These are produced according to the movement of the axis and are counted by the module.

This is the module function which is used to adjust the axis in relation to the machine zero or to synchronize the axis in relation to the arrival of a part.

Recalibration forces the position reading to a value which is predefined by the "recalibration value" parameter (included in the pulse field of the cycle).

The module allows recalibration to be carried out systematically for each cycle or for only one cycle. This recalibration is always conditioned to the IREC input.

The recipe groups together the data required for the module to control the machine for a series of parts. The recipe can be modified or completely changed by the PLC application. All this information is contained in the PLC %MW words in the memory zone reserved for the module.

This is the logic state which can be applied to the physical output. The maximum number of tracks is 32.
