Cam processor configuration

About us
Role
This operation defines the cam processor performance and the module outputs on a fault.
Procedure
The following table describes the operations to be performed:
Step
Action
1
In the browser, click on cam processor.
Result:
2
Select the type of output reactivation: Manual or Automatic.
When an overcurrent is detected on an output, it is tripped, and it can be reactivated:
  • Manually: it can be done from the debug screen or via the application.
  • Automatically: performed automatically, 10 seconds after tripping.
3
Select the behavior of the cam processor module on a communication fault between the PLC processor and the electronic cam module.
See table below.
4
Select the behavior of the cam processor on a short-circuit fault:
  • box not selected or default selection: the cam processor is stopped if an output becomes faulty.
  • ignored by the processor : tripping one of the track outputs does not stop the cam processor.
Behavior of the module on a communication fault
The behavior of the module on a communication fault between the PLC processor and the electronic cam module is summarized in the following table:
Check boxes selected
Cam processor state
State of the logic outputs
None
change to stop
set to 0
Processor offline
normal operation, (remains in RUN)
set to 0
Remanence of direct commands
change to stop
same as the last direct commands transmitted by the PLC processor;
Processor offline and Remanence of direct commands
normal operation, (remains in RUN)
or logic between:
  • the state of the associated tracks (or the reverse if inversion is requested in the adjustment parameter)
  • the last direct commands transmitted by the PLC processor
The actual state of a physical output is equal to the logic state of the output, or its reverse if inversion has been requested in the connector configuration.
