You can add a new connection object by choosing Line from the menu. Creation Symbol: Data type: Depending on the object, connections can operate with all data types. Function: The line connects the output of an object to the input of another object. It’s important for the connection that you have the correct direction of the arrow. Mind the direction of the arrow The arrowhead has always to be next to the input of the following object. Example: Wrong! The connection was created the wrong way, since the arrowhead points at the output of the digital input. Take a look at the correct version: Right! www.hiquel.com 41 HIQUEL SLS-500-Configurator Create connections When you click on the connection object, you will see coloured rectangles on both ends: If the rectangles are green, the ends are free and are not linked with an object. Now move the cursor to one of the ends and left-click the arrow. Hold the mouse key and drag the line to an object. You will notice that small blue symbols appear on the object that you drag the line to and that the line snaps to the nearest blue symbol. Select a suitable blue symbol and release the mouse key. The selected symbol turns from green too red. This is confirmation of a correct connection.

The Incremental Encoder An Incremental Encoder transmits signals over two wires. These are called channel A and channel B. The speed of the incremental encoder in which the impulses are sent, is called “Line”. To process the data in the SLS-500 requires a procedure, which transforms the impulses to a position. This procedure is called „4-times evaluation“, or “quadrature control”. 24 V B 0 24 V A 0 t www.hiquel.com 117 HIQUEL SLS-500-Configurator In the diagram A and B represent the two channel inputs from an Encoder. The „quadrature control“ gives information about the direction and the actual position of the encoder. e. g. The encoder has a resolution of 1000 lines, then it is sending 1000 A impulses and 1000 B impulses per revolution. The SLS-500 is converting this into 4000 impulse internally, A and B rising edge and A and B falling edge impulses. Therefore SLS-500 processes 1 encoder revolution into 4000 impulses NOTE The HIQUEL-SLS-500-Base controller can process 5000 edges per second maximum, combined Di´s 5-8 (2 encoders) Programming an incremental encoder In SLS-500-Configurator, encoders are initialised on a binary system variable which is set to 1 using a bit-constant. This binary system-variable must only have the name „ENCODER_XY“ This is case sensitive. Select System from the menu “Flow > System. The following box will appear: www.hiquel.com 118 HIQUEL SLS-500-Configurator From the list select „System binary Memory“ and in the box type „ENCODER_XY“ then click OK. Symbol: const const 11 Data type: ENCODE ENCODER_XY R_XY Bit When the binary-system-variable is initialised, you must set the analogue-system-variable „ENCODER_X“ and „ENCODER_Y“ to 0 to delete them. In contrast to „ENCODER_XY“ this is not a binary-system-variable but an analogue-system-variable. The input is case sensitive. (ENCODER_X, ENCODER_Y) Here they are set to 0: 00 ENCODER_X ENCODE R_X 00 ENCODER_Y ENCODE R_Y The value of a incremental encoder could also be stored in an analogue memory: ENCODE R_X MyVar1 ENCODER_X MyVar1 An incremental-encoder could also be set to a certain value: MyVar1 MyVar1 www.hiquel.com ENCODE ENCODER_X R_X 119 HIQUEL SLS-500-Configurator I/O Group I/O contains all functions, which deal with the pasting of digital or analogue inputs or outputs.

The function of a PID-Controller is to compare an actual value with a predefined value or with a value that is required to change according to time. If there is a difference between these two values, a proportional signal is generated which is used to reduce or eliminate the difference h(t) SOLL IST Proportional – effect Zeit/t Integral – effect Differential – effect Transmission-function of a PID – controller Different controlled materials react at different rates to heat change, this is why the controller should not change the proportional effect suddenly.
