Programming LOCON 7 and LOCON 9
At LOCON 9 idle times can be programmed bitwise, i. e. each output can be programmed with its
own idle time.
7.14.1 Program-dependent idle times
It is possible to program different idle times for different programs. To decrease the effort of pro-
gramming, an idle time which is programmed in the program 0, is interpreted as a default idle
time, that is valid for all other programs, provided that it is not programmed explicitly in this pro-
gram with another value.
If for instance an idle time of 10ms is programmed in the program 0 at the output 1 and one of
20ms is programmed in the program 1 at the output 1, then the idle time of program 0 is valid as
a default for all programs. Only in program 1 an idle time of 20ms is executed at the output 1.
ATTENTION: If an idle time was programmed in program 0, this idle time
can be changed in other programs, however, it cannot be deleted.
7.14.2 Programming or changing idle times
For programming idle times first of all a program and an output have to be selected (as already
described in the previous chapters).
If the desired output appears on the display ("Axx"), the idle time programming is activated by
pressing the key
(long), provided that the programming release by hardware took place.
Now the LEDs "Function" and "Prg.Mode" flash and the programmed idle time appears on the
display.
With the help of the keys
and
this time can be changed now. It must be considered that
this change also has a direct effect on the outputs.
This state can be left with the keys
or
, whereas
rejects the adjusted value and
restores the old value,
on the other hand stores the new value.
7.15 Clear all
A complete deletion of all custom-built data (cams, idle time,...) can be carried out through the
external operating front or an external TERM 5 as follows:
based on the programming of the rotational direction (see corresponding chapter) by pressing
the key
(long) the letters CA (for Clear All) appear on the display.
By pressing
subsequently the complete deletion is initiated, at which point “---“ is visible on
the display during the deletion. After the complete deletion the device is automatically restarted.
7.16 Inverting the rotational direction of the absolute encoder
The rotational direction of the connected encoder can be programmed by software. In the
device’s state of delivery the rotational direction is not inverted.
The display and programming of the inversion of the rotational direction takes place as follows:
