Function
3 .9 Outputs
Various, independent signalling functions can be as-
signed to the two outputs RO 1 and RO 2: closed posi-
tion, low position, middle position and high position,
fault signals and freely programmable positions.
2 relays with change-over contacts are available for sig-
nalling. The contacts are floating and are thus referred
to as dry contacts. They can be integrated in automa-
tion processes.
For instance, reaching the preset position can be sig-
nalled back as a signal function. The range in which the
output switches can be defined in BCSoft using the
relational operator. The range may be =,
≥
or
≤
the set
position. Thus, for instance, the behaviour of a cam disk
can be simulated.
Example for output 1 (RO 1): if the condition is met, the
output relay is energized. Terminals 10 and 12 are con-
nected, see page 53 (Connection diagram).
The switching range can also be set individually via one
minimum value and one maximum value. These set-
tings are independent of the selected low position, mid-
dle position or high position.
A feedback signal can also be used as a fault signal. In
BCSoft, it is possible to select what status is to lead to
setting of the output (relay energized).
Device defective:
An internal error, such as a fault in the memory chip,
leads to failure of the device.
Internal warning (reference switch):
Internal monitoring of the motor position has detected
a fault. Recalibrate!
Internal temperature > 90°C:
Warning! Attach heat deflectors.
Service note:
Number of cycles, changes of direction or relay switch-
ing operations greater than limit.
“Fault signals” also covers a “Device in Manual mode”
signal even though the signal is not actually a fault sig-
nal.
The precise cause of the signal is displayed in BCSoft
and saved in the statistics, see page 52 (Statistics).
The feedback signal of the IC 40 must not be used on
its own for fail-safe signalling of a status or a fail-safe
position, see page 60 (Project planning information).
