CONNECTION OF THE PROG. CONT.
The parallel interface is the most important connection
be-tween the machine (controller) and the text display
LCA 042. All significant functions of the LCA 042 are
performed via this interface. These functions are:
- invoking the message texts (max. 200)
- invoking the message variants (functions)
- entering external variables
All inputs are high-active (Ri = 2.6k
Ω
)
BIN
0... 199
BCD
0... 199
= coded message number
CLOCK
= 1. invoke additional messages
2. display external variables on text display
3. invoke further messages
(at first message)
TEXT/VARIABLE
= switch between message text and
external variable
DIRECT/SEQUENTIAL
= switch between direct message and first
message (sequential display)
The connection to the programmable controller is made
via industrial adapter LCA 020 or round cable LCA 038.
Text display LCA 042 distinguishes between PROGRAM-
MING and OPERATION. During programming operation of
the LCA 042 is not possible.
Before the LCA 042 is put into operation the following
preparations must be made:
1. initialize
2. store message texts
3. determine positions of variables by means of place
holders
