7.4.7 Sample Sequencer Program
A machine is required to run in the forward direction at 50 Hz for one hour, then quickly decelerate
to a stop. While stopped, a digital output must be enabled to sound an alarm to an operator. After two
minutes, the machine must accelerate in the reverse direction to 5 Hz until a limit switch is activated.,
causing the drive to decelerate to a stop. The following three sequential states can be programmed
using only the drive:
First, since two of the sequential states are time-based, the proper setting of the “Seq Appl”
parameter must be determined. Since there is not time required that has resolution needed of less than
one second, the “1 sec Base” option is the easiest to use. If greater resolution is needed (for example,
if a state needed to last for 2.5 seconds), another option should be chosen.
As the sequence needs a digital input and a digital output, two non-sequencer parameters must be
used. Set parameter “DI1 Configure” to “Seq1” and parameter “DO1 Configure” to “SeqOut-01.”
Since control of the sequencer is only needed from the keypad, the configuration of the “Input Mode”
parameter should be “Local Only.”
Required parameter modifications for this program are given in Table 7-11, with brief explanations.
* These digital codes must be converted to hexadecimal equivalents for entry into the drive.
