LOCON 24, 48 and 64 options
The program package “WINLOC“ which runs on any PC with WIN95/98 or WIN-NT is used for
this purpose.
After programming, the data can then be transferred to the LOCON via the PC's serial port.
It is also possible to transfer existing programs from LOCON to the PC, change these programs
on the PC and then reload them back into the cam control.
The WINLOC program package is available free of charge from our sales agents. You can also
download the software from our homepage.
7.11
Data backup and documentation on PC
The possibility of a data back up and documentation on a PC is also available. This is a part of
the "WINLOC" program package (see above).
This allows you to back up programs of LOCON to a PC's hard disk or floppy disk, to comfortably
print and also reload the programs.
7.12 Lockable outputs
The function 'Lockable outputs' offers the option of locking any number of outputs, whereby the
upper outputs are generally locked. The locked outputs can only be programmed with connected
programming approval (ProgEnable). The other outputs are freely programmable (also in case of
unconnected programming approval). This function is implemented if necessary.
Example:
A LOCON 24 with 8 locked outputs was ordered. Here the outputs 1 to 16 are freely programma-
ble in case of unconnected ProgEnable, the outputs 17 to 24 are only to be changed in case of
connected programming approval (ProgEnable).
7.13 Program controller function (encoder simulation)
The LOCON can also be configured as a program controller (timer). In this case, it behaves in
the same way as an incremental cam control. However, the count is changed not via an external
incremental encoder (see above) but via an internal timebase (which can be set from 1 ms to
65535 ms).
7.14 Analog outputs
Optionally the LOCON 24 / LOCON 48 can be equipped with 2 analog outputs. A freely program-
mable analog voltage can be programmed in a item-based way via these outputs. The entry is
carried out in mV.
