Using the PLC function (user standard inputs/outputs)
Before making any "user standard input/output" connections, check that the electrical
and electronic characteristics of the different inputs and outputs are respected. Incorrect
connection could permanently damage the machine electronics.
Using the PLC function means that it is not just a matter of considering the machine
on its own in order to ensure operator safety. The machine becomes part of a larger
process (automated line). Consequently, the whole final workstation (m PLC +
loading system) needs to meet regulatory safety requirements. In this case, the machine
and equipment installer is responsible for the final work station's compliance.
The activation menu for the PLC function is accessed from the Configuration menu. This function is used to
configure the machine as a PLC in an automated line. Once it has been activated, this function is used to
operate the machine using signals sent through the PLC port.
To use the PLC function, configure the inputs/outputs (X-Y values to be defined):
4 Inputs
4 Outputs
I1: X
O1: Y
I2: X
O2: Y
I3: X
O3: Y
I4: X
O4: Y
4 inputs can be defined (I1 - I4): 5 X values available.
4 outputs can be defined (O1 - O4): 6 Y values available.
Available inputs
Available outputs
X=0: No input wanted
Y=0: No output wanted
X=1: Start marking
Y=1: Laser fume extractor
X=2: Pause
Y=2: Pause
X=3: Return to origin (0,0)
Y=3: Origin (0,0)
X=4: Next file
Y=4: Air assist (active state: high position)
Y=5: Air assist (active state: low position)
One available input or output may be selected several times.
