SECTION 6—OPERATING CONSIDERATIONS
SSC-1500 Gen II Part-Revolution Solid-State Control
(Continued on next page.)
SSC-1500 Gen II Operation Checklist
1. Is all wiring to the machine, the solid-state control module (black box), and keypad/display
correct when verified with the drawings sent with the solid-state control?...........................................................................................Y or N
2. Does the connection between the resolver/pulser cable and the P5 connector exist,
as referenced in the wiring diagram? (See page 26 or Sheet No. 2 of the schematics.)...........................................................................Y or N
3. Does the resolver/pulser cable have any splices? (Answer should be NO.).............................................................................................Y or N
4. When powering up the solid-state control module, do the four (green) LEDs
(Power Status and CPU) on the front of the black control module turn on?.............................................................................................Y or N
5. Is the WAKE UP SCREEN displayed with the message: “SAFEGUARDS IN PLACE?”
when the main power disconnect switch is turned on?.........................................................................................................................Y or N
6. With no slide motion, check the SPM reading on the RUN SCREEN.
Visually verify that SPM is displaying 000 with no flickering of the numbers....................................................................................Y or N
(If numbers are flickering, please consult the factory.)
7. Was the POWER-UP PROCEDURE performed at TDC (top dead center) of crankshaft
rotation? (See page 44 of this Installation Manual)...............................................................................................................................Y or N
Note: The shaft extension of the resolver must have the keyway up and perpendicular
to the base of the assembly when setting the resolver.)
8. The resolver/pulser assembly was shipped with the print shown for clockwise (CW)
rotation (when looking at the shaft extension where the sprocket is attached). If this
assembly is mounted to operate in a counterclockwise (CCW) rotation, the resolver wiring
must be reset for counterclockwise rotation. Refer to page 26 or Sheet No. 2 of the schematics
shipped with the control box. Does the above checkout?.......................................................................................................................Y or N
9. In normal run modes, such as
Single
or
Sequence Stop
, does the machine make
cycles without any faults appearing on the display?..............................................................................................................................Y or N
Electrical Troubleshooting
All troubleshooting, as well as installation, must be performed by qualified and properly trained personnel. Also, when
a defective component is found, do not operate the machine until that component has been replaced with an exact
replacement part.
This procedure is written as a general guide for troubleshooting most part-revolution control systems. In all cases, please refer to the individual control
wiring schematic for particular test points and terminal numbers. Be sure to follow the schematic and select the proper modes of operation when
troubleshooting.
If a defective component (contact) is found, always verify with an ohm meter. Lock the disconnect switch in the off position, isolate the component or contact
from other wiring and check its integrity with an ohm meter. At the same time, manually operate the device (in the case of a contact) to check its function.
The following should be checked if your machine is not functioning properly at this time:
Check the exhaust port and muffler on the dual-solenoid valve. The exhaust port and exhaust muffler must be clean and unobstructed so an unrestricted flow
of exhaust air from the air cylinder or clutch/brake is obtained.
