AEMZP0BA - EPS-AC0 - User Manual
U
A cable connected to the wrong pin can lead to short circuits and failure; so,
before turning on the truck for the first time, verify with a multimeter the
continuity between the starting point and the end of a signal wire.
8.8 Safety features
U
ZAPI controllers are designed according to the prEN954-1 specifications for
safety related parts of control system and to UNI EN1175-1 norm. The safety of
the machine is strongly related to installation; length, layout and screening of
electrical connections have to be carefully designed.
ZAPI is always available to cooperate with the customer in order to evaluate
installation and connection solutions. Furthermore, ZAPI is available to
develop new SW or HW solutions to improve the safety of the machine,
according to customer requirements.
Machine manufacturer holds the responsibility for the truck safety features
and related approval.
Eps-ac0 implements a double µC structure to comply with the Category#3
specification. The second µC main task is to check correct functionality of the first
µC, whose main task is to control the steering motor. Basically, the two
microcontrollers implement a double check control of the main functions.
The two µCs are both CAN Bus connected. This characteristic makes possible the
eps-ac0 receives the steering command (wished steered wheel position) via CAN
Bus fulfilling the norm.
8.9 EMC
U
EMC and ESD performances of an electronic system are strongly influenced
by the installation. Special attention must be given to the lengths and the
paths of the electric connections and the shields. This situation is beyond
ZAPI's control. Zapi can offer assistance and suggestions, based on its years
experience, on EMC related items. However, ZAPI declines any responsibility
for non-compliance, malfunctions and failures, if correct testing is not made.
The machine manufacturer holds the responsibility to carry out machine
validation, based on existing norms (EN12895 for industrial truck; EN50081-2
for other applications).
EMC stands for Electromagnetic Compatibility, and it represents the studies and the
tests on the electromagnetic energy generated or received by an electrical device.
Emission
refers to the energy radiated from the controller and the harness.
Immunity
can be divided in two main branches: rejection from external
electromagnetic fields and from electrostatic discharges (ESD).
So the analysis works in three directions:
