3.1 Configuring a F-CIM sequence
F-CIM sequences can be configured using four different methods:
1. From the controller’s front panel using the procedure described in Section 3.3.
2. From a PC compatible computer running the MC5FIG.EXE program included with the
model 53HC3300D software package. Refer to Instruction Bulletin 53HC3300 for the
exact procedure.
3. From the Engineer Mode of a model 53SU5000 SUPERVISOR-PC Operator’s Station.
Refer to Instruction Bulletin 53SU5000 for the exact procedure.
4. Using the model 53MT6000 Micro-Tools configuration tool.
3.2 Module Library (
Refer to Figure
3-2
)
The modules shown in this section are available for use in F-CIM sequences. F-CIM modules are
available in two different types, reusable and non-reusable. The reusable modules have no database
parameters associated with them and can be used as often as required in the sequence. Non-reus-
able modules have additional parameters and may only be used once. Information on the individual
modules indicate which type it is.
Each module may have up to four inputs:
S
n-1
- This input is the output of the previous step.
A, B and C - These inputs can be configured to any of the following data points:
H00 - H255, C00 - C539, B00 - B511, L00 - L999, or S00 - S99 (Step outputs) or to a nu-
meric value (refer to Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000).
Some modules require that the A, B and C inputs point only to certain types of data while others can
point to any data type. The AIN, BIN and CIN columns in Figure 3-2 indicate when the following
restrictions apply.
Y - Any H,C,B,L or S type or numeric value is permitted.
C - Must be C00 - C539 or S00 - S999 or numeric value.
X - This input is not used
3.3 Configuring F-CIM sequences from the Front Panel
(Refer to Figure 3-1)
The Controller’s Engineer Mode provides a method of configuring an F-CIM sequence.
Engineer Mode is entered by pressing the "MODE" button. The F2 key is then used to sequence
through "CONFIGURE", "PROGRAM", and "DISPLAY". Pressing the F3 key when "PROGRAM" is
displayed selects the F-CIM editor.
Note:
If a PROGRAM KEY (Password) has been configured the
key must be entered before proceeding.
Up to 100 steps of the sequence can now be displayed, built, or erased using the "VIEW", "BUILD",
and "ERASE" keys.
3.3.1 Viewing Steps
Selecting VIEW (pressing F3 when VIEW is displayed) will display three numbers on the bottom of
the display (i.e., 00 042 0.0). The first number represents the step being displayed. The second is the
F-CIM code and the third displays the active output value of the step. The UP and DOWN arrow keys
can now be used to sequence through each step. The controller remains in normal operation.
