5-5 Programming, Optional Features
Extra Program Storage: Option “-F” (continued)
FCN 3 - Program Number Changes
The “F” option can store up to 992 unique programs in
memory. These program numbers can be created and
accessed in random order.
A convenient Program number (Pn) feature allows the
desired program number (1-992) to be entered directly
without having to enter the corresponding values into the
Program bank (Pb) and Active Program (AP) parameters.
This is the method described below under “Changing
Program Numbers from Keyboard.”
If the hardware program select inputs are going to be used
(they can be driven from a PLC or selector switch) to select
programs, it may be necessary to program the Program
bank (Pb) and Active Program (AP) from the keyboard.
Follow the instructions given below under “Hardware
Selection of Program Number.”
Changing Active Program Number from Keyboard
Use the Program number (Pn) feature of FCN 3 to select
any program directly by entering the corresponding number
from 1-992. The corresponding “Pb” and “AP” values will
automatically be calculated and selected. It will not be
necessary to calculate or program “Pb” or “AP”, but they can
be viewed to verify that their values correspond to the
selected program number.
Pn— Program number (1-992)
Pb— Program bank (1-124); 124 banks of eight programs
each
AP— Active Program (1-8); active program within bank
Example:
If Program number (Pn) 94 is selected, “Pb” will equal 12
(12th bank of eight programs) and “AP” will equal six (6th
program within this bank).
DO NOT enter values into “Pb” or “AP” if the keyboard
program selection is being used. Simply program “Pn” to the
desired program number from 1-992.
Hardware Selection of Program Number
The hardware program select inputs override the keyboard
programmed Active Program (AP) value when any one or
combination of the inputs is energized. When the hardware
inputs are used to select the Active Program (AP), insure
that “AP” is set equal to one.
The hardware select inputs affect only the current “AP”
value that is controlling the outputs. The “Pb” is not affected
by the select inputs and has to be changed from the
keyboard if more than 8 programs are used.
Note: Active Program and Program Bank can be changed
through the serial communication port also.
