Pulse Copy
With the Pulse Copy function we can program a series or a ‘train’ of pulses into a specific channel without having to enter
the ON and OFF setpoints for each pulse we would like to program. Pulse Copy uses the main program, subroutine, and
CDM in the same manner as the Pulse Edit function.
C01 & C04 Example.rss (cont’d)
To perform a Pulse Copy:
1. Enter the program number in N7:8.
2. Enter the channel number in N7:9.
3. Enter the ‘copy on’ point in N7:10.
4. Enter the ‘copy off’ point in N7:11.
5. Enter the ‘pulse count’(how many pulses you would like the ‘train to consist of), in N7:12.
6. Enter the ‘pulse duration’(how long you would like each pulse in that train to be), in N7:13.
7. Enter a ‘1’ to B3/2 to activate Pulse Copy.
While the Pulse Copy is active, B3/2 will remain ‘1’. Once B3/2 goes to ‘0’, Pulse Copy is complete. Ensure that pulses
do not overlap, otherwise an error bit will be generated in the Module Status Register. If an error occurs, ‘toggle’ the
‘CLEAR ERROR BIT’, O:1/8. The values contained in the CDM shown to the right will copy a total of 10 pulses in Program
0, Channel 1. The pulse ‘train’ will start at 0 and end at 350. Each pulse will have a duration of 10 degrees.
