Cygnus Operating Manual
the outputs are binary encoded (actual coding is binary - 1, with 000
representing position 1 and 111 representing position 8), 2 outputs are needed
for 4 crucibles, 3 for 8, 4 for 16, 5 for 32 and 6 for 64.
CRUCIBLE OUTPUT . . . . . . . . . . . . 0 to 37 (default = 0)
This parameter designates which of the outputs are to be used as crucible
outputs. The value 0 indicates the crucible output is inactive. The value entered
into this parameter indicates which of the outputs begins the sequence used as
crucible control outputs. For example, a 4 entered into the Number of Crucibles
parameter and a 1 entered into the Crucible Output parameter will designate
outputs 1 and 2 as crucible control outputs with the least significant bit of the
binary coding in output 1. An 8 entered into the Number of Crucibles parameter
and a 1 entered into the Crucible Output parameter will designate outputs 1, 2,
and 3 as crucible control outputs with the least significant bit of the binary
coding in output 1.
CRUCIBLE OUTPUT TYPE. . . . . . . 0, 1 (default = 0)
This parameter designates the normal state of the output contacts for the
Crucible outputs. 0 indicates an Normally Open output, 1 indicates a Normally
Closed output.
TURRET FEEDBACK . . . . . . . . . . . YES / NO (default = NO)
Some turret source indexers provide feedback to signify when the turret is in
the proper position. This parameter allows Cygnus to accept this input and
respond accordingly. A YES indicates that Turret Feedback is expected and the
Turret Input parameter is displayed on the screen. A NO indicates there is no
Turret Feedback forthcoming and the Turret Delay parameter is displayed. The
default value is NO. See the Turret Input and Turret Delay descriptions below.
NOTE: If the Turret Feedback is set to YES and the Channel is STARTed, the
Channel will proceed to the Crucible Switch state. If the turret input is
not received within 60 seconds the Channel will enter the STOP state.
TURRET INPUT . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0 to 28 (default = 0)
This parameter designates which of the 28 inputs is to be the Turret Feedback
input. Values 1 through 28 correspond to the appropriate input. Value 0
indicates that an input for turret feedback is not used. However, an input must
be assigned, or the channel will never proceed past the crucible switching
state. If a value other than 0 is entered, then the input chosen as the Turret
Input is designated as such on the I/O Map display. Input lines are activated
with a contact closure to ground.
