Ladder logic transfers motion commands to the module and axis
status from the module thru the I/O image table. Ladder logic also
copies configuration parameters to the module’s M0 file at power up.
It also copies configuration parameters (that you enter/change with
the Hydraulic Configurator) from the module’s M1 file to processor
files. Thus, you can establish a library of configurations (recipes) in
processor files that you can select and download to the module at
power up or each time you want to change the setup of your axes.
We explain the functions of the ladder logic later in this manual.
Use the module in an SLC-based system for control of hydraulic
applications where two or more axes must reach their final position
at the same time, such as:
•
plywood presses
•
roll positioning
•
palletizers and stackers
•
forging machines
•
hydraulic tailgate loaders
In addition, the module is designed to support independent axes using
either servo or proportional amplifiers, and retrofit into existing
hydraulic systems requiring a positive voltage irrespective of direction.
