MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 DESCRIPTION

This Quick Start Guide provides the information needed to install and wire a 53MC5000 Modular

Controller with a quick and easy set up of two control strategies: CS1 Standard PID and CS20 Two

Loop Controller. This guide is designed to help the user become familiar with the 53MC5000 and to place it in service for simple applications. More detailed information on technical specifications, control strategies and communications are discussed in the 53MC5000 Instruction Bulletin.

1.2 USING THIS MANUAL

The following paragraphs briefly describe the remaining sections of this manual.

1.2.1 INSTALLATION

Section 2.0, INSTALLATION, describes the hardware requirements for mounting and wiring the

53MC5000 in a panel. This section includes a full set of dimensional and mounting drawings. The interconnections subsection describes the types of signals required for each of the input/outputs: analog (or voltage) inputs, analog (or current )outputs, contact inputs and contact outputs. Connection drawings are included for 53MC5000 controllers with the standard rear terminals on the back of the instrument or with optional cord set terminations.

For mounting in panels ............................................. see pages 2-1 to 2-5

For interconnection wiring ........................................ see pages 2-6 to 2-10

For cord set wiring .................................................... see pages 2-11 to 2-14

For grounding ............................................................ see page 2-15

1.2.2 FUNCTIONALITY

Section 3.0, FUNCTIONALITY, provides general instructions for configuring the 53MC5000 for operation. The Modular Controller database is comprised of many parameters that control or display various operational features. Each parameter is identified by a database location (e.g. A10 or

C100). The values loaded into specific database locations enable the 53MC5000 to perform its specialized functions. For convenience, database values that perform a single function have been grouped into modules. All data in the database are one of six types. The data type is identified by the first character of the database location. A full description of each module type is included in this section.This section also describes the function of the controller front panel, and the method in which front panel keys or the Hand Held Configurer can be used to input database values.

For available Function Indexes................................ see pages 3-1 to 3-2

Automation. Outline dimensions and panel cut-out requirements for case mounting are shown in Figure 2-1. Outline dimensions for optional interconnection terminal boards are shown in Figure 2-2.

The dimensions given for spacing between instruments were selected on the basis of 1/8" thick panel strength. Panel strength must be considered when multiple case mounting is required. As the panel cut-out becomes longer it may be necessary to install supporting members. Because the panel area between instrument rows becomes weaker as the cut-out becomes longer to the point

2-1

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START where the panel offers very little support. It is recommended that the 9 inch minimum center line dimension between horizontally mounted rows be increased as the number of units increases, or that the panel strip be stiffened.

The rear of the instrument case must be supported to prevent panel distortion. Mount an angle iron or similar member along the bottom of the cases as indicated in Figure 2-3. If the panel is to be moved the instrument cases must be tied down to prevent damage.

If multiple mounted instruments are installed in a panel that tilts back, it may be necessary to support the instruments so the panel does not sag. The downward weight should be supported by additional panel supports and/or by increasing panel thickness.

2.3.2 MOUNTING PROCEDURE

For single and multiple case mounting the instruments are furnished with a trim collar (mounting frame). Figure 2-3 illustrates the installation and use of the trim collar (mounting frame). Trim collars (mounting frames) are available in various sizes and are supplied to conform with the particular panel cut-out.

NOTE

Mounting brackets and trim collars (mounting frames) are packaged separately. Check the shipment carefully to prevent loss of mounting hardware.

To install single or multiple mounted instruments in a prepared panel cut-out, proceed as follows.

1. Remove the through-case shipping bolt

2. Slip the trim collar (mounting frame) over the rear of the case and slide it forward to the front of the case.

3. Slide the instrument case through the panel opening.

a) Single mounting case - support the weight of the case and attach the top and bottom mounting brackets. Tighten the bracket screws.

b) Multiple mounted cases -

MicroMod

Automation spacer bars and self-adhesive pads must be used between the cases, as shown in Figure 2-4. Start the installation from the right

(when facing the panel), installing the spacers as each case is added. As each case is positioned in place, install and tighten the top and bottom mounting brackets. Each case must be tight against the previous case.

NOTE

Spacers are not required on the outside of the right and left cases.

2.4 INTERCONNECTIONS

2.4.1 PREPARATORY

The 53MC5000 can be configured as any of a variety of conventional controller types, enabling it to be easily adaptable for service in numerous system applications. Prior to electrical interconnection, the particular instrument configuration should be established and all inputs and outputs identified and assigned to assure proper signal routing.

2.4.2 WIRING PROCEDURE

Provisions for electrical interconnections are located at the rear of the instrument case. Under ideal conditions the use of shielded cable may not be required. In noisy locations all system input, output and power wiring should be enclosed in electrical conduit. Rigid conduit should be terminated by using a short length of flexible conduit at the rear of the case to reduce stress. System interconnection wiring (except for power cable) should be fabricated by the use of 2-wire shielded signal cable. Signal transmission distance should not exceed the limit specified for the particular transmitter

(refer to applicable technical literature provided for the respective device). Polarity must be observed when connecting the remote transmitters to the Controller.

The Controller is available with integral rear case wiring terminal strips. Power wiring is connected to separate screw type terminals on the rear of the instrument case. Optional Cord Set connections are discuss in Section 2.5 of Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000.

NOTE

The screw terminals on the back of the instrument are designed for 12 -

24 AWG wire. It is important that the wire be stripped to expose 1/2 inch of conductor before installation.

Refer to the Interconnection Diagrams, Figures 2-11 through 2-14 of Instruction Bulletin

53MC5000, to supplement the following description of system interconnections.

WARNING

Instruments that are powered from an ac line service constitute a potential electric shock hazard to the user. Make certain that these system ac power lines are disconnected from the operating branch circuit before attempting electrical interconnections.

2.4.2.1 POWER INPUT (AS SPECIFIED)

2.4.2.1.1 DC Power:

Connect the remote 24 V dc power supply to the Controller, as follows:

1. Connect (+) input line, via remote SPST switch, to terminal "L".

2. Connect (-) input line to the system bus bar. The bus bar should be connected to a good earth ground (#8 AWG wire is recommended). Individual wires should be run from the Controller Power Common and Signal Common terminals to the bus bar. The chassis should be grounded by connecting terminal "G" to earth ground.

2-6

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

NOTE

Use of a common bus bar is recommended to minimize potential voltage differences that may occur as the result of ground current loops, i.e., potential difference between separate signal grounds, power grounds, etc.

2.4.2.1.2 AC Power:

Connect the specified line service (110-120, 220-240 V ac, 50 or 60 Hz) to the Controller, as follows:

1. Connect the phase or hot line (L), via a remote power disconnect switch or circuit breaker, to terminal "L1".

2. Connect the neutral line (N) to terminal "L2" for 110-120 V ac. Connect the neutral line

(N) to terminal "L3" for 220-240 V ac.

3. Connect Power Common to a good earth ground (#12 AWG wire is recommended).

4. The instrument case shall be grounded by connecting terminal "G" to earth ground at the source of supply (green/green-yellow ground).

5. All supply connections include surge protection rated at 264 V ac, normal mode, and 275

V ac, common mode to chassis ground.

NOTE

To minimize possible interference, ac power wiring should be routed away from signal wiring.

2.4.2.2 VOLTAGE INPUT

When the input signal is from a 4-20 mA current transmitter, a precision 250 ohms (+/-0.1%) resistor is required. The resistor tolerance is critical in this case, because the resistor is utilized to accurately convert the current signal from the transmitter (4-20 mA, typical) to a specified analog input voltage (1 to 5 Vdc). The standard rear terminal board has the appropriate resistors on AI0 and

AI1. If the input signal is already a voltage signal, the resistors should be removed. The optional

Cord Set ITB has the appropriate resistors on AI0 - AI3.

2.4.2.3 CONTACT INPUTS

Two separate contact input signals may be used for system sequencing or control purposes, e.g., pump "on" contact. One side of each remote contact must be connected to power common, refer to

Figure 2-5 of this manual and Figure 2-11 of the Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000. The remote contact must provide a maintained closure for at least 0.05 second, to provide the Controller with enough time to "read" the signal. The user must assign each remote contact to a specific input

(DI0-DI1) as dictated by the particular operation to be performed.

2.4.2.4 CURRENT OUTPUT

Two current output signals are available for transmission to remote analog indicating, recording or controlling devices. The current output signal, 4 to 20 mA, will vary in direct proportion to the process variable being displayed, e.g., volumetric flow rate, mass flow rate, operating pressure, etc.

Observe proper polarity when connecting the remote analog instrument.

2-7

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

2.4.2.5 CONTACT OUTPUTS

Two discrete contact outputs (DO0 to DO1, typically one for each of two separate process measurement loops) are identified in Figures 2-5 and 2-6. The discrete output is a solid state switch with a rating of 30 V dc, 50 mA maximum. Both discrete outputs are referenced to power common.

The contact outputs are assigned and used in different ways depending on the particular Function

Index being employed.

When these contacts are connected to an inductive load, an external arc suppression network is required for contact protection.

2.4.3 FACTORY SET CALIBRATION

Each unit contains individual factory set entries which calibrate the standard analog inputs and outputs. Upon completion of the installation, the calibration sheet supplied with the instrument should be retained for future reference.

Refer to Section 6.2 of Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000 for additional information.

2-8

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

2.5 CORD SETS (OPTIONAL)

2.5.1 GENERAL

The 53MC5000 Cord Set receptacle and cables are an alternate method of interconnecting the

Controller to a remotely mounted interconnection terminal block(ITB). The standard instruments have screw type terminals directly mounted on the rear terminal board. In the cord set version the screw type terminals and associated circuit board are removed and in its place a circuit board that terminates in receptacles is furnished.

2.5.2 INSTALLATION

The Cord Set Case is assembled as part of the instrument before leaving the factory. Carefully remove the instrument assembly from its packing case. After the instrument has been mounted in the panel, install the cable or cables. The latches on the plug must engage the receptacle keepers.

2.5.3 INTERCONNECTIONS

The accessory cable and standard lengths are as follows:

1. Signal Cable, standard (20 conductor) - used for control signals, 4AI, 2AO, 2DOs, 2DIs; standard length 5 feet .

2. Data Link Cable for unit to unit interconnect (6 conductor) - used for connection of one controller to another; standard length 30 inches with a 6 conductor connector on each end.

3. Refer to Figures 2-7 through 2-9 of this manual and Figures 2-12 through 2-14 of Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000.

2-11

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

2.6 GROUNDING

Installations are expected to have access to an independent, high quality, noise-free point of earth reference. The system should be connected by a dedicated, low resistance (less than one ohm) lead wire directly to the installation’s point of earth reference. This ground reference is referred to as the Instrumentation Ground. If an instrumentation ground reference does not exist in the installation, an earth ground electrode should be established with an independent grounding rod or groundgrid mesh.

3.0 FUNCTIONALITY

This section provides general instructions for configuring the 53MC5000 Modular Controller for operation, and the information necessary for a quick and easy set-up of the CS-1 Standard PID and

CS-20 Two Loop controller. For special configuration or other Control Strategy types, refer to the

53MC5000 Instruction Manual.

The 53MC5000 controller’s functionality is controlled by the instrument’s Function Index (FIX). The available FIXs are described below. The FIX is set by means of database parameter B00. As described in Section 4.0, when shipped from the factory the Flexible Control Strategy, FIX 1, is enabled. The basic FIX 1 control strategy, CS1 described in Section 4.0, is a Single Loop PID

Controller. If this control strategy meets your needs, your controller is ready to use as received. If, however, minor changes are required such as enabling remote setpoint or characterizing the PV input, follow the instructions provided in Section 4.1 for making these minor modifications. (Note that all changes made to parameters must be made using one of the methods described in Section

3.2.2)

Instructions for transforming the single-loop Flexible Control Strategy into a direct digital controller, flow ratio controller, automatic/manual station, or ratio automatic/manual station are provided in the

53MC5000 Instruction Bulletin.

All FIXs are executed in a common environment of input, output and general modules. Each control strategy mentioned above may be further modified by taking advantage of the standard modules described in Section 3.5. Customizing the FIX 1 Control Strategy by changing the modules is described in Section 4.4 of Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000.

If a greater degree of customization is desired, the extended version of the 53MC5000 allows designing of a user-defined control strategy using F-CIM function blocks as described in the

53MC5000 Customization Guide. For the ultimate degree of customization, F-TRAN, also described in the Customization Guide, can be used with the extended version of the controller.

The available FIXs are:

FIX 0 - Suspend Control

The control program stops,inputs continue to be measured, and Totalizers and Trends continue to update. Outputs reflect the contents of their associated datapoints. The display will always show the Fischer & Porter logo.

FIX 1 - Flexible Control Strategy (FCS)

The FIX 1 control algorithm executes a set of function modules in a fixed sequence. The inputs of each module can be connected to the output of any other module simply by configuring the appropriate database parameter (soft wiring). Various pre-configured wirelists are contained within the unit and each is referred to as a control strategy (CS). Two of the available control strategies are explained in the subsequent section. All of the control strategies are defined in Section 4 of Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000. The controller is shipped with FCS active, FIX = 1, and the standard single loop control strategy CS = 1 enabled.

3-1

3-2

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

FIX 97 - Display Test

FIX 97 causes a series of three test patterns to appear on the display. One pattern lights the dots around the outer edge of the display. A second pattern lights the even numbered dots. The third pattern lights the odd numbered dots. The control program stops but the database is not disturbed..

FIX 98 - Default Database

The database of the controller can be set to a predetermined condition by setting B00 to 98. This causes the entire database except for the analog I/O calibration constants, the FCS wirelist, and some text strings ("A" data types) to be set to default values. After this operation, the controller returns to FIX 0. See the tables in Section 7 of Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000 for the default values of each parameter.

The Extended Functionality version of the Controller allows additional customization through the use of F-CIM function block programming and F-TRAN programming.

FIX 99 - F-CIM Programming

If a control strategy is needed that can not be accomplished by use of the FCS algorithm, the F-

CIM configuration method can be used. F-CIM allows the soft wiring as in the FCS algorithm and also allows the use of additional modules and user specified sequencing of the modules. Each module constitutes a step and the entire sequence can be 100 steps long. A large library of modules is available. Many of these are reusable, that is, they can be used as many times as necessary.

FIX 99 is ignored unless the Controller is of the Extended Functionality version which allows additional customization through the use of F-TRAN.

For the ultimate in flexibility and performance, custom control strategies can be implemented using the F-TRAN Programming language. It is also possible to create custom modules using the

F-TRAN programing language discussed in the 53MC5000 Customization Guide.

Using the Extended Functionality Option also permits the development of customized controller strategies and displays using the F-TRAN language. The development and loading of F-TRAN programs can be performed using the MicroMod Automation Micro-Tools product.

3.1.1 DISPLAY

The Modular Controller contains a high visibility dot matrix display. It is possible to configure static and/or dynamic data for application to specific displays. A detailed discussion of the various types of displays can be found in section 4.2 of Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000.

3.1.1.1 ALARM ANNUNCIATION

If a process alarm occurs "ALARM" will begin flashing on the top line of the display. The alarm is acknowledged by pressing the "MODE" pushbutton

3.1.1.2 ENGINEERING LINE

When the controller is in Engineering Mode described in Section 3.4 of Instruction Bulletin

53MC5000, the bottom line of the display can be used to display or change any of the controllers parameters.

3.1.2 KEY FUNCTIONS

The operation of the 10 pushbuttons on the front of the controller (see Figure 3-1) depends on the type of display currently selected. In general, the keys function as described below. Unless specified as an Engineering Mode function, the functions listed are for control mode.

R/L - This key is used by the POINT and GROUP displays to switch between REMOTE and LOCAL setpoint modes.

SP Buttons - The setpoint pushbuttons are used to adjust the setpoint of POINT displays and to highlight various selections in other displays. In Engineering Mode these keys are used to change or set values.

A/M - This button is used by the POINT displays to switch between AUTOMATIC and MANUAL operation.

OUT Buttons - The output pushbuttons are used by the POINT displays to adjust the output of the controller when the controller is in manual. In Engineering Mode these keys are used to change or set values.

MODE Button - The "MODE" button is used to turn off the alarm annunciator. If the alarm annunciator is not ON when the key is pressed, Engineering Mode is entered. Pressing the MODE key while in Engineering mode will return the user to normal "Operator Mode".

F1 - The F1 key is normally used to either page back to the previous display or to step to the next display group depending on how the display hierarchy has been configured. In Engineering Mode the F1 key moves back to the previous menu level.

F2 - The F2 key is normally used to advance to the next display. In Engineering Mode the F2 key is used to advance through the various choices (DISPLAY - CONFIGURE - PROGRAM).

F3 - The F3 key is used as an "ENTER" key by the Status, Parameter, and Summary displays to select the indicated menu choice. In the TWO LOOP display it toggles between the two loops.

In Engineering Mode the F3 key is used as an ENTER to choose the current selection or to complete the entry.

3.2 ENGINEER MODE OVERLAYS

The Engineer Mode Overlays are used to view (Display) or make necessary changes (Config-

ure) to the controller database parameters. Standard viewing/change entries are made by address-

ing single parameters by their datapoint specification on a single line overlay at the bottom of the display. On units with HiRes displays (53MC5xxxB4xxxxxxxxx) either the datapoint method or the module method may be used to perform viewing/change operations. The following sample screens show the high-resolution display except where noted. The module method uses a full screen overlay to navigate through a series of menus to select the parameter(s) of interest by their module/atom reference. If Engineer Mode is accessed and its functions (e.g., configure or display) are not used, it "times-out" in 20 seconds and the overlay disappears from the bottom of the display.

The Engineer Mode may be locked-out with the Hand Held Configurer using the procedure described in Section 3.4.

3.2.1 PASSWORD FUNCTION PROMPT

When the password prompt

KEY?

appears, it indicates a password was set with an external device

(e.g. Hand Held Configurer, personal computer, etc.). The password can not be set via the front panel push buttons. A password key is a maximum of 10 numeric characters (numbers 0-9 only).

It does not impede display functions in engineering mode but must be unlocked to perform configuration functions. A password key is

3.3 KEYPAD ALTERNATIVES

There are six alternative methods other than the faceplate push buttons for accessing and changing database parameters. All six methods to display and/or alter database parameters are listed as follows:

Using a personal computer running the MC5FIG.EXE configuration program that is supplied as part of the 53HC3300 software package. This procedure is included in the Instruction Bulletin (IB 53HC3300) with the software.

Using a personal computer running the configuration program that is supplied as part of the 53MT6000 software package. This procedure is included in the Instruction Bulletin

(IB 53MT6000) with the software.

Using an

UPERVISOR-PC with configuration software. This procedure is provided in the SUPERVISOR-PC Instruction Bulletin (IB 53SU5000).

Using the Hand Held Configurer connected to the configuration port mini-DIN plug on the front panel of the instrument.

Using an ASCII RS-232 terminal or a PC terminal emulator application connected to the configuration port mini-DIN plug on the front panel of the instrument (Refer to Section

3.3.2).

Using the remote keypad. (See Appendix C, Remote Keypad.)

Figure 3-3 illustrates the Hand Held Configurer and personal computer mini-DIN plug cables necessary to configure an instrument using alternative methods 1 through 6 described above. The personal computer cable type (9 pin or 25 pin) is dependent upon the communications port connector.

3.3.1 USING THE HAND HELD CONFIGURER

The "Configuration Port" connector behind the pull-down door on the front panel (see Figure 3-1) allows the attachment of the Hand Held Configurer. The configurer can then be used to display or change any parameter in the controller’s data base.

The Hand Held Configurer (HHC) is a portable terminal designed to interface with the 53MC5000 through the configuration port. The "Configuration Port" connector is located behind the pull-down door on the front panel of the 53MC5000 (see Figure 3-1). The Hand Held Configurer is available in two versions:

•

The Standard HHC allows the user to display or change individually the various parameters in the instrument database. The part number for ordering this HHC is

698B182U01.

•

In addition to the capabilities of the Standard HHC, the HHC with Memory

Functions allows the user to save and/or load the entire database and program of an instrument on a removable storage cartridge. The part number for ordering this

HHC is 698B182U02.

3-18

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

3.3.1.1 SETUP OF THE HAND HELD CONFIGURER

The Hand Held Configurer is shipped pre-configured to operate with the Controller. If the Configurer does not operate correctly, check the configuration by entering the Configurer’s set-up mode.

To enter set-up mode press <control> <shift> and <F1> simultaneously. The correct configuration is shown below.

BAUD = 9600

DATA BITS = 7

PARITY = SPACE

(not aplicable for U02 version)

(PARITY = NONE for U02 version)

DISPLAY PE ENABLED

REPEAT = FAST

ECHO DISABLED

HANDSHAKE DISABLED

SELF TEST DISABLED

If the configuration is not correct, it can be altered while in the Configurer’s set-up mode.

When set-up mode is entered the current baud rate setting is displayed on the top line; the following choices are also displayed:

F1 Change Parameter

F2 Next

F3 Previous

F4 Quit

F5 Save

If the baud rate setting is incorrect, the setting can be changed by pressing F1. Each time the F1 key is pressed, an optional setting for the parameter on the top line of the display will be shown.

When the desired setting appears, press F2 to see the current setting for the next parameter (or F3 to see the setting for the previous one). If the setting is not correct, use F1 to cycle through available settings. All parameters can be checked and changed, if desired, in this way.

Pressing F4 (Quit) will exit set-up mode and any changes made will stay in effect until the Configurer is disconnected.

Use F5 to save changes to the controller’s memory; the Hand Held Configurer can then be disconnected and the changes will remain in effect.

3.3.1.2 DISPLAYING A DATA BASE PARAMETER

To display a data base parameter press "D" and the parameter ID followed by <enter>. The current value of the parameter will be displayed. The parameter ID is the data type specifier (B, L, C, H, F, and A) and number of the point as shown in Section 7 of Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000.

For example, to see the value of B12, press:

D B12 <enter>.

The value presently assigned to B12 will be displayed.

Values displayed with the "D" command are formatted as follows:

B - three digit characters 000-255

L - one digit character 0 or 1

C & H - ten characters including digits, decimal point and sign (when negative). An exception is for the value of true zero, where the display consists of the three characters 0.0

F - five characters or less

A & Q - ten characters or less

Pressing <enter> after pressing "D" will automatically recall the last data base parameter ID used.

Pressing "N" after pressing "D" causes the next parameter of the same data type to be displayed.

(The NEXT command "N" only works with index numbers below 256.)

3.3.1.3 CHANGING A DATA BASE PARAMETER

To modify a value or enter a new value press "P" and the parameter ID followed by <enter>. Then press the keys corresponding to the value to be assigned followed by <enter>.

For example, to set B0 to FIX 99 press:

P B0 <enter> 099 <enter>

Values entered with the PUT command "P" must be formatted as follows:

In general, all modification inputs are limited to the first ten characters of the field.

For B data type the value entered must be between 0 and 255.

For L data type the value must be 1 or 0.

All responses are completed by pressing <enter>.

Pressing <enter> after pressing "P" will automatically recall the last database parameter.

Pressing "N" after pressing "P" causes the next parameter of the same data type to be displayed.

(The NEXT command "N" only works with index numbers below 256.)

3.3.1.4 SETTING OR CHANGING A PASSWORD ("KEY")

As a security feature,the Modular Controller can be configured so that a password or "key" is needed to change the controller’s configuration or F-CIM program in Engineering Mode using the buttons on the front panel of the controller. These passwords or "keys" can only be accessed by the Hand Held Configurer or the 53HC3300C software package.

3-21

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

The "keys" are a special datatype which can be displayed or configured as any other datatype with the Hand Held Configurer. The "keys" are datapoint Q1 for front panel configuration and Q2 for front panel F-CIM program access.

The value assigned to a "key" can be any ASCII string up to 10 characters. However, front panel password entry will only permit numbers (0-9) as input characters. To remove a "key" completely, modify its value to <CTRL> 0 (hold CTRL and press 0).

3.3.1.5 STORAGE CARTRIDGE TRANSFER

The procedure for saving or loading the database program or calibration constants of an instrument to/from a storage cartridge is as follows. First insert the cartridge containing the desired database and/or program into the HHC. The cartridge is inserted by placing it into the recess at the back of the HHC with the cartridge label facing outward and up, then sliding the cartridge down until it is firmly seated. When loading to the instrument, verify that the write protect switch (when present) on the cartridge has been pushed to its outside position. When saving to the cartridge the write protect switch must be toward the inside.

To initiate the transfer operation press "T" at command entry point. The following menu will appear:

MEMORY TRANSFER

F1-TO CONTROLLER

F2-FROM CONTROLLER

PRESS EITHER F1 or F2 key to select the desired operation. Pressing <CTRL> C will abort the operation. Depending on which selection is made one of the following two menus will be displayed:

1. If F1 is selected, the following menu will appear:

F1-CALIBRATE

F2-DATABASE

F3-PROGRAM

Based on which selection from this menu is made the following operations will occur:

F1-CALIBRATE:

This copies the calibration values of the standard analog inputs and outputs to the controller. These values were saved to the storage cartridge during the copying of the database to the cartridge. Transfer takes approximately 1 second.

F2-DATABASE:

This copies the database less the calibration values and the instrument address to the controller. Transfer takes approximately 12 seconds.

F3-PROGRAM:

This copies the user programs and F-CIM program which were earlier saved to the controller. Transfer takes approximately 20 seconds.

3-22

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

2. If F2 is selected, the following menu will appear:

F2-DATABASE

F3-PROGRAM

Based on which selection from this menu is made the following operations will occur:

F2- DATABASE:

This copies the entire database, all B,L,C,H,A, and F datapoint values, in the controller to the storage cartridge. Transfer takes approximately 12 seconds.

F3- PROGRAM:

This copies all the user written F-TRAN programs and the F-CIM programs in the controller to the storage cartridge. Transfer takes approximately 20 seconds.

When the transfer begins a message indicating that the transfer has started will be displayed.

When the transfer is completed a message indicating completion will be displayed. If for some reason the transfer failed, an error message will be displayed in place of the completed message. If an error occurs resolve the problem and reinitiate the transfer. No transfer error should be ignored since a partial transfer may have left the instrument cartridge in an indeterminate condition. Upon completion or error the HHC is again in the command entry mode.

3.4.1 ANALOG INPUT MODULES

The analog input modules permit the user to configure the characteristics of each input. The available parameters are shown below. Inputs AI4 through AI8 are only active if the appropriate hardware option is installed.

Each of the analog signals has its own set of parameters. To identify the data point corresponding to each parameter refer to the following table.

0 - 5 INPUT VOLTAGE RANGE:

Input transmitter ranges of 0-5 or 1-5 volts are supported as standard analog inputs. Setting this parameter to "1" indicates the input ranges from 0 to 5 volts; setting it to "0" indicates a 1 to 5 volt range.

SQUARE ROOT SIGNAL:

This parameter indicates whether the analog input signal should be interpreted as either a linear or square root representation of the value. When square root is selected input signals less then about

1% (10% input range) force the input to its zero value. A "1" indicates square root while a "0" indicates linear.

ENGINEERING SPAN and ZERO:

These parameters define the range of values that the analog input represents in engineering units.

Engineering Zero is the minimum range value. Maximum range value equals Engineering Zero plus

Engineering Span.

CALIBRATION ZERO and SPAN:

These parameters are set at the factory for correct operation of the associated input. They should not need adjustment under normal operation.

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

3.4.5 EXTERNAL INPUT MODULE

The External Input Modules provide the ability to obtain data from other MICRO-DCI



instruments through the Optional Peer to Peer Communications MicroLink



. The retrieval of a value from a connected instrument and its subsequent storage at a local datapoint is referred to as a task. Up to 24 tasks are supported at an instrument. The following parameters control and indicate the status of the tasks.

SOURCE:

This parameter specifies the address of the instrument and the datapoint of the value in the remote instrument to be accessed by the task. The datatype of the SOURCE must be the datatype of the

DESTINATION parameter of each task.

For example: If you access the value of AI2 in instrument 10 the entry would be 10H002.

DESTINATION:

This parameter specifies the local (within instrument) datapoint which is accessed by the task. The datapoint datatype must match in both SOURCE and DESTINATION parameters of each task.

For example: If you access the value of PV in CON module 1 the entry would be C136.

SCAN:

The rate at which a task is executed is determined by this parameter. The time in seconds (0-255) at which the task is to be repeated is loaded into this datapoint. A value of 0 stops task execution.

MODE:

This parameter indicates the type of access to be performed by the task.

0 - No access of source or destination

1 - Read from source , write to destination

2 - 255 - Undefined

STATUS:

This parameter indicates whether the last scheduled execution of the task was successfully completed.

0 - Unsuccessful

1 - Successful

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

3.4.6 CONTROLLER MODULE

Up to four CON modules are present in the controller. Compare the model number on the controller with the model number breakdown in Section 1.2 to determine the number of loops accessible.

These parameters control the action of the control algorithms and the content of the control loop displays.

3-34

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

The following options and characterization parameters are available in each PID control algorithm.

Data point references are for control loop 0. Data points for additionally available control loops are indicated in the module table.

PROPORTIONAL BAND:

The parameter PB (C106) modifies the controller response in standard PID terms. It is the percent of error required to move the output full scale.

RESET TIME:

The TR parameter (C107) modifies the controller response in standard PID terms. The value represents the number of minutes per repeat.

DERIVATIVE TIME:

The TD parameter (C108) modifies the controller response in standard PID terms. The value entered represents the minutes that proportional action is advanced.

DIRECT/REVERSE CONTROL ACTION:

The control action is determined by the configuration of the reverse action select (L106). When set to a 0 the controller output increases as the process value increases. When set to a 1 the controller output decreases as the process value increases.

CONTROLLER SPAN AND ZERO:

Control span (C115) and zero (C116) establish the upper and lower range of the controller. These permit the control action to be defined over an range independent of the process variable input range. The control span parameter also determines the speed at which the setpoint changes when the up and down arrow buttons are pressed.

CONTROL ZONE:

This parameter (C114) defines a gap or dead band on either side of the setpoint. When the process variable is within this gap control output changes are suppressed.

SETPOINT SLEW RATE:

Parameter T1 (C117) imposes a ramp limit on the setpoint. When configured to a non-zero value the setpoint used in the PID algorithm is only allowed to change by that amount each scan time.

The final value of the setpoint is always displayed on the units display.

REMOTE SETPOINT MODIFIERS:

B1 (C112) and K1 (C113) modify the remote setpoint input prior to being used in the setpoint generator. Setpoint = Remote Setpoint(RSP)

Ratio(K1) + Bias(B1).These parameters allow the

Remote Setpoint input to be configured to reflect the signal source.

REMOTE SETPOINT ENABLE:

When the Remote Setpoint Enable bit RE (L115) is a 1 the modified RSP is allowed to become the setpoint value of the setpoint generator based on the R/L pushbutton or if the remote switch SWR

(L113) is a 1.

SETPOINT MODE INDEX:

This parameter(B338), specifies how the SP increase and decrease buttons function when in remote. When the controller is in REMOTE the following applies.

0 = pushbuttons have no effect

1 = pushbuttons adjust K1

2 = pushbuttons adjust B1

3-35

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

SETPOINT TRACKING ENABLE:

When the Setpoint Tracking Enable bit STE (L118) is configured to a 1 the controller’s setpoint can be forced to match Setpoint Track Value STV (C128) when Setpoint Track Switch SWSPT (L116) is a 0. Based on the sources of the later two data points; PV tracking, SP fallback, SP override and other schemes can be implemented in the local setpoint generator.

SETPOINT LIMITS:

Parameters SH (C125) and SL (C126) are configured to indicate the maximum and minimum controller setpoint value allowed. These parameters are applied to the final output of the setpoint generator and thus effect the remote and track setpoint results.

OUTPUT HIGH AND LOW LIMIT:

Parameters OH (C109) and OL (C110) are configured to indicate the maximum and minimum controller output value in percent. These values may or may not be applied to the output in manual operation, depending on the setting of Hard Manual Limiting bit HML (L122).

OUTPUT SLEW RATE:

The value configured into parameter T3 (C118) is the maximum output change in percent allowed for the PID algorithm. A zero disables output slewing. This value has no effect on the manual operation of output.

OUTPUT TRACK ENABLE:

When Output Tracking Enable bit OTE (L119) is configured to a 1 the controller’s output can be forced to match Output Track Value OTV (C129) when Output Track Switch SWOVT (L117) is a 0.

Based on the sources of the later two data points; Output fallback or override as well as other schemes can be implemented in the auto/manual switch generator.

AUTO ENABLE:

When the Auto Enable bit AE (L114) is a 1 the control output CO (C123) becomes the auto/manual generator result OUT (C102) based on the A/M pushbutton or if the auto switch SWA (L112) is a 1.

HARD MANUAL LIMITING:

This parameter HML (L122) when set to a 1 applies the output limits to the final output of the auto/manual generator, effecting both the manual pushbutton and the controller’s result.

REVERSE VALVE:

This parameter provides information for the various control displays to indicate which direction the control output must go to close the final control element. A "1" indicates that 20mA closes the valve.

ALARM LIMITS:

These parameters PL1 (C103) and PL2 (C104) are the points in engineering units at which the alarms are triggered.

ALARM DEAD BAND:

Parameter ADB (C105) sets the activation/deactivation gap for the alarm. This value in engineering units defines an area of hysteresis at the alarm point.

3-36

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

ALARM TYPE:

The AIX parameter (B335) defines the alarm action interpretation of the two alarm limits.

0 - PA1 HIGH (PV > PL1)

PA2 LOW (PV < PL2)

1 - None

2 - PA1 HIGH (PV > PL1)

PA2 not effected

3 - PA1 not effected

PA2 LOW (PV < PL1)

PA2 HI-HI (PV > PL2)

5 - PA1 LOW (PV < PL1)

PA2 LO-LO (PV < PL2)

6 - PA1 HI-DEV (DEV > PL1)

PA2 LO-DEV (DEV < PL2)

TREND RATE:

This parameter(B336) defines the sampling rate of the PV trend displayed in seconds. The legal values are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, and 60 seconds. If any other value is set it will be reduced to one of these values.

TREND MODE:

This parameter(B337) specifies the mode of the PV trend.

0 - use instantaneous samples

1 - average of 1 second samples

2 - maximum of 1 second samples

3 - minimum of 1 second samples

DISPLAY MODE:

This parameter(B339) controls the type of point display which will be used with this CON module.

If a "0" name is treated as a 10 character entry, when state is "1" the name is in reverse video, when state is "0" the name appears normal. If a "1" name is divided into two 5 character words, the first 5 display when state is "0", the second 5 when state is "1".

ALARM ENABLE:

When this value is "1" the HORN (L65) bit is set when the corresponding state goes from "0" to"1" and the displayed name flashes as long as STATE = "1" and ALARM ACKNOWLEDGE = "0".

ALARM ACKNOWLEDGE:

This data is always forced to "0" when STATE is "0". When STATE is "1" and ALARM ENABLE is

"1" this point should be set to "1" to stop the flashing of the displayed name and to indicate that the alarm condition has been recognized.

MODIFY DISABLE:

This will inhibit the operator from modifying the STATE of individual points through pushbutton activity when set to "1". When set to "0" the operator can toggle the state of a point with the pushbuttons.

DISPLAY:

This is the index number for the display that provides access through the status module.

3.4.8 PARAMETER DISPLAY MODULE

Eight Parameter Display Modules are present in the controller. Each module provides display and pushbutton access to any three parameters in the database.

TITLE:

This is a 10 character name which is associated with the module.

POINT NAME 1, 2 and 3:

Each module allows three 10 character names to be associated with the three individual parameters of the module.

POINT DESIGNATOR 1, 2 and 3:

These designates the three datapoints to be included in this module. Any database datapoint specifier is allowed.

MODIFY DISABLE:

When this value is "1" the members of this module can not be changed through the pushbutton activity. The values of these parameters are only for display purposes. When this value is "0" the values of the module members can be altered by the operator when the module is displayed.

3.4.9 TREND MODULES

Eight Trend Modules are present in the controller. Each module provides storage of the last 80 samples of the specified input. The available parameters are shown below. The first four modules are attached to the CON modules if the CON modules’ trend rate parameter is non-zero. As long as the trend is attached to the CON module the height rate, mode, span, zero and designator parameters are overwritten with the values from the CON module.

TREND ZERO and SPAN:

The values assigned to these parameters indicate the lowest value in engineering units displayed as 0 in the trend and the SPAN in engineering units which corresponds to the height of the trend display. Samples outside this range will be recorded as at the limits.

TREND POINT DESIGNATOR:

This designates the datapoint to be recorded. It can contain any L, B, C or H datapoint specifier.

When controlled by the CON module this parameter is set to the datapoint specifier which is the

PV of the associated CON module.

TREND ENGINEERING UNIT:

Each trend provides for a 10 character word to indicate the units of measure which are being trended.

TREND TAG:

Each trend allows for a 10 character name to be associated with it.

TREND RATE:

This parameter defines the recording rate in seconds of the selected datapoint. Legal values are 1,

2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30 and 60 seconds. If a value which is not legal is entered it will be reduced to the nearest legal value. A value of 0 turns off the trending.

TREND MODE:

This parameter specifies the sampling method used to record the selected datapoint. The datapoint is continually sampled at a one second rate regardless of the trend rate value. The recorded value can then be a representation of all samples between recording periods.

The available representations are:

0 - Instantaneous value

1 - Average value

2 - Maximum value

3 - Minimum value

TREND HEIGHT:

This specifies the displayed height assigned to a full scale sampled value. This in turn determines the resolution of the trend and the size of the trend in the front display. When controlled by a CON module this value is fixed at 50.

MODULAR CONTROLLER QUICK START

3.4.10 TOTALIZER MODULES

Eight Totalizer Modules are present in the controller. Each module provides a "totalization" (integration) of the specified input. Sampling occurs once a second whenever the input parameter contains a legitimate datapoint specification.

INPUT:

This designates the datapoint to be totalized. It can contain any B, C or H datapoint, i.e., C100 for totalizing CON0 PV.

SCALE FACTOR:

The value of the input is multiplied by this parameter prior to being summed to the running total.

The parameter is used for both scaling and time interval integration.

For example, if AI0 is in M gallon/day, in order to totalize in K gallon the Scale Factor (SF) would be:

SF

= Units X Time Base

Conversion Conversion

SF

= 1000 K gal X 1 day X 1 hr X 1 min X 1 sec = 1000 = .01157

M gal 24 hrs 60 mins 60 sec sample 86400

ROLLOVER VALUE:

This parameter specifies the maximum value of the totalizer. When the total reaches this value it is reset to 0.0 and continues totalizing. This must be a positive number.

DROPOUT VALUE:

When the value of the input is less than this parameter, no change in the total will occur.

RESET:

When this parameter is a "1" the total will be forced to 0.0 and the parameter returned to "0".

ACTUAL TOTAL:

This parameter indicates the integer value of the total accumulation.

OUTPUT PULSE:

This parameter is pulsed to a "1" for one scan each time the ACTUAL TOTAL reaches the ROLL-

OVER VALUE.

TAG:

This parameter allows a 10 character name to be associated with each totalizer.

ENGINEERING UNITS:

This parameter allows a 10 character word to indicate the units of measure for each totalizer.

SCAN INDEX:

This parameter SCAN (B01) determines the frequency of execution for the operation FIX selected.

The repetition period equals B01 x 50 mS. This value should be set to the smallest value possible which doesn’t cause OVR (B04) to increment.

SCAN FILE OVERRUN COUNTER:

This parameter OVR (B04) is incremented whenever the execution of the control algorithm exceeds the repetition period specified in SCAN (B03). Each time an increment occurs,one pass of the control algorithm is skipped. In order to stop overruns, increase the value of SCAN.

LINK LIST LOAD:

The LLO parameter (B16) loads the Control Strategy Wirelists. Configuring this value forces the

FIX to 0 and installs the selected wirelist and any associated database changes, then returns the value to 0. If a non-existent control strategy is selected the default wirelist is loaded.

DISPLAY PROGRAM:

The DSPL parameter (B05) designates which display is presented on the first screen.

DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS INDEX:

The BRIGHT parameter (B12)controls the display screen intensity. Values from 0 to 7 determine brightest to dimmest intensity.

BACKGROUND PROGRAM:

The BACK parameter (B08) is used to implement the E-Z TUNE algorithm. When set to "1"

EASY-TUNE operation is initiated.

BACKGROUND SCAN INDEX:

The BSCAN parameter (B06) directs how often the display is renewed and the period for executing the EASY-TUNE algorithm when active. The period realized equals B06 x B03 x 50mS.

BACKGROUND OVERRUN COUNTER:

The BOVR parameter (B07) is incremented whenever the execution time of the display program and background program exceed the repetition rate realized by SCAN x BSCAN. Each time an increment occurs, one pass of the display update and background program is skipped. In order to stop overruns, increase the value of either SCAN or BSCAN.

If Model Number 53MC51X1 has been purchased, the controller is shipped from the factory loaded with the FCS CS 1 for Single Loop Standard PID. Other strategies are described in Section 4.3 of

Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000 . Figure 4-1 is a block diagram of this control strategy.

The default CS 1 set-up is as follows:

1. Flexible Control Strategy CS1 enabled.

(B00 = 1)

2. Proportional Band = 100%

3. No Reset

4. No Derivative

5. No Alarms

6. PV input, 1-5 V is 0 - 100%

7. Reverse mode. That is, it expects a control element such that increasing the control output increases the

PV.

4.1.1 CS 1 SINGLE LOOP PID DESCRIPTION

The "Standard PID" configuration of the Flexible Control Strategy (FCS) is designed to fulfill the requirements of a large majority of process applications. CS1 implements a standard feedback control loop which automatically controls a process variable (PV) at a predetermined setpoint (SP).

The process variable and the control signal output are the only essential signals in this configuration. CS1 is loaded from EPROM to set-up the FCS with a minimum of configuration effort. The user must only configure the proper ranges and setpoints for the particular application.

AI0 - Process Variable (PV)

AI1 - Remote Setpoint

AI2 - Additive Feed Forward Input

AI3 - Tracking Input

AO0 - Controller Output

AO1 - Retransmitted PV

DI0 - Force Output Tracking (Open Contact)

DI1 - Remote Setpoint Enable (Closed Contact)

DO0 - Process Alarm 1

DO1 - Process Alarm 2

4.1.2 SETTING UP THE STANDARD PID LOOP

All Single Loop 53MC5000’s are shipped from the factory with CS1 loaded. For instruments being installed for the first time, Steps 1, 2 and 3 are not required. If the state of the database is unknown Steps 1, 2 and 3 should be followed.

1. For a first time start-up, it is suggested that the database be set to default values. This is done by configuring B00 to load a default database. B00 is the Function Index (FIX) of the controller, which identifies the type of control strategy being executed. Entering 98 in B00 will load the default values. When the default process is complete, B00 will reset to 0 and the display will show the logo.

This means the 53MC5000 is in "Suspend mode" (B00=0) and the processor is halted.

2. With the 53MC5000 still in "Suspend" (B00=0), load the FCS set-up values for CS1 Standard

Single Loop PID from EPROM into controller RAM. This is done by setting B16=1. Other values in

B16 will load other strategy types (See Instruction Bulletin 53MC5000 ). B16 will always reset to 0 when the load is complete.

3. Set B00=1, which tells the controller to run the FCS strategy which has been loaded to operate as CS1 Standard PID.

At this point, the 53MC5000 is a functional controller with default spans and tuning parameters.

The user may configure parameters specific to the application as described below.

4.2.1 CS 20 TWO LOOP PID DESCRIPTION

The "Two Loop PID" configuration of the Flexible Control Strategy (FCS) is designed to fulfill the requirements of a large majority of process applications. CS20 implements two standard feedback control loops which automatically controls two process variables (PV) at predetermined setpoints

(SP). The process variables and the control signal outputs are the only essential signals in this configuration. CS20 is loaded from the EPROM to set-up the FCS with a minimum of configuration effort. The user need only configure the proper ranges and setpoints for a particular application.

Loading CS20 generates the softwiring required and initializes AI1’s Engineering Span to 100.0
