1. PRESENTATION
1.1. General features:
This manual describes the setup and operation of the SIEMENS S7-224 PLC intended for the management of URBACO’s pneumatic- or hydraulic-driven automatic retractable bollards.
This industrial-type PLC includes 14 on-board inputs, 10 on-board outputs, communication series port and LED indicators for status of inputs, outputs and PLC.
The PLC on its own can run one complete access site with weekly timer (with a TD200 or centralisation programme). Input and output expansions can be added onto the PLC to run up to 4 complete access sites.
The use of upper and lower limit switches is mandatory. They act as a safety device for operationality as well as for the detection of defaults.
In the non-centralised version, a TD200 text display unit allows for the analysis of defaults, the adjustment of programme variables, as well as the setting of weekly timer (real time clock).
In the centralised version, the PLC is connected via its RS485 port to onsite network. This network may contain several PLCs. A PC computer permits real time viewing of all details on any access location.
Directions for the good use of an access site controlled by automatic retractable bollard(s)
SAFETY RULES FOR THE GOOD USE OF AN ACCESS SITE CONTROLLED BY AUTOMATIC
RETRACTABLE BOLLARD(S)
So as to ensure the good operationality of the access, for safety reasons URBACO recommends:
•
To set up vertical signposts warning of an obstacle («retractable bollard») ahead.
•
To equip automated systems with position lights showing bollard status (red and flashing amber)
For access control systems, URBACO recommends that vehicle be obliged to stop before the bollard
and wait for its complete retraction underground (and for the light to turn from red to flashing amber if the access site has position lights) prior to driving on.
For access sites programmed with bollards automatically rising once a vehicle has passed, following vehicles must not try and drive through the access site one after the other without each stopping before the bollard, making sure it is retracted and respect signal given by position light (if such a device has been installed).
INFORMATION AND TRAINING OF USERS
The person(s) in charge of the access site is (are) bound to inform users on how to operate and utilise the access. URBACO will not be held responsible for any damage due to mishandling or to disrespecting safety rules.

5. THE PROGRAMME CARTRIDGE
5.1. Presentation:
The programme cartridge is an EEprom storing the PLC operation programme. It is used to upgrade the programme.
5.2. Programme Update and Reloading Procedure:
1) Turn the PLC switch on "STOP"; only the orange "STOP" LED should be on.
2) Completely turn PLC off. All LEDs should be switched off.
3) Remove plastic cover located underneath the PLC LEDs; the EPROM receptacle is now accessible and a mini connector should be visible.
4) Insert EPROM memory cartridge inside the receptacle (polarisation).
5) Turn the PLC back on.
6) The orange "STOP" must always be on. Turn the PLC switch on "RUN".
7) Wait for a few seconds while the content of the EEPROM memory is downloading into the PLC’s main memory.
8) When downloading is finished, the PLC restarts its operation cycle and the “RUN” LED should be on.
The programme is now downloaded.
Note: The memory cartridge must not stay inside the receptacle; it must be removed once down-
/uploading process is over or else configuration may be lost (TD200 or centralisation) in case of a power cut. Once power is back on, the default programme and specifications contained in the cartridge would be reloaded into the PLC and zap previous configuration.

6. PLC PROGRAMMING
Two programming principles are possible:
For the non-centralised version, programming via TD200 terminal. This will be done directly on the PLC onsite.
For centralised version, via PC with Σ ygma II, a centralisation software developed by URBACO. This is a remote-activated operation done through the Internet.
6.1. The TD200 Terminal:
6.1.1. Presentation:
The TD 200 terminal is plugged in DB9 on the PLC.
With this terminal, you can modify position light operation mode, change time lapse delays, visualise operation defaults and change automatic opening time frames. It may be connected permanently or just in case. It consists of a display screen (2 lines of 20 characters each) and function keys.

6.2. Centralisation :
A PLC is centralised when it is linked to a site network via signal converters all the way to a PC computer possessing the Σ ygma2 supervision software.
The network may be structured in different ways (RS485 wired, fibre optical, IP…).
This paragraph does not aim at giving all details on possible centralisation types but is intended to give a hint or a quick overview on what a supervision network is all about.
The PLC has a RS485 port permitting data exchange with the Σ ygma II software. All information on access location is transferred in real time to the software (limit switches, defaults, loops, etc) Moreover, this software can download time frames, opening actuation orders as well as internal variables inside the
PLC.
Structural principle of network between a PLC and the computer (PC):
The network comprises converters and links.

RS232
COMPUTER
This network makes the transfer of data feasible over a distance depending on communication type.
For further details, see the directions for use of the Σ ygma II centralisation software.

7. OPERATION
7.1. Power on:
(When all connections have been realised and when programme has been downloaded into PLC). The bollard is down (retracted).
The amber light is flashing.
If the loops are cleared, the red light flashes during time lapse delay before rise (programmable).
At the end of this period, the bollard rises.
The red light is flashing or remains steady depending on programme entered for this situation.
Once the bollard is upward, the red light is on steady red.
7.2. Power outage:
The bollard goes down (retracts).
When power is back, see §7.1.
7.3. Operation on an automatic descent actuation (normal passage):
The command for descent will only be considered if a vehicle is detected on presence/safety loop N°1. In this situation, the bollard immediately goes down (retracts), the vehicle passes through and the bollard rises back once the safety loops (B1 and B2) have been cleared and time lapse delay before rise
(depending on programme entered).
7.4. Operation: forced descent:
When the push button is engaged (I0.7=0), the bollard immediately goes down (retracts underground) and remains as such for as long as the button is engaged. When the push button is released, (I7=1), the bollard rises again as for a normal passage.
The push button also validates faults and enables system to re-start (see 7.15).
7.5. Operation on free exit:
If a vehicle presence is detected at the same time over the free exit loop and the safety loop N°2 for as long as 2 seconds (adjustable), the bollard will automatically go down (retract).
The bollard rises again as for a normal passage.
7.6. Safety during bollard rise:
When the bollard is rising, any presence detected over safety loops will result in the immediate descent of the bollard for as long as the upper limit switch is not activated.
7.7. Locking in the upward position:
As soon as the upper limit switch is activated (bollard in the upward position), the bollard is locked up and no detection on loops will trigger the bollard down.
7.8. Operation of compressor surveillance (for pneumatic installations):
A dry contact from the pressure gauge is used to control the length of time when the compressor is on duty. When the motor is on, the contact is closed; when the motor stops, the contact opens. As soon as the compressor starts, time lapse delay starts as well and if, after 3 minutes (or as programmed for centralisation) the compressor is still on, one will assume there is an air leak somewhere and operating will stop.

7.9. Compressor management (for pneumatic installations):
The compressor works on its own. The 230V power supply is continuous in normal operating mode. The pressure gauge integrated in the compressor controls the start / stop status of the compressor to maintain air pressure within the circuit.
7.10. Operation of the hydraulic group (for hydraulic installations):
Motor start / stop actuation is operated from the PLC. The group is only powered to make the bollard go up. When the upper limit switch is activated, power is supplied to the group for 1 second to pressurise circuit before it stops. The solenoid valve built in the hydraulic group circulates the oil between the receiver and the cylinder.
Detail of operation stages (standard group):
EV=1 and motor =1: the bollard rises
EV=1 and motor =0: the bollard is maintained upward
EV=0 and motor =0: the bollard goes down (retracts)
7.11. LED status indicators:
Each input and each output is associated with a LED showing status.
Three additional LEDs give indications on PLC status:
SF: switched off = normal. Switched on = serious malfunction within the PLC.
RUN: switched on = mode RUN, programme runs.
STOP: switched on = mode STOP, programme stops.
7.12. Fail-safe device (negative security):
For pneumatic installations, a solenoid valve (normally closed) is connected to the main solenoid valve exhaust. This solenoid valve is permanently powered (exhaust possible). In case of a power outage, exhaust is no longer possible and the bollard remains upward.
For hydraulic installations, a specific group is designed with solenoid valve (normally closed) and manual descent lever. The programme will also be specific.
7.13. Maximum number of bollards per access:
For pneumatic installations, the number of bollards is determined by:
1) The solenoids valves used. Each PLC output only tolerates a maximum of 2A current.
2) The type of compressor used. A table chart gives indications on how many bollards are suitable by compressor.
For hydraulic installations, the number of bollards is determined by:
1) The volume of oil taken from the group receiver for the whole circuit.
2) How much time it takes for the bollards to rise compared to applicable standards (max 10 seconds)
7.14. Position Lights:
Red Light:
- Steady when the bollard is upward.
- Flashing when the bollard is in motion as a standard, but adjustable with TD200 or centralisation.
Amber Light:
- Flashing when the bollard is down.
Note: Upper and lower limit switches are obligatory for the management of traffic (position) lights.

8. MAINTENANCE
No special maintenance is prescribed for the PLC. Technical checkups are however recommended every now and then to control the overall state of equipment (dust, moisture…), safety elements (vehicle detection, sensors), operationality of actuators (beepers, contactless cards…) as well as to tighten loose screws if necessary.
Periodicity of checkups is left to operator’s judgement depending on where the system is installed and how often it is on duty (intensive use or not).
