3 Section 1: Introduction Page 1 The 2800 compact operator interface is a programmable device designed for use with programmable logic controllers, ASCII devices, digital drives and motion controllers. This manual describes the features and operation specific to the Allen-Bradley ULTRA 100 & 200 Digital Servo Drives. The 2800 communicates with the ULTRA Drive using the Host Command Protocol. A list of all the supported commands can be found in Appendix C of this manual. When configured for RS-485, the 2800 can communicate with multiple Drives. In addition the 2800 supports the User Scale feature found in the ULTRA Master programming software. The 2800 OIT is fully programmable using ScreenMaker 2000d Windows based off-line software. The system engineer can customize each screen to fit the current application. Text can be combined with up to eight variable fields coming from data locations internal to the drive. Variables can also be defined as read only or read /write with high and low limit values. The Next and Prev keys allow the operator to navigate through screens in an order predetermined by the system engineer. The numeric keypad allows the operator to easily modify integer and floating point values. The four function keys can be redefined to function differently on every screen. The function keys can be custom labeled with a slip in legend tag, easily created using LegendMaker software. The 2800 utilizes Flash nonvolatile memory, the threat of losing the customized screens (up to 500) due to a power loss, dead battery, etc., is nonexistent. What are Screens & Fields? The 2800 is customized for a particular application by creating screens. A screen is similar to a canned message and may include variable information from the Drive. A group of text or a variable is referred to as a field. Each field has an assigned size and position within a screen. Eight field types are currently available and may be combined in any combination to produce a screen. The Eight field types are listed here. Static Text Scrolling Text Horizontal Scrolling Text Vertical Drive Text This field allows fixed character strings to be displayed within a screen. The field size and position are user defined. This field allows fixed character strings to scroll right to left within a defined window. The window size and position are user defined. This field allows lines of fixed character strings to scroll bottom to top within a defined window The window size and position are user defined. This field is used to display the User Scale Text variable from within the Drive. Entry is not allowed in this field.

4 Section 1: Introduction Page 2 Drive Data This field will display variable information from within the Drive. The address from which data will be retrieved is specified when the field is created. Signed and unsigned integer values plus floating point formats are supported. Modification to the value may be enabled or disabled. Individual data value limits are also set for each Drive Data field created. If enabled, values are entered by first moving the focus to this field by pressing the Select key, a new value is then keyed in and the Enter key pressed. Note: If User Scale is enabled with an integer type variable such as Index Distance, please be aware of the following: If a decimal value is specified as shown here (Dbl.Decimal.3), then the entry and display of the variable is treated as a floating point value, however, the limit values remain in integer format and in this example would indicate maximum and minimum counts. Assume 1000 counts equals 0.25 inches of travel and the range of travel is from, negative ten inches to sixty inches. The Position User Scale Value set using the Ultra Master programming software would be To determine the limit values the following formulas were used: Maximum Entry Value: 60 / (0.25 / 1000) = 240,000 Minimum Entry Value: -10 / (0.25 / 1000) = -40,000 The Negate check box will force a positive entered value to be converted to a negative value before it is written to the Ultra Drive. Likewise, when a negative value is read from the Ultra Drive it will be converted to a positive number before it is displayed. The function would be used only when the variable must always be negative. For example, if the motor must always turn in the negative direction, the operator would not have to remember to press the negative key when entering a speed, distance, or position.

5 Section 1: Introduction Page 3 Data Set (Recipe) This field appears as fixed text within a screen. The field can be used in a three different ways. As a simple Data Set: When the field is created an address and a data value are specified in addition to the field text. Moving the focus, via the Select key, to this field and pressing the Enter key will cause the data value to be written to the assigned address within the Ultra Drive. Multiple Data Set fields may be used within a single screen to perhaps set various motor speeds or positions. As an Increment/Decrement Function: When the field is created an address, Increment/Decrement value, and limit value are specified in addition to the field text. If the Usage is set to Increase value then moving the focus, via the Select key, to this field and pressing the Enter key will cause the increment value to be added to the data value currently read from the Ultra Drive. If the addition of the two values exceeds the limit value then a warning message is displayed and the variable in the Ultra Drive is left unchanged. Focus in not automatically removed from the field so that the additional increments may be executed. Focus is removed by pressing either the Cancel or Select key. If the Usage is set to Decrease value then operation is identical except that the decrement value is subtracted from the Ultra Drive data value. As a Recipe: Up to twenty data sets can be assigned to create a recipe field. The field will appear on the screen like a single Data Set, however, selecting and pressing the Enter key will cause all set values to be written to the Ultra Drive in the order that they listed.

6 Section 1: Introduction Page 4 Bit Status When creating this field a mask value and data value for a Drive variable are specified. Two character strings are also typed in, one for the true state of the bits and one for the false state of the bit. One of the two character strings will then be displayed depending on the status of the specified data value versus the mask value. If enabled this field will also function as a bit modify. Moving the focus, via the Select key, to the field and pressing the Enter key will cause the bits to be complimented by the An application note describing this field can be found in the 2800 Hardware manual. Multi-State Indicator This field monitors an assigned integer variable and displays text associated with a specified value. Up to 25 Value/Text Strings can be specified. Entry is allowed with this field. After selecting this field the Next and Prev keys can be used to scroll through the text strings, When the desired text string is displayed, the Enter key can be pressed which will cause the value associated with the text string to be written to the Drive.

7 Section 2: Loading Communication Drivers Page 5 The 2800 is shipped from the factory with manufacturing test code installed. The first step in preparing the 2800 for active duty is to load a communication driver into it. In this case the driver is for the Allen-Bradley ULTRA 100 and 200 Digital Servo Drives. The Communication Driver File is loaded into the 2800 using ScreenMaker 2000d configuration software running on your personal computer. If you have not yet created a screen application simply open a new project. The window below will pop-up. Select OK to proceed. The 2800 is connected to the personal computer is via a communication cable (Quartech cable ). The specifications for this cable can be found in Appendix A. Prepare the computer for download by selecting the Communications heading, then Download Communication Interface from the drop down menu. The following window will pop-up.

8 Section 2: Loading Communication Drivers Page 6 Before proceeding the 2800 must be prepared for the download. A four position DIP switch is accessible through the rear cover of the Applying power to the 2800 with Dip Switch 4 set to the ON position (up), will placed it into System File Download mode. Pressing the Next key The 2800 will first display: Then: will trigger this screen: QUARTECH CORPORATION 2800 SERIES V1.00 UNIT SERIAL NUMBER SYSTEM FILE LOAD PRESS THE NEXT KEY TO PROCEED SYSTEM FILE LOAD WAITING FOR COMMAND FROM COMPUTER The 2800 is now waiting for the computer to begin the download process. Selecting Connect will produce the pop up window below. This is just a reminder so you can verify the cable is connected and the 2800 is ready. If all is well the 2800 screen will now display: ONLINE WITH COMPUTER Click OK to proceed. From this pop-up window select: Download Communication Interface Within a couple minutes the download will be complete. The 2800 will again display: WAITING FOR COMMAND FROM COMPUTER Remove power from the 2800 and set DIP switch 4 to the OFF position (down). The 2800 is now ready to accept an Application Screen File. The next section describes the procedure.

9 Section 3: Loading Screen Files Page 7 The first step in preparing a 2800 for active duty is to download a Communication Driver File into it. That process was discussed in the prior section. The second step is to download an Application Screen File. The file is downloaded to the 2800 using ScreenMaker 2000d configuration software running on your personal computer. To perform a download the project must be open. From the Communication heading select Send to OIT. The window below will pop-up. The 2800 does not currently support modem downloading. Select the PC Serial Port that will be used.

10 Section 3: Loading Screen Files Page 8 Before selecting Connect, insure the 2800 is connected to the computer and ready to receive the download. The 2800 is connected to the computer is via a serial communication cable, Quartech # To ready the 2800 for downloading the screen file, hold down the Enter key while applying power to it. The 2800 will display: SCREEN FILE LOAD Next = PROCEED Prev = RESTART Pressing the Next key will trigger this screen: SCREEN FILE LOAD WAITING FOR COMMAND FROM COMPUTER Pressing the Prev key will cause the 2800 to perform a warm boot which is just like re-powering. If the 2800 is ready, then click the Connect button on the ScreenMaker 2000d window. The following window will pop-up on the computer. If this is the initial download then insure the Send All Screens and Send Setup Information boxes are both checked. To initiate the project download click on the Send button. The Send Status bar graph will indicate the download progress. If a project is modified, ScreenMaker 2000d does allow you to download individual screens. To send an individual screen deselect the Send All Screens box and click on the screen you want to download.

11 Section 4: Screen Triggering Page 9 Assuming the 2800 has been successfully downloaded with both a Communication Driver and an Application Screen File it is ready for normal operation. An appropriate communication cable must be connected between the 2800 and ULTRA Driver. The communication cable is available from Quartech and is shown in Appendix C. When power is applied the 2800 will enter the normal Run Mode. Upon power-up the 2800 will display two informational screens. The first will indicate the part number and serial number of the unit. The second will indicate the driver type, firmware version level, and other programmed information such as interface type and baud rate. Here is an example of what you will see: QUARTECH CORPORATION 2800 SERIES UNIT SERIAL NUMBER ALLEN-BRADLEY ULTRA 100 / 200 Ver 1.03 RS bps During the time while the 2800 is displaying the above screens it will also be attempting to trigger the lowest screen number contained in its memory. It does this by writing the screen number into screen trigger word one. The 2800 incorporates dual screen trigger words which allows two screens to be displayed at the same time. what exactly are screen trigger words? The screen trigger words are two internal addresses that hold the number of the screen currently triggered. During normal operation the 2800 will monitor these two words to determine what screens should be displayed. Writing a screen number into either of these words will cause the 2800 to display the appropriate screen. There are three ways that a screen number can be written to a screen trigger word.! The Next and Prev keys can write to a screen trigger word.! A function key can be configured to write to a trigger word.! A Data Set field can be configured to write to a trigger word. But why use two trigger words? The use of two triggers words is most effective when the trigger words are variable locations within the host device, and the host device can write values into the triggers. This is not the case with the ULTRA 100/200 driver, however, some creative uses are possible. When using more than one trigger word, care and planning is critical for success. Screen settings are important when using two screen triggers because the settings can greatly affect the overall appearance of the 2800 display when both triggers contain valid screen numbers. Things to consider when using both screen trigger words. When a screen is created using ScreenMaker 2000d several attributes will accompany the screen file. One of these attributes determines the impact this screen will have on a screen being displayed from the other trigger word. This attribute is the choice of one of three affects designated CLEAR, COVER, and OVERLAY. CLEAR: If the screen is configured as clear, the entire 2800 display will be cleared before this screen is displayed. This allows only one screen to appear on the display even if another screen was previously opened from the other trigger word. The screen triggered by the other trigger word is not destroyed, only hidden. If this new screen is closed by writing a zero to the trigger word, the screen triggered by the other trigger word will reappear. (Kind of like Windows!)

12 Section 4: Screen Triggering Page 10 COVER: OVERLAY: If the screen is configured as cover, it will be written on top of the screen previously triggered from the other trigger word. Any parts of the display that are not used by the new screen will remain as they were (again, kind of like Windows). Note however, that any variable fields that show through from the previous screen cannot be accessed using the Select key. Only those variable fields on the cover screen can be accessed. This is identical to COVER with one exception. Any variable fields that completely show through from the other screen can also be accessed using the Select key. Methods of Screen Triggering Triggering screens to the 2800 display can be done in three different ways. The choice is up to the system engineer developing the application. Any of these methods can be used alone or in any combination to create a user friendly application. Method 1: Screen Triggering via the Next and Prev keys The Next and Prev keys can be used to link screens together in a predefined sequence. When a screen is created using ScreenMaker 2000d software, two linking screen numbers can be attached, one to the Next key and one to the Prev key.! If a value of zero is set for the link number then the key will be ignored.! If a legal screen number is set then pressing the key will cause the link number to be written to screen Trigger Word 1 resulting in the screen being displayed. Method 2: Screen Triggering via Data Set field As discussed previously, the 2800 will continuously monitor both screen trigger words. The Data Set field can be used to trigger a screen by placing the desired screen number into a trigger word. This allows for a simple way to create menu screens. Method 3: Screen Triggering via the Function keys The four function keys can be independently configured within each screen to control a particular bit or word in the Drive. Function keys can also be configured to act as a screen trigger that can control either or both screen trigger words. When a configured function key is pressed it can:! close a screen by writing a zero to the appropriate screen trigger word.! open a new screen by writing the screen number to the appropriate screen trigger word.! leave either screen trigger word unaffected. Note: This feature is available only when the CLEAR or COVER screen attribute is selected. The function keys are not operable when the OVERLAY screen attribute is selected.

13 Section 5: Key Definitions Page 11 The 2800 keypad is made up of twenty tactile feedback keys used for navigation, control, and data entry. Select Key This key is used to select a variable field you want to modify or initiate action from. Within this document we refer to this as assigning focus. Each time the Select key is pressed, a flashing block character will be displayed. Depending on the field type, the character will be over the left most character (Drive Data) or over the entire field (Data Set, Bit Status, Multi-State Indicator). As the Select key is pressed, focus will move from variable field to variable field in the order that they were created. When the Select key is pressed and no additional variable fields exist, the flashing cursor will move off screen. If the Select key is pressed but no variable fields are accessible the following message will momentarily display. NO ENTRY ALLOWED IN THIS SCREEN Enter Key This key is used to initiate the writing of a value to the Drive.! After modifying the value in a Drive Data field, the Enter key is pressed to initiate the writing of the new value to the Drive. If writing is successful, focus will be removed from this field and the cursor will move off screen.! If a Data Set field has been selected, pressing the Enter key will write the assigned value to the Drive. If writing is successful, focus will be removed from this field and the cursor will move off screen. If more than one variable is specified the message WRITING RECIPE DATA will appear on the display until the process is complete. If this field is configured as a Increment or Decrement type then after pressing the Enter key the 2800 will first read the current value from the Drive, add or subtract the assigned value then write the new value back to the Drive. The focus will remain on this field until the Select key transfers it or the Cancel key is pressed..! If a Bit status field has been selected, pressing the Enter key will toggle the state of the target bits in the Drive which will also change the character string displayed. Focus will then be removed from the field and the cursor will move off screen.! If a Multi-State Indicator has been selected, pressing the Enter key will write the value associated with the text currently displayed to the Drive. The Next and Prev keys are used to scroll between choices offered by the Multi-State Indicator field. Cancel Key This key is used exit or back out of an operation.! If the Select key is being used to assign focus to a field, pressed the Cancel key will remove focus and move the cursor off screen.! If you are currently keying data into a field, pressing the Cancel key once will clear the entered field data leaving only a cursor. You may begin entering a new value. Pressing the Cancel key twice in a row will remove focus from the field.

14 Section 5: Key Definitions Page 12 -/Next &./Prev Keys These keys are dual function.! If the Select key has not placed focus on any variable fields then the -/Next and./prev keys are used for navigation. When a screen is created using ScreenMaker 2000d the system engineer has the option to assign a next and previous screen linking number. Refer to Section 4: Methods of Screen Triggering, to review this feature.! If the Select key has been used to place focus on a Drive Data field then the minus and decimal point function becomes active. Note however, these keys may be ignored if the field format does not support negative or decimal numbers. If focus has been placed on a Multi-State Indicator field then these keys allows scrolling through the field choices. Numeric Keys 0 through 9 These keys are used exclusively for entering values into Drive Data fields or entering field lock codes. Lock Key This key is used to access the global lock code activation / deactivation screen. The 2800 provides fifteen lock codes that can be specified during setup. When a Drive variable field is created using ScreenMaker 2000d, the designer can assign one of the lock codes to the field. When an operator tries to access a locked field a screen will pop up that prompts them for the lock code. Using the Lock key to deactivate a lock code allows the operator to access any field that uses that lock code with out re-entering it each time the field is accessed. In other words, it acts as a global lock override. Security locks are discussed in detail in Section 6. Function Keys These four keys are programmable function keys that can be re-defined for each screen created for the There are four different configurations that can be made for a key, or a key may be disabled. Within each screen the four keys may be configured differently. A function key can also be set to operate as a momentary pushbutton switch or maintained pushbutton switch. The configuration options are as follows: Pushbutton This configuration is used exclusively with the seven write only Drive variables listed here. Define Home Position Reset Drive Reset Faults Reset Peaks Remove Alignment Offset Start Index Start Homing Pressing the key will cause the assign function to be executed. Selector Switch This configuration is used exclusively with the dual state variables designated SS within the table in Appendix C. Pressing the key will toggle the variable between the 1" and 0" state Screen Trigger Bit Status This configuration allows the key to function as a screen trigger. Unlike the Next and Prev keys, this screen trigger can write to either Screen Trigger Word or both at the same time. For more information refer to Section 4, screen trigger method three. In this configuration the switch essentially becomes a Bit Set field without text but with the

15 Section 5: Key Definitions Page 13 additional feature that it can operate in three different a modes. The User Key configuration window is shown below. In these examples the F1 key will be configured to control the Host Drive Enable/Disable flag in the Ultra Drive. The Host Reference Help document identifies this variable as a single byte in length with only the least significant bit assigned, therefore, the Mask Value has the least significant bit set. Example 1: Example 2: Example 3: Assume Data Value least significant bit = 1, Momentary option selected. When the F1 key is pressed the 2800 will write the value 1" to the Drive. This is the enabled state. When the key is release no action will be taken. Assume Data Value least significant bit = 0, Momentary option selected. When the F1 key is pressed the 2800 will write the value 0" to the Drive. This is the disabled state. When the key is release no action will be taken. Assume Data Value least significant bit = 1, Maintained option selected. When the F1 key is pressed the 2800 will read the current value of this variable from the Drive, compliment the least significant bit the write the result to the Drive. When the key is release no action will be taken. The switch functions as a push-on / push-off selector switch. Remember, each User Key may be configured differently on each screen created!

16 Section 5: Key Definitions Page 14 Jog Button If Momentary: If Maintained: This configuration allows a Function key to control the Velocity Setpoint variable and can be either momentary or maintained The following examples explain the operation of each mode. When the switch is pressed the specified value is written to the Velocity Setpoint variable in the Ultra Drive. When the switch is released, the value zero is written to the variable. When the switch is pressed the current value of the Velocity Setpoint variable is read from the Ultra Drive. If the current value is equal to the specified value then the value zero is written to the Ultra Drive. If the current value does not match the specified value then the specified value is written to the Ultra Drive. Since all four function keys can be configured as Jog Buttons it is possible to have multiple jog speeds and directions from a single screen. For example you may configure the keys as Fast Jog Forward, Slow Jog Forward, Fast Jog Reverse, and Slow Jog Reverse. Notice: The Jog Button function will not cause movement unless the Host Drive Enable/Disable Flag and Setpoint Control Enable Flag are both enabled and the Host Indexing Control Flag is disabled.

17 Section 6: Fault Screen Trigger Page 15 The 2800 can be configured to automatically trigger a screen when a drive fault occurs. The Drive Options box under Setup/OIT allows a mask value to be entered that is applied to the Fault Status Variable (opcode 135). If a mask value is set, the 2800 will read the Fault Status variable every five seconds. If a non zero value results after applying the mask then the fault screen will be triggered. Once triggered, the fault screen can not be re-triggered until the 2800 detects the original faults cleared. Tip: Using integer trigger two as the fault trigger source will allow you to display the fault screen without destroying the current screen being displayed. To close the fault screen and return to the original screen, a zero must be written to integer trigger two. This can be done with a Data Set field of a Function key configured as a screen trigger The fault mask is thirty two bits long. Bit zero is the right most bit. The following list of faults was obtained from the Host Reference Help file that is included with the Ultra Master software package. Bit 0 I/O +24VDC Overcurrent Bit 1 Encoder +5VDC Overcurrent Bit 2 Encoder +7VDC Overcurrent Bit 3 Motor Overtemperature, Thermostat Bit 4 IPM Fault Bit 5 Channel IM Line Break Bit 6 Channel BM Line Break Bit 7 Channel AM Line Break Bit 8 Bus Undervoltage Bit 9 Bus Overvoltage Bit 10 Illegal Hall State Bit 11 Sub-processor Unused Interrupt Bit 12 Main Processor Unused Interrupt Bit 13 N/A Bit 14 N/A Bit 15 N/A Bit 16 Excessive Average Current Bit 17 Motor Overspeed Bit 18 Excessive Following Error Bit 19 Motor Encoder State Error Bit 20 Master Encoder State Error Bit 21 Motor Thermal Protection Bit 22 IPM Thermal Protection Bit 23 Velocity Error Bit 24 Commutation Angle Error Bit 25 N/A Bit 26 Axis Not Homed Bit 27 Enabled with No Motor Selected Bit 28 Motor Selection not in Table Bit 29 N/A Bit 30 N/A Bit 31 CPU Communication Error

18 Section 7: Special Recipe Screen Page 16 The standard Recipe Field in the 2800 allows up to twenty different locations in the drive to be modified at one time. There may be special cases where twenty elements are not enough. One solution is to create more than one Recipe Field within a screen. The operator would be required to select and enter each field individually. A second solution is to use screen 500. Screen 500 allows up to eight Recipe Fields to be link together so that the operator executes a single select/enter procedure. For this screen to function properly the following requirements must be meet.! The screen may contain one Static Text Field and up to eight Recipe Fields. If any other type of field is included or if more than one Static Text Field is included then a fatal error will occur.! The Static Text Field must be the first field created. When a screen file is transferred to the 2800, the fields are sent in the order they were created. It is possible to change the field order using the Bring to Front, Send to Back icons in ScreenMaker 2000d. When a field is selected the icons become enabled. Clicking the Bring to Front icon will make the selected field the last field sent to the Clicking the Send to Back icon will make the selected field the first field sent to the 2800.! The first Recipe Field created is the only active Recipe Field. It will automatically be linked to all other Recipe Fields in the screen. When it is selected and the enter key is pressed all recipe elements will be written to the drive in the order they were created.! The screen must be triggered from screen trigger 1. If triggered from screen trigger 2 it will operate like any other screen, i.e., the Recipe Fields will be independent. If the screen does not meet the above requirements then the fault screen shown here will be displayed. This is a fatal error that will cause the 2800 to cease communication with the drive. ** FAULT DETECTED ** INVALID RECIPE LINK IN SCREEN 500 The Recipe Fields that are linked to the active Recipe Field can not be selected an therefore do not need any field text, however, when viewing the screen with ScreenMaker 2000d it is not easy to find a field that does not have any text. Note: ScreenMaker 2000d Version 1.01 and later allows write only fields to be used in Recipe Fields. The write only fields can be identified in Appendix C by the field designation PB and include such fields as Reset Faults, and Start Index. It is recommended that these fields not be the first element in a Recipe.

19 Section 8: Security Locks Page 17 he 2800 allows a security lock to be applied to variable fields on an individual basis. Up to 15 separate lock codes may be designated. The Lock Data window is accessed through the Setup OIT menu. When a variable field is created using ScreenMaker 2000d any one of the locks may be assigned. When a operator attempts to access a locked field a screen will pop-up requiring them to enter the correct lock code. This is the pop-up security screen ***FIELD SECURITY*** ENTER LOCKCODE: _ Cancel = EXIT The operator must enter all four characters of the lock code. A lock code is comprised of the characters zero through nine, the minus sign, and the decimal point in any combination. This allows for 20,735 possible lock codes. Blind entry is used meaning the characters keyed in are not displayed, however, an asterisk is displayed for each entry so that the operator has some visual feedback. If an invalid lock code is entered this screen will be displayed for a moment, then the current triggered screen(s) will reappear. ***FIELD SECURITY*** ACCESS DENIED...

20 Section 9: LCD Contrast Adjustment Page 18 If the correct lock code is entered then access to the field is granted. Once the field is exited the lock is reset so that re-entry into the field will require re-entry of the lock code. Locks are generally used so that only authorized personnel can make changes to Drive variables. If an operator is required to modify a number of variable, or modify a single variable often then being required to re-enter the lock code each time can become a burden. The 2800 allows a global override to be activated on an individual lock code basis. Access to the global override feature is gained by pressing the Lock key on the When the Lock key is pressed this screen will be displayed. **GLOBAL SECURITY*** ENTER LOCKCODE: _ Cancel = EXIT The operator can enter the four character lock code. Like the field lock, blind entry is used. Assuming a valid lock code is entered and override has not been previously activated, the following screen will display: GLOBAL LOCK OVERRIDE IS: - DEACTIVATED-- Enter = ACTIVATE Cancel = EXIT If the Enter key is pressed the override will be applied, the previously triggered screen(s) will reappear. The operator can now access any field that uses that particular lock code in any screen without being required to enter the lock code. The override will remain activated until the unit is restarted through either re-powering or recovery from a fatal error. The operator may also deactivate the override by pressing the Lock key, then entering the lock code which will cause the following screen to be displayed: Summary: GLOBAL LOCK OVERRIDE IS: - ACTIVATED-- Enter = DEACTIVATE Cancel = EXIT! Fifteen lock codes are assignable using ScreenMaker 2000d. The lock code window is accessed via the path: Setup º OIT º Lock Data. A lock code is comprised of four characters. The characters zero through nine, the minus sign, and the decimal point are valid characters and may be used in any combination. A lock code having four zero characters will disable the lock. These are all valid lock codes: ! A lock code may be assigned to any of the following field types: Drive Data Field, Data Set Field, Bit Status Field, Multi-State Indicator Field, and Recipe Field.! A global override may be applied to individual lock codes using the Lock key on the All Liquid Crystal Display products require contrast adjustment if operated over a wide temperature range. The 2800

21 Section 9: LCD Contrast Adjustment Page 19 allows the LCD contrast to be adjusted from the front panel keypad.! To enter the contrast adjustment mode, press the Cancel and Enter keys simultaneously. You must not be editing a variable field to activate this mode.

Enclosure Door Cutout The 2800 is designed to be mounted in the door of an enclosure or on an operators console. Care must be taken to prevent metal chips or other conductive particles such as wire clippings from entering the unit. Failure to protect the unit may cause damage when power is applied and may void the warranty. A minimum clearance of six inches should be kept between the 2800 and any other device that generates heat. In the event that the internal enclosure temperature periodically exceeds 50 C (122 F), fans or a purge air system must be used. All Dimensions in inches

Wiring Considerations Care should be taken when routing DC power supply wires and the communication cable. Follow these guidelines for a trouble free installation. The DC power lines and communication cable must be kept away from AC power lines. Keep both at least one foot away from 115 VAC lines, and two feet away from higher voltage lines. This especially applies to the communication cable. If the cables must cross AC power lines, cross them at right angles (90 ). Keep the cables away from sources of high energy fields such as arc welders, AC motors, motor starters, servo controllers, generators, induction heaters, and transformers.

25 Appendix B: Error & Warning Messages Page 23 The 2800 is manufactured with pride and quality and is designed to provide years of trouble free operation. A vast number of diagnostic messages have been included it the 2800's firmware to inform the system engineer and operator of any abnormality that may occur. These messages fit into three general categories which are: Hardware Failure Configuration & Communication Errors Operational Status When an abnormality is encountered a message will appear on the display indicating the nature of the problem. Some conditions will cause the 2800 to halt operation. Other conditions will cause a warning message to display momentarily. Still other conditions will cause a message to simply remain on the screen until the abnormality is corrected. Below is a list of some of the messages that may appear. Category 1, Hardware Failure. These conditions will cause the 2800 to halt operation. Message displayed ROM CHECKSUM ERROR INTERNAL RAM ERROR EXTERNAL RAM ERROR FAILSAFE CODE xxxx TOO MANY VARIABLES MAXIMUM IS 8 INVALID RECIPE LINK IN SCREEN 500 Possible Cause This would occur if the units loaded firmware (Driver File) became corrupt. On power-up the 2800 performs a read/write verification on installed RAM memory. These messages would indicate a hardware failure. This message would only occur if firmware became corrupt, if an intermittent memory failure occurred, or maybe from a major power surge. This messages would occur if two screens are triggered and they contain more than eight variable fields. See Section 7 for information on the Special Recipe Screen. Category 2, Configuration & Communication Errors. The messages in this category may vary depending on the Host device that is being used with the In most cases these messages are self explanatory. Below is a sample of some common messages that may be displayed. Message displayed SETUP FILE NOT LOADED COMMUNICATION CABLE DISCONNECTED ---NOTICE--- FUNCTION KEY ABORT Possible Cause Setup file must be downloaded using ScreenMaker 2000d. RTS/CTS jumper is used to detect cable. This occurs if a function key is pressed and it is unable to perform the required variable read or write operation. It will appear momentarily.

26 Appendix B: Error & Warning Messages Page 24 Category 3, Operational Status. These are informative messages to advise the operator of a invalid entries, limitations, or general status. Message displayed Possible Cause ILLEGAL VALUE BELOW SET LIMIT ABOVE SET LIMIT These messages will display momentarily after an operator presses the Enter key in an attempt to write a new value to the Drive. The normal screen will return allowing the operator to attempt another entry. UNSUCCESSFUL DATA WRITE DATA ACCEPTED AFTER LIMITING TO MINIMUM DATA ACCEPTED AFTER LIMITING TO MAXIMUM VALUE AT MAXIMUM VALUE AT MINIMUM ALL SCREENS CLOSED SCREEN # ---- DOES NOT EXIST SCREEN # ---- IS ILLEGAL These messages will display momentarily after an operator presses the Enter key in an attempt to write a new value to the Drive. These messages will display momentarily after an operator presses the Enter key while focus is on a Data Set Field that is configured as Increment or Decrement and the result of this write would exceed the set limit. The value in both Trigger Words is zero so no screens are being displayed. If a value is placed into either Trigger Word that is greater than 500 or is equal to a non-existent screen number in the 2800, then one of these two messages would appear. Either will cause the 2800 to halt operations. COMMAND NOT ENABLED COMMAND INVALID WHEN DRIVE IS ENABLED These messages will display momentarily if the Drive does not allow the attempted action, generally a data write. NONSUPPORTED COMMAND FOR THIS DRIVE MODEL

27 Appendix C: Host Command Support Page 25 The following is an alphabetical list of the commands supported by the The Fields column indicates what field types the variable can be used with. Refer to the Allen-Bradley Host Command Reference File and ULTRA MASTER help file for detailed information regarding the various commands. An icon in ScreenMaker 2000d will activate the Host Reference help file if it resides on your computer. ScreenMaker 2000d will search the directory path C:\Iltramst\Host_Ref.hlp.
