DIP Switch Settings 19 To determine the speed of the roller, you must know the diameter of your roller tube and the gear reduction ratio of the motor roller in order to calculate the speed based upon the Motor RPM you have selected with DIP Switch Positions 1 thru 5. The following charts list the Senergy roller speed codes and their corresponding gear ratios Speed Code Gear Reduction Ratio 10M 66.978 : 1 15M 45 : 1 20M 32.94 : 1 25M 27 : 1 35M 18.3 : 1 45M 15 : 1 Speed Code Gear Reduction Ratio 60M 10.98 : 1 75M 9 : 1 95M 6.818 : 1 125M 5 : 1 175M 3.66 : 1 215M 3 : 1 The formula for calculating the roller tube speed in meters per second is: Motor RPM Diameter (in meters) Speed (in meters/second second) = π Tube Gear Reduction 60 For example, for a 75M speed code roller with a 50 mm tube diameter running at 5000 RPM the calculation is: Speed = π. = 1.45 Meters/sec ACC/DEC DIP SWITCHES MOTOR ACCELERATION/DECELERATION The EZ-Qube acceleration/deceleration control is designed to provide a constant G force or ramp slope regardless of the speed for a given SPEED DIP switch setting. The selections made on the ACC/DEC DIP switches set both the acceleration and deceleration G force to the same value. The actual expected time elapsed for a given ramp selection is dependent on the motor RPM selected. The following chart shows the 16 possible ACC/DEC DIP switch settings for G force ramp and the expected ramp time to reach full speed (when accelerating) or to stop (when decelerating) when the motor speed is set to full speed regardless of ECO or BOOST modes.

The times shown in the ACC/DEC chart are for maximum speed. The expected ramp up or ramp down time when the speed setting is less than maximum value will also be shorter in proportion to speed setting. Let s say we set the ACC/DEC switches so that when our speed is set to maximum (i.e. 5800 RPM in Eco Mode) we want a 2.000 second ramp up and 2.000 second ramp down. The setting from the ACC/DEC chart for this is ON/ON/ON/OFF. The graph in Figure 6 shows the ramp up and ramp down curves for 2 motors one set to 100% speed and the other set for 50% speed. Also in this example the CONFIG Sw 8 is set to OFF indicating ramp up and ramp down slopes are equal. Because the switch settings give us a ramp, the slopes of the acceleration and deceleration speed lines are the same for each speed selection. In our example, at after running for 6 seconds, we turn the motors off to initiate the ramp down. Publication EZQ-1000 Rev 1.7- January 2018

DIP Switch Settings 21 FIGURE 6 - ACC/DEC RAMP EXAMPLE #1 EXAMPLE # 2 DECELERATION RAMP = 2 X ACCELERATION RAMP (CONFIG SW 8 = ON) We will use the same set-up as Example #1 with the exception of CONFIG Sw 8 set to ON. With this setting, the deceleration ramp time is 2 times the acceleration ramp time The graph in Figure 7 shows the ramp up and ramp down times for 100% speed and for 50% speed when the ACC/DEC switches are set to provide this 2.000 second ramp and CONFIG Sw 8 is set to ON indicating ramp down time is twice as long as the ramp up time. Because the switch settings give us a ramp, the slopes of the acceleration and deceleration speed lines are the same for each speed selection. In our example, after running for 6 seconds, we turn the motor off to initiate the ramp down. Publication EZQ-1000 Rev 1.7 January 2018

22 EZQUBE Reference Manual FIGURE 7 - ACC/DEC RAMP EXAMPLE #2 ACCELERATION / DECELERATION TIME FORMULA To find the Acceleration/Deceleration times for speed settings other than 100%, the following simple formula can be used to calculate the value: T = Speed Max RPM T Where: T = New Ramp Up/Down time Speed = New Speed in RPM from CONFIG SW 1 / SPEED SW 1 thru 4 Max RPM = 5800 for ECO Mode or 4200 for BOOST mode T Max = Time value from ACC/DEC chart For example, let s say we have selected the CONFIG and SPEED DIP switches for the 4000 RPM setting: CONFIG SW 1 = ON SPEED SW 4 thru 1 = OFF/OFF/ON/OFF And we have selected ACC/DEC DIP switches for the 1.200 second setting: ACC/DEC SW 4 thru 1 = ON/OFF/ON/OFF Our formula for ECO Mode looks like: T = 4000 1.2 = 0.828 sec 5800 Publication EZQ-1000 Rev 1.7- January 2018

Typical Wiring Diagrams 31 FIGURE 18 - WIRING DIAGRAM FOR SPEED OUTPUT TO NPN PLC INPUT MODULE Please note that the Speed Output is a pulsed signal whose frequency is proportional to the motor speed. See chart in section CONFIG SW 1 and SPEED Sw 1 thru 4 MDR Speeds on page 17 for details on the pulsed out frequency for each given DIP Switch speed setting. Publication EZQ-1000 Rev 1.7 January 2018

32 EZQUBE Reference Manual ANALOG SPEED CONTROL To enable analog speed control; each of the 4 DIP switches on Switch SPEED must be OFF and DIP switch 1 on Switch CONFIG must be OFF. The EZ-Qube must also have its RUN A and/or Run B signal energized in order for it to act upon the variable voltage applied to the 0-10V terminal. FIGURE 19-0-10V ANALOG INPUT WIRING DIAGRAM Please note that in Figure 19, the example shows an NPN version of EZ-Qube where an NPN signal to the Run A terminal and +24V connected to the Common terminal. For the PNP version, the Run A signal would be connected to +24V and the Common terminal connected to 0V. Also note that the combination of Run A and Run B signals as described in section Run A and Run B Inputs on page 13 still applies when using analog speed control. Publication EZQ-1000 Rev 1.7- January 2018

Typical Wiring Diagrams 33 It is also possible to make use of a potentiometer for speed regulation. This would allow setting the speed manually by adjusting the potentiometer as shown in Figure 20. FIGURE 20 - ANALOG POTENTIOMETER WIRING EXAMPLE Figure 20 shows an example of a PNP version of EZ-Qube with the Run A signal connected to +24V and the Common connected to 0V. For the NPN versions, Run A and/or Run B signals would connect to 0V and the Common terminal would connect to +24V. When using potentiometer control, you may achieve more precise and stable control if you power the potentiometer portion of the circuit from a power supply separate from the EZ-Qube power supply. Please note that this separate power supply and the EZ-Qube power supply should have their 0 DC terminals connected to provide a common DC reference. Publication EZQ-1000 Rev 1.7 January 2018

34 EZQUBE Reference Manual Figure 21 shows the motor speed in RPM versus the analog input voltage for both ECO and BOOST modes of operation. FIGURE 21 - SPEED VS. ANALOG VOLTAGE CHART The internal resistance of analog input is 100 kω. The current consumption of this input is 100 µa when the applied voltage is equal to 10V Publication EZQ-1000 Rev 1.7- January 2018

53 APPENDIX A INTERNAL JUMPER SETTINGS In the event you may need to change the electrical input or output type between PNP and NPN, there are internal jumpers located on the circuit board to do this. Modifying internal jumper settings involves removing the module s plastic housing cover. Handling the EZ-Qube module without the cover must only be done by personnel who have been adequately electrostatically discharged. Handling the module with the housing cover removed without proper ESD precautions may result in module damage. On the PCB of the EZ-Qube there are three (3) jumpers (see below in Figure 25): 1. Error Error output can be either PNP or NPN. 2. Speed Speed output can be either PNP or NPN. 3. Err.Type When Error is active, signal can be either ON or OFF. In all places, the jumper MUST be installed in either position in order for the module to function properly.
