1.1. DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROLLER AND COMPONENTS

- CONTROL BOARD

The main board is the core of the controller.

It is made of:

# a section which includes the microprocessor and the memory for the machine

control algorithm;

# an I/O section which allows interfacing with controlled devices by means of a plug-

in terminal.

# a section devised for interfacing with supervisory network and terminal which can

be installed in a remote position.

The control board represents the core of the system as it contains the

microprocessor which performs the control algorithm and the user interface

management. This board is connected to a pCO terminal and to any options.

- USER INTERFACE

Here below are listed all components of pCO control kit.

The terminal allows exchange of information by means of a LCD which displays the

values of all controlled parameters, selected set-points, alarm thresholds and in

general all data concerning the controlled variables in the specified formats.

Moreover, the display will showparticular messages any time an alarm condition

occurs. A keypad allowsthe setting of configuration parameters such as set-points,

alarm thresholds, alarm activation delays, etc. ...

The visible rubber buttons, which can be seen and pressed even when the front door

is closed, are the most important and the most used ones, above all when the

machine is ON.

The above quoted buttons are the following:

-1-

ON/OFF button;

-2-

Buzzer silencing

and

alarm deactivating

button;

-3-

info

This is the control board front panel. The 4X20 LCD on the panel displays the values

measured by the probes, working parameters and all necessary information for a

complete and precise regulation. The keypad allows access to the masks of the

programme and any modification required.

The display normally shows ambient temperature and humidity together with time

and date if clock option is present.

The pCO keypad is equipped with 15 buttons which, together with 4X20 LCD,

represent the interface between user and controller.

info

prog

Directly from the keypad it is possible to gain access to the main parameters or to

some parameters loops.

The "AL "message, on the upper right corner of the display, indicates an alarm

condition and allows the access to the masks where the exact type of alarm is

identified (for further information see below - ALARM button

)

All reading and setting values are displayed according to a “tree” structure the user

can enter by means of the controller keypad.

- pCO KEYPAD

GENERAL FUNCTIONING:

The first 10 buttons, the ones which disappear when closing the front door, are

meant to allowthe user to perform any kind of procedures from programming to

parameters simple display. The blue and red buttons have not been used.

Their function is

to select

the required loop (or chain of masks). The 5 rubber

buttons are used for programming and for parameters display. Once completed the

procedures in a loop, which has been selected by pressing a button, the user only

has to press another button to go at once to another loop.

The buttons share the following peculiar features :

-1- A green

LED

next to each button indicates which button has been selected. The

LED remains ON as long as that loop of masks is being used. The LED is important

in case the user does not remember which loop has been selected. It is important to

point out that only one out of the 8 grey buttons can be ON, therefore activation of

one automatically deactivates the others. Moreover, the user must remember that

the LEDs will never be all OFF, because the mask menu is always on display;

therefore, the LED next to the menu is ON even if no procedure is being performed

or after a RESET due to a blackout:

-2- In the programme itself there is an automatic function which brings

back on display the menu mask and, as a consequence, the LED next to the menu

button will be turned ON again.

menu'

If, for example, the last procedure has been the setting of the printer parameters, for

some seconds the last selected mask will remain on display and the LED next to the

printer button will remain ON:

Once the selected time has elapsed, the LED next to the printer button will be turned

OFF, the one next to the menu button will be turned ON and the temperature and

humidity values will be displayed.

-3- Each loop of masks follows an order. This means that by pressing a button the

first

mask of the corresponding loop will be displayed. If the user then moves to

other masks of the loop and by chance presses again the same button, the first

mask will be displayed again.

MENU BUTTON

Gives information on the temperature and humidity values measured by the selected

probes (the temperature probe is the only one to be always present and not

selectable).

The procedure to be followed is:

- press the MENU button once

Result of procedure:

- the display will showthe mask which indicates ambient temperature, ambient

humidity, time, date and condition of the machine.
