You need:

To:

1747-5/04P
Processor

execute the sequence logic that controls the injection-molding machine. Embedded within this processor are the ERC2 algorithms that control the pressure and flow valves for the injection, clamp, and injector phases.

1746-FIO4V or 1746-FIO4I
Fast Analog Modules

accept position and pressure feedback in the form of 0-10 volt or 4-20 milliamp signals and provide analog signals out to the proportional valves that control the flow and pressure. You need at least one FIO4V or FIO4I module for each controlled phase (pressure and position inputs and pressure and flow outputs).

1746-BTM
Barrel Temperature Modules

provide temperature control for the barrel of the injection-molding machine. These modules contain specialized start-up and auto-tuning algorithms that have been optimized for barrel temperature control. Each module controls four temperature loops using either J or K thermocouples (grounded or ungrounded). The ladder logic and PanelView screens accommodate eight temperature loops. If you need more, copy this logic.

Important: The BTM modules do not have analog or digital outputs on them. You need to use 4 discrete or analog outputs from another output module for each BTM module.

PanelView 550/900 or RSView32 Screens

modify profiles, configure temperature setpoints, set/pull cores, examine alarm bits, view production data, etc.

Pro-Set 200 Software,which contains:

• Ladder Logic
  
  
  
  
  
  
• PV550/PV900 or RSView32 Screens
  

work in conjunction with the ERC2 algorithms that are embedded in the SLC 5/04P processor. The ladder logic program contains sequence logic for the injection, clamp, and ejector phases. Modify this logic to accommodate your specific machine.

operate the machine (configure profiles, modify/monitor temperatures, save/restore recipes), perform calibration and troubleshooting. Although these screen sets are fairly complete, you may wish to modify them for your specific machine features.

Miscellaneous
discrete input and
output modules

monitor limit switches; control heaters; control directional valves, pilot lights, push buttons, control manual functions and machine modes, etc. Pro-Set 200 can accommodate all discrete I/O modules in the SLC 500 product line, including 120 VAC input and output modules, 24 V DC I/O, relay contact output modules, etc. If you want to use block I/O modules with Pro-Set 200, you need to write ladder code to support the 1747-SN subscanner module that communicates with the block I/O.
