I/O Box Overview

The I/O Box is the wall-

mounted large steel box



27

SESA ACM SERVICES

I/O Box Overview

The I/O Box contains the equipment to convert the PC data

into Plant signals, and vice versa.

It is also the point where the plant field wiring can be terminated.



28

SESA ACM SERVICES

I/O Box Overview

Components inside include:

Opto Boards 5Vdc Power Supply

Transformer



29

SESA ACM SERVICES

I/O Box OverviewOpto Board : has up to 24 I/O per board (or rack)

has 24 field wiring terminals at the bottom

has live and neutral fusing for each of three groups of eight I/Ohas selectable jumper for Hot N or Aux power, for each I/O

has auxiliary power rail for each of three groups of eight I/O

has LED for each I/O

signals to/from

Manual Station Overview

The Manual Station is the desk or table-

top located, steel console



31

SESA ACM SERVICES


Manual Station

has up to 96 assignable I/O points, each point

connected to appropriate Opto in I/O Box

same layout as the I/O Box, four groups of 24

I/O, A to D

I/O 1 to 16 inclusive of each group A to D, havebuttons and LED, and can be for outputs or

inputs

I/O 17 to 24 inclusive of group A and B, have

LEDs only, and are normally used for inputs –

such as limit switches

I/O 17 to 24 inclusive of group C and D, have

no LED or button, and are used for inputs or

outputs that don’t need to be shown, like a

pulse meter



32

SESA ACM SERVICES

Manual Station OverviewComponents inside include:

Baseboard Sometimes referred to as the Motherboard, sits in the base of the cabinet

Processor Board Compact self-contained microprocessor, plugs into Base Board

RS232 Board 2-channel RS232 interface board, plugs into Processor Board

Personality Module custom integrated circuit, with a calibration switch, plugs into the Base Board

32 bit I/O board 32 I/O per board, so three boards fitted, plugs into the Base Board

LCI Module Scale interface, plugs into Base Board and has plug/socket loadcell connections

MPI Module Moisture Probe interface, plugs into Base Board and has plug/socket probeconnections

Display Board has up to 12 alphanumeric DIL displays, mounts on rear of lid

Switch Banks and also LED banks, in groups of eight, mount on rear of lid, connect to Base Boardvia ribbon cables



33

SESA ACM SERVICES


The Manual Panel displays can be configured to be:

Scale (for loadcell input) Counter (for meter pulse input(s))

Probe (for moisture probe input) None (blank display)



34

SESA ACM SERVICES


The Manual Station displays are configured and calibrated by using the SETUP/CALIB buttons

as per the EZ-CAL operation manual (Maintain Buttons)

The scale parameters must be known, and Manual Station setup before calibrating

The loadcells need to be correctly identified and connected before calibrating

The system performs loadcell checks both during calibration, and at 10 minute intervals thereafter

Once installed, ideally leave the Manual Station switched on



35

SESA ACM SERVICES

Real Time Control : RTC OverviewThe RTC can be one of two types -

Lanner –

2 parallel ports

4 serial ports

2 network ports

5Vdc supply

Aaeon –

1 parallel port

4 serial ports

1 network port

12Vdc supply



36

SESA ACM SERVICES

RTC Overview

Connections for each type RTC –

Power from a separate power supply unit, either integral to the ManualStation in the case of the Aaeon RTC, or as a Power Supply Modulefor the Lanner RTC

Network use LAN2 port for the Lanner RTC, the LAN port for the Aaeon typeRTC. The RTC in either case can be part of the customer network,

or connect direct to the COMMANDbatch PC with its own NIC and acrossover cable

COM2 conventionally reserved for the serial connection to the ManualStation, but any of the serial ports can be assigned

COM1, 3, 4 used to interface items such as Remote Scale Displays

LPT1 or 2 rarely used, but can be utilised if two parallel printers are neededand the PC LPT1 port is in use. Can also be used for Spectrum v5conversions, where it connects to the phase V I/O box.

The system marks records that have been modified in some way (added, modified, deleted, etc.)by entering a code in the Record Number column of the grid.

The items that follow explain these modifications:

(d) indicates the record is being deleted. You will only see this code briefly whenyou confirm that you want to delete the record, then the code disappears.

(n) indicates that a new record is being added, but has not been saved.

(m) indicates that the record has been modified (edited), but not saved.

(e) indicates that the record contains one or more errors. You will not be able tosave the record before you correct the errors. Normally, a message explainsthe error(s) when you try to save a record with errors.

Records marked as modified:

For the most part, filtering means limiting the number of records displayed in the grid area

However, you can filter on just about any field on a form

Filtering for All Records

Forms in COMMANDbatch are assigned default filters, which vary by form.

To override a form‟s default filter and view ALL records: Press [F4] twice

To return to a form‟s default filter: Press [F4] then [F3]

Note: Pressing [F4] twice doesn‟t work on the Batch Setup, Ticket Editor, andProductivity forms because these forms are filtered by date
