SECTION III
CORE SOFTWARE OPERATION
The core software performs the following fundamental functions of the ADDvantage-32 PLUS
hardware and software:
1. Hardware Setup and Diagnostics
2. I/O Configuration and Calibration
3. Input and Output Scanning
4. Individual Control Block Operation
5. Current Loop Operation
6. Eight Channel Signal Analyzer Operation
This section describes the capabilities and functions of the core software and the X***, Y***
parameters, as well as the corresponding A*** and D*** data table parameters. (The data table
parameters are shown for reference purposes only and are not explained in detail unless
required.) See Section V for the signal analyzer explanations.
NOTE
Because parameter numbers vary according to software part
number, specific parameter numbers are not shown. To locate a
specific parameter number, refer to Appendix D.
3.1 DEDICATED INPUTS
Dedicated inputs are inputs located on the bridge interface board which perform a
specific task. Each dedicated input is hard wired and operates independently of the
application software, allowing failsafe operation even if a software problem occurs.
3.1.1 Emergency Stop (ESTOP)
When the ESTOP input is removed, the main contactor opens immediately and the gate
firing is suppressed. The green EMERG STOP LED on the front of the ADDvantage-32
PLUS will also go out to indicate loss of the ESTOP.
