Introduction 1. Introduction The PG 674 is a small, handy device with a keyboard and two- line display. It is used for operating the electronic cam control units Posi Control KUAX 674 and KUAX 673. It is separated from the cam control unit to allow variable use. It can be con- nected with the cam control unit via the programming interface at any time, even when the machine is running.

VBG 4.0 has to be observed and §8 (Admissible deviations during working on parts) in particular. - Repairs must only be executed by the trained Kuhnke person- nel (usually in the main factory in Malente). Warranty ex- pires in any other case.
3. Design of the PG 674 The operating terminal PG 674 is used for programming the cam control unit (see "4. The PG 674 as a programming de- vice"). It can be supplied as a portable hand-held terminal and as a built-in terminal.
Operating terminal PG 674 3.2. Hand-held terminal PG 674 (674.001.00) The hand-held terminal can be connected to and disconnected from the cam control unit during operation. The connecting cable is firmly attached to the hand-held termi- nal. It serves both communication with the cam control unit and supplying power to the hand-held terminal (24 V DC), which are supplied by the cam control unit.
Hardware 3.3. Built-in terminal PG 674 (674.010.00) As a built-in terminal, the PG 674 has a connector on the rear side for the connecting cable to the cam control unit. The 24 V DC supply voltage is separately connected to a 2-pin screw-type locking connector.
Operating terminal PG 674 3.3.2. Installation The PG 674 is installed in a front panel (i.e. switching cabinet door). To do this you must cut out an opening in the front panel: 3.3.2.1. Front panel cutout 3.3.2.2. Inserting the built-in terminal...

The PG 674 as a programming device 4.1. General information on the operating terminal The PG 674 is available both as a hand-held and built-in termi- nal. Using the appropriate connecting cable, it is connected to the „RS 232“ programming interface on the cam control unit.

4.4. Operating modes of the operating terminal PG 674 4.4.1. Restricted operating mode The PG 674 always returns to this operating mode when the supply voltage is switched on. You can only leave this mode by entering a number code via the KEY button (see ch. 4.6.1.).
Programming 4.5. Display window of the operating terminal PG 674 The PG 674 has an LCD display with 2 lines of 16 characters each. After switching on (connect PG 674 and/or switch on supply of the CPU), the PG 674 the following initial status message ap- pears in the display: PG 673/674 V1.00...
The PG 674 as a programming device 4.6. Commands of the operating terminal PG 674 The PG 674 can be run in two operating modes (see ch. „4.4. Operating modes of the PG 674“). Switch on the „open“ operat- ing mode to make use of all the commands: 4.6.1.
Programming 4.6.3. Displaying the key code In case the key code has been forgotten, it can be displayed briefly: Press Display Note Ctrl._ Ctrl._ do not press Enter ! displayed briefly: (Code= 099) The device will automatically return tothe standard display: Pos:261 O:0.00 n:0000 rpm...
The PG 674 as a programming device 4.6.5. System information Three pieces of information are displayed with this command: - type of operating terminal (here: standard type) - resolution of the initialized encoder (here 360) - CPU software version (here: V0.1)
Programming 4.6.7. Choosing a program The cam control unit can store several programs: - KUAX 674: programs 0...7 - KUAX 673: programs 0...31 You can always select one of these programs for programming and/or operation. Apart from the actual programs, the operating terminal has its own program memory which is addressed under number 32.

The PG 674 as a programmimg device To give access to program selection in restricted mode Anyone with access to the operating terminal should be able to change programs no matter what operating mode is set. This can be of significance when it is necessary to change programs frequently without problems occurring.

The PG 674 as a programmimg device 4.6.8. Initializing the cam control unit Before programming a cam control unit for the first time or if the hardware constellation has been changed, you must adapt the software to the hardware. We call this operation "Initializa- tion".

Choosing an output You may allocate "any" number of cams to each output. The limit is set by the encoder resolution. A cam consists of a switching-on and the corresponding switching-off position of the output.
The PG 674 as a programmimg device 4.6.10 Programming cams You may allocate "any" number of cams to each output. The limit is set by the encoder resolution. A cam consists of a switching-on and the corresponding switching-off position of the output.

The PG 674 as a programming device 4.6.13. Deleting cams If a cam is deleted, the numbers of the cams above the deleted one are automatically adjusted by -1. Example: output O0.00, cam 2 (ON = 149, OFF = 312)
Programming 4.6.14. Deleting outputs Delete all cams programmed for one output in a program. You must set program number and output before you can delete the cams. Example: program 0, output O0.00 Press Display Note delete prog = 1 program or output? delete outp = 2_ Delete O:0.00 ? delete output...

The PG 674 as a programming device 4.6.18. Activating the dynamic mode of outputs Outputs O0.00 to 0.15 can be put into dynamic mode. Therre are 2 different types of dynamic mode: - dead time compensation - time cam The dynamic mode is toggled on or off for all all dynamic out- puts once during initialization (see "4.6.8.
Programming 4.6.19. Deadtime compensation For the deadtime compensation of actuators (see "4.4.1. Deadtime compensation...") the switching points (ON and OFF) of the outputs concerned are advanced in time. This time con- stant is entered in milliseconds and may take on values of up to 5,000 ms.
The PG 674 as a programming device 4.6.20 Time cams Outputs O0.00 through 0.15 can work as so-called time cams (see ch. "4.4.2. Time cam") in dynamic operation. Their pur- pose is to switch on the assigned output for a defined length of time (in the range of 0 through 5,000 ms).
Programming 4.6.21. Encoder speed reduction – electronic gearing The speed of outputs O0.00 through 0.15 can be reduced so that the programmed cams extend to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 rotations of the encoder (see ch. "4.4.3. Encoder speed reduction"). Press Display Note...
The PG 674 as a programming device 4.6.22. Choice of language The operating terminal can be supplied with English or Ger- man labelling. The operating program is identical in both cases. Normally, you set the language for dialogs with the operating terminal upon switching the device on (see ch.
This function is only available when switching the oper- ating terminal on. Press Display Note press key 0 when switching the PG 674 on: 0:End 1:Continue 2:Single 3:Setup Contrast +: 1 higher: 1, lower: 0 Contrast -: 0 0:End 1:Continue...
