System Power and Environment Requirements System Power and Environment Requirements General Power and Environment Requirements The MMC is suitable for operation in a pollution degree 2 environment (i.e., normally, only non-conductive pollution occurs). You are not required to install the system rack in a control cabinet. However a cabinet protects the system from dust and mechanical damage and is recommended.
System Power and Environment Requirements Power Distribution Diagram The MMC requires an external DC power source. The power distribution drawing that follows shows an MMC connected to a µDSM Drive. The drive’s 24 VDC power is supplied via the MMC in this example. If the drive has its own external 24 VDC supply, the +24 V line would not be connected.
System Power and Environment Requirements It is recommended that the same main disconnect switch be used for the MMC system and for all devices in the application. IMPORTANT No matter how the system is installed, before you connect the MMC to the application, make sure that power is off to the system and to the devices the MMC is wired to.

System Power and Environment Requirements Grounding the System The ground of the MMC power source must be connected directly to a Single Point Ground (SPG) tie block. The tie block should be made of brass or copper, bolted or brazed to the control cabinet. If the tie block is bolted rather than brazed, scrape away paint or grease at the point of contact.
System Power and Environment Requirements IMPORTANT You must ensure that the "0V" or "Common" of all devices connected to the MMC are connected to Single Point Ground (SPG). Failure to do so may result in erratic operation or damage to the MMC. Exam- ples of devices connected to the MMC include the power source that supplies 24VDC power to the MMC and devices connected to the MMC PiCPro Port or User Port.
System Power and Environment Requirements The MMC itself is a source of heat, though in most installations its heat dissipates without harmful effects. System heat is generated from power dissipated by: field side input/output components • other components within the MMC •...
System Wiring Guidelines System Wiring Guidelines The MMC relies on electrical signals to report what is going on in the application and to send commands to it. In addition, signals are constantly being exchanged within the system. The MMC is designed for use in industrial environments, but some guidelines should be followed.
Page 34
System Wiring Guidelines Inside a control cabinet, connect the shields of shielded cables at the MMC. Figure 8 illustrates shielded cable entering/leaving the cabinet. Figure 8: Connecting Shielded Cable External Drive Cabinet Enclosure The two different methods of terminating shields are used to accommodate two different immunity requirements.
System Wiring Guidelines Differential Devices for Analog and Encoder Signals A differential device receives or sends one signal over two wires (typically a shielded twisted pair). The input/output voltage at the second terminal is the inverse of the first. Information is received/sent as the difference between the two voltages.
Starting an Operation Starting an Operation Good procedure suggests that the system should be tested each time a new application is powered up. The DIAG LED on the MMC should be off indicating that the diagnostic tests were passed. Turn off the main disconnect switch and plug the DC connector into the power connector.
Starting an Operation Troubleshooting Table 2 summarizes how to proceed when performing certain maintenance and/or setup functions. Table 2: Summary In order to: Turn off the entire application. Turn off main disconnect (which should also turn off all external power supplies to the application);...

Basic MMC Theory of Operation 12.2 LEDs There are three LEDs on the top of the CPU section of the MMC. Figure 25: LEDs Below is a list of the LEDs and what they mean. Scan (S) Green The processor is executing the application program. Scan is lost and there is an orderly shut down procedure followed.
Basic MMC Theory of Operation 12.3 Diagnostic Error Codes While the MMC is running, the DIAG LED on the CPU module will flash a three digit code signal if there is an error. For example, if there is a long pause-flash-pause-flash-flash-pause-flash-flash-flash-long pause, the code is 123.
Basic MMC Theory of Operation 12.4 MMC Machine Control The MMC converts input power into DC power at voltages of + 5V, + 15 V, and - 15 V and supplies them to the logic side of the system.The same supply that powers the MMC can be used for the fieldside of the system.
Basic MMC Theory of Operation Even though you have placed an application in flash, you can still download and run a different application from PiCPro. However, when you cycle power on the MMC, the application in flash will always be placed into RAM. 12.6 General I/O Output Operation Each of the 16 outputs on the general I/O connector is a solid state switch rated at .250 A.

Basic MMC Theory of Operation 12.9 DC Input Operation (Axis, AUX, General Connectors) Each input is guaranteed "on" at 14 to 30 VDC and guaranteed "off" at 0 to 5 VDC; polarity doesn't matter. Its on/off state is converted to a corresponding logic 1 or 0.
Page 68
Basic MMC Theory of Operation IMPORTANT Switching devices can sometimes have a leakage current that ex- ceeds the IT (current allowed when off) of an input module. In or- der to use such a device, an impedance (typically, a resistor) needs to be used in parallel with the input.

Analog Servo Control Operation 13.1 Analog Output Theory of Operation (Axis Connectors) The CPU sends the analog output section a 16-bit digital word for each analog output channel used. Each digital word is converted to a corresponding voltage within the range of ±10 V. The voltage is buffered and brought out to a pair of I/O connections as a differential type voltage output.
Analog Servo Control Operation The maximum input frequency is 250,000 lines per second, which results in 1,000,000 Feedback Units (FUs) per second. Figure 30: Counting Quadrature Pulses The m odule counts positive transitions at both channel A and channel B. One quadrature cycle in this case gives 4 feedback units.
Analog Servo Control Operation 13.3 Analog Input Operation (AUX Connector) There is one differential analog input channel on this module. The input range is ±10 VDC. The analog input voltage is sampled every 100 µsec by a 12-bit A/D converter. The most recent conversion result is stored in an on- board register.
MMC SERCOS Control Operation 14 MMC SERCOS Control Operation The MMC SERCOS board is an alternate type of motion control used as part of an MMC base unit. It provides an interface between the MMC and a fiber optic ring. A ring can have from one to eight SERCOS slaves. The module contains an on board processor.

D.1 - MMC Profibus Module D.1 - MMC Profibus Module 1 Introduction The MMC Profibus scanner module is an interface between the MMC and a Profibus network. The module contains an on-board processor, a Profibus compliant interface, and firmware that makes it act as the master to all other nodes on the network.
D.1 - MMC Profibus Module 2 Connections Profibus connections are illustrated in Figure D1- 2. Up to 125 Profibus Nodes may be attached to the Profibus scanner module. Figure D1-2. Profibus Connections M M C Profibus P rofibu s D IA G C N F G P O R T NETW ORK SCANNER...
D.1 - MMC Profibus Module 2.1 The Profibus Port The Profibus port is on the front of the module near the center as shown in Figure D1- 1. The pinout for the Profibus port is shown below: Note: Pin # Signal Name It is strongly recommended that you use Profibus Chassis ground...

E.1 - CE and EMC Guidelines 3 RFI Emission and Immunity The EMC product characteristics are classified by the emission and immunity performance. Emissions not only include radiated noise from the product enclosure and cabling, but also that which is conducted away from the product along the cables connected to it.
Page 141
E.1 - CE and EMC Guidelines 4 Classes of EMC Operating Environments Before the correct level of EMC can be designed into equipment, the EMC operating environment must be defined. For example in industrial locations where high power equipment is in use, high levels of background electrical noise would be expected when compared to a household or office environment.
Page 142
E.1 - CE and EMC Guidelines 5 Conformance with the EMC Directive Giddings & Lewis will be complying to the Directive by self-certification to the following generic EMC standards: 1. EN50081-2 for industrial emissions using EN55011 (based upon CISPR 11A) 2.
Page 143
E.1 - CE and EMC Guidelines 7.1 Changes Affecting the User Many of the changes Giddings & Lewis has implemented are transparent to the user. However, there are some changes affecting user installation. Giddings & Lewis continues to recommend separation of low level signals (encoder, analog, communications, fast DC inputs) from high voltage or high current lines from any of the above.
Page 144
E.1 - CE and EMC Guidelines There is now a provision for shield termination to the CPU modules for peer-to-peer communication. Shielded cable must be used to reduce emissions. Inside a control cabinet, the practice of connecting the shields of shielded cables at the modules should be continued.
Page 145
E.1 - CE and EMC Guidelines As a general precaution, do not operate transmitters, arc welding equipment, or other high noise radiators within one meter of a PiC enclosure that has the door open. Continue to equip inductive devices, if they are in series with a mechanical contact or switch, with arc suppression circuits.

E.1 - CE and EMC Guidelines 8 Using EMC and Non-EMC Modules IMPORTANT Failure to follow these guidelines may result in undesired system performance. There are several issues that must be considered when using EMC compliant and Non-EMC compliant Modules. This document addresses these issues. Module Identification To determine whether a module is EMC or Non-EMC, look at the gray Unit Tag located on the side of the plastic module case.
