SECTION 2 - DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION INTRODUCTION This section explains the functions, module circuitry, data and connections for the Quick Response Controller (IMQRC01). It also details the function codes available to configure a QRC. FUNCTIONAL OPERATION The quick response controller consists of seven major sections. They are memory, module bus interface, machine fault timer, digital control station serial link, digital inputs/outputs, ana- log inputs/outputs, and the microprocessor, timing and con-...
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION ® address. The device address for the quick response controller is set via an eight position dipswitch. NOTE: The QRC cannot communicate over the controlway. Memory The on-board memory is 32 kilobytes of read only memory (ROM), 4 kilobytes of random access memory (RAM) and 2 kilo- bytes of nonvolatile random access memory (NVRAM).
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Analog Inputs/Outputs There are four analog inputs and two analog outputs on-board. The inputs must be 1 to 5 VDC analog signals. The outputs are dipswitch selectable to be either a voltage signal (1 to 5 VDC) or a current signal (4 to 20 milliamps).
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION ® CONFIGURATION A configuration must be defined to determine the operations a QRC performs on its input signals. This section explains the function codes that can be used with a QRC. Function codes are software algorithms that can be configured to execute spe- cific tasks.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Function Codes The control strategy is designed with function codes from the INFI 90 function code library residing in ROM. Each code has a set of specifications with default values. The specifications can be changed to meet the requirements of your application. Table lists the available function codes.

INSTALLATION ® SETUP/PHYSICAL INSTALLATION This section explains the procedures to set switches and jumpers, and install the QRC. After installing this module, a configuration must be created to define the functions a QRC will perform. NOTE: The installation section provides instructions pertaining to the installation of the QRC only.
INSTALLATION SWITCH S2 AND S3 SETTINGS Switches S2 and S3 set the analog output type and default value (the value of the output during power up, reset and cer- tain failure conditions) for analog output number 1 and 2 respectively. Figure shows the location of S2 and S3.
INSTALLATION ® SWITCH S4 SETTINGS Switch S4 sets the QRC operating states (normal mode or diag- nostic mode), initialization status, configuration lock status, diagnostic mode test and module address of the QRC. Figure shows the location of S4. Figure shows the S4 dipswitch positions and their uses.
INSTALLATION ® Configuration Lockout Configuration lockout allows normal operation but prevents access to the configuration. This should be used if a configura- tion change could cause injury or significant equipment damage. The diagnostic modes are designed as troubleshooting aides to assist in problem detection.
INSTALLATION 4. Push and turn the two captive retaining screws on the module faceplate one half turn to the latched position. It is latched when the slots on the screws are vertical and the open ends face the center of the module. (To remove the module, turn the module retaining screws to the unlatched position and slide it out).
SECTION 4 - OPERATING PROCEDURES INTRODUCTION This section explains the modes of operation, front panel indi- cators and start-up procedures for the Quick Response Controller (IMQRC01). MODES OF OPERATION The QRC has three modes of operation: EXECUTE, CONFIG- URE and ERROR mode. The mode can be changed using an operator interface.
OPERATING PROCEDURES ® IMQRC01 MODULE STATUS RESET SWITCH ACCESS T00032A Figure 4-1. QRC Front Panel RESET SWITCH The reset switch is used to reset the module. Press the switch once when the module is in the execute mode and the outputs will return to their default state.
OPERATING PROCEDURES For an explanation of these function codes and their specifica- tions, or an explanation of function blocks and configurations, refer to the Function Code Application Manual. NOTE: The NVRAM should be initialized BEFORE entering a con- figuration into the module. This can be done using the operator interface console (OIC), engineering work station (EWS), or switch To enter a function block configuration into memory, the mod- ule must be in configure mode.

TROUBLESHOOTING ® Blinking Green The LED blinking green indicates that the module has detected an error in configuration when attempting to go from configure to execute mode. The module status bytes can be monitored to identify the configuration error. Refer to Table 5-2. MODULE STATUS BYTES The QRC module status bytes provide information concerning the QRC inputs.
