1 - Function Key and Display
The FCN Key is used to access the controls functions. The
FCN number accessed will be displayed in the display next
to the FCN key.
2 - Program Key, LED and Display
The PGM key allows programs other than the current
active program to be viewed and or edited. The program
number selected for viewing/editing is shown in the display
directly above the PGM key. When the PGM LED is lit, the
program number displayed is also the current active
program.
3 - Channel Key, LED and Display
The CHN key allows the desired output channel to be
selected for setpoint viewing/programming. The selected
channel number is shown in the display directly above the
CHN key. When the CHN LED is lit, the channel currently
selected is in the ON state.
The CHN key is also used to select channel numbers during
Function programming. Details are given in the program-
ming sections.
4 - Value Display, Position/RPM Key and LEDs, ON Key
and LED, PULSE Key and LED, OFF Key and LED, and
View Keys
The POS/RPM key selects between Position and RPM
being shown in the value display immediately to the left of
the key. The corresponding POS or RPM LED will be lit
when either item is displayed. Pressing the POS/RPM
allows programming functions to be exited/aborted
and returns the control to displaying Position or RPM.
The ON and OFF keys are used to specify the ON and OFF
pulse edges during setpoint programming. The
corresponding ON and OFF LEDs will be lit during these

setpoint programming operations. (The ON and OFF keys
and LEDs are also used when programming the optional
leading and trailing edge speed compensation feature).
The VIEW keys allow the current On and Off setpoints of
the currently selected channel to be displayed in sequence,
one at a time. The corresponding ON or OFF LED will be lit
to indicate whether an ON or OFF edge is currently displayed.
The >VIEW key displays the setpoints in increasing numeric
order, the <VIEW key displays them in decreasing numeric
order.
The PULSE key allows setpoint pairs (pulses) to be
incremented and decremented simultaneously. When the
PULSE LED is lit steadily, the pulse (both edges) whose
edge is currently displayed will increment and decrement
when the INC and DEC keys are pressed. Pressing the
PULSE key a second time will cause the LED to blink. This
indicates that the multi-pulse mode is activated and all of
the pulses in the currently selected output channel will
increment and decrement when the INC and DEC keys are
pressed.
5 - MOTION, POWER and CPU LEDs
The Motion LED is lit whenever the machine speed is
within the current motion setpoints (FCN 1).
The Power LED is lit whenever the PLuS control is powered
up.
The CPU LED only lights when a Fatal error condition is
detected by the controller. A list of error conditions is
detailed on page A-12 of this manual.
6 - Numeric Keys, CLR/CLE Key, ENT Key, INC and DEC
Keys
The number keys are used to input all numeric values
needed during setpoint and function programming.
The CLR/CLE key is used to clear numeric values during
programming operations.
The ENT key is used to actually enter numeric values into
the controller after they have been keyed in. Failing to press
ENT when programming numeric values will result in the
old value remaining in the control's memory. Numeric value
changes must be "Entered" by pressing the ENT key before
they are accepted by the controller.
The INC and DEC keys cause numeric values that are
displayed in the controls POS display to be incremented
and/or decremented each time the corresponding key is
pressed. Output setpoints, speed compensation and timed
output values are examples of items that can be incremented
and decremented with the INC and DEC keys.
