  • Page 16: Programming Port

    HEC-P6XXX Features Programming Port The HEC-P6XXX is programmed using its Programming Port (COM 0). This RS232 serial port is only to be used for programming using Divelbiss EZ LADDER Toolkit software. This is not a general purpose port and may not be used in any other capacity than programming the controller itself.

  • Page 17: Status (Sts) Led

    HEC-P6XXX Features Status (STS) LED The operating status of the HEC-P6XXX can be determined the by Status LED. When the Status LED is flashing at a slow rate, approximately once per second, then there is no ladder program executing. When the Status LED is flashing at a fast rate (several times per second), a program has been loaded and it is executing.

  • Page 18: Input Power Monitor

    HEC-P6XXX Features Figure 2.3 - Input Power Connections - Main Logic Input Power Monitor The power connected to the main logic power input of pins 1 and 2 on connector ‘A’ may be monitored in the ladder diagram program. This input power is optionally connected to analog input 7 (AN7). The configuration switches SW3-3 must be set to ON and SW3-4 must be set to OFF for the power monitor to function.

  • Page 19: Mounting

    HEC-P6XXX Features Mounting The HEC-P6XXX controller is designed to be panel mounted directly into most environments. The HEC-P6XXX mounts using 4 screws up to 1/4” in diameter. Even though the HEC-P6XXX can be submerged up to 3 meters in water, ideally, when mounting the HEC- P6XXX controller, the end with the connectors should be mounted downward as to promote moisture flow away from the connec- tions.

  • Page 20: Counter Inputs

    HEC-P6XXX Features DIN11 - DIN13 (variables DIN11 - DIN13) These five (3) inputs are dedicated as digital inputs only. This group has it’s own common pin, allowing this entire group to be configured as sinking or sourcing based on the wiring. As digital input groups DIN6 - DIN10 and DIN11 - DIN13 are separate groups with individual common pins, these two groups can operate at different voltages between 8VDC and 32VDC.

  • Page 24 HEC-P6XXX Features Please note: Individually, the DIN0 - DIN2 inputs are designed to be used as a digital input only or high speed counter/ timer input only. EZ LADDER will allow the placement of contacts and /or TIMERCOUNTER function in any program. Therefore, you can place and use the contacts and the TIMERCOUNTER function block in the same program with the same digital input selected.

  • Page 25: Quadrature Input

    HEC-P6XXX Features Quadrature Input As was noted in the Digital Inputs Section, three of the digital inputs (DIN3, DIN4, DIN5) may be utilized together as a quadrature input that can accept signals from a quadrature encoder. When configured as quadrature inputs (DIN3, DIN4 and DIN5 as CHA, CHB and INDEX respectively), can accept frequencies up to 100KHz.

  • Page 30: Analog Inputs

    HEC-P6XXX Features Analog Inputs The HEC-P6XXX provides 4 on-board, 12-bit resolution analog inputs. Each analog input will accept an input of 0-5VDC, 0-10VDC or 0-20mADC. The analog input ranges and types are configured using internal dip switches. These dip switches should be configured for the correct inputs prior to actually connecting the analog inputs.

  • Page 31: Analog Outputs

    HEC-P6XXX Features Analog Outputs The HEC-P6XXX provides 2 on-board, 12-bit resolution analog outputs rated 0-10VDC. A calibration potentiometer is provided for minor field calibration (if required) for each channel. To gain access to these potentiometers, the HEC-P6XXX must be dis-assembled. See the Assembling / Dis-assembling the HEC-P6XXX section of this manual. Refer to the HEC-P6XXX Configuration Jumpers, Switches and Potentiometers section of this manual for poteniometer locations.

  • Page 41: Fram / Retentive Memory

    HEC-P6XXX Features FRAM / Retentive Memory The HEC-P6XXX controllers support two types of on-board non-volatile memory: EEPROM and FRAM. The EEPROM memory is on- chip (on-board the PLC on a Chip) while the FRAM is an independent device. FRAM is the memory that is used to store all Retentive variables in the ladder program. Retentive variables automatically store their values into the FRAM device when a power loss is detected and then the values are read from FRAM and restored automatically when power is restored.

  • Page 42: Eeprom Memory (On-Chip)

    HEC-P6XXX Features Figure 2.35 - Configure Retentive Memory FRAM AS EEPROM IN EZ LADDER TOOLKIT The FRAM may also be used in EZ LADDER Toolkit as EEPROM memory using the EEPROM_WRITE and EEPROM_READ function blocks. Any memory not allocated as retentive bytes is available to be used as general EEPROM storage. When using the EEPROM_READ or EEPROM_WRITE function blocks, the storage device is selected.
