ITW Dynatec c. 1999 TPC-2 TIMER Manual #50-05 Page 1 - 1 Revised 11/04 Chapter 1 DESCRIPTION Description The ITW Dynatec TPC-2 Timer is a microprocessor-based electronic control system. It may be used in any process that requires the timed actuation of electrical output devices and has the ability to count those actuations and take varied actions based upon the count. It was specifically developed to control glue application valves used in adhesive systems.
Page 1 - 2 Revised 1/99 ITW Dynatec c. 1999 TPC-2 TIMER Manual #50-05 The TPC-2 possesses a PALLETISING facility that provides an easy means of applying glue to a specified number of objects, then passing (or skipping) a specified number of objects. The display continually updates itself to inform the operator of the current COUNT. A key-actuated system lock is provided on the Controller’s front panel. This lock prevents any unauthorized change to the programming when activated.

Page 3 - 2 Revised 1/99 ITW Dynatec c. 1999 TPC-2 TIMER Manual #50-05 Programming Conventions The TPC-2 employs the following programming conventions: 1. All CHANNEL modifications are performed on the Program displayed (Pr-1, -2, -3 or -4) when the MEMORY LED is illuminated. 2. Depressing the CHANNEL 1 or CHANNEL 2 buttons allows programming of the parameters for that channel of the selected Program (Pr-1, -2, -3 or -4). 3.
ITW Dynatec c. 1999 TPC-2 TIMER Manual #50-05 Page 3 - 3 Revised 1/99 System Status Lights There are four LED’s in the top right corner of the Display Panel that provide an indication of the current system status. These lights are described in further detail below: Drive 1 & Drive 2 These LED’s provide an indication of the current Drive Output activity.
Page 3 - 4 Revised 1/99 ITW Dynatec c. 1999 TPC-2 TIMER Manual #50-05 The A.T.S. output voltage is 48VDC at 5.4W for a 25ms duration. The output then drops to a holding voltage of 16VDC. The TPC-2 activates the A.T.S. Drive immediately upon receipt of Trigger Inputs. The Tip Sealing Device requires time to operate, the TPC-2 caters for this by allowing a 35ms dwell time from Trigger Input until the gluing program will function.

Depress the DIGIT button the necessary number of times until the desired programming granularity is selected (the desired placeholder digit is flashing). 3. Rotate the VALUE knob until the desired GAP value is selected. 4. Displayed values range from 0000 to 0100. These numbers are expressed in milliseconds.
ITW Dynatec c. 1999 TPC-2 TIMER Manual #50-05 Page 3 - 13 Revised 1/99 NOTE: A GAP value greater than zero automatically changes a LINE to a series of “dots” unless STITCH is also programmed. Stitch STITCH is used when a series of intermittent glue patterns longer in duration than a “dot” is desired instead of a continuous LINE. The TPC-2 Control Unit divides LINE by the sum of GAP plus STITCH to determine the number of intervals.
Page 3 - 14 Revised 1/99 ITW Dynatec c. 1999 TPC-2 TIMER Manual #50-05 Spike Time The TPC-2 Control Unit offers a SPIKE voltage of 48VDC for a duration of from 000.1 to 025.5 milliseconds. The TPC-2 Drive output then settles to a 16VDC holding voltage for the duration of the LINE or STITCH. This feature is provided to enable quicker Glue Valve actuation when necessary. CAUTION: Assure the Glue Valve is designed to handle input voltages of 48VDC for short time periods prior to employing this feature.
