3.2 System configuration
As a rule, each installation requires its own special customized solution. The intended method
for accomplishing this in REMOTUS CU9600 is via the software (program) in the CPU unit. A
number of variants are preprogrammed in the program and can be selected at system delivery.
Variants are selected by the modification of certain fixed points in a master program. This is
done in the PLC program. Functions can also be combined, sequenced, time-delayed, moved,
duplicated etc. with the PLC module.
Hereinafter we will call this procedure "configuration". The advantages of having options easily
accessible in the software are that it eliminates the necessity of having to administer a large
number of different systems programs, the costs are reduced and the delivery time can be
shortened.
3.2.1 Unit address
The unit address of the receiver is determined in "configuration".
3.2.2 Selection of persistent functions
Certain fixed functions, headlights etc, should normally not be turned off simply because
reception has been disturbed for a time. The program is prepared for simple selection of these
functions during "configuration".
3.2.3 Manipulator decoding
Different decodings require different numbers of functions. With 4-step decoding, six functions
are required per travel movement. These functions cover the following: 2nd, 3rd and 4th step
plus forward, reverse and brake lifter.
Decoding of the manipulators can be done in several ways. A number of variants are
preprogrammed and can be selected during "configuration".
Note that each travel movement can have different decoding.
Decoding options:
o Direct (grey code or functions)
o 4-step
o 5-step and 4-step
o 16-step and 4-step
o Binary and 4-step
o Analog and 4-step (Not relevant in this receiver)
3.2.4 Disconnect delay, brake lifter
The brake lifter is on when the manipulator is activated. Furthermore it is disconnect-delayed 1
second (so that the manipulator arm can pass the zero position). The brake lifter's disconnect
time can be selected during configuration. This time is the same for all travel movements, but it
can be varied through a PLC program.
