When an is in PLC I/O mode, all automatic functions of detecting loads and running motors are suspended by the local ‘s on-board logic and the external controller must explicitly read inputs and write data output to cause motors to run. The following items are available for external controller when the is in PLC I/O Mode:
• Status of all available digital inputs on Sensor Ports (2 dedicated as inputs and 2 configurable as inputs)
• Module voltage reading
• Left and Right motor status of frequency, current, and calculated temperature
• Left and Right motor diagnostic error status word
• Control of Aux I/O digital outputs
• Ability to independently run both Left and Right motors
• Ability to set speed, acceleration, deceleration, and Braking method for Left and Right motors
• Ability to configure one or both motor ports to digital output mode
• Ability to remotely clear fatal motor error condition
• Ability to instruct module to stop motor outputs
• Ability to interface with upstream and downstream ZPA modules for status and tracking
