When an ConveyLinx-ECO Module is in PLC I/O mode, all automatic functions of detecting loads and running motors are suspended by the local ConveyLinx-ECO Module’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 ConveyLinx-ECO Module 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
