Core Splitter. The splitting mechanisms are attached to the motion carriage and moved through the stationary core material. The motion of the carriage is controlled by the joystick and RP Operator Interface Figure 2 to a digital servo motor controller with a custom program installed.

The motor drives two linear actuators mounted underneath the splitting tray. The motion control program was written with the Parker Motion Planner software and this software is also used to load the program into the digital servo controller.

See Appendix B for detail on the procedures for interacting with the servo controller. Figure 2. The saw is capable of crushing hands! As soon as power is applied the carriage will move automatically to the home switch towards the drain end of the saw's basin. Main Power V.

Turn on for power to carriage and motion control Turn on for power and water to Super Saw. Insert the 4 pins 2 on each side and rotate to lock behind socket head screw. Figure 7. Saw blade encounters too much friction and stops. The overcurrent protection switch is tripped to protect the motor.

Turn power off to the saw. Free the saw blade from the core material. Open the control cabinet and reset the overcurrent protection switch. Open front Plexiglas cover and remove the 3 bolts on the Aluminum water trough that covers the top end of the blade. Remove the bolt and the metal plate holding the blade.

Slide the Aluminum water trough away from the motor enough to remove the old blade. You may have to angle the blade in order to remove it from the saw housing. Remove metal insert if present on the center of the new blade and remount the blade and repeat steps 1 through 3 in reverse. Make sure the blade is on in the correct direction. The arrow on the blade's label should match the direction the saw turns, clockwise if looking from the forward side of the splitting table.

This section discusses details of the Parker Gemini GV6K-U6E digital servo motor controller Figure B1 and the reprogramming or replacement procedure for the controller. The servo controller is designed to function with many different inputs and outputs. The servo controller sends commands to and receives feedback from the Parker Servo Motor. The core splitter also has limit switches and emergency stop buttons.

The servo controller is loaded with a user defined program or code to coordinate all of these components. The program was developed with the Parker Motion Planner software and has these five components of code,.

It is the high level program that the other subroutines run under. When power is applied this is the program that is automatically run. Refer to the Parker Gemini GV6 Hardware Installation Guide for instruction on how to connect to a servo controller and set up a new servo controller.

A PC computer, preferably a laptop, will need to be set up and the Parker Motion Planner software installed. The Motion Planner software can be used to create new programs or view existing programs. It will be easiest to use a computer with a RS serial port or a USB to serial cable can be used provided that the necessary drivers are installed. The controller can also be connected to a computer using a peer to peer Ethernet cable but this method would need more assistance from a MCS. The user does not need to be connected to a servo controller in order to view or edit a program.

Open Motion Planner. The software will open an editor window that will allow the user to view the code Figure B2. The master program has all five components of code built into it.

Motion Planner also has On-line Help available. Figure B2: Viewing a program with Motion Planner. To view or download what programs are installed on a servo controller, connect the computer to the servo controller with RS serial or Ethernet.

Open Motion Planner and establish communication with the servo controller. Open a New Program Editor window. The software should return a list of code that is loaded onto the controller Figure B4. The controller that is installed on the Core Splitter should return a list with all five components of code listed above.

The spare controller may or may not have the code already installed. The user can then select which program to view. Figure B3: Uploading programs from a servo controller icon and dialog box. Figure B4: List of program code on the servo controller. Once a program is ready to be installed on a servo controller, open the program in a Program Editor.

Click the "Download Editor" button and follow the instructions Figure B5. This chapter has given you information and instructions for performing an Express Setup.

The following list explains the steps you should take to complete your installation, and indicates where to find additional information for each of those steps. Page Chapter 3 - Configuration www. Page Configuration www. For most of these settings, configuration is optional—if you do nothing, the drive will use default values the very first time it powers up. If you change any settings, the new settings are saved automatically. Page 25 www. Page 26 www. Digital Inputs Command Description Options: hard limit disable hard limits disabled negative limit only positive limit only both hard limits enabled INLVL input sense active high or active low Page 27 www.

Tuning can be done in torque, velocity, or position mode. Tuning procedures for each of these modes are presented below.

Page Tuning Procedures www. That procedure assumes that the motor is unloaded. In the following tuning procedures, you will enter in system information that will characterize the load on the motor. Page 29 www. The drive will ignore torque commands on its command input terminals which may come from an external device, such as a servo controller.

Page Velocity Mode Tuning www. With the default tuning parameters set in the Express Setup procedure, you need only set the system load-to-rotor inertia ratio and your system will be tuned. Page Position Mode Tuning www. Adjust your oscilloscope to display commanded versus actual velocity. You may need to set these to large values if the maximum velocity is small.

Page 32 www. If necessary, you can connect an oscilloscope as described in Advanced Tuning below. Ringing or an oscillating response indicates that the position loop bandwidth is too high. Page Filter Adjustments www. This completes the advanced tuning procedure.

See the Filter Adjustments procedure below. Page 34 www. Resonances change with load; therefore, your system will be more robust with a lower Q value. Page Chapter 4 - Special Features www. Page Relay Connections Optional www. The next drawing shows a typical application—connecting a motor brake to the relay terminals. Page Multiple Drive Installations Optional www. Page Regeneration Protection www. With the buses connected in parallel, regenerated energy from one drive will be used by the other drives.

Do not connect GV-H20n drives in parallel to each other or to other Gemini drives. Page 39 www. Page 40 www. If regeneration continues while the GPDM is in a faulted state, the drive may experience an overvoltage fault. Page 41 www. Ordinarily, no further alignment is required.

However, you may wish to align the resolver if you suspect the resolver is misaligned, or if you are using a non-Compumotor motor. A Note About Resolver Speed Resolver speed describes the relationship between resolver electrical revolutions and shaft mechanical revolutions. Page 43 www. Disconnect the load from the motor shaft. The shaft should be free to rotate. Verify correct motor wiring. In the following this port will be referred to as the COM port. Page Rs Communications www. Future releases of Gemini firmware will offer additional baud rate choices.

Check the Compumotor web site www. Page 46 www. The ADDR command automatically configures unit ad- dresses for daisy chaining. This command allows up to 99 units on a daisy chain to be uniquely addressed. Sending ADDRi to the first unit in the daisy chain sets its address to be i. Page Chapter 5 - Troubleshooting www.

Page 50 www. If not, look for problems with AC power. Also see System Problems at the end of this chapter. Page 51 www. Reconfigure the Drive To verify proper configuration, you may wish to reconfigure the drive.

Pay particular attention to selecting proper configuration settings for the motor that you have installed, as motor configuration problems can cause a variety of errors.

Page 52 www. It reports more informa- tion than the TAS command, and is helpful for identifying which faults occurred.

Page 53 www. See Chapter 2 Installation for information about using these software tools. Page 54 www. Disconnect the other end of the cable from the drive. Page 55 www. It may be difficult to identify where the problem is coming from. To diagnose system problems, we recommend that you first have the drive perform its autorun function. Page 56 www. Ordinarily, no further alignment is necessary. However, if you suspect that the resolver has been altered and is out of alignment, you can follow the alignment procedure in Aligning the Resolver, located in Chapter 4 Special Features.
