Actimux POWER66 STD3: LS9A outputs description

This page describes how the outputs OUT_1, OUT_2, OUT_3, OUT_4, OUT_23 and OUT_24 can be used in the POWER66 STD3.
1-Dynamic alone output

1-Dynamic alone output
To correctly use the output, we must set a various number of parameters and connect mnemonics.
1.1-Parameters
Parameters, for each output, are classified in different categories :

Category parameter Description
General
'Current FeedBack'
Must be checked if the user want a feedback of the current in the output.
'Load Type'
Configure the type of load connected to the ECU output
'Frequency range'
The output can operate on two different frequency ranges, this parameter determines the range to use 'High' or 'Low'.
'Frequency'
This parameter determines the frequency for the output, the range of possible values is determined by the previous parameter 'frequency range'.
'Recurr. Period:OUT_CMDa'
Set the recurrence time of the Frame 'OUT_CMD' sent by the master ECU to command the slave's outputs. This parameter is common for outputs OUT_1 to OUT_20 of the POWER66 STD3 ECU.
'Recurr. Period:OUT_CMDb'
Set the recurrence time of the Frame 'OUT_CMD' sent by the master ECU to command the slave's outputs. This parameter is common for outputs OUT_21 to OUT_40 of the POWER66 STD3 ECU.
'Recurr. Period: OUT_Ia'
If the option 'Current Feedback' is checked, we must set the recurrence time of the frame 'OUT_I' sent by the POWER to inform about the value of current in its outputs. This parameter is common for all the outputs OUT1, OUT2, OUT3, OUT4, OUT5, OUT6, OUT7, OUT8, OUT19, OUT20, BRIDGE1 and BRIDGE2.
'Recurr. Period: OUT_Ib'
If the option 'Current Feedback' is checked, we must set the recurrence time of the frame 'OUT_I' sent by the POWER to inform about the value of current in its outputs. This parameter is common for all the outputs OUT21, OUT22, OUT23, OUT24, OUT25, OUT26, OUT27, OUT28, OUT39, OUT30, BRIDGE3 and BRIDGE4
Degraded Mode 'Degraded Mode'
To use or not this output in degraded mode
'Polarisation 1er cycle'
The output can be activated in HS or LS in the first cycle of the degraded mode
'1s cycle'
Configure the state of the output in the first cycle of degraded mode (On/Off)
'Polarisation 2nd cycle'
The output can be activated in HS or LS in the second round of the degraded mode
'2nd cycle'
Configure the state of the output in the second cycle of degraded mode (On/Off)
Protection Profile 'Auto Calculate'
if this option is checked ,the protection profile parameters values are automatically calculated by ActiGRAF with the Nominal Load.
'OC_Range', 'OC_MThld', 'OC_HThld', 'OC_NThld' et OC_Time
These parameters are used to obtain the protection profile, we have two profiles :
i- Protection Profile For lamps
ii- Protection Profile For motors
Diagnostic 'Authorize MasterMode'
If this option is checked, the output can be controlled in Master mode during a diagnostic session

Alert! Advanced: Warning : Frames exchanged between the master and slaves induce a load on the used CAN BUS. This charge is inversely proportional to the value of recurrence.
Outputs with index less or equal than 20 have a common recurrence parameter value for each frame type. The same with outputs with indexes more than 20.

i- Protection Profile For lamps

This profile will be used if the load attached to the output is one of these types : 'Bulb Load' or 'Resistive Load'. The protection profile for bulb is activated once when the output is turned ON. The output is immediately switched OFF when the current cross up the profile. This profile is described in the graphic below. this graphic is made using the previously cited five parameters.

ii-Protection Profile For motors
As well as for Lamps, except this profile is applied when the load attached is "Motion Motor Load" or "Fan Motor Load". The following graphic describe the behaviour in the motor case :


1.2-Mnemonics
The mnemonics names for Powers ECU IO must applies a set of rules more details.

To activate and use an output,command values must be sent (ON/Off, duty cycle,current ...). This is done by connecting the mnemonics (presenting physical entities of the outputs) to their correspondent variable (functional outputs entities) declared and used in the EA application.

Bellow a description of each mnemonic and its use in the output :

Mnemonic STraToN Type Description
'Output_Boo'
BOOL this is the logical command of the output (activated or not). If this mnemonic is not used (connected) the output is not used.
'HS_LS'
BOOL Is the variable to control the activation level of the output. The value must be fixed to '1' to activate LS level all time on this standard. '0' value is prohibited: HS value can't work on this standard.
'Output_Dyn'
WORD This mnemonic must be connected to the variable STraToN containing the value of duty cycle.
'Fault'
BOOL This mnemonic is used to retrieve a default on the output, in this case the variable connected to it will take the Boolean 'TRUE'
'Fault_type'
BOOL In the case of a default, the variable connected to this mnemonic will indicate the type of default:
  • 0 : short circuit fault.
  • 1 : open circuit fault.
    • 'Current'
    		WORD This mnemonic will only be available if 'current Feedback' is selected. Variable connected to this mnemonic will contain the value of current applied to the output.The current measurement unit is 1 mA.
    'Equipment'
    		BOOL The usage of the variables of default is not active while the variable connected to this mnemonic has its value to 'False'( more details ).
