- RST-knap: Resets the counter or timer.
- MD Button: Used to cycle through modes or confirm settings.
- Pileknapper: Bruges til at navigere i menuer og justere værdier.
- Indicators (OUT, CNT, TMR, LOCK, PS): Provide visual feedback on the unit's status and selected function.
4. Opsætning og installation
4.1 Panelmontering
The CT6Y-I2 is designed for flush panel mounting. Ensure the panel cutout dimensions are W72mm x H36mm. Secure the unit using the provided mounting brackets.
4.2 Ledningsføring
Refer to the wiring diagram on the unit's casing or in the full technical manual for precise connections. Ensure all connections are secure and correct before applying power.
- Strømforsyning: Connect to 24-48VDC or 24VAC. Verify correct polarity for DC power.
- Input signal: The unit supports selectable Voltage (PNP) or No Voltage (NPN) inputs.
- Voltage Input (PNP): Høj input voltage (H) is 5-30VDC.
- No Voltage Input (NPN): Lav input voltage (L) is 0-2VDC.
- Udgangsterminaler: Connect to external devices as required for control or indication.
5. Betjeningsvejledning
The CT6Y-I2 can function as both a counter and a timer. The specific operating mode and parameters are configured via the front panel buttons.
5.1 Grundlæggende betjening
- Tænd: Once wired correctly, apply power. The display will illuminate.
- Nulstil (RST): Press the RST button to clear the current count or timer value.
- Mode Selection (MD): Press the MD button to cycle through different operating modes or parameter settings. Hold the MD button to enter setup menus.
- Value Adjustment (Arrow Buttons): Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to change numerical values. Use the Left/Right arrow buttons to move the cursor for digit selection during setting adjustments.
5.2 Counter Mode
In counter mode, the unit increments or decrements based on input signals. Configure the input type (PNP/NPN) and counting direction in the setup menu.
- Tællehastighed: The unit supports high-speed counting up to 10,000 counts per second.
- Prescaling: Set the prescaling range from 0.00001 to 99999.9 to adjust the display value relative to the input pulses.
5.3 Timertilstand
In timer mode, the unit measures time intervals. Various timing operations (e.g., ON delay, OFF delay) can be selected. The minimum ON/OFF pulse duration is 0.1ms.
6. Vedligeholdelse
The AUTONICS CT6Y-I2 is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance.
- Rensning: Tør forsigtigt frontpanelet af med en blød, tør klud. Brug ikke slibende rengøringsmidler eller opløsningsmidler.
- Inspektion: Periodically check wiring connections for tightness and signs of wear or damage.
- Miljø: Ensure the operating environment remains within specified conditions (temperature, humidity, absence of corrosive gases).
7. Fejlfinding
If the unit does not operate as expected, consider the following common issues:
- Ingen visning: Kontroller strømforsyningens tilslutninger og volumentage. Ensure the unit is receiving power within its specified range (24-48VDC / 24VAC).
- Incorrect Counting/Timing: Verify input signal wiring and type (PNP/NPN) settings. Check the prescaling value and minimum ON/OFF pulse settings. Ensure the input signal meets the required voltage levels (H: 5-30VDC, L: 0-2VDC).
- Knapper reagerer ikke: Check if the unit is in a locked state (indicated by 'LOCK' indicator). Refer to the full manual for unlocking procedures.
- Uregelmæssig adfærd: Check for electrical noise or interference in the environment. Ensure proper grounding.
For persistent issues, consult the comprehensive technical manual or contact AUTONICS support.
