SM-Applications Lite V2

The SM-Applications Lite module is designed to provide programmable control for standalone drive applications or when the drive is connected to a centralised controller via I/O or Fieldbus. SM-Applications Lite may be programmed using ladder logic with SyPTLite or can make use of the full automation and motion capabilities contained within SyPTPro.

* Easy Powerful Configuration – SM-Application Lite can be used to tackle automation problems from simple start/stop sequencing with a single drive to more complex machine and motion control applications.
* Real Time Control –The SM-Applications Lite module gives you real-time access to all of the drives parameters plus access to data from I/O and other drives. The module uses a high speed multi-tasking operating system with task update times as low as 250us. Tasks are synchronised to the drives own control loops to give you the best possible performance for drive control and motion.

SM-ApplicationsSM-Applications Plus

SM-Applications offers all of the features of the SM-Applications Lite module but with additional communications and high speed I/O. SM-Applications is programmed using SyPTPro system programming tool.

* Inputs/Outputs – The module has two digital inputs and two digital outputs for high-speed I/O operations such as position capture and actuator firing.
* High speed serial port - The module features a serial communications port supporting standard protocols such as Modbus for connection to external devices such as Operator Interface panels.
* Drive-to-drive communications - SM-Applications option modules include a high speed drive-to-drive network called CTNet, this network is optimised for intelligent drive systems offering flexible peer to peer communications. The bus has the capability to connect to remote I/O, operator panels, Mentor DC drives and PCs using an OPC server.


SM-RegisterSM-Register New - High Speed Motion & Registration Control

SM-Register is designed to provide a flexible, high performance solution for programmable motion requiring high speed registration features. It is ideal for applications such as printing, packaging and cutting machinery.

* Motion programming using PLCopen or Control Techniques’ Advanced Position Controller (APC)
* Programmable in user defined units
* Two fully independent registration capture channels
* Storage for 256 events per channel, microseconds apart
* Pattern recognition
* Speeds in excess of 1000m/min can be handled
* Ability to filter unwanted marks (i.e. splashes, dirt, text etc)
* Filtering capability:
o Minimum and/or maximum pulse width
o Distance from previous edge
* Compensation for registration sensor throughput delay


SM-EZ MotionSM-EZ Motion

The SM-EZ motion option module and Power Tools Pro software provides a user friendly environment for motion programming. The EZ-Motion approach is ideal for applications that are low volume and low engineering time.

* Simple drag & drop programming allows you to create programs “out of the box” without having to write a single line of code
* Programming completed in 5-steps, the software guides you through drive configuration, I/O configurations and programming steps
* Familiar Windows™-based environment with simple data entry
– “Fill-in-the-Blank” values
– “Point and Click” Radio Buttons
– “Scrolling” menu selections
– “Drag and Drop” parameters
* The module has four digital inputs and two digital outputs for high-speed I/O operations


LogicStickLogicstick

Inserting the LogicStick into the front of the drive adds the memory required to allow the Commander SK to execute a ladder logic PLC program. The PLC program is able access the drive parameters, option module I/O and Real Time Clock (RTC).
