 Safety Information

Important Information

NOTICE
Read these instructions carefully, and look at the equipment to become familiar with the device
before trying to install, operate, service, or maintain it. The following special messages may appear
throughout this documentation or on the equipment to warn of potential hazards or to call attention
to information that clarifies or simplifies a procedure.

EIO0000002264 09/2020 5
PLEASE NOTE
Electrical equipment should be installed, operated, serviced, and maintained only by qualified
personnel. No responsibility is assumed by Schneider Electric for any consequences arising out of
the use of this material.
A qualified person is one who has skills and knowledge related to the construction and operation
of electrical equipment and its installation, and has received safety training to recognize and avoid
the hazards involved.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Do not use this product on machinery lacking effective point-of-operation guarding. Lack of
effective point-of-operation guarding on a machine can result in serious injury to the operator of
that machine.

WARNING
UNGUARDED EQUIPMENT
 Do not use this software and related automation equipment on equipment which does not have
point-of-operation protection.
 Do not reach into machinery during operation.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

This automation equipment and related software is used to control a variety of industrial processes.
The type or model of automation equipment suitable for each application will vary depending on
factors such as the control function required, degree of protection required, production methods,
unusual conditions, government regulations, etc. In some applications, more than one processor
may be required, as when backup redundancy is needed.
Only you, the user, machine builder or system integrator can be aware of all the conditions and
factors present during setup, operation, and maintenance of the machine and, therefore, can
determine the automation equipment and the related safeties and interlocks which can be properly
used. When selecting automation and control equipment and related software for a particular
application, you should refer to the applicable local and national standards and regulations. The
National Safety Council's Accident Prevention Manual (nationally recognized in the United States
of America) also provides much useful information.
In some applications, such as packaging machinery, additional operator protection such as point-
of-operation guarding must be provided. This is necessary if the operator's hands and other parts
of the body are free to enter the pinch points or other hazardous areas and serious injury can occur.
Software products alone cannot protect an operator from injury. For this reason the software
cannot be substituted for or take the place of point-of-operation protection.
Ensure that appropriate safeties and mechanical/electrical interlocks related to point-of-operation
protection have been installed and are operational before placing the equipment into service. All
interlocks and safeties related to point-of-operation protection must be coordinated with the related
automation equipment and software programming.

6 EIO0000002264 09/2020
 NOTE: Coordination of safeties and mechanical/electrical interlocks for point-of-operation
protection is outside the scope of the Function Block Library, System User Guide, or other
implementation referenced in this documentation.

START-UP AND TEST

Before using electrical control and automation equipment for regular operation after installation,
the system should be given a start-up test by qualified personnel to verify correct operation of the
equipment. It is important that arrangements for such a check be made and that enough time is
allowed to perform complete and satisfactory testing.

WARNING
EQUIPMENT OPERATION HAZARD
 Verify that all installation and set up procedures have been completed.
 Before operational tests are performed, remove all blocks or other temporary holding means
used for shipment from all component devices.
 Remove tools, meters, and debris from equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Follow all start-up tests recommended in the equipment documentation. Store all equipment
documentation for future references.
Software testing must be done in both simulated and real environments.
Verify that the completed system is free from all short circuits and temporary grounds that are not
installed according to local regulations (according to the National Electrical Code in the U.S.A, for
instance). If high-potential voltage testing is necessary, follow recommendations in equipment
documentation to prevent accidental equipment damage.
Before energizing equipment:
 Remove tools, meters, and debris from equipment.
 Close the equipment enclosure door.
 Remove all temporary grounds from incoming power lines.
 Perform all start-up tests recommended by the manufacturer.

EIO0000002264 09/2020 7
OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENTS
The following precautions are from the NEMA Standards Publication ICS 7.1-1995 (English
version prevails):
 Regardless of the care exercised in the design and manufacture of equipment or in the selection
and ratings of components, there are hazards that can be encountered if such equipment is
improperly operated.
 It is sometimes possible to misadjust the equipment and thus produce unsatisfactory or unsafe
operation. Always use the manufacturer’s instructions as a guide for functional adjustments.
Personnel who have access to these adjustments should be familiar with the equipment
manufacturer’s instructions and the machinery used with the electrical equipment.
 Only those operational adjustments actually required by the operator should be accessible to
the operator. Access to other controls should be restricted to prevent unauthorized changes in
operating characteristics.

The following figure shows the method for opening the 28-pin terminal block cover so that it can be
wired.

Labeling 28-Pin Terminal Block

The label for the 28-pin terminal block is supplied with the module.
Each label has two sides and can be slitted behind the front part of the cover:
 One side is visible from the outside when the cover is closed. This side features the commercial
product references, an abbreviated description of the module, and a blank section for customer
labeling.
 One side is visible from the inside when the cover is open. This side shows the terminal block
connection diagram.

Coding the Terminal Block

When installing a terminal block on a module, you can code the terminal block so that it may be
used only with a particular module. To do this, apply studs to both the terminal block and to the
module in a pattern so that the 2 components fit each other, but do not fit other modules or terminal
blocks. In this way, you can reduce the likelihood that a terminal block will be mounted on a module
other than the intended module.
To perform coding, use the studs on the STBXMP7800 guidance wheel. You can insert studs in
the 6 guidance slots on the left side of the module, and in the corresponding 6 slots in the terminal
block.
NOTE: The module connector has indicators that show the proper direction for inserting studs into
a terminal block installation.
To fit the terminal block to the module:
 a module slot with a stud corresponds to an empty slot in the terminal block, and
 a terminal block slot with a stud corresponds to an empty slot in the module

Sensor Interface

Description
One sensor is connected per channel:
 Magnetic pickup (MPU) sensor on the differential input
 Active pickup (APU) sensor on the three wire input
The sensor interface of the module can only be configured for MPU sensors.

MPU Signal Detection

The minimum signal detection value for MPU sensor can be configured by setting the parameter
MPU input Mode to one of the following modes:
 In Sensitive mode, the minimum signal detection value is 0.3 V peak to peak.
 In Noisy mode, the minimum signal detection value is 2.8 V peak to peak.

MPU Broken Wire Detection

The module can return random frequency values or zero in case of wrong connection with the MPU
sensor. The COUNTER_STATUS bit VALIDITY_FREQUENCY is false in both cases.
In addition, when the MPU broken wire detection is configured, the module can detect the wrong
connection of an MPU sensor while a random frequency or zero frequency is measured. The MPU
broken wire detection returns a fault when not detecting the normal condition as for an MPU sensor
properly connected.
The parameter MPU input Mode must be set in Sensitive mode when using the MPU broken wire
detection and the connected MPU sensor must satisfy the following characteristic table:

Expected characteristic Value From

Serial self Minimum 10 mH Internally to the MPU sensor
Serial resistor Minimum 150 Ω Internally to the MPU sensor
Parallel resistor Minimum 2 kΩ Optional signal resistor
Parallel capacitor Maximum 3 nF Cable from sensor to the terminal block

Setting the parameter MPU Line detection to With for sensors with other characteristics can give
an unexpected detection error.

56 EIO0000002264 09/2020
 Pre-treatment

Fast frequency changes from pulse to pulse must be avoided when using the MPU broken wire
detection. However when those variations are corrected using the pattern recognition, the broken
wire detection can be used.

CAUTION
UNEXPECTED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
 Do not enable the MPU broken wire detection when not using MPU sensor.
 Before enabling the MPU broken wire detection:
 Check the characteristics of the magnetic pickup sensor.
 Ensure that the machinery do not provide fast frequency changes from pulse to pulse.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.

Pre-treatment

Signal Filtering

Description
A programmable debounce filter with 4 levels (Without, Low, Medium, and High) is available at
every input. Filtering the input signal discards from glitches superimposed on the pickup signal.
The filter can limit the frequency within the application range, and remove higher frequencies
before filtering.

Selecting the Filtering Level

The following table specifies the effect of the selected level of filtering:

Filtering level Effect on the input signal

Without(1) Pulse detected: 1 μs
Frequency detected: 500 kHz
Low(2) Pulse rejected: Less than 4 μs
Frequency cut: 100 kHz
Medium Pulse rejected: Less than 40 μs
Frequency cut: 10 kHz
High Pulse rejected: Less than 400 μs
Frequency cut: 1 kHz
(1) When the Input Sensor filter parameter is set to Without, the pulse rejection is not specified and the
frequency cut is above 500 kHz. This option may be used for incremental encoders only.
(2) Default value for Input Sensor filter parameter in Control Expert configuration screen.

Signal Scaling

Scaling Functionality Description

The scaling function divides the input frequency prior to be measured.
Setting the parameter Scaling factor to 1 disables the scaling function and the frequency meter
value is the frequency of input signal.
Setting the parameter Scaling factor to a value N (2...1024) makes the frequency meter value
scaled with user unit. Each unit of frequency meter value equals N pulses received in the input
signal.

Scaling Example
For an application where one gear revolution equals 100 input pulses and the parameter Scaling
factor set to 100, the frequency meter value is the number of revolution per 1000 seconds.

UNEXPECTED FREQUENCY VALUE
Before using frequency values in the application:
 Check that the sensors are installed according to the supplier recommendations.
 Confirm that the sensors are connected to the terminal block according to the wiring rules.
 Confirm that the signal filtering (see page 58) function is correctly configured.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Sampling Period Configuration

The parameter Sampling Factor defines the sampling period value.
The sampling period (1 / sampling rate) can be configured to 10...200 ms in steps of 10 ms.
By default, the sampling period value is 10 ms (sampling rate = 100 Hz).

62 EIO0000002264 09/2020
 Frequency Meter

Adaptive Integration Period

For each sampling period value, the module considers the best integration period to calculate the
frequency value with the best accuracy (see page 81).
NOTE: The integration period calculated contains at least one pulse.
The figure below shows how the module considers the best Integration period depending on
frequencies of the input signals:

1, 2 and 3 Input signal for various frequencies

4 Sampling periods
5 Best integration periods corresponding to the input frequency.

NOTE:
 The integration period is close to the last sampling period when the frequency of the input signal
is greater than the sampling rate.
 The integration period is close to the last input signal when the frequency of the input signal is
less than the sampling rate.
The maximum value for the integration period does not exceed 1 s and the minimum measurable
frequency is 1 HZ.

Pattern Recognition

Pattern Recognition Definition

WARNING
UNEXPECTED FREQUENCY VALUE
Ensure that the MPU sensor provides the minimum input voltage (see page 23) for pattern
recognition.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

At a stabilized speed, a gear can generate a dedicated pulse delay for each tooth. During repetitive
cycles, the machinery generates irregular pulses. The module functionality can correct the
calculation mode of the frequency value for irregular pulse.
To be corrected:
 The same pattern of irregular pulses must be reproduced at each cycle. That means, one cycle
of the pattern equals one revolution of the gear.
 The pattern of irregular pulses must be learned with a learning sequence.
NOTE: The velocity of the machinery must be stable during the learning sequence.
For best accuracy:
 The faster pulse should not exceed 40 kHz
 The ratio of faster to slower pulse should not exceed 20

The figure below show a repetitive cycle:

1 Sampling period
2 Pattern of the repetitive cycle
3 Integration period

When the pattern recognition is activated, the frequency value derives from a corrected integration
period instead of the measured integration period.

64 EIO0000002264 09/2020
 Frequency Meter

For each sampling period, the integration period is corrected according to the received pulses
within the measured period.
As for conditions:
 A fixed number of teeth have been configured.
 The correction ratio of each pulse has been internally memorized during the learning sequence.

Pattern Recognition Configuration

The parameter Pattern Resolution defines the quality of the pattern recognition correction:
 when the parameter is set to 1:1000 (Default):
 Accuracy of the frequency value is impacted by 0.1% during the run time.
 The minimum speed must be 60 rotations per minute during the learning sequence.

 when the parameter is set to 1:10000:

 Accuracy of the frequency value is impacted by 0.01% during the run time.
 The minimum speed must be 600 rotations per minute and the maximum recommended
frequency is 4 kHz during the learning sequence.
The parameter Pattern Number defines the number of pulses within the pattern. According to the
number of pulses declared, the pattern recognition is configured into one of the following modes:
 Continuous mode when the number of pulses within the pattern is set to 2...256.
In this mode the pattern learning cycles while the control bit FORCE_PATTERN_LEARN is active.
 Triggered mode when the number of pulses within the pattern is set to 257...512.
In this mode the pattern learning is executed once on rizing edge of the control bit
FORCE_PATTERN_LEARN.

How to Control the Pattern Recognition

The following figure shows how to control the pattern recognition with the application:

Sequence Description
1 When the pattern recognition is not required:
 ENABLE_PATTERN_RECOGNITION is false or
 The configuration parameter Pattern Number is set to 1.

The frequency value is calculated without corrected integration period (The pattern recognition
function is disabled). The VALIDITY_FREQUENCY bit is true (that is frequency, acceleration,
and jerk values are guaranteed).
2 The pattern recognition is required but not possible:
 ENABLE_PATTERN_RECOGNITION is true and
 The configuration parameter Pattern Number is set to a value > 1 and
 The pattern learning is not completed.

The frequency value is still calculated without corrected integration period. The
VALIDITY_FREQUENCY bit is false (uncertain) and the application has to trigger the pattern
learning process.
3 The pattern recognition is required and possible:
 ENABLE_PATTERN_RECOGNITION is true and
 The configuration parameter Pattern Number is set to a value > 1 and
 Pattern learning is done

The frequency value is calculated with corrected integration period. The

VALIDITY_FREQUENCY bit is true (that is frequency, acceleratrion, and jerk values are
guaranteed).
4 The step 2 is not mandatory, the application can enable the pattern recognition after the
pattern learning done (PATTERN_LEARNT is true).

66 EIO0000002264 09/2020
 Frequency Meter

Pattern Learning System

Pattern learning must be executed once after the machinery have started and before applying the
pattern recognition. The velocity of the machinery must be stable during the learning sequence.
The variable COUNTER_STATUS (%IW.r.m.c.0) reports the state of the pattern learning system
to the application. The application implements the recommended sequence to control the pattern
learning before enabling the correction.

How to Control the Pattern Learning

Application can implement the following sequence to control the pattern learning:

Sequence Description
1 The machinery has started and reached a stable velocity conducive to learn the pattern.
2 Application triggers the pattern learning. After the pattern learning is started, the application
can reset the control bit FORCE_PATTERN_LEARN.
3 Module is executing the pattern learning once for the first time.This is the learning sequence.
4 Pattern learning is completed according to the number of pulses defined in the configuration.
The ratio of each pulse within the pattern is now held until the next power cycle.
The frequency value can be corrected with the pattern recognition and reports the velocity of
the machinery into the regulation area.
5 Application can trigger again the pattern learning.
Depending on the mode set in the configuration screen, the pattern recognition can be
interrupted:
 In continuous mode, the pattern recognition is possible while the pattern learning cycles.
 In triggered mode, the pattern recognition stops during each new learning sequence.

Acceleration and Jerk Values

Acceleration and Jerk

In addition to the frequency value, the module provides an acceleration value (ACC) and a jerk
value (JRK) at the same sampling rate of the frequency meter value:

1 Sampling period
2 Input signal
3 Integration period
FM Frequency meter value in pulses/1000 seconds
ACC Acceleration value (in pulses/s2) is the rate of change of the refreshed frequency meter value.
JRK Jerk value (in 1000*pulses/s3) is the rate of change of the refreshed acceleration value.

Acceleration and Deceleration Maximum Values

The maximum acceleration value is 32767 pulses/s2.
NOTE: For acceleration values exceeding the maximum value, the module returns 32767
pulses/s2.
To illustrate, consider the example of turbo machinery which starting period takes 10 seconds to
reach the maximum velocity (32000 pulses per second). During the ramp up, the module will return
the acceleration value 3200 pulses/s2.
The maximum deceleration value is -32767 pulses/s2.
NOTE: For deceleration values exceeding the maximum value, the module returns -32767
pulses/s2.

Application Example

Illustration
The following graphic presents how a turbo machinery application can manage the velocity of a
diesel engine or reciprocating machine with no regular pulses over one revolution:

Example Steps Description

The following table describes the above steps of the example:

Step Description
1 Machine is idle
2 Application controls the machinery for starting. The velocity increases to reach the nominal speed in
2.5 s.
3 Application stops increasing the velocity and maintains a constant speed. At this step, the application
commands the module to learn the pattern wave form at a stable speed of revolution.
4 Application can increase the velocity after the module has learned the pattern. Pattern recognition is
available right now. It could be enabled while the application brings speed next to nominal position.
For more detail, refer to chapter RPM during Pattern learning (see page 82).
5 The application fine governs the machinery for nominal velocity. At this step, the pattern recognition
must be enabled to provide the best accuracy of the measure. Typical system accuracy for RPM is +/-
5 %.
6 Application controls the machinery stopping with or without application of the pattern recognition.
7 The pattern recognition is not mandatory in step 7.

Compare Function

Description
The frequency value can be checked with two defined limits (lower and upper).
The result of the compare function can provide:
 Alarm
 Event sending
 Change for the physical output

Compare Limits
The compare function has two limits:
 The lower limit: MINIMUM_FREQUENCY double word (%QDr.m.c.2)
 The upper limit: MAXIMUM_FREQUENCY double word (%QDr.m.c.4)
The upper limit value must be greater than the lower limit value. If the upper limit value is less than
or equal to the lower limit value, the lower limit does not change but it is ignored.
The default value for both MAXIMUM_FREQUENCY and MINIMUM_FREQUENCY is 0.

WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Set parameters MINIMUM_FREQUENCY and MAXIMUM_FREQUENCY to right values before
enabling the compare function.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Compare Result
The results are stored in the COMPARE_STATUS register which is updated at the same time than
the frequency value.
The possible results are:
 FREQUENCY_METER_LESS: The frequency value is less than the lower limit value.
 FREQUENCY_METER_WINDOW: The value is between the upper and lower limits or equal to one
of the two limits.
 FREQUENCY_METER_GREAT: The value is greater than the upper limit.

EIO0000002264 09/2020 71
Compare

Modification of the Limits During the Operational Phase

If the application needs to modify the limits, the COMPARE_SUSPEND bit holds the
COMPARE_STATUS (%IWr.m.c.1) register during the modification.
COMPARE_STATUS register needs the COMPARE_ENABLE bit (%Qr.m.c.5) set active (1) and
COMPARE_SUSPEND bit (%Qr.m.c.4) set inactive (0) to be updated.
Care must be exercised when limit compares are active to avoid unintended or unexpected results
from the outputs or from sudden event task execution. If the compare function is disabled, limit
values can be modified freely since COMPARE_STATUS is forced to 0. However, if the compare
function is enabled, suspend at least the compare function while modifying the limit values.

WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Do not change limit values without using the COMPARE_SUSPEND bit if COMPARE_ENABLE bit is
set to 1.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Reflex Output Function Block

Reflex Output Function Block

Overview
Each channel of the module has one programmable output function block that operates with the
compare status register and affects the behavior of physical outputs.
In addition, the output function block enables the output mirroring of the internal scaling pulse.
There are two ways to control the output:
From the application: The output corresponds to the status of the output bit from the output
command bit.
From the output function block: The user must enable the output block function. Then, the output
corresponds to the status of the output bit from the function block.
The following figure shows the output function block collaborating with the physical output:

EIO0000002264 09/2020 73
Reflex Output Function Block

Output Block Configuration

The operational latch mode must be chosen among 11 functions in configuration tab.
As stated, the output comes:
 Directly, from the application software (Normal Output): One function.
 From the output function block (Reflex Output): 10 functions.
The output matches the state of the output bit in the output function block result.
The following table shows the configurable functions:

Function code Programming

0 No reflex action (default)
1 Frequency meter Less
The logical output to 1 when frequency value is less than the lower
threshold.
2 Frequency meter Window
The logical output to 1 when frequency value is between the upper and
lower thresholds or equal to one of the two thresholds.
3 Frequency meter Great
The logical output is 1 when frequency value is greater than the upper
threshold.
4 Frequency meter Stopped
The logical output is 1 when no input frequency is detected.
5 Frequency meter Under Limit
The logical output is 1 when the input frequency is too slow.
6 Frequency meter Over Limit
The logical output is 1 when the input frequency is too fast.
7 Pulse = Frequency meter Less
The logical output to 1 during the time delay after frequency value is less
than the lower threshold. The time delay is defined by the PulseWidth
parameter.
8 Pulse = Frequency meter Window
The logical output to 1 during the time delay after frequency value is
between the upper and lower thresholds or equal to one of the two
thresholds. The time delay is defined by the PulseWidth parameter.
9 Pulse = Frequency meter Great
The logical output to 1 during the time delay after frequency value is
greater than the upper threshold. The time delay is defined by the
PulseWidth parameter.
10 Scaling Pulse
The logical output follows the internal scaling pulse (up to 10 kHz).
NOTE: The Scaling Pulse can’t work when the parameter Scaling factor
is set to 1.

 Reflex Output Function Block

Output Properties
It is possible to configure the following parameters for each output:
 The module response for detected error recovery.
 The output polarity (positive or negative polarity).
 The fallback mode.

Detected Error Recovery

Outputs are current limited (0.5 A maximum).
A thermal shutdown protects each output.
When a short-circuit is detected on one of the channel outputs, the module enables one of the two
following actions according to the configuration:
 Setting the parameter Fault recovery to Latched off: The module latches off the output channel.
 Setting the parameter Fault recovery to Autorecovery: The module latches off the output
channel and automatically attempts to recover the detected error and resume operation on the
channel when the detected error is corrected.
In case of the Fault recovery parameter is set to Latched off, if an output channel has been latched
off because of short-circuit detection, the module recovers from the short-circuit after the following
is processed:
 The short-circuit has been corrected
 To reset the detected error, the application must:
 Reset the ENABLE_OUTPUT_LATCH bit if it is active
 Command the output to 0 Vdc (depends on the polarity).

In case of the Fault recovery parameter is set to Autorecovery, an output channel that has been
turned off because of error detection starts operating again as soon as the detected error is
corrected. No user intervention is required to reset the channels.
NOTE: A minimum delay of 10 s occurs before the detected error is cleared in both latched off and
auto recovery modes.

EIO0000002264 09/2020 75
Reflex Output Function Block

Output Polarity Programming

It is possible to configure the Polarity parameter for each output during the channel configuration:
 Setting the parameter Polarity to Polarity +: The physical output is 24 Vdc when the output is at
high level (ST_OUTPUT = 1; %I.r.m.c.0)
 Setting the parameter Polarity to Polarity -: The physical output is 24 Vdc when the output is at
low level (ST_OUTPUT = 0; %I.r.m.c.0)
NOTE: To be applied, the negative polarity required the module is running.
By default, the output channel is in positive polarity.

CAUTION
UNEXPECTED OUTPUT VALUE
Do not use the output polarity configuration for controlling an energized safe actuator.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.

Output Fallback Modes

The fallback modes are the predefined states to which the output channels revert when the channel
is not controlled by the processor (for example, when communications are lost or when the
processor is stopped).
The fallback mode of output channel can be configured as one of the following modes:
 Setting the parameter Fallback to With: you may configure the Fallback value parameter as 0
or 1
 Setting the parameter Fallback to Without: the output block function continues to operate
according to the last received commands.
NOTE: By default, the fallback mode of the output channels is set to With and the parameter
Fallback value is set to 0.

Chapter 9
Dual Channel Function

Dual Channel Function

Dual Channel Function

Overview
The module enables signal comparisons between one channel and the concurrent channel in the
module. Each input channel gives ratio and angle values calculated with the concurrent input
channel and reciprocally.
Ratio and angle values are provided together at the rate of the concurrent channel, with a
maximum of 10 measures per second.
Dedicated validity bits for both ratio and angle values are provided in the variable
COUNTER_STATUS (%IW.r.m.c.0). In addition, after the ratio or the angle measure done an
event can be generated (see page 111).
Neither configuration nor programming is required to provide the ratio and angle. However the
function provides ratio and angle values related to one channel as long as the input frequency on
the concurrent channel does not exceed what received on this channel.

Ratio
Ratio gives the number of received pulses on one channel within two pulses received on the
concurrent channel. An example is given below:

1 Channel input
2 Concurrent channel input

In the typical use case:

 The dual channel function is to calculate mechanical ratio between gears,
 The ratio remains stable for one application,
 The concurrent channel receives a signal from metal detection of the crank of machinery while
the channel input receives a signal from speed detection of a gear.
Hence, the ratio value gives the number of teeth for one gear revolution.

EIO0000002264 09/2020 77
Dual Channel

In an application trying to measure ratio greater than 65535, the module provides unexpected
values.

WARNING
UNEXPECTED APPLICATION BEHAVIOR - INCORRECT INTERPRETATION OF DATA
Do not measure a ratio greater than 65535.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Angle
Angle is given by the time delay between the last received pulse on one input channel and the
pulse on the concurrent input channel. An example is given below:

1 Channel input
2 Concurrent channel input
3 Time delay

Angle value is calculated according to the formula: Time delay = Angle x 0.5 μs
In the typical use cases:
 The pulse ratio (between gears) is regular,
 The velocity is stable when the application considers the angle value.

Hence, the application can retrieve the mechanical angle between gears on assessing the angle
value versus the input signal period (1/F).
In other application, the value can report the phase angle between two same frequencies (for
example 50/60 Hz)
The Angle value is calculated for input signal frequency greater than 40 Hz. For input signal
frequency less than 40 Hz, the Angle value is forced to 65535.

Frequency Range and Accuracy

Frequency Range
The minimum frequency of the input signal is N (pulses per second) - 5%. Where N is the value set
for the parameter Scaling Factor.
The minimum frequency meter value is 950 pulses per 1000 seconds. As a result, the module
holds the frequency value to 0 while not receiving N pulses during 1.1 second.
The maximum frequency of the input signal is 500 kHz. That corresponds to a maximum frequency
meter value = 500,000,000 pulses per 1000 seconds.
The maximum frequency of the input signal depends on the Sampling Factor. It decreases to
200 kHz for sampling rate = 200 ms.
The following graphic represents the maximum frequency versus Sampling Factor (with Scaling
Factor = 1):

Y Maximum frequency (in kHz)

 Performance

Frequency Accuracy
The figure below shows what is the module provided along the frequency range:

For each input frequency, the module provides frequency values close to the expected value
(theoretical value).
Accuracy is defined with the relative error between the expected value and the group of provided
values (maximum value, minimum value).
The linearity error is the gap between the maximum provided value and the minimum provided
value. In usual turbomachinery speed, the linearity error is less than 0.003%.
The internal clock error (+/- 0.01%) is the absolute error due to the internal system clock (Quartz).
To estimate the maximum error of the module, you have to consider the internal clock error in
addition to the linearity error.
The pattern recognition system introduces deterioration in accuracy of 0.1% with regular pattern
resolution of 1:1000.
The pattern recognition system introduces deterioration in accuracy of 0.01% with fine pattern
resolution of 1:10000.
The module round-down the frequency value to 10 mHz instead of 1 mHz when the pattern
recognition is operating.

RPM During Pattern Learning

The RPM is the rate of pattern per minute.
In order to reach the best performance:
 RPM must be stable during the learning sequence (about 3 seconds).
 RPM must be within the best window according to the number of pulses per pattern.

The following graphic defines the best windows:

X Rate of pattern per minute (RPM)

Y Number of pulses per pattern (Teeth)

Window Executing Pattern Learning

A This window is only valid to execute a pattern learning sequence if the parameter Pattern

Resolution
C In this window the learning sequence is executed with a pattern resolution of 1:1000 whatever
the setting configured for the parameter Pattern Resolution.
D Pattern learning is not guaranteed if the parameter Pattern Resolution is set to 1:10000.

NOTE: During the learning sequence, when the parameter Scaling factor is set to a value N
(N > 1), the frequency meter value is not updated.

Application Diagnostic
The following bits of the COUNTER_STATUS word provides details on the validity of the produced
values:

Bit Position Label Meaning

0 VALIDITY_FREQUENCY 0 reports that the frequency value is no more refreshed
for any reason
1 when the frequency value can be used
1 VALIDITY_RATIO 0 reports that the ratio value is no more refreshed for
any reason
1 when the ratio value can be used
2 VALIDITY_ANGLE 0 reports that the angle value is no more refreshed for
any reason
1 when the angle value can be used
5 STOPPED Input frequency is stopped for more than 1 second
6 UNDER_LIMIT Input frequency too low
The frequency is less than 100 Hz when the sampling
period is 10 ms. In general the frequency is less than
the sampling rate.
Frequency value still provided and valid until the input
frequency detected stopped
7 OVER_LIMIT Input frequency too high
Input frequency reaches 80% or more than the input
bandwidth. Bandwidth depends on the configured input
filter.
Value still provided and valid until the input frequency
detected stopped because the input frequency fast

Alarm Bits
The alarm bits enable the module to latch events until the application has treated it.
The events checked to provide an alarm are:
 Frequency stopped
 Under module limits
 Over module limits
 Results of compare function

Alarm bits are provided in Ebool format via the variable interface and can be stamped into a SOE
managed with M580 CPU which the module is declared into the MAST task.

Time Stamping

Time Stamping

Time Stamping

Summary
In an M580 configuration, alarm bits (see page 109) provided by the module can be time stamped.
For detail refer to the System Time Stamping, User Guide.
Using the Data Editor screen in Control Expert, the module device DDT enables selecting the
alarm bit to time stamp and to assign the trigger condition.

Limitation and Performance

The event detection is processed on both value changes edge (rising and falling). No selection of
transition edge is possible in the PLC system time stamping.
The events are detected and stamped at the same rate as the PLC task (only the MAST task).
NOTE: Time stamping of the alarm bits (ST_ALARM_•••) can only be set directly on the variable
bit address (%I). The IODDT structure does not enable such setting for the same bits.
