Smart counter for ALTIVAR 11

• ALTIVAR 11 ( ATV11HU41M2E )
• Unstabilized 24V Power Supplie
• 24V signal impuls odometer

• Count signals from 24V signal impuls odometer (down or up to final preset number)
• Preset count number
• Large display number
• Input Keyboard
• Control Logical Inputs on ALTIVAR 11 (speed, ramp) with Optisolated line
• Control Fault line with Optoisolated line

We will need one plastic case with follow dimension :axbxc
It is good decision to use one electrical junction box.

We will need 5x Optocuppler for 4x digital outout (L1, L2, L3, L4) and one for optical rotation detection digital input.
Depend of function Optocuppler must have right orientation (input parts have LED in circuite).

One 20×4 (2004) character LED display will be used to show information, and 5x tactile switchs (2 gray Up/Down, 1 black 1x/10x/100x, 1 red Stop and 1 green Start).
To connect all together it will be use LCD & Keyboard Adapter Board which use 7 digital I/O line for communication with LCD Display and 1 analogue line for connection with 5 keys.

LSP (low speed) - from 0 to HSP (default 0Hz)
HSP (high speed) - from LSP to 200Hz (default 50/60Hz)

When 3C is set LSP is final working speed predefined via configuration or set via resistor on analog input.

Ramp and Ramp2 is predefined in seconds which will take from begining speed till final speed.
Image of logical sinalisation:

L1 Stop
L2 Run/Forward
L3 Speed2
L4 Second Ramp

tCC → ACt → 3C
rrS → n0
PS2 → LIA → LI3
PS2 → LIb → n0
PS2 → SP2 → 25
rP2 → LI → LI4

• Up (gray) - counter plus x
• Down (gray) - counter minus x
• Multiplay (black) - set x (1,10,100)
• Stop (red) - reset counter to 0
• Start (green) - start working part

• Stop (red) - stop working part
• Up (gray) - start speed 2 set
• Down (gray) - stop speed 2 set

Any key press for final screen.
