ProControl 1KS Integration Specifics
3A1080C 47
Digital Inputs
See Automation Flow Charts, pages 50-54.
Mix Start: This is a maintained input. When High, the
ProControl 1KS will attempt to enter Mix mode. This Mix
Start input should not be attempted unless the
Mix_Ready output is recognized. This ensures that
there are no alarms and that the Mix Start input is
appropriate.
This input stays High at all times when mixing on
demand is required. When Low, the intent is to stop mix-
ing material and perform a purge or recipe change.
Do not toggle this input to set the unit to Standby mode
during short work stoppages. The ProControl 1KS will
automatically go into Idle mode after 2 minutes of inac-
tivity. When a Gun Trigger input is seen, the ProControl
1KS will automatically leave Idle mode and resume mix-
ing material where it left off.
Purge Start: This is a maintained input. When recog-
nized by the ProControl 1KS, the Purge Sequence will
start, using the Purge Time from the active recipe. This
will also include the Solvent Fill Time. Proper monitoring
of the Purge/Color Change Output is required to ensure
this function has begun. Once this output is removed,
the system will immediately go to Standby mode.
Color Change Start: This is a momentary input, 100
msec minimum. When recognized by the ProControl
1KS, the Color Change sequence will begin, starting at
the Color/Catalyst Dump.
NOTE: If the new recipe has the same color as the
active recipe, then the Color/Catalyst Dump and
Color/Catalyst Fill times are skipped and the Color
Change Sequence starts with the Purge. Also, the rec-
ipe bit configuration for the Color Change must be
loaded at least 100 msec before the Color Change Start
input is turned on. The recipe bit configuration must
remain on while the Color Change Start input is
removed. Graco recommends the recipe bits stay active
and do not change until a new color is required. The
PLC should monitor the Purge/Color Change Output as
well as the Fill Active Output to ensure the process hap-
pens as required. A complete color change without
errors (resulting in a Mix Ready Output state) is a com-
pleted color change.
NOTE: This also applies if using the Modbus Registers
(see the Modbus Map table in manual 312785).
Gun Trigger: When High, this input signals the ProCon-
trol 1KS that the gun is actually triggered. It should be
sent every time the gun is triggered. This input provides
timing for alarm functions and also drives the flow con-
trol functions. Without it, no flow control functions will
start.
Job Complete: This is a momentary input, 100 msec
minimum. When recognized by the ProControl 1KS, the
Job totals are cleared and a time/date stamp is added
for retrieval.
Remote Stop: Use this input when external equipment
is used to stop the system. Clear any alarms before
using this input. For more information about when this
input is needed, contact your Graco distributor.
Alarm Reset: This is a momentary input, 100 msec
minimum. When recognized by the ProControl 1KS it
clears any active alarms and allows the automation to
take the next step.
Common: This is not an input, but the ProControl 1KS
expects to have the COM side of the 24 Vdc supply con-
nected as shown in Table 8. This ensures proper opera-
tion of each input and output.
