Load Initial Profile Values
This chapter describes how to load profile setpoints for inject and clamp
operations. You determine initial values and enter setpoints into PLC-5
data table for the following profiles:
Clamp Close Profile (CPC)
Injection Profile (IPC)
Pack/Hold Profile (HPC)
Plastication Profile (PPC)
Clamp Open Profile (OPC)
Important: This chapter continues the procedure for loading information
into the QDC module. Complete chapter 7 before starting this chapter.
The following table lists command blocks and corresponding worksheets
for recording your initial values that you download to the QDC module.
To configure the QDC module

Clamp Open Profile Block (OPC) Worksheet 8E 8-30
Take a moment now to browse through the first worksheet.
Notice that it contains two parts:
control words for selecting parameters by setting bits
block of data words for recording initial profile values
Also notice that many parameters repeat within the profile block.
For example: segments 1-11 for velocity setpoints
Because many parameters repeat within a worksheet, we present each
worksheet followed by text telling you how to determine initial values.
Complete one worksheet before going to the next. This differs from the
procedure in chapter 7.
