See instruction manual JĆ3615 for more information about ASD. 1.4.5 Converting from Previous Versions Systems created with Version 2 of the AutoMax Programming Executive software can be converted into AutoMax Executive V3.x systems. Refer to section 5.3.8 for instructions.
2.0 INTRODUCTION TO THE AutoMax DISTRIBUTED CONTROL SYSTEM AutoMax is a programmable, microprocessorĆbased control system capable of performing realĆtime control with millisecond response time. Because AutoMax is modular, you can customĆconfigure the system to meet the specific requirements of your application. In addition, the Processor module operating system is included in the AutoMax Executive software and can be loaded from the same device used for writing application programs.
The Enhanced BASIC language is used for general programming, keyboard and CRTĆbased operator interfaces, and numeric processing. Enhanced BASIC language is described in JĆ3675. Using the AutoMax Executive software, application programs, or tasks, created on the personal computer using Control Block or BASIC are then compiled and downloaded to one or more AutoMax Processor modules or UDC modules in a rack. Application tasks created using Ladder Logic do not need to be compiled before being downloaded.

2.2 Introduction to Configuring Racks and Variables Once you create the system/section/rack structure for your application, you can begin to configure the hardware in your installation. Hardware configuration consists of adding modules to each rack (including network and remote racks, UDC modules, and PMI rail hardware) to reflect the actual installation. AutoMax Executive V3.x checks that modules are added properly.
Tasks that control Distributed Power Drives (DPS) are stored and executed on UDC (Universal Drive Controller) modules in the rack. UDC tasks are written in control block language. They are referred to as UDC tasks." See the appropriate DPS programming and configuration instruction manual for more information about UDC tasks. AutoMax Processors are capable of multiĆtasking.
2.4 Introduction to Online Operations Before you can go online to any rack in the system, the operating system, or runbase, for the AutoMax Processor and UDC module(s) must be loaded to the rack. In general, you will only be concerned with the file types listed below for purposes of loading to the rack. 1. Operating system (OS) file Each Processor module and UDC module must have an operating system file. The operating system for each Processor module in a rack is usually the same.
3.0 NOTES ON INSTALLATION This section describes what you need to know before installing the Programming Executive software. Refer to instruction manual J2Ć3107 for the installation procedure.

4.0 GETTING AROUND IN THE AutoMax EXECUTIVE AND WINDOWS All operations in Windows can be executed with either the keyboard or the mouse. The sections that follow describe techniques used to make selections and execute commands. All techniques will be described using both the keyboard and mouse. The Microsoft Windows User's Guide provides additional information on basic skills and should be referred to for any specific questions. Keyboard Keys In this manual, keynames are capitalized (ESC, ENTER, CTRL).
Figure 4.1 Ć Choosing a Command If you are using the keyboard, there are two ways to choose commands from Windows menus: the basic method and the direct access method. The basic method uses the DIRECTION keys. To choose a command, follow these steps: Step 1. Press ALT,LEFT (or RIGHT) to select the menu on the menu bar. Step 2. Press ENTER to display the menu. Step 3. Use UP or DOWN to select the command you want. Step 4. Press ENTER to execute the command.

4.5 Inactive Commands If a command name is displayed in a lighter text on the menu, it means that the command is currently not accessible. You may have to select something before you can use the command. See figure 4.3. Figure 4.3 Ć Dimmed Commands 4.6 Making Multiple Selections from Lists When you work with AutoMax Executive V3.x, you must select the item that the next command or action will affect.
A is displayed by AutoMax when additional information is needed to execute a command. The dialog box contains areas where you can enter the needed information. The areas displayed will vary depending on the types of information needed. A dialog box can contain text boxes, list boxes, check boxes, option buttons, and command buttons. See figure 4.4. Figure 4.4 Ć Dialog Boxes, Part 1 A is used to enter text information.
Option buttons let you select options for a command. You can select only one option in a group of option buttons. Check boxes allow you to choose multiple options for a command. Each check box is a separate area in the dialog box. When moving from one area of a dialog box to another, you will notice that the area selected is usually marked by a box enclosed by dotted lines. You can press TAB to move from area to area. SHIFT+TAB moves to areas in reverse order.
4.10 Enlarging a Window You can enlarge a window to fill the entire desktop. If you are using the keyboard: Step 1. Press ALT+ESC to select the window you want to enlarge. Step 2. Press ALT+SPACEBAR to access the Control menu. Step 3. Press X (Maximize). If you are using a mouse, click the Maximize box (up pointing arrow) in the upperĆright corner of the window. See figure 4.6. Figure 4.6 Ć Maximize, Minimize, and Restore Buttons 4.11 Shrinking a Window to an Icon You can shrink a window, i.e.
If you are using a mouse, click the Restore box (doubleĆheaded arrow) in the upperĆright corner to restore a window. Double click an icon to restore it. Application windows and list boxes may have scroll bars if all the information won't fit in the window. If you are using the keyboard, press the DIRECTION key in the direction you want to scroll. You can also use the following keys: Up one screen, press PAGE UP. Down one screen, press PAGE DOWN. Top of a list, press HOME.
You can use the Exit command to close a Windows application. Any changes that have been made in the application will be saved, and you will return to the application you were running prior to the present application. Closing the System Configurator application will return you to DOS unless you have elected, during AutoMax setup, to exit to the Windows Program Manager group. See section 5.5.2 for more information. See figure 4.8. If you are using the keyboard: Step 1.

DoubleĆclicking the right button returns you to the next higher level in the configuration process. 4.17 Using the DOS Command Prompt You must use the Windows Program Manager to access the DOS prompt. The DOS prompt appears as a program item in the Program Manager Main Group. To start the DOS prompt: Step 1. Access the Control menu. Step 2. Select Switch To. The Task List dialog box will be displayed. Step 3. Select Program Manager. The Program Manager will be displayed. Step 4.
The AutoMax Executive software stores the data for AutoMax systems in dBASE IIIĆcompatible database files. There are four databases for each system and five databases for each rack in a given system. Database files are designated by a dollar sign ($) as the first character of the filename and a .DBF extension. Index files (which contain pointers to where in the database information is stored) also have a dollar sign ($) as the first character of the filename, but they are assigned a .
In addition to the files described in section 4.18, the following file types may be created when you use the Programming Executive. The file type is determined by the file extension. AutoMax uses the file extension to determine the particular editor (text editor or PC editor) to be used. When you create a file, the Executive appends one of the following file extensions to designate the file type: .BAS .BLK .CNF .PC .INC .SDC .CDC .RDC .TDC .IDC .DBF .NDX .XRF .LOG .LST .OBJ .POB .
4.21 Text Editor The Norton Editor is part of the AutoMax Executive software, and is the default text editor used to create and edit Control Block and BASIC tasks, BASIC include" files, and documentation files. The text editor is called up automatically whenever the task to be edited is a BASIC or Control Block task. See JĆ3618 for instructions on using the Norton Editor. If you do not want to use the Norton Editor as your text editor, you can designate a different text editor.
number in that range. If there a sequence number in that range, the sequence number will be increased by one. If that is not possible, the system will display an error message. The PC editor screen is a matrix of six rows by ten columns representing the space available for creating one sequence. The available sequence elements and file commands are displayed on the command line of the PC Editor screen. See figure 4.11 for a sample PC editor screen. OFF LINE PC Editor Seq. No.: 5 File: ABCLAD.
Each variable name must be defined as one of two types: local to the task or common to all Processors in the rack. Local variables are those that do not represent a physical I/O point and are not referenced by any other application tasks running in the rack. Common variables are those that represent physical I/O points or are referenced by other tasks in the rack. The PC editor will prompt you to enter L" for local or C" for common. If you enter L", the variable will then be displayed in lowerĆcase.

The unit is 1/10th of a second. Legal values range from 1 to 32767 for timers and +32767 to Ć32768 for counters. See 4.22.4 for more information on Preset Value. Ć Adds a description for a variable name.
function description (M") for errors that may also occur when you include sequences. Note that remark sequence text will not be moved to the current task. TĆ 4.22.3 Allows you to edit element descriptions in the current task using the Norton Editor. This function creates a temporary file with the extension .DTX constructed each time you invoke the function. Variable names in the task are shown on separate lines. Each variable is followed by a > character. Enter your element description after the >.
You will then be prompted for a coil description which begins at the blinking cursor. The description field will show the last coil description entered as the default. F9 Ć Other Operations Five other output operations are described below. They are entered using the F9 key followed by the letter indicated. To enter one of these outputs, the cursor must be in the top row of the matrix allowed for a ladder sequence. 1.
4. S Ć Shift Register Coil The Shift Register has a variable length of up to 16 bits and shifts to the right. Enter the shift register coil name and define it as either local or common. Then enter the coil description. You will then be prompted for LEN" and CN". LEN" specifies the number of bits in the shift register. Legal values range from 1 to 16. The current value name (CN) is the name of the variable that holds the current value of the shift register.

When racks and copies of the systemĆwide information are distributed to various personal computers, all users who have copies of the same files must be aware that only one of the copies can be considered to be read/write. All other copies are to be considered readĆonly. Since the systemĆwide information is used by all racks, it should only be changed when the entire system is present on the hard disk.

Select which of the following groups of files you want to transfer with the system. These files are not necessary since they can be regenerated from the source files.
example, A00) indicates which network is primary (in this example, A). The description, engineer, and customer data for the system and each rack are transferred from the ASD file. Import adds racks using the same process as for importing an AutoMax Version 2 rack. The Import procedure will add as many modules to the rack as possible based on the definition type found for a given slot (see section 5.1.8.1 for information regarding module types).
5.1.8.3 Accessibility of Variables Added by Import Although the Remote I/O hardware which was configured in the configuration task does not get added to the rack, all variables defined for it are added to the rack's database. In the local (master) rack, the variables defined for the corresponding slot will be mapped to a generic module. Remote I/O variables are not accessible to the user until the correct module or rail is actually added to the Remote rack or Head through the Rack Configurator.
and prompt you to delete it. A dialog box will be displayed for each duplicate variable. To fix this error, first write down the variable name and register. Then, click on OK to delete the variable. If you do not delete the offending variables, you will not be able to configure the module.

5.3.9 Importing a Rack from AutoMax Version 1 or Version 2 You can import the configuration information and application tasks for an AutoMax Version 1 or AutoMax Version 2 rack and any Remote I/O racks into AutoMax Executive V3.x. The rack name must not already exist in the selected system. If you want to use tasks created with earlier versions of the AutoMax V3 Executive in a V3.5 environment, see Appendix Q.
5.3.9.2 Generic Modules Note that a generic" module is added to the appropriate slot in the local rack when IODEF statements are found for the slot in the configuration task. The generic module is used because the IODEF statement does not provide enough information to determine the specific type of module used. Note also that for a remote I/O network, no hardware is added to the rack database for the same reason. 5.3.9.
5.3.9.5 Source Drive and Subdirectory for Import It is important that the files to be imported be stored in a specific manner as follows. The only configuration task in the subdirectory should be the configuration task for the rack you want to import. The configuration task does not need to be compiled because the import procedure will compile it.

5.4.3 Loading Operating Systems AutoMax Processor modules and UDC modules require operating systems to be loaded before they can function in the rack. The AutoMax Programming Executive software includes the operating systems for the AutoMax Processors. Operating systems for the Universal Drive Controller (UDC) modules are included only on the separatelyĆpurchased DPS drive software. This software is assumed to be loaded onto the personal computer if it is required.
that all tasks in the rack will be deleted when you load the AutoMax operating system to the Processor(s) in the rack. To ensure that the values of any tunable variables will be maintained in their respective tasks, you should save all application tasks in the rack that contain tunable variables back to the personal computer from the rack (see 14.4) after you have finished tuning variables, and before you load the new operating system.
operating system(s) to be loaded at 19200 baud. If the leftmost Processor in the rack is a M/N 57C430A or M/N 57C431, the operating system(s) will be loaded at 9600 baud. At 9600 baud, it will require approximately two minutes to load each operating system to the Processors in the rack. If there are 6010/6011 and 7010 Processors in the same rack, it will take approximately twice as long as it would if there were only one type of Processor in the rack.
If you are loading an operating system to a Processor or UDC that already contains one, you will be required to enter the rack password before the operating system can be loaded.

5.4.3.2 Loading the AutoMax Operating System to All Drops on One or All Networks The procedure that follows describes how to load the AutoMax operating system to the AutoMax Processors in all racks on a single network or all networks to which the local rack is connected. Step 1. If you have not already done so, turn on the personal computer and run the AutoMax Programming Executive by typing Step 2. Turn on power to the rack. Step 3.
If you entered a network module slot number, you have the same options as above: select (A) to load the operating system to all Processors that do not have an operating system on all drops on the network, or select (O) to overwrite any existing operating systems as well as loading the operating system to the Processors on all drops on the network. If a rack contains only M/N 57C435 (7010) Processors, the 701x operating system will be loaded to all the AutoMax Processors in the rack.
If any UDC modules exist in the destination rack, you will be prompted for which operating systems to erase (AutoMax or UDC). The warning Erase UDC OS before AutoMax OS when erasing all Processors" will be displayed with the prompt. You can choose to erase either the OSs on all Processors in the rack or the OS for a UDC module in the slot you designate. If you want to delete the operating systems for all AutoMax Processors and UDC modules in the rack, you must delete the UDC OSs first. 5.4.

M/N 57C404 Network Module If you are adding a Network module, you will be prompted for a Network" name in addition to the drop number and depth parameters specified in the Network module instruction manual. The Network is a single letter code that serves as the name for the network.
M/N 57C429 RĆNet Network Interface Module If you are adding an RĆNet Interface module, you must enter the node number as a hexadecimal value. (The same hexadecimal number must be physically set on the faceplate on the actual module.) M/N 57C424 MaxPak III Serial Interface Module If you are adding a MaxPak III Serial Interface Module, you must enter the drop number. (The same drop number must be physically set on the faceplate on the actual module.
The following procedure enables you to add a remote I/O network for a Remote I/O Interface module (M/N 57C416). Remote racks (AutoMax or Shark), Remote I/O Heads, Local I/O Heads, Analog Rails, and I/O Rail modules are all configured using this procedure. Step 1. Select the Remote I/O Interface module to which you want to add a remote I/O network. Step 2. Select Zoom In from the GoTo menu. The remote I/O network diagram will be displayed. Step 3.

6.2.3 Configuring a Remote Shark Rack Use the procedure that follows to add an expansion rack and modules to a remote Shark rack. Only one expansion rack can be added to a main Shark rack, regardless of the size of the main rack. The main rack will contain a Shark Remote I/O Interface module in slot 0 (adjacent to the Power Supply). Therefore, a main rack with n" slots will have nĆ1" slots available for I/O modules. All of the slots in the expansion rack can be used for I/O modules.
6.3 Adding a Foreign Module or Other Unsupported Module Any foreign module, i.e., nonĆAutoMax or DCS 5000, must meet strict requirements before it can be used in an AutoMax rack and configured for the rack. See Appendix H for these requirements before attempting to add a foreign module to the rack. Foreign modules and AutoMax modules that are not supported in this version of the Programming Executive software can be added to the rack as generic" I/O modules.
Modifying UDC Module Information Note that UDC modules cannot be changed to another type of module. If the module is added by mistake, it must be removed before another module can be added. If the drive type of the UDC is changed, the PMI hardware and the parameter information will be reset to the default state of the new drive type. 6.6 Removing a Module from a Rack The following procedure enables you to remove a module from the rack.
The backup procedure creates a copy of the rack, module, and variable databases in a subdirectory called AMXWORK on the drive designated for temporary working files during the AutoMax Setup procedure. Note that the AMXWORK subdirectory name is reserved by the Programming Executive. If you select to have the databases backed up and an error occurs during the move, you can use the Repair command to correct the rack configuration. See 6.9 for the Repair procedure. Step 5. 6.
Delete locals with unresolved networkĆwide names Ć deletes Network module variables (the type listed in the Local column in the Variable Configurator for Network modules) that have networkĆwide names that cannot be found in the network database. Copy database backups from work directory Ć copies databases that were stored in the AMXWORK directory during an unsuccessful move back to the currently selected rack's directory. 6.10 Step 3.
lowest hardware level (all other modules), zoom in will access the Variable Configurator described in section 7. To access the Variable Configurator for either the Remote I/O or the Digital Rail modules, use the Configure Variables command, which always accesses the Variable Configurator, regardless of the module selected. The Zoom Out command reverses the process, taking you back to the next higher level.
6.10.3 Selecting a Drive (DPS systems only) If you are configuring a Distributed Power drive system (DPS), the GoTo menu will provide two additional options (Drive A and Drive B) after you have zoomed into a UDC module. The Drive A and Drive B commands can be used to select PMI A or PMI B so that you can you can add analog or digital rails, thumbwheel switches, or LED modules. See the DPS Configuration and Programming instruction manual (SĆ3006, SĆ3015, or SĆ 3016) for detailed information. 6.
7.0 CONFIGURING VARIABLES The Variable Configurator is used to configure I/O points and common memory variables in the rack. The Variable Configurator allows you to map" names to bits and registers on I/O modules and interface modules in the rack, as well as to common memory variables on Processor and Common Memory modules in the rack. Variables are configured using forms" (screens) that are specific to each module.
Configurator. Local variables are defined only in the tasks that use them. Note: Although the following modules themselves can be added to the rack, registers on these modules cannot be configured in the rack: M/N 57C405 M/N 57C408 M/N 57C440 M/N 61C605 M/N 61C613 DCS Drive Analog I/O module DCS Drive Power Module Interface module Ethernet Network Interface module 8ĆChannel Thermocouple Input module 16ĆChannel Analog Input module See 7.1.1 for more information on configuring I/O variables and 7.1.
7.2 Forms Used for Configuring Variables There are three types of forms used to configure variables, a basic form used for I/O and interface modules, a form for common memory variables, and a form used for Network Interface modules. These forms are described in sections 7.2.1 Ć 7.2.3 below. 7.2.1 Basic I/O and Interface Module Configuration Form The basic form is used for I/O modules, interface modules (except the Network Interface; see 7.2.3), and UDC modules.
7.2.3 BATTERYSTATUS0@ Ć True when the onĆboard battery of the Processor module or Common Memory module in slot 0 is OK BATTERYSTATUS1@ Ć BATTERYSTATUS2@ Ć BATTERYSTATUS3@ Ć BATTERYSTATUS4@ Ć """"""""""""1""" """"""""""""2""" """"""""""""3""" """"""""""""4""" Network Interface Module Configuration Form The third type of form in the Variable Configurator is used to configure Network Interface modules (M/N 57C404).
Figure 7.1 Ć Configuring Drop Areas 1Ć55 in Network Interface Modules You can assign two names (and two descriptions) to each register/bit in the Drop Areas 1Ć55 view and the Broadcast Data view: a networkĆwide" name and a local" name. The networkĆwide name for a register/bit is effectively a label that identifies or reserves" the register/bit location across the entire network and can be assigned for all the registers/bits from any Network module on the network.
In order for application tasks in the rack to be able to access the variable in this rack, the register/bit must have a local name in the rack. The local name for a register/bit will be displayed (in the local name" field) only when configuring the Network module that contains the actual drop area where the register/bit is located. The local name will not be displayed in this register/bit location when the Network drop area is viewed through any other Network module on the network.

10.4 Battery BackĆUp The contents of AutoMax Processor RAM (read/write memory) are preserved through power failures by the onĆboard battery backĆup. As long as the LED labeled BAT. OK" on the front of the Processor module is on, the battery is functional and 115 VAC is available to the power supply in the rack. Should the system lose power, the onĆboard battery can supply power to the Processor module for a minimum of 42 days. Note that the battery backup is designed to maintain the contents of RAM only.
10.6 Processor Module Serial Ports There are two RSĆ232 serial ports on the front of each Processor module. They are accessed through DBĆ25 connectors on the faceplate. The upper port, labeled PROGRAMMER/PORT B", is reserved for connection to the personal computer only. When there are multiple Processor modules in a rack, only the leftmost PROGRAMMER/PORT B" slot is reserved.
After the diagnostics are complete, a checksum of a portion of the contents of memory is verified against a checksum which was stored in memory when a loss of AC power was detected. This determines whether the system performs a reĆstart or a coldĆstart when power is turned on. See 10.13 and 10.14 for more information on cold starts and system reĆstarts. 10.9 RunĆTime Diagnostics The Processor module performs realĆtime checking of all data paths on the module by means of a parity test.
AutoMax Processors and UDC modules will be deleted by StopĆAll faults or commands. The effect of a Stop All on data in the rack depends on the data type. Local tunable data in both AutoMax and UDC application tasks is always retained. Local data is retained for AutoMax tasks, but not for UDC tasks. Common memory data, which can be defined in the Variable Configurator for AutoMax Processors only, is maintained when it is configured as nonĆvolatile. Otherwise, it is reset to 0.

The task is stopped and will not go into run again until you put it into run using the RUN command described in 15.1. 2. You stop all tasks in the rack to which you are connected, either directly or over a network, using the STOPĆALL command described in 16.2. All tasks in the rack are stopped and all I/O modules are cleared, i.e., set to 0, false, or off. Application tasks will not go into run again until you put them all into run using the RUNĆALL command described in 15.2.
2. An application configuration check is performed. If the application configuration check determines that an I/O module is missing or not functioning, an error code is displayed. 3. Forced outputs are set to their forced values. WARNING VARIABLES AND OUTPUTS WHICH ARE FORCED BEFORE AC POWER IS LOST WILL REMAIN FORCED WHEN AC POWER IS RESTORED. SHOULD AC POWER BE LOST WHILE VARIABLES ARE FORCED, THE USER MUST ENSURE THAT UNEXPECTED MACHINE MOVEMENT DOES NOT OCCUR WHEN AC POWER IS RESTORED.

The ON LINE! command in the System Configurator and the Task Manager applications allows you to select the ON LINE menu shown in figure 11.1. Options on this menu are used to load, run, stop, monitor, and modify application tasks in the rack and to connect to other racks on the network(s). In addition, this menu provides access to the error log kept for each AutoMax Processor or UDC module running tasks.
11.1 ON LINE Menu Options Online operations are not run in the Windows environment. Selections are made using the keyboard exclusively. You use the first letter of each option (shown in reverse video) instead of function keys to select the option. The default DISK:\LIBRARY\SYSTEM\RACK, i.e., the path, is displayed in the upper rightĆhand corner of the screen. The Enter (Select)" option stands for the ENTER key.

Field C" will show a C if the task has been designated as CRITICAL in the configuration for the rack. CRITICAL tasks are those that cannot be stopped individually, i.e., all tasks must be stopped in order for the task in question to be stopped. An M in field M" indicates that the task has been modified, but has not been saved from the Processor module.
12.0 ON LINE MENU: CONNECT The Connect menu is used to change the baud rate, enter the password, release the password, set or release access, and enable/disable AUTO RUN for the rack. You can also display a list of users. These options are described below. To select the Connect menu, enter C" for at the ON LINE menu shown in figure 11.1. The resulting menu is shown in figure 12.1.
12.2 Setting Access Typing S" for Set Access from the Connect menu shown in figure 12.1 allows you to set various levels of access to the tasks in the rack. If the keyswitch on the rack power supply is in any position other than PROGRAM, setting any level of access has no effect because the keyswitch has already set a lower level of privileged access. See section 9.2 for more information on security access levels.
12.3 Releasing Access Typing R" for Release Access from the Connect menu shown in figure 12.1 allows you to release various levels of access to the rack. If you have either TASK or RACK access, and you select Release Access without first selecting a task, AutoMax will ask you if you want to release your present access level as well as DATA access. If you presently have DATA access, it will be released without a prompt from AutoMax.
If there is any discrepancy between the information in the configuration for the rack and an actual application task, the fault code E" 0" is displayed on the AutoMax Processor and no application tasks are reĆstarted. In a multiple Processor configuration, this check is performed by one Processor only. The particular Processor on which the fault code appears bears no relation to the location of the problem. Tasks are reĆstarted in order of priority from highest to lowest on each Processor module.
12.5 Connecting to a Network or a Local Rack You can communicate with an AutoMax rack by using either an RSĆ232 serial connection to a Processor in the rack or by using a PC Link module (M/N 57C445). You can choose which one of these methods you want to use for communication to AutoMax racks (see section 5.5.3 for instructions).

13.0 ON LINE MENU: INFO/LOG Entering I" for Info/Log from the ON LINE menu allows you to display information about the system software on any AutoMax Processor or UDC module in the rack or to view the status and error log, if any, for a selected task. 13.
The Software ID" depends on the version of the software (operating system) that has been loaded to the AutoMax Processor. (Refer to section 1.4.2 for a list of the software part numbers for versions of the AutoMax Programming Executive.) If the Ethernet version of the operating system is loaded, ENET" will be displayed on the line as well. STD" will be displayed for the standard operating system. Clock Tick" refers to the speed of the realĆtime clock.
The Software ID" depends on the software (operating system) and hardware version of the UDC module. Tick Rate" refers to the speed of the realĆtime clock in the UDC module. The Parameter File Date/Time" will display the most recent date and time that the parameter object file was generated. UDC Utilization" shows the percentage of the UDC CPU's resources being used to run UDC tasks. The UDC Utilization percentage is measured over a two second time window.
The status line for the task displays the slot of the Processor or UDC module on which the task is loaded in the SLOT field. The task name is shown in the NAME field. The task type (.BAS, .BLK, or .PC) is shown in the TYPE field. The priority of AutoMax Processor tasks, assigned when the task is added to the rack, is shown in the PRI field. For UDC tasks, the drive (A or B) the task is assigned to will be shown. The status of the task, either Running, Stopped or in Error, is shown in the STATUS field.

Other Methods of Setting UP Meter Ports PMI meter ports can be set up during DPS parameter entry on on the Monitor Setup UDC/PMI menu. UDC meter ports can be set up via registers 1001-1017 in a UDC application task or on the Monitor Setup UDC/PMI menu. The setup information may be retained after a Stop All or power cycle depending on the method used. See the table below. Table 18.1 - Meter Port Setup Retention UDC Setup via Monitor Menu UDC Setup via Application Task (Reg.
Each UDC entry has a port number (1Ć4), a variable name or register/bit number, and a minimum (Val @ -10V) and maximum (Val @ +10V) value. Val @ -10V" specifies the value of the variable that will be output as the minimum voltage, and Val @ +10V" specifies the value of the variable that will be output as the maximum voltage. This allows a small area of the signal range to be displayed over the full range of the 8Ćbit digitalĆtoĆanalog converter.

20.0 SOFTWARE TROUBLESHOOTING Error messages may be displayed on the screen if there are problems with memory, disks, or databases. This section describes some actions you can take to correct these problems. 20.1 Memory Errors Some errors are caused by insufficient memory. An error message will indicate if this occurs. The Executive software requires 1MB of RAM. When one of these errors occurs, exit the Executive, make more RAM memory available and reĆstart the application.
Errors can be caused by inconsistent, invalid, or missing data and/or index files. An error message will indicate if this occurs. One source of problems with the data and index files is changes made outside the AutoMax Programming Executive software. These changes can be made with DOS (e.g., renaming or deleting files) or using a dBASE (or compatible) software package to write to the file.
20.4 Module/Variable Compatibility Problems If registers defined in an AutoMax V2 module cannot be configured in the current version of the Executive software, or the database is somehow corrupted, an error message will be displayed (invalid/incompatible data type) when you try to configure the module. This error can occur because the current Executive software treats duplicate status registers, e.g. Interrupt Enable," differently than in version 2.

AutoMax DriveĆRelated Error Codes The following error codes indicate a power circuit or external drive system fault. They apply only to systems that incorporate DCS 5000 microĆregulators. After correcting the problem, reset the Processor module by cycling power and reĆloading the configuration task and application tasks to clear the error code. Note that these error codes also appear in the Error Log for the Processor.
EA Error installing application task, common symbol could not be resolved, insufficient memory in Processor Module. I/O referenced in configuration is missing. Eb Error installing application task, common symbol could not be resolved, insufficient memory in Processor Module. I/O referenced in configuration is missing. Invalid configuration, configuration not successfully downloaded.
In AutoMax applications that incorporate multiĆtasking, task execution is determined by eligibility to run. A task's eligibility, in turn, is determined by its priority, scan time, and any links to other tasks built into the task. This appendix describes task execution for AutoMax application tasks. Refer to the appropriate Configuration and Programming instruction manual for a description of the task execution for UDC tasks.
The implications of scan time and priority are particularly important in applications that require tasks to share data or to be synchronized based on hardware or software events. Priority, however, cannot be used to synchronize tasks on different Processors. This is because each Processor controls only the scheduling of the tasks that reside on it. Therefore, the concept of task priority is relevant only for the Processor on which the tasks reside.
The Control Block task starts, and finishes executing 2 ticks later. At this point, the BASIC task is eligible to run (its time 0). When it finishes, the time elapsed from the point of view of the Control Block task is 5 ticks and the higher priority task can then execute again. At 10 ticks, however, both the Control Block and the BASIC task are scheduled to run. Because the Control Block task has a higher priority, it will execute first. The BASIC task will execute immediately afterwards.

Appendix D Limitations on Object File Size This appendix explains application and configuration object file limits for AutoMax Processor modules. Note that there are limits both on the size of tasks that can be compiled and on the size of tasks that can be loaded onto the rack. When BASIC, Control Block, and Configuration files are compiled, the object, symbol, and data size are printed to the screen and totaled. For Control Block tasks, estimated execution time is also printed to the screen.
See section 10.0 for the amount of memory available on each Processor module. In racks with a single Processor, add the total size of all the application tasks and the configuration to determine the amount of memory they will require on the Processor. In racks with multiple Processors, the configuration file will reside on the Common Memory module (M/N 57C413 or M/N 57C423 in slot 0).

Appendix H Using Foreign Modules in an AutoMax Rack A foreign module must meet the following hardware and software requirements before it can be used in a local or remote AutoMax rack. See the AutoMax Power Supply Module and Racks Instruction Manual (J2Ć3008) for more information. Hardware Requirements 1. The foreign module must conform to general IEEE 796 specifications. The AutoMax rack will support foreign modules which meet the following level of IEEE Standard bus compliance: D16M20I16. 2.
9. Each slot has 64K of address space. Foreign modules that have more memory can be addressed in the rack if the proper number of slots to the right of the foreign module are left empty. For example, a foreign module with 128K of memory can be used fully by leaving the slot to the right of the foreign module empty (64K + 64K = 128K total). 10. Foreign I/O modules that drive pins 24 and 26 on the bus cannot be used in the rack. 11.

Step 6. Use the DOS command to delete all the files in the directory. Step 7. Use the DOS command with the /s switch to copy the subdirectories and files from the directory to the directory. Step 8. Use the DOS command to copy the previously saved $SYSTEM.DBF and $SYSTEM1.NDX files back to the directory. Step 9. Return to the Programming Executive software. The new system will be an exact copy of the source system.
Tokens provide a means of writeĆprotecting the databases and tasks for one or more racks or an entire system when using the AutoMax Programming Executive in a network environment. Locking will prevent more than one user at a time from changing the same database information. When more than one copy of a file exists, there is the potential that the various copies will be modified independently.
When an AutoMax system is located on a personal computer which is used by more than one person, or on a network server, unauthorized changes to the system files must be prevented. This is accomplished through the use of token passwords. In other words, in addition to having the token for the file in question, the user must also provide a password before making changes.
The command on the System and Rack menus can be used to change the token password for the system or a selected rack. When the command is executed, the following dialog box will be displayed: The following fields must be entered: User Name: A user name of up to 30 characters. The default is the name entered in the AutoMax Setup. Old Password: The old password. Each character will be echoed as an asterisk (*).
When a token password is changed, the user will be asked to enter his User Name. The default will be the name entered in the AutoMax Setup. When a user enters the wrong password, a message such as the following will be displayed: This assumes that the person who set the password wanted to be identified and entered his name when setting the password.

If a rack is selected: The token status line will display information about the rack token for the selected rack. If the rack token does not exist, the commands MAKE HELD, MAKE NOT HELD, and CLEAR PASSWORD will be disabled. If the rack token does exist and is held, the commands CREATE and MAKE HELD will be disabled. If the token password has not been set, CLEAR PASSWORD will also be disabled.

When another user is working at a lower level than the level you are trying to lock (e.g., editing a task in the rack you are trying to transfer), the AutoMax system must search for the lock file in order to identify the user who is blocking your lock. If the offending lock is removed before it is found, it may not be possible to identify the user.

Appendix P Version Control Library (VCL) The Version Control Library (VCL) provides an interface to the Polytron Version Control System (PVCS) by Intersolv. PVCS is not required to use AutoMax and is not distributed as part of the AutoMax Programming Executive. However, you must have PVCS Version 5.0 (or later) installed on your network (or local) drive in order to use the VCL features in AutoMax Executive V3.4 and later.
The command allows the user to save current versions of system files to the Version Control Library. Snapshot can be performed at the following levels: system, section, rack, or task. It may be used with a single item selected or multiple items selected. The items saved to the VCL in a multiple snapshot can be fetched separately. The same procedure is used to snapshot systems, sections, racks, and tasks.
Error Handling during a Snapshot Operation If an error occurs during the processing of a snapshot operation, an error message will be displayed and the snapshot operation will be aborted. If an error occurs while executing one of the DOS files spawned by the Snapshot command, the user will be returned to Windows and an error message will be displayed. If PVCS fails, the error message will state that PVCS failed and will direct the user to the file PVCS.

Example 1: On Monday, section NET_A was snapshot from the section level at a time when it had only one rack, A00. On Tuesday, another rack, A01, was added to section NET_A and then was snapshot from the rack level. If section NET_A is fetched from the section level using the Latest Version option, section NET_A will contain both racks A00 and A01.
If the check box labeled Fetch all available Tokens is selected (checked), then all the tokens in the Version Control Library within the scope of the fetch operation will be transferred to the AutoMax library. If the user wants to write over any files whose tokens are already in the AutoMax library, he may be required to enter the token password.

Appendix Q AutoMax Version Update Utility AutoMax Executive V3.3 (and later) creates a DPS drive parameter database for each rack when it is added to a system. However, prior to version 3.3, the AutoMax Programming Executive did not create parameter databases. The Version Update utility will add parameter databases to racks created with versions 3.0Ć3.2 of the AutoMax Programming Executive software. The Version Update utility works at the AutoMax library level.

Appendix S What Can Go Wrong When Loading Tasks and Files This appendix describes some problems you might encounter when loading tasks and files to the rack. S.1 Error Messages on the Personal Computer Screen Error messages that appear on the personal computer screen are usually specific enough to help you pinpoint any problems you are experiencing. In most cases error messages are also specific to the operation that was in process when the error occurred.

and the Programming Executive software will automatically load the files in the correct sequence. S.2 Processor or Universal Drive Controller Module LEDs Displaying Errors If the Processor module OK LED is off or the two sevenĆsegment LEDs on the Processor faceplate display a code, see instruction manual JĆ3650, which describes the AutoMax Processor module. If the sevenĆsegment LEDs display LO" (reading top to bottom), this simply means that you need to load the operating system to the Processor.
