Chapter 4 GuardLogix Configuration Create Specific Application Logic Now that you have imported and configured all the machine, application, and device modules, you can begin creating the specific application logic for your machine. You create your application logic within the R10_ApplicationCode routine of the application module. There are two methods for creating specific application logic for your machine.
GuardLogix Configuration Chapter 4 Figure 9 - Run Sequence Template ============================================ BY DEFAULT THE FOLLOWING RUNGS WILL BE ERRORED AND THEREFORE MUST BE ADDRESSED...
Chapter 4 GuardLogix Configuration The run sequence is initiated by a machine START command via the start logic in the R03_Control routine of the application module. By default, the run sequence is initiated by placing a value of 1 in the RunSEQ[0] tag. When the RunSEQ[0] tag is set to 1, the first step in the run sequence is executed, starting the run sequence. Each of the rungs in the run sequence provides a placeholder where you can insert application-specific step logic.
GuardLogix Configuration Chapter 4 Figure 11 - Final Run Sequential Step Example Much like the first run-step example rung, this CNC Work Cell final run step example also includes unlatch (U) instruction, as well as a MOV instruction for assigning a simulation number, used for this example. The RunSeq MOV instruction indexes to the next sequence step, a value of 1 this time, which will repeat the RunSeq steps.
Chapter 4 GuardLogix Configuration Figure 12 - Stop Sequence Template ============================================ STOP SEQUENCE ============================================ NOP 5 6 7 8 e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e SEQUENCE INITIATE This rung is a placeholder where Application specific logic can be inserted. By default, StopSEQ[0] is initially set to 1 following a Machine STOP command (that is, "MachineName".Cmd.STOP).
GuardLogix Configuration Chapter 4 The move (MOV) instruction is a placeholder to advance the stop sequence to the next step by incrementing the StopSEQ[0] tag. Each step in the stop sequence requires a unique value be assigned in ascending order. The steps typically increase by multiples of five or ten. By default, the stop sequence-template steps 1…10…20…30 …999. Before moving to the next step, a predetermined condition must normally be met to make sure the current step is complete.
Chapter 4 GuardLogix Configuration Figure 14 - Final Stop Sequential Step and Sequence Complete Example This CNC Work Cell final stop step and complete logic example includes logic to unlatch (U) the Stopped status, one the gantry has been confirmed to be stopped. Identical to the stop sequence template, the stop sequence complete rung sets the StopSEQ[0] tag value to 999, which indicates the stop sequence is complete.
GuardLogix Configuration Chapter 4 CNC Work Cell Logic Example Overview To assist you in understanding how to best use the logic examples, the CNC Work Cell application is used as an example. We recommend you study the CNC Work Cell gantry and machining applications to see the interaction of the machine, application, and device modules within the application logic. The CNC Work Cell examples are created by using basic CNC application examples included in the toolkit.

Appendix A Logic Program Overview The CNC Machining Accelerator Toolkit DVD, publication IASIMP-SP018, was developed around a modular concept. Modularity lets you decide which components to incorporate into your machine, providing greater flexibility and a custom fit. The preconfigured logic is specifically designed around this modular concept and consists of three main logic modules.
Appendix A Logic Program Overview Machine/Application/Device Module Relationship The machine module monitors the current state of the overall machine and based on the state and/or requests from the HMI terminal, broadcasts commands to both the application and device modules. The individual modules perform a predefined task based on the command. Some of the commands may be ignored depending on the module type.
Logic Program Overview Each of the modules are defined as individual programs in the Logix Project. Each program contains all of the necessary logic to interact with the other configured modules. This interface between each of the modules is accomplished via the monitor and control routines in each of the programs. The machine commands and corresponding module status is routed through the monitor and control routines. This lets the modules operate independently in a modular structure.
Appendix A Logic Program Overview Table 13 - Module Routine Overview Logic Module Type Machine Application Routine Function R00_Main Dispatch routine, calls all of the other routines in the program. R01_PowerUp Initializes parameters following powerup or controller first scan. R02_Monitor • Summarizes the status from all of the dependent modules (for example, application and device modules). • Detects Abort and/or Stop conditions. • Provides machine status information to HMI terminal.
Logic Program Overview Appendix A Table 13 - Module Routine Overview (Continued) Logic Module Type Routine Function R00_Main Dispatch routine, calls all of the other routines in the program. R01_PowerUP Initializes parameters following powerup or controller first scan. R02_Monitor • Summarizes the status for the device module (for example, OK, Ready, Reset). • Detects module faults (for example, Failed to RESET, Failed to CLEAR, Module Not Ready).
Appendix A Logic Program Overview Machine Module The machine module contains the high level control for the entire machine. The machine module was built around a simple state machine that you can customize to fit most applications. The machine module broadcasts out commands and receives feedback information from each of the application and device modules. Based on the feedback information, the machine will react accordingly.
Logic Program Overview Appendix A You can fully customize the state machine, letting you change the relationship between states and the state names, and add or remove states if needed. Refer to Appendix B for information on how to customize the state machine. Table 14 - Default Machine States Machine State State Type Description ABORTING Transitional Broadcasts the ABORT command until confirmation that all of the application and device modules are aborted.
Appendix A Logic Program Overview Machine Control Module Tags The machine control data type, UDT_MachCtrl, comprises the overall machine control and status, including the state machine. The user-defined data type consists of these components. Machine Mode Machine Commands Current Machine State Previous Machine State Machine State Display Machine Status Table 16 - Machine Tags Tag Group Function Machine mode Additional modes can be added to the machine.
Logic Program Overview Appendix A Device and Application Status Rung Tags and Logic The device and application status rungs provide feedback information to the machine module and consists of these components. Figure 35 - Device Module Status Figure 36 - Application Module Status The status bits are set in the monitor routine of the corresponding modules. These status bits are vital to the machine module, as they are used to determine the overall status of the machine.
Appendix A Logic Program Overview For the CNC Work Cell application example, the rungs are found in the R02_Monitor routine of the P01_CNC_Work_Cell machine program.
Logic Program Overview Appendix A Figure 37 - CNC_Work_Cell Device and Application Status Rung Example (continued) Rockwell Automation Publication IASIMP-QS034A-EN-P - October 2012 239
Appendix A Logic Program Overview Application Modules The application modules contain all of the application specific code. This is where a majority of the customizing occurs and is essentially a programming space where you spend a significant portion of your efforts to develop proprietary logic specific to your application. In this example, application code is shown for the CNC Work Cell Machining application.
Logic Program Overview Appendix A Device Modules Device modules contain all of the logic to control the essential functions required by the device. For example, an integrated motion servo drive like the Kinetix 6500 requires logic (MSO/MSF instructions) to enable and/or disable the servo drive. This logic reduces the programming effort required by most applications providing more time for the proprietary logic needed for the application.
Appendix A Logic Program Overview Device Module Control Logic Example In this example, the R03_Control routine for a FANUC CNC device module initiates and/or clears the reset and abort sequences. The routine also attempts to clear any active faults. Refer to the toolkit directory C:\Program Files\RA_Simplification\CMAT\A-Files\6-Project Examples\CNC-Work-Cell folder for a complete example of a logic program.
Appendix B Logic Module Customization The toolkit logic modules are designed with a basic set of machine states, faults, alarms, and reset logic common to most applications. Knowing that specific application requirements dictate exceptions and additions, the ability to customize is also included in the logic module design. This appendix includes common modification recommendations for the customization of machine states, faults, alarms, and reset logic.
Appendix B Logic Module Customization The application and device modules interact with the state machine via their R02_Monitor and R03_Control routines. For example, the device modules accept commands and react accordingly. Therefore, changes to the state machine can impact the individual application and device modules. Refer to Appendix A for more information on the state machine and how it interacts with the application and device modules.
Logic Module Customization Appendix B Modifications to the state, command, or mode need to be made to the corresponding data types. For example, to modify the state names, open and edit the UDT_MachState data type.
Appendix B Logic Module Customization Tag and Logic Modification Recommendations This table contains some of the common modifications to consider for the state machine. The modifications and corresponding recommended actions are meant to highlight the more significant updates that are needed. Additional updates may also be necessary. Modification Description Recommended Actions State Names Simple change to the state name. The number of states and relationship between states remain unaltered.
Logic Module Customization Appendix B State Display Tag Modifications Each instance of any MachineSTATE_Add-On Instruction instruction contains an embedded string tag that sets the Machine.StateDisplay tag following a state change. The Machine.StateDisplay tag is referenced by the HMI to display the current or active machine state. In this example, you modify the embedded string tag. 1. Right-click the Add-On Instruction tag name and choose Open Instruction Logic. 2.
Appendix B Logic Module Customization 3. Use the String Browser to modify or set the State_Name. The new state name must match the updated state set by the MachineSTATE_Add-On Instruction instruction. For example, if the MachineSTATE_Add-On Instruction instruction places the machine into the Machine.State.PRODUCING state, then the corresponding State_Name tag must be set to PRODUCING. Each instance of any MachineSTATE_Add-On Instruction needs to be set or updated based on changes to the machine states.
Logic Module Customization Appendix B Module Fault Customization The application and device module R02_Monitor routines contain module fault logic. Module faults are intended to act as a diagnostic tool to cover not only a drive or device fault, but also module specific faults. You can add custom module fault logic to provide additional diagnostic information based on your application. The default module specific faults are listed below.
Appendix B Logic Module Customization All of the device modules also contain a general drive fault. The drive fault is in addition to the drive specific faults. For example, when a CIP Motion drive faults for an Excessive Position Error, both the drive specific fault (Excessive Position Error) and general fault (Drive Fault) are displayed on the HMI alarm history faceplate.
Logic Module Customization Appendix B In addition to adding the logic for the new module faults, the alarm message within the HMI application needs to be entered for the associated trigger value.
Appendix B Logic Module Customization Alarm History Faceplate Logic Modification The alarm history rungs in the application and device module R02_Monitor routines support the HMI alarm history faceplate. If your HMI application does not include the alarm history faceplate, then you can remove this logic from the monitor routine for each module. You can locate the alarm history faceplate logic rungs just below the alarm history header, in the rung comments.
Logic Module Customization Appendix B Coordinated Reset Customization By default, each device module is pre-programmed with reset logic that is designed to prepare the module and the devices it contains (drives, for example) to run. For a sercos or CIP Motion axis, this might mean the reset logic will home the axis. This approach is well suited for applications where the individual device modules reset independently.
