Features Description
The Model 1100 Smart Operator Interface allows you to quickly and easily set up and operate
many types of industrial controllers. The Model 1100 provides overall control and a user
interface for most types of controllers or computers that need an easy-to-use, intelligent
operator interface. Stepping and servo motor controllers, PLC's, and process controllers are
a perfect match for the Model 1100. With a Model 1100, an operator can view and change
machine parameters, or follow instructions to perform operations. Users no longer have to
fumble about with clumsy switches, thumbwheels, and indicator lights. Instead, a back-lit,
8-line by 40-character "super-twist" LCD display, and a large full-travel, 30-key waterproof
keypad prompts and "listens" to the operator through machine operations.
Operators can be given as little or as much help required by programming the FF—LP key
function with programmable help instructions. The Model 1100's LCD screen ca_ display
TEXT or GRAPHICS so block diagrams, flow charts, wiring diagrams, and statistical
information can be displayed for the operator. For machine control, the Model 1100 provides
24 lines of parallel I/O, two serial ports (either RS-232C, RS-422, or RS-485), 8 timers, and

bit A/D, up to 4 12-bit D/A, up to 120 lines of I/O and up to 4 high-speed quadrature counters
can be added. All I/O is optically isolated and designed to be extremely noise tolerant.
Included with the Model 1100 is a disk containing the ApplicationBuiiderTM, a PC DOS
program that allows you to quickly generate programs for the Model 1100. The
ApplicationBuilderTM generates BASIC programs from simple menu selections and direct
screen entry of text. It consists of three components:
•The Builder converts menu selections and direct screen text entry into BASIC code
•The Editor performs text editing of BASIC or other ASCII files
•The Terminal Emulator performs like a "dumb" terminal to talk to the Model 1100.
Functional Description
The Model 1100 is housed in a rugged cast housing that is meant to be flush-mounted in an
equipment panel. A full gasket and a rigid mounting system form a water tight seal about the
opening. The display is sealed and the keypad is constructed of a water tight silicone rubber.
The keypad on the front of the Model 1100 is organized into three color coded groups.
•WHITE - NUMERIC ENTRY
•BLUE - ACTION- CURSOR, ENTER, INSERT, DELETE, HELP
•YELLOW - FUNCTION KEYS
The 8-line by 40-character LCD display serves as a display port, programming tool, and soft key label.
In Edit Mode, the display can be used to scroll through text, make changes, or debug programs. In Run
Mode text, soft key titles, and graphics can be displayed under program coned.
The rear of the Model 1100 incorporates the entire connector system for parallel, serial, and
printer I/O. Half of the rear panel is reserved for options. The figure below diagrams the
internal components of the Model 1100. The heart of the unit is a high speed 64180, 8-bit high
anon CPU chip. The CPU communicates with UARTS (serial ports), ROM, RAM,
TIMERS, I/O, and the option connector. Battery backed-up RAM stores programs and
variables even if power is removed. It can hold a program for more than 5 years without power
applied. The opto-isolation circuitry is designed to provide a harrier between the outside world
(I/O ports) and the CPU. This eliminates CPU errors in high noise environments. The serial
ports, parallel I/O ports, and printer port have their own power supply to further insure that
noise does not disrupt the CPU's operation.

LI1is a CMOS receiver that constantly monitors the status of the I/O line. Its input is current
limited by R2 and pulled up by Rl. A current limit (R2) is needed to allow the I/O pin to exceed
the supply voltage of Ul without damage. The pull-up (R1) is afairly high value (22K ). Any
voltage from 5 to 30VDC can be connected to the pin without damage to the pull-up resistor.
Ul senses alogic high (1) on the I/O pin at 3.2V and a logic low (0) on the I/O pin at I.4V
regardless of the externally applied pull-up voltage.

U2 is an open collector output driver that can withstand 30 V and 30 MA load. When a BASIC
program writes a 1 to the output port, U2 is off, allowing the pull-up resistor (R1) or the user's
externally connected pull-up to pull the VO line high. In this condition, it is possible for an
external device (like a switch) to pull the line low thereby allowing the input Ul to sense a logic
low. When a BASIC program writes a 0 to the output port, the output transistor in U2 turns
on, thereby driving the VO line low. When the Model 1100 powers up, all LO lit= are driven
to a 1, thereby allowing the I/O pins to operate as inputs.
Use the OUT and INP commands to program the 24 bit I/O port (refer to Chapter CD).

Getting Started
The ApplicationB Wider MI generates BASIC programs from simple menu selections and direct
screen text entry. Integrated into all ApplicationBuilderTM functions is an UPLOAD/
DOWNLOAD capability and a comprehensive, context sensitive HELP system. Running the
ApplicationBuildertM is simple and requires no special software skills.
First, you must connect the Model 1100 to your PC. Connect one end of the supplied
NULL MODEM cable to COM2 on the Model 1100 and the other end to an available
serial port on your PC (either COM1 or COM2).
Model 1100 Rear Panel
Note which serial port on the PC that you have connected to (for information on the serial
ports for your PC refer to your PC's instruction manual).
2The ApplicationBuilderTM is provided on two 5 1/4' diskettes or one 3 1/2" diskette. Make
back-up copies of your diskettes before attempting to use them. Use the back-up copies
to run the program. Save the original ApplicationBuilderTm diskettes in a safe place.

The ApplicationBuilderTM will start up for the first time in LCD mode (the simplest display
mode). If your computer has a color monitor, selecting the SETTINGS menu by pressing
Alt + S, and choose the COLOR selection by moving the cursor to the COLOR text.
Press Enter. This will display ApplicationBuilderTM screens in color. The change will be
recorded to a configuration file on disk, so subsequent program operation will be in color.
el) To select the COM port on your PC that is connected to the Model 1100, press Aft S to
pull down the SETTINGS menu. Choose either COM 1 or COM 2 depending upon
whir.), port the null modem cable is connected to on your PC. Perform the selection in
the same manner described above. Again, the settings will automatically be saved for
you when you exit the ApplicationBuilderTM program. Press Esc to close SETTINGS
menu.
The figure below shows the layout of the BUILD screen. It consists of four basic components.
At the top there is the MENU BAR. This is where the pull-down menus for operating the
ApplicationBuilderTM originate. In the center is the PSEUDOCODE GENERATION area.
This is where English language program statements (called PSEUDOCODE) are placed and
edited. In the lower left is the SIMULATION of the Model 1100's screen. This represents the
8-line by 40-character LCD screen on the Model 1100. The lower right contains descriptions
for the function keys. These keys generate the PSEUDOCODE.

ApplicationBuilderTM Example
To demonstrate the power of the ApplicationBuilderTM, a simple example program will be read
from disk, viewed, converted to BASIC, downloaded, and run. Run the ApplicationBuilder
program (described in Gazing Started) and complete the following steps.

Select the FILE menu (Aft + F) and OPEN (move the cursor or type 0) and press Enter.
You will see a window appear that contains a listing of the demonstration builder files on
the ApplicationBuilder diskette. Move the highlight to EASY.BLD and press Enter. The
PSEUDOCODE for EASY.BLD will appear on the screen. Scroll up and down through
the PSEUDOCODE with the cursor keys. The PSEUDOCODE for EASY.BLD is below:

Observe the first two lines and the last line of the PSEUDOCODE. These BUILDER
automatically inserts these three lines. These lines cannot be deleted, edited. or moved.
They are essential for the BUILDER's operation. Each line begins with a dash (-) or a •>
sequence. These tell the BUILDER that the fine is PSEUDOCODE, and what to do with
/. A line starting wrth "> is a new screen. A line starting with a dash is PSEUDOCODE
that will execute for that screen. Don't worry about generating these special symbols, the
BUILDER does that for you.
Next, move the cursor (blinking block) over the ").SCREEN begin" PSEUDOCODE.
Notice that the simulation of tne Model 1100's SCREEN contains text. This text will be
placed on the Model 1100 screen when BASIC is generated and the program is run on
the Model 1100.

Notice that the number of basic lines generated are displayed on screen during this
process. You will be asked if you want to load the BASIC program into the EDITOR—
answer YES. You will be asked if you want to save EASY.BLD, answer NO, since you
did not change anything (or mean to change anything!).
The BASIC program generated by EASY.BLD is now loaded into the EDITOR. The
EDITOR has the normal attributes of a text editor. CUT/PASTE/INSERT/etc. After
examining the BASIC code generated, download it into the Model 1100.
ZPress ALT-T and select Download Disk File (by selecting it or typing D). Select
EASY.BAS and press Enter. This begins the download process from the PC to the
Model 1100. While data is transferred between the PC and the Model 1100, a counter
will show the number of bytes being transferred. When the process is complete, the
Program has been downloaded. Press Fl (RUN) on the Model 1100. You should see
the screens and softkeys that were present on the SIMULATION OF THE MODEL
1100'S SCREEN on the PC. Once you have successfully downloaded and run
EASY.BLD, try loading, examining, and compiling other programs on the Application-
BuilderTM diskette(s). Some programs are only available in BASIC form. They may be
loaded with the AppiicationBuilderTM even though their corresponding BUILDER file is
not present.
