2The PMC-2 in an overview
The PMC-2 digital positioning motor controller is the cost optimal and complete solution in future-
oriented technology for your positioning and synchro tasks.
2.1 Introduction
Until now a servo positioning has been realized by means of a positioning control and a separate
motor controller.
Now there is the PMC-2, where you will find these two components integrated in one single unit.
The advantages of this conception are as follows:
- no difficulties in adapting positioning control <-> motor controller
- deep system view until down to the motor current via system variables
- one software for positioning and synchro procedures
- one interface for setting parameters and programming of both components
- highly flexible process language

diagnosis cases. German, English, French, Italian and Spanish texts facilitate the dialogue with the
PMC-2.
Access protection
The conception of the PMC-2 includes an access protection mechanism. Parameters and variables
are divided in several access authorisation levels for writing and reading.

2.5.4 Variable and parameter menu
After the input of a parameter (Pxxx), the BE-7 will ask you, if you want the modified parameter
record to be transferred to the PMC-2.
A transferred parameter record will only be accepted into the working memory with a positive edge
(LOW -> HIGH) on input "Enable".
All other inputs will be accepted right away.
If an arrow key is pressed longer than 1 second, the auto repeat function will be activated.

CAUTION If the BE-8 is served by the COM2 interface pin 14 and pin 15, the cables
should have a minimum diameter of 0.25 mm2.
Note:
The screen is unilaterally linked to the control by the plug casing.
CAUTION The BE-8 should be connected to the PMC-2 only in tension-free state.
To activate the BE-8, the parameter P0.21 COM2_application or P0.26 COM1_application must be
set to BE-8.
Note:
•Changes in the parameter P0.21 (or P0.26) are not taken over until after RESET at the PMC-2.
•If BE-8 was selected in the parameter P0.21 (or P0.26), also the PMC-2 expects that a BE-8 is
connected. Otherwise the warning E587 ”BE-Timeout” is triggered.
•If you still get no display in the BE-8, you have probably not yet defined any variables (parameter
group 6 -> see 2.6.3 Variable menu).

2.6.3 Variable menu
20 V variables (V0 to V19) can be edited with EPAS-3. Display text, lower limit, upper limit and format
are set in parameter group 6.
•The variables must be inputted in a row with no gap, because all following variables after format
0.0 are ignored.
•If the input is to be blocked, the lower limit must be higher than the upper limit.
•Variables are not taken over until format contains a number > 0.0.
•If a variable is inserted or deleted, it is not taken over until after RESET at the PMC-2.
•If the display text, a limit or the format of an existing variable is changed, this is taken over after
enable LOW -> HIGH (standard parameter takeover).

2.7 Programming
EPAS-3 is responsible for the programming of the PMC-2.
Tailor-made installations are realised with the ECL-ELAU Control Language, which has been
successfully used many times in the positioning controls SX-1, SX-2, and SX-3.
ECL-3, for the product family PMC-2, gives the user a powerful tool due to its multitasking
capabilities. The compiled ECL-3 program is activated by the ECL runtime system. Up to 8 parallel
ECL program parts can be executed at the same time.
For example, one ECL program part takes care of the positioning jobs, whereas a second part
concentrates on monitoring functions. Due to the fact that the ECL program is filed in machine code
of the micro processor, a high processing speed can be achieved.
The division in single instructions and half textual language elements facilitate the structure of easy-
to-survey and easily readable programs.
The ECL-3 offers a comprehensive range of commands:
- program organisation commands
- relative and absolute positioning commands
- synchro positionings (electrical gear, disk cam)
- label positionings
- variable transfer commands
- time commands
- logic and arithmetic commands
The program is created with a menu-guided programming surface on an IBM compatible PC with
EPAS-3.
Performance features of EPAS-3:
-pull down menus according to SAA standard
- mouse or keyboard operation
- ECL-3 editor with syntax check
- parameter editor
- variable editor
- filing
- printing
- window system

3Safety
3.1 Symbol and note explanations
Safety symbol
You will find this symbol with all safety instructions in this
instruction manual which could be a danger to life and limb of
persons. Therefore observe these notes thoroughly and act
extremely carefully in those cases. Please pass these safety
instructions also to other users.
Caution notes You will find this "Caution" signal in this instruction manual where
you should comply with the directions, instructions, notes and the
right course of works as well as where you should avoid a damage
or destruction of the equipment.
3.2 Safety information
for electrical equipment of machines for the machine manufacturer.
The machine manufacturer has to undertake a danger, error and risk analysis on the specific
conditions of his machine and - with consideration to the effective safety instructions - to watch the
corresponding safety installations and measures.
The safety is guaranteed, if uncontrolled movements can be avoided from the standstill and during
controlled move of the drive.
The safety arrangements have to be done in a way that no dangerous status could arise in case of an
error.
What the safety for persons is concerned this can be achieved, if it is made sure that no person can
enter or catch hold of the danger area of the station during its operation (passive protection with
access locks, safety fences,...).
The following rules, directions, and instructions are to be observed:
•VDE-0113 part 1
•EN 292 part 1 and part 2
•universally valid regulations for prevention of accidents
•Initial operation must not begin until it has been proven that the machine where the products are
built in complies with the EU directive 89/336/EEC (machine directive).
•Operation is allowed only if national rules on electromagnetic tolerance for the respective
application are adhered to. In the EU the valid directive is 89/336/EEC.
•DIN EN 50178 on equipment of high-voltage systems with electronic operating means
