A Universal Control Module 10 is adaptable to the operating characteristics of any of the conventional electrical drive devices employed in electrical operating systems. The UCM 10 includes a microprocessor and memory, by virtue of which it becomes tailored to the characteristics of a given device 32 to be controlled upon plug-in of the UCM into a bussed rack associated with a Communication Module 26 preprogrammed with the set values for the drive. A basic control system includes corresponding Electrical Interface Modules 30 and their associated Communication Module 36 interconnected via a serial data communication link 38 extending between the respective Communication Modules for the UCMs and EIMs. As an option, an associated UCM and EIM can be directly connected via parallel leads 40 for direct control of a drive unit. Where appropriate, the basic system is incorporated with a plurality of other basic systems in a second level control system, accessed by a Programmable Logic Module 120. In turn, for large extended systems, such as may be utilized in a manufacturing plant, the second level system may be incorporated with a plurality of other second level systems, all intercommunicating via a data highway 112 and being accessed through a Supervisory Control Station 110. |
