General information

1 General information
This RESISTRON® temperature controller is manufactured according to EN 61010-1. In the course of its manu-
facture it passed through quality assurance, whereby it was subjected to extensive inspections and tests. As a
result of this, the product left our factory in perfect condition.
Please carefully read through the operating manual before using the RESISTRON® temperature controller. Keep
the operating manual for later reference and make sure that information and functions important for the user are
available.
The recommendations and warning notes contained in these operating instructions must be complied with, in
order to guarantee safe operation.
The device can be operated within the limits indicated in the "Technical Data" without impairing its operational
safety. Installation and maintenance may only be performed by technically trained, skilled persons who are familiar
with the associated risks and warranty provisions.

1.1 Copyright

All contents, in particular texts, photographs and graphics, are protected by copyright. All rights, including to rep-
lication, publication, editing and translation, are reserved.

1.2 Intended use

RESISTRON® temperature controllers may only be used for heating and temperature control of heatsealing bands
which are expressly approved for them, and providing the regulations, notes and warnings contained in these
instructions are observed.
In case of non-observance or use contrary to the intended purpose, there is a risk that safety will be impaired or
that the heatsealing band, electrical wiring, transformer etc. will overheat. This is the personal responsibility of the
user.

1.3 Heatsealing band

The use of suitable heatsealing bands is a basic prerequisite for reliable and safe operation of the system.
The resistance of the heatsealing band which is used must have a positive minimum temperature coefficient in
order to guarantee trouble-free operation of the RESISTRON® temperature controller.
The temperature coefficient must be specified as follows:
–4 –1 –1
TCR = 10x10 K or K or ppm/K
e.g. Alloy A20: TCR = 1100 ppm/K
LEX3500: TCR = 3500 ppm/K
Vacodil: TCR = 1100 ppm/K
The RESISTRON® temperature controller must be set and coded according to the temperature coefficient of the
heatsealing band.
The temperature coefficient must be taken from the ROPEX application report and must be set accordingly.

The use of incorrect alloys with a too low temperature coefficient and incorrect coding of the
! RESISTRON® temperature controller leads to uncontrolled heating of the heatsealing band, which
will ultimately burn out!

The original heatsealing bands must be clearly identified by means of suitable markings as well as the connector
geometry, length, or other means to ensure that replacement bands are identical.

Version 1 RES-409 Page 3

 General information

1.4 Impulse transformer

A suitable impulse transformer is necessary in order to guarantee trouble-free operation of the control loop. This
transformer must be designed according to EN 61558 or UL 5058 (isolating transformer with reinforced insulation)
and have a one section bobbin. When the impulse transformer is installed, suitable touch protection must be
provided in accordance with the national installation regulations for electrical equipment. In addition to this, water,
cleaning solutions and conductive fluids must be prevented from seeping into the transformer.
Incorrect installation of the impulse transformer impairs electrical safety.

1.5 Current transformer PEX-W4/-W5

The current transformer supplied with the RESISTRON® temperature controller is an integral part of the control
system.
Only the original ROPEX PEX-W4 or PEX-W5 current transformer may be used. Other transformers may cause
the equipment to malfunction.
The current transformer may only be operated if it is correctly connected to the RESISTRON® temperature
controller (see section "Startup and operation"). The relevant safety instructions contained in section "Power
supply", must be observed. External monitoring modules can be used in order to additionally increase operating
safety. They are not included in the scope of supply of the standard control system and are described in a separate
document.

1.6 Line filter

ROPEX provides line filters in different power classes. The ROPEX application report lists the suitable line filter
which can be ordered accordingly.
The use of an original ROPEX line filter is mandatory in order to comply with the directives mentioned in section
"DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY" on page 6. This device must be installed and connected according to the
instructions contained in section "Power supply" as well as the separate documentation enclosed with the line
filter.

1.7 Maintenance

The controller requires no special maintenance. Regular inspection and / or tightening of the terminals – including
the terminals for the winding connections on the impulse transformer – is recommended. Dust deposits on the con-
troller can be removed with dry compressed air.

Dust deposits and dirt from liquids result in a loss of function. Accordingly, installation in a switch
! cabinet or terminal cabined with IP54 is recommended.

1.8 Transportation

2014/30/EU electromagnetic compatibility directive

2011/65/EU RoHS directive

Note:

This declaration of conformity certifies that the device/electronic itself complies with the above-mentioned direc-
tives. The CE mark on the device/electronic does not relieve the machinery manufacturer of his duty to verify the
conformity of the completely installed, wired and operationally ready system in the machine with the EMC directive.

Comments:

RESISTRON/CIRUS temperature controllers are not independently operable devices. They are used by the
machinery manufacturer to form a sealing system by adding EMC-relevant components such as filters, transfor-
mers, heatsealing bands and wiring. The final configuration may vary significantly in terms of performance and
physical dimensions. All information provided by us in connection with the line filter is merely intended as a guide
and is based on a typical measuring setup. It serves to demonstrate that compliance with the EMC directive can
be achieved by using a line filter that is suitable for the overall system. The line filter and current transformer must,
however, be determined on the basis of the respective application. We also wish to point out that the transformer
which is used must be designed in accordance with VDE 0551/EN 61558 or UL 5058 for safety reasons.

Application

2 Application
This RESISTRON® temperature controller is an integral part of the "Series 400", the outstanding feature of which
is its microprocessor technology. All RESISTRON temperature controllers are used to control the temperature of
heating elements (heatsealing bands, beaded bands, cutting wires, heatsealing blades, solder elements etc.), as
required in a variety of heatsealing processes.
The controller is most commonly used for impulse-heatsealing PE films in:
• Vertical and horizontal f/f/s machines
• Pouch, filling and sealing machines
• Film wrapping machines
• Pouch-making machines
• Group packaging machines
• etc.
The use of RESISTRON temperature controllers results in:
• Repeatable quality of the heatseals under any conditions
• Increased machine capacity
• Extended life of the heatsealing bands and teflon coatings
• Simple operation and control of the sealing process

3 Principle of operation
The resistance of the heatsealing band, which is temperature-sensitive, is monitored 50x per second (60x at 60Hz)
by measuring the current and voltage. The temperature calculated with the help of these measurements is
displayed and compared with the set point.
The primary voltage of the impulse transformer is adjusted by phase-angle control, if the measured values deviate
from the set point. The resulting change in the current through the heatsealing band leads to a change in the band
temperature and thus also its resistance. This change is measured and evaluated by the RESISTRON®
temperature controller.
The control loop is closed: ACTUAL temperature = SET temperature. Even minute thermal loads on the
heatsealing band are detected and can be corrected quickly and precisely.
A highly high response thermo-electric control loop is formed which is highly accurate because purely electrical
variables are measured at a high sampling rate. A high secondary current can be controlled because power is
controlled on the primary side of the transformer. This allows optimum adaptation to the load and to the required
dynamic range despite the exceptionally compact dimensions of the controller.

PLEASE NOTE!

RESISTRON temperature controllers play a significant role in enhancing the performance of modern machines.
However, the full benefit can only be obtained from the advanced technology offered by this control system if all

4 Description of the controller

The microprocessor technology endows the RESISTRON® temperature controller RES-409 with previously
unattainable capabilities:
• Very simple operation thanks to AUTOCAL, the automatic zero calibration function.
• Good dynamic response of the control system thanks to AUTOTUNE, which adapts automatically to the
controlled system.
• High precision thanks to further improved control accuracy and linearization of the heatsealing band
characteristic.
• High flexibility: The AUTORANGE function (as of February 2006) covers a secondary voltage range from 0.4V
to 120V and a current range from 30A to 500A.
• Automatic adjustment to the line frequency in the range from 47Hz to 63Hz.
• Increased protection against dangerous conditions, such as overheating of the heatsealing band.
The RESISTRON® temperature controller RES-409 is equipped with a CAN-Bus interface type CAN 2.0A
according ISO 11898 (Remark: CANopen is not supported). This interface can be used to control all the controller
functions and interrogate controller information.
The ACTUAL temperature of the heatsealing band is supplied to the CAN-Bus interface and to an analog
0 to 10VDC output. The real heatsealing band temperature can thus be displayed on an external temperature
meter (e.g. ATR-x).
The RES-409 features an integrated fault diagnosis function, which tests both the external system (heatsealing
band, wiring etc.) and the internal electronics and outputs a selective error message in case of a fault.
To increase operational safety and interference immunity, all CAN-Bus signals are electrically isolated from the
controller and the heating circuit.

Page 8 RES-409 Version 1

Accessories and modifications

Either coding switches on the temperature controller itself or the CAN-Bus interface can be used to adapt to
different heatsealing band alloys (Alloy A20, LEX3500 etc.) and set to the required temperature range (0…300°C,
0…500°C etc.).
The compact design of the RESISTRON® temperature controller RES-409 and the plug-in connections make this
controller easy to install.

8.4 Line filter

To comply with EMC directives – corresponding to EN 50081-1 and EN 50082-2 – RESISTRON control loops
must be operated with line filters.
These filters damp the reaction of the phase-angle control on the line and protect the controller against line distur-
bances.

The use of a suitable line filter is part of the standards conformity and a prerequisite of the CE mark.
!
ROPEX line filters are specially optimized for use in RESISTRON control loops. Providing that they are installed
and wired correctly, they guarantee compliance with the EMC limit values.
You can find the exact specification of the line filter in the ROPEX Application Report calculated for your particular
heatsealing application.
For more technical information:  "Line filter" documentation.
It is permissible to supply several RESISTRON control loops with a single line filter, providing the total current does
not exceed the maximum current of the filter.
The wiring instructions contained in section 8.3 "Power supply" on page 17 must be observed.

All controllers manufactured as of February 2007:

! The settings with the rotary coding switch are considered to be the factory setting. This
corresponds to CAN message address 8, value 10 (dec) ( section 10.3 "Receiving CAN messages" on

50kBaud ON OFF OFF OFF

20kBaud ON OFF OFF ON

The "AutoBaud" function (automatic baud rate detection) only works if the RES-409 controller is installed in a CAN
network in which valid CAN messages are exchanged by at least two nodes. If the controller has already
successfully "listened in" on a maximum of 8 CAN messages since being started up, it should by now have
identified the correct baud rate and be capable of participating in the bus traffic. Until the correct baud rate is
detected, the controller only plays a passive role on the CAN bus and has no influence on communications.

The "NETWORK STATUS" LED (red) and the "MODULE STATUS" LED (green) blink (alternately) as
! long as the "AutoBaud" function is active.

If the baud rate for the CAN network is changed while the controller is operating, it must be switched
! off and then on again in order to reactivate the "AutoBaud" function.

9.2.6 DIP switches for setting the identifiers

A new DIP switch setting does not take effect until the next time the controller is switched on.
!
All controllers manufactured as of February 2007:
The 8-pole DIP switch determines the 8 high bits of the 11-bit long standard CAN identifier. The 3 low bits are
fixed. Since the identifier 0 must not be used, a maximum of 253 different controllers can be addressed in a CAN
network.
The least significant identifier bit has a fixed value of 0 for receiving CAN messages:

DIP.8 DIP.7 DIP.6 DIP.5 DIP.4 DIP.3 DIP.2 DIP.1

ID.10 ID.9 ID.8 ID.7 ID.6 ID.5 ID.4 ID.3 0 0 0

The least significant bit has a fixed value of 1 for sending CAN messages. The identifier for CAN messages sent
by the RES-409, in other words, always has a value one higher than for received CAN messages.

DIP.8 DIP.7 DIP.6 DIP.5 DIP.4 DIP.3 DIP.2 DIP.1

ID.10 ID.9 ID.8 ID.7 ID.6 ID.5 ID.4 ID.3 0 0 1

All controllers manufactured up to January 2007:

Switches 5…1 of the 8-pole DIP switch determine the 5 high bits of the 11-bit long standard CAN identifier. The 6
low bits are fixed. Since the identifier 0 must not be used, a maximum of 30 different controllers can be addressed
in a CAN network.

Page 26 RES-409 Version 1

The least significant identifier bit has a fixed value of 0 for receiving CAN messages:

DIP.1 DIP.2 DIP.3 DIP.4 DIP.5

The least significant bit has a fixed value of 1 for sending CAN messages. The identifier for CAN messages sent
by the RES-409, in other words, always has a value one higher than for received CAN messages.

DIP.1 DIP.2 DIP.3 DIP.4 DIP.5

ID.10 ID.9 ID.8 ID.7 ID.6 0 0 0 0 0 1

9.2.7 DIP switches for activating the terminating resistance

The "Termination" DIP switch can be used to switch a terminating resistance of 150ohms between the two CAN
lines (CAN-L and CAN-H). This switch must be set to "ON" in order to activate the resistance.

9.3 Heatsealing band

9.3.1 General
The heatsealing band is a key component in the control loop, since it is both a heating element and a sensor. The
geometry of the heatsealing band is too complex to be discussed at length here. We shall therefore only refer to
a few of the most important physical and electrical properties.
The measuring principle applied for this system necessitates a heatsealing band alloy with a suitable temperature
coefficient TCR, i.e. one whose resistance increases as the temperature rises.
Too low a TCR leads to oscillation or uncontrolled heating.
If a heatsealing band with a higher TCR is used, the controller must be specially calibrated.
The first time the heatsealing band is heated to approximately 200…250°C, the standard alloy undergoes a once-
only resistance change (burn-in effect). The cold resistance of the heatsealing band is reduced by approximately
2…3%. However, this at first glance slight resistance change results in a zero point error of 20…30°C. The zero
point must therefore be corrected after a few heating cycles ( section 9.3.2 "Burning in the heatsealing band" on
page 27).
One very important design feature is the copper or silver-plating of the heatsealing band ends. Cold ends allow
the temperature to be controlled precisely and increase the life of the teflon coating and the heatsealing band.

An overheated or burned-out heatsealing band must no longer be used because the TCR has been
! altered irreversibly.

9.3.2 Burning in the heatsealing band

If a new heatsealing band has been used, the zero point is first of all calibrated while the band is still cold by
activating the "AUTOCAL" function on the controller. When the "AUTOCAL" function has finished, the controller
outputs the preselected calibration temperature (default value: 20°C) as the ACTUAL temperature at the analog
actual value output as well as in the controller status. Adjust the set point to approximately 250°C and send a
"START" command with a heatup time of approximately 1 second ( section 10.3.2 "START / STOP command
"START" signal" on page 34). After cooling down again, the controller usually indicates a value less than 20°C.
Repeat the "AUTOCAL" function. The heatsealing band has now been burned in and the change in the alloying
properties stabilized.

Version 1 RES-409 Page 27

 Startup and operation

The burn-in effect described here does not occur if the heatsealing band has already been thermally pretreated
by the manufacturer.

9.3.3 Replacing the heatsealing band

All power supply leads must be disconnected from the RESISTRON® temperature controller in order to replace
the heatsealing band.

The heatsealing band must be replaced in accordance with the instructions provided by the
! manufacturer.

Each time the heatsealing band is replaced, the zero point must be calibrated with the AUTOCAL function while
the band is still cold, in order to compensate production-related resistance tolerances. The burn-in procedure
described above must be performed for all new heatsealing bands.

9.4 Startup procedure

Please also refer to section 1 "General information" on page 3 and section 2 "Application" on page 7.

Installation and startup may only be performed by technically trained, skilled persons who are
! familiar with the associated risks and warranty provisions.

9.4.1 Initial startup

Prerequisites: The controller must be correctly installed and connected ( section 8 "Montage und Installation" on
page 14).
Proceed as follows to start up the controller for the first time:
1. Switch off the line voltage and verify that all circuits are deenergized.
2. The supply voltage specified on the nameplate of the controller must be identical to the line voltage that is
present in the plant or machine. The line frequency is automatically detected by the temperature controller in
the range from 47 to 63Hz.
3. The settings of the coding switches on the controller depend on the ROPEX Application Report, the heatsealing
band that is used, the required baud rate, and the identifier in the CAN network ( section 9.2 "Controller
configuration" on page 22).
4. Make sure that no START command is being sent.
5. When the voltage is switched on, the yellow "AUTOCAL" LED lights up for approximately 0.3 seconds to
indicate that the controller is being powered up correctly.

All controllers manufactured as of February 2007:

! If the red "FAULT" LED lights up for 0.3s in addition to the yellow "AUTOCAL" LED when the voltage
is switched on, the configuration of this controller has been changed in the visualization software
( section 10.12 "Diagnostic interface / visualization software (as of February 2007)" on page 50). In order
to avoid malfunctions, please check the controller configuration before continuing the startup procedure.

"FAULT" LED ACTION
LED

OFF Short pulses Go to 7

every 1.2s

BLINKS fast OFF Go to 7

LIT OFF Diagnose fault

7. Activate the AUTOCAL function by sending CAN message address 4, value 5 while the heatsealing band is
still cold. The yellow "AUTOCAL" LED lights up for the duration of the calibration process (approx. 10…15s).
A voltage of 0V simultaneously appears at the actual value output (terminals 17+18). If an ATR-x is connected,
it indicates 0…3°C.
When the zero point has been calibrated, the "AUTOCAL" LED goes out and a voltage of 0.66V (300°C range)
or 0.4V (500°C range) appears at the actual value output instead. If an ATR-x is connected, it must be set to
"Z".
If the zero has not been calibrated successfully, the red "FAULT" LED blinks slowly (1Hz). In this case the
controller configuration is incorrect ( section 9.2 "Controller configuration" on page 22 and ROPEX
Application Report). Repeat the calibration after reconfiguring the controller correctly.
8. Burn in the heatsealing band ( section 9.3 "Heatsealing band" on page 27) and repeat the AUTOCAL
function.

The controller is now ready

9.4.2 Restart after replacing the heatsealing band

To replace the heatsealing band, proceed as described in section 9.3 "Heatsealing band" on page 27.

Always use a heatsealing band with the correct alloy, dimensions and copper-plating in order to
! avoid malfunctions and overheating.

Continue with section 9.4, steps 4 to 8.

10.3.1 Temperature setting (set point selection)

Up to four different set points can be permanently stored in the RES-409. The stored values are not lost if the
power supply is interrupted. They can be reloaded on request. It is possible to switch between preheat and main
heat, for instance, or to increase the temperature to a particular set point gradually in a series of steps ("ramp")
simply by programming the set points accordingly. The maximum settable set point Tmax is dependent on the
selected temperature range (see CAN message address 8 and CAN message address 4, value 12). Temperature
ranges of 200°C, 300°C, 400°C and 500°C, can be defined here.
All set points greater than Tmax are rejected by RES-409 controllers manufactured up to January 2007. In this
case, the last stored set point remains valid.
The set point is limited to Tmax and subsequently stored on controllers manufactured as of February 2007. If "Alloy/
range" (CAN message address 8) is set to "Variable" (value 11), Tmax is determined by the selected temperature
range (CAN message address 13h) and the value stored under "Maximum set point" (CAN message B).
The set point selected for the heatsealing temperature must be greater than 40°C. If not, the heatsealing band is
not heated when the start/stop command is activated.

10.3.2 START / STOP command "START" signal

A "START" command or a "START" signal is rejected ("HEAT" LED blinks fast) if the "AUTOCAL"
! function is running or a "RESET" command is active.

The fault output is switched if a "START" command (or the "START" signal) is activated while a warning message
with error codes 8…12 (as of February 2007 also: 104…106, 111…114, 211, 302, 303) is displayed
( section 10.16 "Error messages" on page 52). The heatsealing band is no longer heated.

By means of the CAN protocol:

Page 34 RES-409 Version 1

Controller functions

The "Value" parameter in the START command (address 5) has the following structure:

Bit no. Name Meaning

Bits 0…7 Heatup time Time in 10ms steps until the control process is automatically deactivated
(at least 50ms).

Bits 8…9 Set point Number of the required set point (0…3)

Bits 10…15 Not assigned

The START command is only accepted if there are no faults and the "AUTOCAL" function is not running
( section 10.4.1 "Controller status" on page 39). The number of the required set point and the maximum heatup
time (50ms…2550ms) are transferred together with the START command. If the controller must heat for longer
than 2550ms (e.g. for continuous heating), a new START command must be sent before the end of the heatup
time. This mechanism ensures that the controller does not heat in an uncontrolled way for long periods if there is
no CAN communication. The heating phase can be prematurely terminated by sending a START command with
a heatup time < 5 (corresponds to < 50ms), whereby the set point number is irrelevant. The controller then stops
the heating phase immediately and changes to measuring mode.
Each START/STOP command is answered with an acknowledgment message (address 9), which also contains
the 6 low bits of the controller status in addition to the actual temperature value.

By means of a 24VDC control signal (controllers manufactured as of February 2007):

A START/STOP command for set points 0 and 1 can also be activated by means of a digital 24VDC control signal
(START 0 or START 1). When a "START" signal is activated, the controller-internal set/actual comparison is
enabled and the heatsealing band is heated to the SET temperature. It remains at this temperature until the signal
is deactivated again.
The "HEAT" LED on the front panel of the RES-409 is lit continuously for the duration of the heating phase.
The "START" signal (START 0) for set point 0 is activated by applying a 24VDC signal at terminals 5+6.

The set point selected for the heatsealing temperature must be greater than 40°C. If not, the heatsealing band is
not heated ("HEAT" LED blinks).
The fault output is switched if a "START" command (or the "START" signal) is activated while a warning message
with error codes 8…12 (as of February 2007 also: 104…106, 111…114, 211, 302, 303) is displayed
( section 10.16 "Error messages" on page 52). The heatsealing band is no longer heated.

The 24VDC "START 0" signal has the highest priority and overwrites the values specified by both
!the 24VDC "START 1 signal and all "START" commands sent via the CAN interface.
The 24VDC "START 1" signal has the lowest priority. All START sent commands via the CAN interface and
the 24VDC "START 0" signal have higher priority.

10.3.3 Automatic zero calibration (AUTOCAL)

Owing to the automatic zero calibration (AUTOCAL) function, there is no need to adjust the zero point manually
on the controller. The "AUTOCAL" function matches the controller to the current and voltage signals that are
present in the system.
The automatic calibration process takes around 10…15 seconds. The heatsealing band is not heated.
The yellow LED on the front panel lights up when the "AUTOCAL" function is active. The actual value output
(terminals 17+18) is set to 0…3°C (corresponds to approx. 0 VDC).
If the temperature of the heatsealing band varies on controllers manufactured as of February 2007, the
"AUTOCAL" function is run a maximum of three times. If the function still cannot be executed successfully, an error
message appears (error code 114;  section 10.16 "Error messages" on page 52).
The initial temperature (ambient temperature) of the heatsealing bar(s) which is currently valid for calibration can
be set in the 0…40°C range. The CAN message "Store calibration temperature" (address 6, receive) is used for
this purpose. The last stored calibration temperature is displayed as the CAN message "Actual calibration
temperature" (address 8, send). The default value is 20°C.
The CAN message for starting the "AUTOCAL" function (address 4, value 5) is executed by the controller
immediately providing the "AUTOCAL" function is not locked. "AUTOCAL active" appears in the controller status.

You should always wait for the heatsealing band and the bar to cool down (to ambient temperature)
! before running the "AUTOCAL" function.

Reasons for locked "AUTOCAL" function:

Page 36 RES-409 Version 1

Controller functions

1. The "AUTOCAL" function cannot be activated until 10seconds after the controller is switched on. If you attempt
to run it sooner, it will not work.
2. The "AUTOCAL" function cannot be activated if the heatsealing band cools down at a rate of more than 0.1K/s.
3. The "AUTOCAL" function is not run until the end of the heatup time ("HEAT" LED lit).
4. If the "RESET" signal (24VDC) is activated, the "AUTOCAL" function is not executed.
5. Directly after the controller is powered up, the "AUTOCAL" function cannot be run if error codes 1…3, 5…7 (as
of February 2007 also: 101…103, 201…203, 801, 9xx) are displayed ( section 10.16 "Error messages" on
page 52). If the controller has already operated correctly – a minimum of once – after powering up, the
"AUTOCAL" function cannot be run if error codes 5…7x (as of February 2007 also: 201…203, 801, 9xx) are
displayed.
If the "AUTOCAL" function is temporarily locked, the request is stored. As soon as "AUTOCAL" is allowed again,
the function is started and "AUTOCAL active" appears in the controller status.
If a START or STOP command is received between the "AUTOCAL" request and the actual start of the
"AUTOCAL" function, the "AUTOCAL" request is canceled again and the START or STOP command is executed
instead.

10.3.4 Alloy / range (heatsealing band alloy TCR / temperature range)

The RES-409 can be configured for different heatsealing band alloys and temperature ranges (Tmax) with CAN
message address 8. The set heatsealing band alloy and temperature range are permanently stored in the
controller and are not lost even if the power supply fails. The current setting can be reloaded by means of CAN
message address 11. The controller is delivered with the setting "1", in other words TCR = 1100ppm and
temperature range = 300°C.
If "Alloy/range" (CAN message address 8) is set to "Variable" (value 11), you can now specify the temperature
coefficient TCR of the heatsealing band material with CAN message address A, the temperature range with CAN
message address 14h, and the maximum permissible set point Tmax with CAN message address 13h.
If a set point which is higher than the maximum permissible temperature Tmax is selected, it is either limited to the
maximum value (controllers manufactured as of February 2007) or ignored (controllers manufactured up to
January 2007).
The scale of the analog output for the ACTUAL temperature is dependent on the selected temperature range:

Temperature
Scale
range

200°C and 300°C 0…10VDC (corresponds to

0…300°C)

400°C and 500°C 0…10VDC (corresponds to

0…500°C)

You must always run the "AUTOCAL" function after changing the alloy/range.
!

10.3.5 RESET command

This command is used to reset the controller. If the controller reports a fault ( section 10.4.1 "Controller status"
on page 39), it must be reset with this command (and possibly also with an AUTOCAL command).
If a communication problem occurs, the controller must be reset by briefly disconnecting it from the power supply.

The controller runs an internal initialization lasting approximately 500ms after the "RESET"
! command is received. The next heatsealing process cannot be started until it has finished.

Version 1 RES-409 Page 37

 Controller functions

If a contactor Kb is used to deactivate the control loop ( section 8.3 "Power supply" on page 17),
! it must be reliably energized again 200ms at the latest after the "RESET" command is received (note
the contactor switching and delay times). If it is energized too late, an error message will be output by the
controller.

10.3.6 Querying the ACTUAL temperature

If the RES-409 receives a command requesting the actual value, it returns the current ACTUAL temperature in °C.
Negative temperatures are identified by the "sign" bit (most significant bit).

10.4 Sending CAN messages

RESISTRON® temperature controller in a CAN network. It is divided into two parts, in order to comply with the
message format ( section 10.2 "CAN protocol" on page 31). Each part consists of three digits, which are stored
in BCD format in "value.H" and "value.L".

Only the 300°C and 500°C temperature ranges appear at this actual value output. If a temperature range of 200°C
is set with CAN message address 8 ("Alloy/range"), it appears at this output in the 0…300°C range. A 400°C
temperature range is indicated as 0…500°C.
An indicating instrument can be connected to the output in order to visualize the temperature of the heatsealing
band.
The characteristics of the ROPEX ATR-x temperature meter (size, scaling, dynamic response) are ideally suited
to this application and this instrument should therefore always be used ( section 5 "Accessories and
modifications" on page 9).
The meter not only facilitates SET-ACTUAL comparisons but also enables other criteria such as the heating rate,
set point reached within the specified time, heatsealing band cooling etc. to be evaluated.
This instrument additionally permits disturbances in the control loop (loose connections, contacting or wiring
problems) as well as any line disturbances to be efficiently monitored and accurately interpreted. The same applies
if mutual interference occurs between several neighboring control loops.

This output is not potential-free and can carry the secondary voltage of the impulse transformer.
! External grounding is not allowed. If this warning is ignored, the controller will be damaged by frame
currents. Shock protection must be provided.

If a fault occurs, this analog output is used to display selective error messages ( section 10.16 "Error messages"
on page 52).

10.6 Hold mode

The ACTUAL temperature query via the CAN interface ( section 10.3.6 "Querying the ACTUAL temperature" on
page 38) can be set in CAN message address 9 ( section 10.3 "Receiving CAN messages" on page 32). The
following settings are possible:
1. "OFF" (factory setting)
The currently measured ACTUAL temperature is transferred via the CAN interface when the ACTUAL
temperature is queried.
2. "ON"
The ACTUAL temperature at the end of the last heating phase is transferred when the ACTUAL temperature
is queried. When the controller is powered up, the real ACTUAL temperature is initially transferred until the end
of the first heating phase.

Version 1 RES-409 Page 43

 Controller functions

3. "2 seconds"
The current ACTUAL temperature is transferred for an additional 2 seconds at the end of a heating phase if it
is queried via the CAN interface. The ACTUAL temperature is then transferred again in real time until the end
of the next heating phase.

Hold mode only applies to queries via the CAN interface. The ACTUAL temperature always appears
! in real time at the analog actual value output.

The length of the measuring impulses generated by the controller can be set with this parameter (CAN message
address 12). It may be necessary to set a measuring impulse that is longer than the default 1.7ms for certain
applications ( ROPEX Application Report).

This parameter can be set either via the CAN interface (CAN message address 12) or in the ROPEX
! visualization software ( section 10.12 "Diagnostic interface / visualization software (as of February
2007)" on page 50).

10.8 Automatic phase compensation (AUTOCOMP, as of February 2007)

It may be necessary to compensate the phase angle displacement between the UR and IR measuring signals in
certain heatsealing applications ( ROPEX Application Report). The "AUTOCOMP" function is provided for this
purpose (CAN message address 13).
The following settings are possible:
1. "OFF" (factory setting)
The "AUTOCOMP" function is deactivated
2. "ON"
The "AUTOCOMP" function is executed whenever the "AUTOCAL" function ( section 10.3.3 "Automatic zero
calibration (AUTOCAL)" on page 36) is run twice in quick succession. The interval between the end of the first
"AUTOCAL" function and the start of the second "AUTOCAL" function must be shorter than 2.0s. The second
"AUTOCAL" function only takes around 2.0s and includes the "AUTOCOMP" function.
If the interval between the two "AUTOCAL" functions is longer than 2.0s, "AUTOCAL" is run without
"AUTOCOMP" the second time.

The "AUTOCOMP" function must be activated either in the ROPEX visualization software
! ( section 10.12 "Diagnostic interface / visualization software (as of February 2007)" on page 50) or
via the CAN interface (CAN message address 13) (default setting: AUTOCOMP off).

10.9 Temperature monitoring / "temperature OK" bit (as of February 2007)

In control mode (START is active), the RES-409 checks whether the ACTUAL temperature is within a settable
tolerance band ("OK" window) either side of the SET temperature.
The "Temperature OK" function is specified in CAN message address 9. The lower and upper tolerance band
limits ( Δϑ ) can be varied between 3 and 99°C (up to January 2007: 3…20°C) with CAN message address 7. The
upper and lower tolerance band limits can also be set independently of one another on controllers manufactured
as of February 2007 (CAN message addresses D and E).
The following settings are possible:
1. "Off"
"Temperature OK" bit has no function.
2. "Active if Tact = Tset" (factory setting)
The "Temperature OK" bit (bit 3) in the controller status ( section 10.4.1 "Controller status" on page 39) has
the value "1" if the actual value is inside the specified temperature tolerance band (CAN message address 7
or addresses D and E). If the actual temperature is outside the tolerance band, the "Temperature OK" bit has
the value "0" (see graph below).

3. "Active if Tact = Tset" with latch function

The "Temperature OK" bit (bit 3) in the controller status ( section 10.4.1 "Controller status" on page 39) has
the value "1" if the actual value is inside the specified temperature tolerance band (CAN message address 7
or addresses D and E). If the actual temperature leaves the tolerance band even once while a "START"
command - or a "START" signal - is active, the value of the "Temperature OK" bit changes to "0". This value
applies until the next START command is received (or the next start signal is activated). The state of the
"Temperature OK" bit can thus also be interrogated by the higher-level PLC after a heatsealing process (latch
function, see graph below).

10.10 Temperature diagnosis (as of February 2007)

An additional temperature diagnosis can be activated in the ROPEX visualization software ( section 10.12
"Diagnostic interface / visualization software (as of February 2007)" on page 50). The RES-409 checks whether
the ACTUAL temperature is within a settable tolerance band ("OK" window) either side of the SET temperature.
The lower (Δϑ lowern) and upper ( Δϑ upper ) tolerance band limits are configured in the factory to -10K and +10K.
These values can be set independently of one another in the ROPEX visualization software.
If the ACTUAL temperature is inside the specified tolerance band when a START command is sent via the CAN
interface - or a 24VDC signal (START 0 or START 1) is activated - the temperature diagnosis is also activated. If
the ACTUAL temperature leaves the tolerance band, the corresponding error code (307 or 308) is indicated and
the fault output is switched ( section 10.16 "Error messages" on page 52).

If the temperature diagnosis is not activated by the time the "START" signal is deactivated (i.e. if the ACTUAL
temperature does not exceed the upper or lower tolerance band limit), the corresponding error code (309 or 310)
is indicated and the fault relay is switched.
An additional delay time (0..9.9s) can be set via the CAN interface (CAN message address 10) or in the ROPEX
visualization software. The first time the lower tolerance band limit is exceeded, the temperature diagnosis is not
activated until the parameterized delay time has elapsed. The temperature diagnosis function can thus be
selectively deactivated, e.g. if the temperature drops temporarily because the sealing jaws are closed.

The values that can be set in the ROPEX visualization software for the upper and lower tolerance
! band are identical to those for the "Temperature OK" bit. These values are transferred with CAN
message address 7 (or addresses D and E).

10.11 Heatup timeout (as of February 2007)

An additional heatup timeout can be activated either in the ROPEX visualization software ( section 10.12
"Diagnostic interface / visualization software (as of February 2007)" on page 50) or via the CAN interface (CAN
message address 11). This timeout starts as soon as any START command is received via the CAN interface (or
the 24VDC START 0 signal is activated).
The RES-409 then monitors the time required for the ACTUAL temperature to reach 95% of the SET temperature.
If this time is longer than the parameterized time, the corresponding error code (304) is indicated and the fault relay
is switched ( section 10.16 "Error messages" on page 52).

The heatup timeout must be activated either in the ROPEX visualization software ( section 10.12
! "Diagnostic interface / visualization software (as of February 2007)" on page 50) or via the CAN
interface (CAN message address 11) (default setting: heatup timeout off).

10.12 Diagnostic interface / visualization software (as of February 2007)

An interface with a 6-pole Western socket is provided for system diagnostics and process visualization. This
interface allows a data connection to be set up to the ROPEX visualization software using the ROPEX CI-USB-1
communication interface.
DIAG

Only a ROPEX communication interface is allowed to be connected to the diagnostic interface.

! Connecting another device (e.g. a telephone cable) could result in malfunctions or damage to the
controller.

The ROPEX visualization software is described in a separate document.

10.13 Booster connection

All controllers manufactured up to January 2007 only have an optional connection for an external switching
amplifier (booster) ( section 5.2 "Modifications (MODs)" on page 10). Modification 26 (MOD 26) must be
installed in the controller for this purpose.
A booster connection is provided as standard on all RES-409 controllers manufactured as of February 2007.

Page 50 RES-409 Version 1

Controller functions

This connection (at terminals 15+16) is necessary for high primary currents (continuous current > 5A, pulsed
current > 25A). The switching amplifier should be wired as described in section 8.7 "Wiring diagram with booster
connection (MOD 26)" on page 21.

10.14 Undervoltage detection (as of February 2007)

Trouble-free operation of the temperature controller is guaranteed within the line voltage tolerance range specified
in section 6 "Technical data" on page 11.
If the line voltage drops below the lower limit of the permissible range, the controller is switched to standby mode.
This is also indicated in the controller status, bit no. 14 ( section 10.4.1 "Controller status" on page 39).
Normal operation is automatically resumed when the input voltage returns to the specified tolerance range.
Standby mode is indicated by 0…3°C (corresponds to approx. 0V) at the analog output.

Trouble-free operation of the controller is only guaranteed within the specified input voltage
! tolerance range. An external voltage monitor must be connected to prevent defective heatseals as
a result of low line voltage.

10.15 System monitoring / fault output

To increase operating reliability and prevent faulty heatsealing, the controller incorporates special hardware and
software features that facilitate selective fault messages and diagnosis. Both the external wiring and the internal
system are monitored.
These features crucially support the system owner in localizing the cause of an abnormal operating state.
System faults are reported or differentiated by means of the following elements.

A.) Red "FAULT" LED on the controller lights up with three states:

1. Blinks fast (4Hz)

The "AUTOCAL" function must be run (error codes 8+9; as of February 2007 also: 104…106, 211, 302, 303).
2. Blinks slowly (1Hz)
The system configuration is incorrect and the zero calibration (AUTOCAL function) was therefore unsuccessful
( section 9.2 "Controller configuration" on page 22). This corresponds to error codes 10…12 (as of
February 2007 also: 111…114).
1. Lit continuously:
This indicates a fault that prevents the controller from being started up (error codes 1…7; as of February 2007
also: 101…103, 107, 108, 201…203, 307, 308, 801, 9xx).
Also in instances 1 and 2 if a "START" command is simultaneously sent.
As a rule, this refers to an external wiring fault.

B.) Fault relay (relay contact terminals 12+13+14):

The fault relay is set in the factory as follows:

• NOT ACTIVE in operating states A.1 and A.2, but active if a "START" signal is activated in one of these states.
• ACTIVE in operating state A.3.
If the fault relay is configured differently from the factory setting ( section 9.2.3 "Configuration of the fault relay"
on page 24), these states are inverted.

C.) Error code output by means of the CAN

protocol

Version 1 RES-409 Page 51

 Controller functions

If an error occurs, the fault bit is set in the controller status (bit 4) ( section 10.4.1 "Controller status" on page 39)
and in the acknowledgment message (bit 14) ( section 10.4.2 "Acknowledgment message" on page 40). The
error message appears at bit positions 8…11 in the controller status.

D.) Error code output by means of the 0 to 10V actual value output (terminals 17+18):

Since the temperature no longer needs to be indicated if the controller is faulty, the actual value output is used to
display error codes in the event of a fault.
13 voltage levels (up to January 2007: 12 voltage levels) are provided for this purpose in the 0…10VDC range,
each of which is assigned an error code ( section 10.16 "Error messages" on page 52).
If a state that requires "AUTOCAL" occurs – or if the controller configuration is incorrect – (error codes 8…12; as
of February 2007 also: 104…106, 111…114, 211, 302, 303), the actual value output jumps back and forth at 1Hz
between the voltage value corresponding to this error and the end of the scale (10VDC, i.e. 300°C or 500°C). If
a "START" command is sent in one of these states (or a "START" signal is activated), the voltage value no longer
changes.

An error message can only be reset by sending a "RESET" command or by switching the controller
! off and then on again.

Invalid error messages may appear when the controller is switched off owing to the undefined
! operating state. This must be taken into account when they are evaluated by the higher-level
controller (e.g. a PLC) in order to avoid false alarms.

10.16 Error messages

A detailed fault diagnosis can be carried out using the CAN protocol. A two-digit error code (4-bit) can be queried
for this purpose via CAN message address 4, value 4 ( section 10.4.1 "Controller status" on page 39). All
controllers manufactured as of February 2007 support three-digit error codes (10-bit) as an additional option. This
can be queried with CAN message address 4, value 13 (ƒ section 10.4.3 "Fault / AUTOCAL status (as of February
2007)" on page 41).
The error codes provide information about the exact cause of the fault. A voltage corresponding to the error code
is additionally generated at the actual value output.
The table below shows how the analog voltage values at the actual value output are assigned to the faults that
have occurred. It also describes each fault and the required corrective action.
The error messages are listed in two separate tables for controllers "up to January 2007" and "as of February
2007". The block diagram in section 10.17 "Fault areas and causes" on page 57 permits each fault to be cleared
quickly and efficiently.
13 voltage levels for fault diagnostics appear at the actual value output of all controllers manufactured as of
February 2007. The error messages are differentiated even more finely internally. The error codes described
below can also be displayed via the CAN interface (CAN message address 4, value 13) or in the ROPEX
visualization software ( section 10.12 "Diagnostic interface / visualization software (as of February 2007)" on
page 50 to facilitate troubleshooting).

If the actual value output is evaluated in order to identify an error message – in the higher-level
! controller, for instance – the tolerance window must be adjusted to prevent it from being incorrectly
interpreted. Please note the tolerances of the actual value output ( section 6 "Technical data" on
page 11).
