Overview
The SII controller is a high performance motion controller used on rollformers, cut-tolength lines, and tube mills. It is designed using a modern 32-bit embedded processor
utilizing the latest in surface mount technology, including BGA technology. It has
features that allow the operator to be more productive and efficient at his job. It also
allows tracking of production through the use of SmartComm Office-to-Shop Program.
The SII controller is capable of controlling many types of closed loop lines depending on
the setup. There will be sections of the manual that do not apply to your specific
application and should be skipped over.
Interface
The SII controller has an easy to use interface. The controller has a built in 10.4 color
display with a convenient touch-screen. It also has a membrane keypad and a PS2
keyboard connector.

Program Parts
NOTE: A Shear Only controller will not have this screen. If you think your controller has
punching capability check the User Interface Setting Use Parts. This parameter must be set to
something other than No.
Punch Entry Display
This screen is used to enter operations for a part from the previous screen.
Headings
PART: User name of part (10 characters, Alphanumeric)
DESCRIPTION: Description of part if needed (120 characters, Alphanumeric)
TOOL: Tool number (10 characters, Alphanumeric)
LOCATION: Physical dimension that the hole will be punched on the part with reference to the
material flow.
REFERENCE: Point to measure from including; leading and trailing edge, leading and trailing
center, and even spacing options.
Y-POSITION: Distance from the edge of the material (this is perpendicular to material flow);
the offset is based upon how the home or datum line for the Y-axis is setup.

and the punch position is 12 inches from leading center, the part will be punched
at 48 inches. Below is an example of the part programmed in the controller and where the holes

Even Spacing
Spacing Start
This is used to specify the location of the first hole for Even Spacing punch
references. This is optional for even spaced operations. If it is used, it must be
specified above the even space reference. See Even Spacing for more details.
Spacing End
This is used to limit an even spacing punch reference from locating a punch too
close to the end of a part. This specifies the minimum distance from the end of a
part that an even spaced punch can occur. This parameter is optional for even
spaced operations. If it is used, it must be specified above the even space
reference. See Even Spacing for more details.
Even Spacing
This causes the specified tool to fire repeatably, spaced at the specified amount.
To prevent punches form occurring too close to the ends of a part, the Spacing
Start and Spacing End reference may be defined before this reference is entered.
Below is an example of the part programmed in the controller and where the holes should be on
the part.
Ex.

Print Messages
Print messages can be programmed just like punch locations. The controller treats the printer
similar to punch presses. Leading Edge, Trailing Edge, etc. can all be used with a print location.
Multiple messages using one head
Press Settings need to configured for the multiple messages. There will be multiple tool numbers
that call out the same Press for the Printer with a Gag Number that will be associated with the
print field inside the Part Description.
PRESS SETTINGS

Panel Mounting
The SII controller is designed for mounting in a panel. The drawing below should be used
to locate the required rectangular cut out and the four required mounting holes.
NOTE: The controllers threaded studs are used to ground the controller. Please make sure
to remove any paint from the metal panel under the nuts in order to establish a good electrical
connection. Also, be sure to use all four nuts and thread them down until they are snug.

Electrical Connections
Electrical Connections are made on one of four connectors. The connector locations are
shown on the drawing below. The first and last pin numbers are shown, as well.
NOTE: The single axis version only has connectors X1 to X4 and the enclosure is thinner.
*** Refer to Appendix B for specific inputs and outputs. ***
The specific operation of the inputs and outputs is determined by the model code of the SII
Controller. This is obtained by going to the Config screen and then to the Compact Flash
screen and pressing F7 for Make Docs. This will create an html file listing the inputs and
outputs designations.
Output Connectors
The first two pins are used for the I/O power supply. It is recommended this be a
different 24V DC supply than the supply used for the Digital supply.
The outputs are active low DC open drain outputs. They are able to sink 6-Amps of
current continuously. The outputs are protected with TVS diodes and a low pass filter.

Input Connectors
The first sixteen pins on these connectors are used for the controllers inputs. All of the
controllers inputs are active low DC inputs. They are protected with TVS diodes and a
low pass filter network.
The last two pins on this connector are used for the digital power supply and its ground.
A separate regulated 24VDC power supply should be used to power the controller and
connect to these two pins. It is recommended that the supply is mounted in the same
cabinet as the controller and the +24V and ground wires are twisted together and routed
to the controller.
