The UIPET-03 microprocessor based controller is capable of controlling stretch blow moulding
machines. The UIPET-03 performs the following functions :
1) Infrared lamps power control
2) Sequence control
3) Production counting
4) Displaying set power, timing and piece counters.

Press the RIGHT arrow key.
The cursor stops blinking at the first digit and the digit to it’s right starts blinking. Use the UP or
DOWN keys, to set this digit.
Similarly all four digits for this zone are set to their desired values. On completion of this setting,
press the ENTER key.the cursor will disappear.
Press the DOWN key.
The Display will display the current set point for zone 2. . Use the procedure listed above, to set the
desired temperature for this zone.
Similarly, by pressing, the DOWN key, (when all four digits are blinking), one can set the zone3,
zone4,zone5,zone6 and zone7 parameters also.
In order to exit the power setting mode, press the CANCEL key. The Display, will now display, the
set power in each of the zones in the first line of the display.. The display continuously shows the set
power for the seven zones, one after the other..
TIMER SETTINGS
The following timers which are used in auto mode have to be set by the user.
1. MOULD SLOW
2. SEAL (LOW) delay.
3. SEAL (HIGH) delay.
4. BLOW delay.
5. BLOW (LOW PRESSURE) time.
6. BLOW (HIGH PRESSURE) time.
7. PIN UP delay.
8. STRETCH OUT delay.
9. CYCLE time.
These timers are set in multiples of 0.01 seconds, and have a maximum value of 99.99 seconds. In
order to set the timers, follow the procedure described below.
Press the SET TIMER key to initiate programming of the various timers.
The current value of mould slow delay will be displayed in the timer window.
Press the ENTER key to change this parameter. The cursor blinks at the most significant digit.
Press the UP or DOWN key to set the blinking digit to the desired value.
Press the RIGHT arrow key.
The first digit stops blinking and the digit to it’s right starts blinking. Use the UP or DOWN keys, to
set this digit.
Similarly all four digits for this timer are set to their desired values. On completion of this setting,
press the ENTER key.The cursor disappears.
Press the DOWN key.
Follow the steps outlined above to set the seal (low) timing to the desired value.
In order to exit the timer setting mode, press the CANCEL key .The timer window will display the
current value of the timer which has started timing .The timer/counter window will display the cycle
time.
COUNTER SETTINGS
The PLC counts the number of moulding cycles that have taken place. The various counters and their
functions are described below.
MANUAL MODE
The manual mode of operation, is selected by the auto/manual selector switch, provided on the
machine. In the manual mode of operation, the user can switch the various solenoids on or off from
the front panel, by pressing the corresponding keys. The manual functions incorporated are :
1. MOULD CLOSE.
2. MOULD LOCK
3. MOULD OPEN
4. SEAL (LOW)
5. SEAL (HIGH).
6. STRETCH IN.
7. BLOW (LOW PRESSURE).
5
8. BLOW (HIGH PRESSURE).
In order to actuate a particular solenoid, the corresponding key, should be pressed. The LED in the
key will be switched on, and the solenoid will be switched on. The solenoid will remain on, as long
as the corresponding key is pressed.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The controller allows the user to check the status of inputs, and to exercise the outputs.
CHECKING THE INPUTS
In order to check the inputs, follow the procedure outlined below.
Press the INPUT STATUS key
The DISPLAY shows the name of the first input,and whether it is on or off. The user can actuate the
corresponding pushbutton/limit switch and check if the unit displays the status of the button
correctly. If this is not the case, check if the wiring is done correctly. Also check if the voltage at the
input00 pin on the DC INPUT MODULE is between 20–24VDC (with respect to COM on the same
connector). Otherwise check the voltage of 24VDC with respect to COM. If it is not between 20-
24VDC, there could be a short between 24VDC and COM, or the INPUT unit has failed, and
requires to be repaired.
To check other inputs, press the UP arrow key.
The display shows the name of the next input and whether it is on or off, in top two windows. The
user can actuate the corresponding pushbutton/limit switch and check if the display displays the
status of the button correctly Thus the user can check all the 127inputs.
Press CANCEL to return to normal display.
CHECKING THE OUTPUTS
In order to check the outputs put the machine in manual mode and follow the procedure outlined
below.
Press the OUTPUTSTATUS key..
The display shows thename of the first output, and whether it is on or off. The user can switch the
output on by pressing the ENTER key once, and can switch the output off by pressing the ENTER
key again in manual mode.
Press the UP arrow key.
The display shows the name of the next output and whether it is on or off .The user can switch the
output on by pressing the ENTER key once, and can switch the output off by pressing the ENTER
key again.
Thus the user can check all 127outputs. Press CANCEL to return to normal display.
