TONiCTM FS RTLC20-S Functional Safety installation guide and safety manual

Safety function
The TONiC FS encoder system provides 1 Vpp (nominal) sine and cosine outputs, where the sine and cosine outputs are 90° phase shifted, in order for the evaluation unit to perform incremental counting and thereby confirm machine position is within safe limits.
The following restrictions apply to this claim:
· The system installer must perform a verified commissioning test during installation.
· The system repairer must perform a verified commissioning test following replacement of a system part.
· When installed correctly, the TONiC FS system shall have mechanical safe position not exceeding ±1 mm
NOTE: Thermal expansion effects of the scale and readhead mounting tolerances are excluded from the mechanical safe position.
· The TONiC FS system includes no self-diagnostic function.
NOTE: Faults are detected only by the evaluation unit monitoring. When errors are detected it is the responsibility of the system manufacturer to place the system into a safe state.

Fault exclusions
The following actions will invalidate the Functional Safety certification of the TONiC FS system: · Faults caused by cutting and reconnecting the readhead cable or extending the
readhead cable. · Incorrect installation of the readhead. · Incorrect installation of the RTLC20-S scale. · Failure to follow the instructions contained within this installation manual. · Dismantling of the TONiC readhead, Ti0000A00A interface or the DOP interface. · Operating the system outside of the limits specified within this installation manual.

Failure modes
Failure modes are detected by evaluation unit monitoring. See `Functional Safety data declaration’ on page 11 for a summary of the FMEDA.

NOTE: For the purposes of the FMEDA calculation the following conditions have been assumed:

Method Environment Temperature

SN29500-2005-1 Ground mobile 85 °C

Original instructions

Installation

For the safety function to be valid the instructions detailed in this installation guide must be followed. The information relating to all scale types and mounting options is listed. The builder/ installer /maintainer/repairer must apply the instructions for the product being installed as defined by this installation guide.
The following general conditions must be observed during installation:
· Observe ESD handling precautions when handling the cable connectors.
· Cleaning mating surfaces before mounting the scale.

Commissioning test
The following checks MUST be performed following installation and commissioning of the TONiC FS encoder system for the first time, and also following repair of the system (replacement systems parts): Axis movement check

Move the axis over its full travel to verify the following:
· Position output is correct within a tolerance of ±10%.
· Direction of movement is correct.
· The signal amplitude for both sine and cosine signals falls within the limits defined in `Evaluation unit monitoring’.
NOTE: Should the working temperature of the readhead need to be measured attach a suitable sensor directly to the aluminium readhead housing. Do not attach to the label that shows the product details. Do not drill into the housing as this may compromise the sealing or technical function. Route the sensor cable away from moving parts and along the same path as the readhead cable.

Evaluation unit monitoring

To achieve full system integrity the evaluation unit must continuously monitor the analogue outputs and, in the case of fault detection, place the system into a safe state within the process safety time.

Signal amplitude check

Nominal signal amplitude value is 1 V, indicating full signal strength where (sine2 + cosine2) = 1 V.

Sine/cosine cross check Following error check

A fault condition must be asserted if the analogue output is 0.7 V and 1.35 V.
Sine and cosine signals must be evaluated separately and the results compared. A fault condition must be asserted if the phase shift is incorrect with reference to the safe position limit for the system, see Ti interface output specifications’ on page 48 orDOP interface output specifications’ on page 50.
Following error is defined as the difference between the expected position and position feedback. A fault condition must be asserted if the following error exceeds the safe position limit for the system.

NOTES:
· The evaluation unit must achieve medium diagnostic coverage ( 90%) according to ISO 13849.
· Improper setting of the switching thresholds and hysteresis in signal evaluation can result in incorrect determination of direction of movement, position or speed.
· A persistent fault condition may indicate a hardware failure of the TONiC FS system or an installation problem.

Original instructions

Storage and handling
DO ensure that protection is provided for the scale, readhead and interfaces when transporting a machine with that equipment already installed. DO store scale in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight and in it’s original packaging prior to installation. DO allow scale to acclimatize to installation environment prior to installation. DO store at < 95% RH DO operate at < 80% RH DO install between 15 °C and 25 °C DO store between -20 °C and +70 °C DO operate between 0 °C and +70 °C

Maintenance and cleaning

In order to retain full Functional Safety compliance, this encoder system needs to be maintained appropriately. The maintenance check intervals will be defined by the machine builder/installer according to their risk assessment. There are no user serviceable parts within the readhead or interface. The lid of the readhead must not be removed.
The following checks should be carried out:
· Check the readhead to bracket screws are correctly tightened.
· Check for worn or damaged cable connecting the readhead to the interface.
· Check that the scale has not been damaged or contaminated. If required, clean the system using approved solvents (see `Storage and handling’ on page 20).

NOTE: Do not attempt to move the RTLC20-S scale as this will damage the adhesive bond.
When cleaning the system:
DO use Renishaw (A-9523-4040) alcohol wetted scale wipes to clean the readhead optics and scale, available from your local Renishaw representative.
Or use a clean, dry, lint-free cloth.
Or use only the following solvents sparingly with a wetted lint-free cloth:
· Propan-2-ol (iso-propyl alcohol) CH3CHOHCH3 · n-Heptane CH3(CH2)5CH3 DO NOT use the following aggressive solvents to clean the TONiC FS readhead or the RTLC20-S scale:
· Acetone CH3COCH3 · Chlorinated solvents
· Methylated spirits

Repair
Repair is by replacement of system parts only. The replacement parts must have the same part number as the parts being replaced. The new system must be installed and commissioned in accordance with the `Commissioning test’ on page 14. It is advisable that, in the event of failure, the affected parts should be returned to Renishaw for further analysis. Using damaged parts invalidates the Functional Safety certification.

Proof testing
It is the responsibility of the system manufacturer to define any proof testing of the system. Due to the diagnostic coverage (DC) and safe failure fraction (SFF) required to achieve SIL2, the encoder can only support continuous demand use.

Original instructions

Applying the RTLC20-S scale
There are two versions of scale applicator for use with the RTLC20-S scale; side mount and top mount. The side mount version is shown below, but the application method is the same for both versions of the scale applicator.
1. Allow the scale to acclimatise to the installation environment prior to installation.
2. Mark out the start position for the scale on the axis substrate ensuring that there is enough room for the end covers if required (see RTLC20-S scale installation drawing’ on page 26). 3\. Thoroughly clean and degrease the substrate using the recommended solvents (seeStorage and handling’ on page 20). Allow the substrate to dry before applying the scale.
4. Mount the appropriate scale applicator to the readhead mounting bracket. Place the green shim supplied with the readhead between the applicator and the substrate to set the nominal height.

7. Apply firm finger pressure via a clean, dry, lint-free cloth to ensure the scale end adheres well to the substrate.
8. Slowly and smoothly move the applicator through the entire axis of travel. Ensure the backing paper is pulled manually from the scale and does not catch under the applicator. Direction of scale application
RTLC20-S
Backing tape

NOTE: The scale applicator can be mounted either way round to enable the easiest orientation for the scale installation.
5. Move the axis to the start of travel leaving enough room for the scale to be inserted through the applicator, as shown below.
6. Begin to remove the backing paper from the scale and insert the scale into the applicator up to the start position. Ensure the backing tape is routed under the splitter screw.
Start position

Splitter screw

Start position

9. During installation ensure the scale adheres to the substrate using light finger pressure.
10. Remove the applicator and, if necessary, adhere the remaining scale manually. 11. Apply firm finger pressure via a clean, dry, lint-free cloth along the length of the scale
after application to ensure complete adhesion.
12. Clean the scale using Renishaw scale cleaning wipes or a clean, dry, lint-free cloth.
13. Fit the optional end covers (see Fitting the end covers’ on page 30). 14. Allow 24 hours for complete adhesion of the scale before fitting the datum clamp (seeFitting the datum clamp’ on page 30).

Fitting the end covers

The end cover kit is designed to be used with the RTLC20-S scale to provide protection for exposed scale ends. NOTE: The end covers can be fitted before or after readhead installation. 1. Remove the backing tape from the adhesive tape on the back of the end cover.
2. Align markers on the edges of the end cover with the end of the scale and place the end cover over the scale.

Fitting the datum clamp
IMPORTANT: Allow 24 hours after scale application before fitting the datum clamp. The datum clamp fixes the RTLC20-S scale rigidly to the substrate at the location chosen. CAUTION: The metrology of the system may be compromised if the datum clamp is not used. The datum clamp does not need to be fitted adjacent to a reference mark. It can be positioned anywhere along the axis depending upon the customers’ requirements. 1. Remove the backing paper from the datum clamp. 2. Place the datum clamp with cut-out against the scale at the chosen location.
3. Place a small amount of adhesive (Loctite® 435TM) in the cut-out on the datum clamp, ensuring none of the adhesive wicks onto the scale surface. Dispensing tips for the adhesive are available.

Gap
NOTE: There will be a gap between the end of the scale and the adhesive tape on the end cover.

Ensure the adhesive wicks along the entire length of the cut-out.

Reference mark selector and limit magnet installation

IMPORTANT: Allow 24 hours after the scale application before fitting the magnets.

For accuracy and ease of positioning of the reference mark selector and limit magnets, the applicator tool should be used. The magnet should be attached to the applicator tool as shown. Limit magnets can be positioned at any user defined location along the scale, but the reference mark selector magnet should be positioned adjacent to the selected IN-TRAC reference mark as shown.
As the TONiC FS readhead passes the reference mark selector magnet or limit switch magnet, a force of up to 0.2 N is generated between the magnet and the concentrators on the readhead. The design of the bracket should be sufficiently stiff so that it is able to tolerate such force without distorting.
Following the datum clamping instructions will prevent this magnetic force from disturbing the scale (see Fitting the datum clamp’ on page 30). Limit trigger point The limit output is nominally asserted when the readhead limit switch sensor passes the limit magnet leading edge, but can trigger up to 3 mm before that edge (seeRTLC20-S scale installation drawing’ on page 26).

NOTES:
· The reference and limit magnets may creep when influenced by magnetic materials in close proximity. In such cases, they should be held in place using an additional fillet of epoxy glue or similar along the outer edge of the magnet assembly. Optional bolted reference and limit magnets are available (see RTLC20-S scale installation drawing’ on page 26). · The reference mark selector and limit actuator locations are correct for the readhead orientation shown. · The reference mark selector magnet is only required forCustomer selectable reference mark’ readheads. For more information refer to TONiCTM FS encoder system data sheet (Renishaw part no. L-9517-9878).
· External magnetic fields greater than 6 mT, in the vicinity of the readhead, may cause false activation of the limit and reference sensors.

TONiC quick-start guide
This section is a quick-start guide to installing a TONiC FS system. More detailed information on installing the system is contained on page 33 to page 41 of this installation guide.

INSTALLATION
Ensure the scale, readhead optical window and mounting faces are clean and free from obstructions.

If required, ensure reference mark selector magnet is correctly positioned (see `RTLC20-S scale installation drawing’ on page 26).

Plug the readhead cable into the Ti/DOP interface under the cover plate and reassemble the interface (see System connection – Ti interface’ on page 34 or System connection – DOP
interface’ on page 36). Connect to the receiving electronics and power-up.

Ensure that Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is switched off; the CAL LED on the readhead should be off (if not, press and hold the CAL button on the interface until the CAL LED on the readhead
switches off).

Install and align the readhead to maximise signal strength over the full axis of travel as indicated by the readhead and interface set-up LEDs (readhead ­ green; DOP interface ­ ideally blue/purple).

CALIBRATION
Press and release the CAL button on the interface. The CAL LED on the readhead will be single flashing.

Move the readhead at slow speed (< 100 mm/s), without passing a reference mark, until the CAL LED starts double-flashing.

No reference mark
If a reference mark is not being used, the calibration routine should now be exited
by pressing and releasing the CAL button. The CAL LED will stop flashing.

Reference mark
Move the readhead back and forth over the reference mark until the CAL LED stops
flashing and remains `off’.

The system is now calibrated and ready for use. For the safety function to be valid, customer commissioning tests must be performed:
see Commissioning test’ on page 14. AGC can now be switched on if required by pressing and holding the CAL button until the CAL LED on the readhead switches on. Calibration (CAL) values and AGC status are stored in readhead non-volatile memory at power down. NOTE: If calibration fails, restore factory defaults (seeRestoring factory defaults’ on page 41). Then repeat the installation and calibration routine.

Readhead set-up
Ensure that the scale, readhead optical window and mounting face are clean and free from obstructions.
NOTE: When cleaning the readhead and the scale apply the cleaning fluid sparingly, do not soak.
To set the nominal rideheight, place the green spacer with the aperture under the optical centre of the readhead to allow normal LED function during set-up procedure. Adjust the readhead to maximise the signal strength along the full axis of travel to achieve a green set-up LED on the readhead (> 70% signal). If a DOP interface is used, aim for a blue LED on the interface.
NOTE: The readhead should be installed and set-up with the Automatic Gain Control (AGC) switched off (CAL LED off). When reinstalling the readhead the factory defaults should be restored (see `Restoring factory defaults’ on page 41).

System calibration
Calibration is an essential operation that completes readhead set-up, with the optimum incremental and reference mark signal settings stored in the readhead’s non-volatile memory.
Before system calibration:
1. Ensure the scale and readhead optical window are clean (contamination around the reference mark may result in reference mark dephasing).
2. If reinstalling, restore factory defaults (see Restoring factory defaults’ on page 41). 3\. Ensure Automatic Gain Control is switched off (CAL LED on readhead is not illuminated) before beginning calibration (seeSwitching Automatic Gain Control (AGC) on or off’ on page 41).
4. Ensure signal strength has been optimised along the full axis of travel; the readhead LED will be green.
NOTE: CAL routine maximum speed: < 100 mm/s or less than the readhead maximum speed, whichever is slowest.

Incremental signal calibration
1. Press and release the CAL button on the end of the interface (for < 2 seconds) using a 2 mm allen key or similar tool.
WARNING: Activating the CAL switch only requires 2.5 N force. Applying excess force may permanently damage the switch.

Ti interface

DOP interface

2. The CAL LED will now periodically single-flash to indicate that it is in incremental signal calibration mode.
3. Move the readhead along the axis, ensuring you do not pass the reference mark until the CAL LED starts double-flashing. This indicates the incremental signal is now calibrated and the new settings are stored in the readhead memory.
4. The system is now ready for reference mark phasing.
5. For systems without a reference mark, go to Calibration routine ­ manual exit’ on page 41. 6\. If the system does not automatically enter the reference mark phasing stage (no double-flashing of the CAL LED) the calibration of the incremental signals has failed. After ensuring failure is not due to overspeed, exit the calibration routine, restore factory defaults (seeRestoring factory defaults’ on page 41) and check the readhead installation and system cleanliness before repeating the calibration routine.

TONiCTM FS RTLC20-S Functional Safety installation guide and safety manual

Original instructions

Reference mark phasing
1. Move the readhead back and forth over the selected reference mark until the CAL LED stops flashing and remains off. The reference mark is now phased.
2. The system automatically exits the CAL routine and is ready for operation.
3. For the safety function to be valid, customer commissioning tests must be performed: see `Commissioning test’ on page 14.
4. If the CAL LED continues double-flashing after passing the chosen reference mark many times, it is not detecting the reference mark. Ensure that the correct readhead configuration is being used. Readheads can either output all reference marks or only output a reference mark where a reference selector magnet is fitted depending on the options chosen when ordering.
NOTE: The LED on the interface will flash blank when the reference mark is detected (> 100 mm/s only). It indicates the presence of a reference mark, not the phasing status.

Calibration routine ­ manual exit

1. To exit the calibration routine at any stage press the CAL button. The CAL LED will stop flashing.
2. For the safety function to be valid, customer commissioning tests must be performed: see `Commissioning test’ on page 14.

Restoring factory defaults
When realigning the readhead, reinstalling the system, or in the case of continued calibration failure, factory defaults must be restored.
To restore factory defaults:
1. Switch system off.
2. Press and hold the CAL button whilst switching the system on. The CAL LED on the readhead will flash several times, indicating that the factory defaults have been restored.
3. Release the CAL button.
4. Check the Readhead mounting and alignment’ on page 37 and recalibrate the system (seeSystem calibration’ on page 40). NOTE: System must be recalibrated after restoring factory defaults.
Switching Automatic Gain Control (AGC) on or off
The AGC can be switched on or off via the interface. Press and hold the CAL button on the interface for > 3 seconds to switch AGC on or off. The CAL LED on the readhead will be illuminated when AGC is active.
NOTE: The system must be calibrated before switching AGC on (see `System calibration’ on page 41).
