• Tread Roller Installation
In order to thread the belt through the conveyor, some of the tread rollers were
removed. Reinstall all tread rollers that may have been removed.
To drive the end rollers, they are connected with "O"-Rings as shown in Figure 7C.
Note that the four end rollers have two grooves.
Only trained personnel should track conveyor belt which must be done while con-
veyor is in operation. All guards should be in place while tracking conveyor belt
NOTE: In all conditions, you are viewing the Conveyor Belt from the INFEED
end. All corrections will be made from the INFEED end of conveyor.
• Sequence of Operation
The Model ABEZ is made up of a series of accumulation zones, each zone
having an EZLogic® zone controller, a pressure frame to apply and remove
drive, and a pneumatically operated brake which stops four tread rollers.
LOADING THE CONVEYOR (Figure 7D)
1. Beginning with the conveyor "empty," and the zone stop signal to the dis-
charge controller "active," a load placed on the conveyor continues forward
until it reaches the discharge zone (Zone #1).
If two or more loads are placed on the conveyor with a space of less than one
zone length between them, the loads will singulate (separate) during the first
few feet of travel on the conveyor, until a space approximately equal to one
zone length exists between all loads.
2. When load #1 activates controller "A", Zone #1 stops driving. A signal is
sent to Zone #2 indicating that Zone #1 is occupied (Figure 7D).
3. When load #2 activates controller "B", Zone #2 stops driving. A signal is
sent to Zone #3 indicating that Zone #2 is occupied.
4. The above sequences are repeated until the conveyor is fully loaded.
UNLOADING THE CONVEYOR
1. Releasing load #1 is accomplished by "de-activating" the zone stop signal
to the discharge zone (Refer to the "Zone Stop Connections" section on page
23). This restores power to the tread rollers in zone #1. Load #1 will then
move forward, causing a gap between itself and load #2 (Figure 7E).
2. When load #1 clears controller "A", load #2 will then move forward, creating
a gap between itself and load #3.
3. This sequence will continue as long as the preceding load continues to
move forward.
• EZLogic® System

The Model ABEZ is equipped with the EZLogic
following basic information may be used as a guide during the installation
and initial setup of the conveyor. For detailed information about EZLogic
system components, options, functions, and programming, please refer to the
EZLogic
Generation 3 Component Manual.
®
Each EZLogic
zone controller is equipped with sealed connectors for zone-
®
to-zone communication, solenoid output, and zone stop connections (Figure
8B). These connections are described in the following sections.
ZONE CONNECTIONS
Each zone has a cordset terminated with a female micro-connector and a
male micro-connector. This cordset provides power to all the controllers on
the conveyor as well as communication between controllers (Figure. 8A).
All controllers are mounted and connected at the factory within each con-
veyor section. Connections between sections are made at installation. (See
Conveyor Set-Up, page 4). The cordset from one controller is always con-
nected to the cordset on the upstream side of it. This is the way the control-
lers know which direction product is flowing.
The cordset on the infeed end of the conveyor is simply bundled and tied in the

accumulation channel and is not connected. The infeed cordset may be
replaced with an infeed zone terminator (P/N 032.550). Protective caps are
provided to seal unused connectors.
An optional conveyor-to-conveyor connector is required when two conveyors
are joined end-to-end. Please refer to the EZLogic
®
Manual for more information.
SOLENOID CONNECTIONS
Each zone controller has a built-in cable to provide a zone drive/no drive
output to the solenoid air valve operating the zone. This cable is terminated
with a female Pico-style sealed snap-lock connector. Connection is made by
pushing the cable connector onto the corresponding male connector of the
valve until it snaps in.
Please note that this output is only to be used to operate the zone mecha-
nism of the conveyor. It is not to be used as an output signal to other control
devices. If a control output is needed, an optional auxiliary module with
I/O should be used. Please refer to the EZLogic
Manual for more information.
AUXILIARY CONNECTIONS
Every EZLogic
zone controller is equipped with an auxiliary port. This con-
®
nector can be used to accept either a zone stop signal, a slug input signal,
