7.10. Analogue Scaling
Page 7 of 16
7.10.1. To access Analogue Scaling use the Technical Password. Refer to Section 7.8.9
7.10.2. Explaining analogue scaling: PLC 4-20mA Analogue signals are interpolated from 4-20mA
to 0-32767(15Bits) this is called signal resolution. The more bits the more resolution or
accuracy. For the PLC to display this value in a sensible format the input is interpolated
again in the software between a set Min and Max.
7.10.3. For example the pressure transducer is rated 0-400Bar (0-40MPa) so Min = 0 and Max =
400. Thus 0-32767 will be interpolated to 0-400Bar (0-40MPa) to display correct units.
7.10.4. Cylinder Position – this is determined by measuring the stroke of the cylinder with tape
measure from where machine bottoms out to where the machine stops at top. For example
at bottom position Min = 0mm and at top position Max = 2500mm.
7.10.5. MAC Pressure – Check rating on pressure transducer and ensure transducer and setting is
identical. If rating is in MPa x 10 to get units in bar. Default Min = 0 Bar and Max = 400 Bar.
7.10.6. MBC Pressure – Check rating on pressure transducer and ensure transducer and setting is
identical. If rating is in MPa x 10 to get units in bar. Default Min = 0 Bar and Max = 400 Bar.
7.10.7. Hydraulic Oil Level – This can work on a % scale 0% being empty and 100% being full.
Default Min = 0% and Max = 100%.
7.10.8. Pump Pressure – Check rating on pressure transducer and ensure transducer and setting
is identical. If rating is in MPa x 10 to get units in bar. Default Min = 0 Bar and Max = 400
Bar.
7.10.9. Lube Flow – Lube flow is determined by using pressure. Using a flow meter causes
irregularities with flow feedback due to the viscosity of the oil when heated and cooled
during lubrication cycles. Check rating on pressure transducer and ensure transducer and
Page 8 of 16
setting is identical. If rating is in MPa x 10 to get units in bar. Default Min = 0.0 Bar and Max
= 20.0 Bar.
7.10.10. Lube Pressure – Lube pressure is the suction pressure on the lube filter and thus min and
max is set inverted. Check rating on pressure transducer and ensure transducer and
setting is identical. If rating is in MPa x 10 to get units in bar. Default Min = -3.0 Bar and
Max = 0.0 Bar.
7.10.11. Case Drain – Check rating on flow meter and ensure flow meter rating and setting is
identical. Default Min = 0 l/min and Max = 36 l/min.
7.10.12. Pump Delivery - Check rating on flow meter and ensure flow meter rating and setting is
identical. Default Min = 0 l/min and Max = 36 l/min.
7.10.13. Water Flow – Water flow meters are usually rated as cm3 if rated in l/min the rating can be
entered as l/min directly. To convert cm3 to l/min (l/min = cm3 * 1000 / 60). Default Min = 0
l/min and Max = 2666 l/min.
7.10.14. Water Pressure - Check rating on pressure transducer and ensure transducer and setting
is identical. If rating is in MPa x 10 to get units in bar. Default Min = 0 Bar and Max = 20
Bar.
7.10.15. Rod Feed Applicator - Check rating on pressure transducer and ensure transducer and
setting is identical. If rating is in MPa x 10 to get units in bar. Default Min = 0 Bar and Max =
400 Bar.

7.11. Machine Setup

7.11.1. To access Analogue Scaling use the Technical Password. Refer to Section 7.8.9
7.11.2. Machine setup parameters are important to the function of the machine and needs to be
set up correctly.
7.11.3. Cylinder Bore Size – Enter correct size in mm (mm = Bore in Inches x 25.4) for example 10
Inch bore size will be 254mm.
7.11.4. Cylinder Rod Size – Enter correct size in mm (mm = Rod in Inches x 25.4) for example 6
Inch rod size will be 152mm.
7.11.5. Cylinder Quantity – Count amount of cylinders and enter amount.
7.11.6. Cylinder Max Pressure – Set as per maximum working pressure of cylinder. Default 400
Bar.
7.11.7. Rod Insert Height Limit - Lift machine to maximum height, insert a rod into the rod loader
and move into machine. Lower the machine to 200 mm above rod and enter current
cylinder position as rod insert height limit.
7.11.8. Slow Up/Down Pressure Set – This controls the maximum pressure for slow up and down
manual functions. This does not apply to piloting, reaming, gear shift or pipe loader. For
short holes 150 Bar can be used for longer holes set to 180 Bar.
7.11.9. Pilot Pump Pressure Set – This controls the maximum pressure for piloting on a scale
between 0% and 100%. Setting is dependent on machine. To determine correct amount
adjust % until pump pressure feedback reads between 25 and 30 bar.
7.11.10. Pipe Loader Pressure Set Point – On smaller machines and rod loaders 150 Bar is
sufficient for larger rod loaders and rod lengths of 3 meter set to 180 Bar.
Page 10 of 16
7.11.11. Lubrication Flow Trip Set – Set to 0 and run lubrication system. Monitor lubrication flow
feedback and set trip level just below average.
7.11.12. Gear Shift Pressure Set – This is the pressure applied to the gear shift cylinders to change
gears. Set to 50 Bar.
7.11.13. Make Up/Break Out Max Chuck Speed – This is the limit in chuck rpm for make-up and
break out. Default 5.0RPM
7.11.14. Torque Stall Ramp Time – This is dependent on the length of hole. For longer holes
increase for shorter hole decrease. Always keep range between 70 and 100 Sec
depending on length of hole. Default is 80 Sec. Explaining Torque Stall Ramp Time: The
seconds are not clock seconds but PLC seconds. Once the machine is stalled the software
will count the set amount of PLC seconds and decrease the torque with 1% at a time until
torque reaches 0%. One PLC scan is 5ms so 80 PLC Sec will be (5 x 80 = 400ms) thus
every 400ms the torque will decrease with 1%. So the higher the torque limit the longer it
will take to ramp down which is the best way to remove inertia in string. Example: Torque
Stall Ramp Time is set to 90 Sec Torque limit is set to 72% it will take the machine 32
Clock Seconds to ramp down to zero (5ms x 90PLCSec x 72% Torque = 32400ms)
(32400ms / 1000 = 32 Seconds)
7.11.15. Stall Timer - This is a buffer time to delay stall condition and allow machine to recover if
possible. This setting is for Piloting, Reaming and Break Out. Default is 9 Sec. Explaining
Stall Timer: The 9 Sec is 9 PLC counts. One PLC count will be achieved by the Torque
Stall Ramp Time. So if Torque Stall Ramp Time is set to 80 Sec and a PLC scan is 5ms it
will take 400ms for one PLC count (80 x 5 = 400). So 9 Sec Stall Timer will be (9Sec x
400ms = 3600ms). So this will give a 3.6 Clock Second buffer before machine will apply
stall condition.
7.11.16. Make Up Stall Timer - This is a buffer time to delay stall condition and allow machine to
recover if possible. This setting is Make Up. Default is 8 Sec. Explaining Stall Timer: The 8
Sec is 8 PLC counts. One PLC count will be achieved by the Torque Stall Ramp Time. So if
Torque Stall Ramp Time is set to 80 Sec and a PLC scan is 5ms it will take 400ms for one
PLC count (80 x 5 = 400). So 8 Sec Stall Timer will be (8Sec x 400ms = 3200ms). So this
will give a 3.2 Clock Second buffer before machine will apply stall condition.
7.11.17. Pre-set Torque – This is the torque used during thread feed to detect rod shoulders and
ensure rods are fully fed in. This allows for easier rod handling when pulling rods. Also
prevents rods from being over torqued when at speeds higher than 1.5 chuck rpm. See
point 7.10.18. Default one motor 50KNm and two motors 70KNm.
7.11.18. Gear Ratio’s – This parameter has two functions and is critical to the machine operation.
The first function is to determine the correct motor speed to turn at when selecting Chuck
RPM. If ratio is too high chuck will turn faster and if too low chuck will turn too slow. The
second function is to correctly calculate available torque of the machine. If ratio is too high
then rods will be under torqued if ratio is too low rods will be over torqued. See table for
correct gear ratios.

7.11.19. Motor Quantity Selection – Count the amount of main motors driving gearbox and select
appropriate amount of motors.
7.11.20. Machine Selection – The AC and DC machine has different components, functions and
feedbacks it is important to select the type of machine correctly. When referring to AC or
DC machine it does not imply to the incoming supply but rather to the type of main motor
VSD control. The drive will either control an AC main motor or DC main motor. Note: If AC
machine the main motor rated voltage must be entered into the adjacent input block in VAC
for example motor rated voltage is 415VAC enter the value of 415.
7.11.21. Machine Lift Interlock – The setting works in conjunction with the Rod Torque interlock. If
Rod is not torqued this interlock is enabled. This is the allowable weight in KN that can be
lifted in slow and fast. If this weight is exceeded up movement will be disabled. This is to
Page 12 of 16
prevent lifting rods out of spanner without being torqued. Default Slow Up Tolerance
750KN and Fast Up 1300KN. To set up correctly disconnect rod move machine in slow up
and use the average Advance Thrust + 25% then move machine in fast up and use the
average Advance Thrust + 25%.
7.12. Manual Override
7.12.1. To access Manual Override use the Technical Password. Refer to Section 7.8.9
7.12.2. Note: This page is mainly for commissioning purposes and should never be used to control
the system during drilling. For the system to work correctly and safely and for system fault
analysis and reporting it is important for these values to be displayed correctly.
7.12.3. Analogue Manual Set – Analogue will list the analogue signal that needs to be overwritten.
Range will display the limits in which the value to be overwritten can be set. This is derived
from analogue scaling. Set Point is the input field where a value within the Range can be
set.
7.12.4. Proportional Valves Manual Set – This can be used to test for leakages, faulty valves and
pressure transducer feedback. Drag the slider up and down to stroke the valves. Click on
Zero to reset valves to Neutral.
7.12.5. Machine Lift Interlock – For workshop commissioning lift interlock can be disabled.
7.12.6. Rod Torque Interlock – For workshop commissioning rod torque signal can be forced. This
will allow to run machine in for commissioning and thus be able to detect issues on
gearbox, motor, chuck etc.

7.14.4. Piloting Max Torque – Torque is the rotation force applied to the pilot bit in KNm. Default
40KNm. Can be increased as per machine drilling requirement up to 150KNm.
7.14.5. Piloting Max Rotation – This is the rotational speed of the chuck. Default 30.0 RPM.
7.14.6. Piloting Max Penetration – This is the cylinder feed rate in mm/min. Default 60mm/min.
7.14.7. Piloting Water Flow Set Point – This is the amount of water flow required for the job. If
water flow falls below this set point the machine will stop. Default 0.7m/sec. How to
Calculate:
• cm³ = Pump Capacity
• l/min = cm³ * 1000 / 60
• l/hour = l/min * 60
Page 15 of 16
• Area = (((Bit Size x 25.4)² x 3.14) – ((Rod Size x 25.4)² x 3.14) / 4)

• Flow m/sec = ((l/hour / (Area x 1000 * 3600)) / 1000)
7.14.8. Reaming Cutter Quantity – Count the amount of cutters on the reamer and enter the
quantity. It is important to have the correct amount entered else the thrust per cutter will be
incorrectly calculated causing excessive or too little thrust reducing cutter life time.
7.14.9. Reaming Cutter Max Load – This is the maximum allowed tons per cutter. Discuss with
contract manager. Default 16Tons.
7.14.10. Reaming Face Detection Force – This is only applicable to Semi-Auto reaming. It is the
force used to detect if reamer is pulling against face. Set this parameter to 50Tons.
7.14.11. Reaming Max Rotation – This is the maximum speed in RPM on chuck the machine is
allowed to turn. Larger reamers can be decreased to 4.0RPM smaller reamers 5.0RPM.
Discuss with contract manager.
7.14.12. Reaming Anti-Stall Set Point – This parameter assists with preventing machine from
stalling when reaming through different ground conditions. How it works is the thrust and
torque limits is interpolated to a scale of 0 to 100% which ever limit is reached as per this
set point will cause the thrust to be removed to prevent machine from stalling. Default is
90% on softer ground conditions reduce to 80%.
7.14.13. Reaming Water Pressure Minimum Set Point – This parameter sets the limit of water
pressure in the string. If water pressure falls below this set point the machine will stop. To
set up Pressurize the string and monitor pressure feedback average. Set parameter just
below average reading.
