Manual racking is not unit-specific. Initial and final
positions are not required for operation, although
other settings such as torque limit, velocity and the
existence of an interlock are unit specific; therefore,
considerable caution is required when using
SmartRack™ MV in manual mode.
If selected from the Main Menu, the racking device
goes directly to the Manual Racking screen (Figure 28)
and applies power to the Motor Box.
Once the Motor Box is secured to the cell door, the
operator should take the hand-held Control Box and
move a distance away as defined by their local
procedures. At this point SmartRack™ MV is ready to
start Manual Racking. This setting utilizes the three
buttons to the lower left of the screen (Figure 29).
The IN button moves the unit towards the contacts and
the OUT button moves the unit towards the door. These
buttons must be pushed and held to produce motion.
Releasing the button will cause the unit to come to a
stop. The button with a picture of a pad lock toggles the
interlock. In an emergency situation, the red STOP
button can be pressed to send a stop command to the
servomotor and cut power to the Motor Box.
Indicator lights
While SmartRack™ MV is in operation, the indicator
light on the motor box will change from green to
yellow. When racking is complete the indicator light
will return to green. The indicator color significance is
listed in table 2.
Racking complete
When either Automatic or Manual Racking is complete,
press the BACK button to return to the main menu. From
here racking can be repeated using the process explained
earlier in this section. Otherwise, return the hand-held
control to its place on the cart and detach the Motor Box
from the door by twisting the rotary latches on both
sides. Return the Motor Box to its area on the cart and
follow the instructions in Section Storing the Device.
Always ensure that the unit is completely racked to
the desired position and that the interlock pin has
dropped into its slot in the racking screw, if applicable,
before continuing.
