IO Monitor Screen
This screen enables the digital inputs and outputs to be both monitored and forced (set).
The light next to each of the signals indicates whether the input is on or off. Due to the
high response speed of the welder, not all digital inputs may be displayed when operating
at maximum duty. If there is a problem with the inputs, then these should be forced on the
PLC and confirmed using this screen.
Outputs are only shown if the force output button is pressed. Pressing this button, asks
for a password to be entered, (user password) before the outputs can be tested. Pressing
the light next to the output, turns the output on and off. Grey indicates off, and red
indicates on.
When the force output light is on, then all welding is inhibited.
Show the status of the inputs on the 37
way IO connector.
Shows the status of the program select
bits, on the 15 way connector.
Exit to main
menu.
