air to flow without material. They use this air to blow off or
feather the part. The software would normally sense this
air flow without material flow and then fault the GUN. This
parameter allows the painter a preset number of seconds
of blow off time before faulting. This parameter is specified
in seconds, and the default is 5 seconds. A setting of zero
(0) disables the no master flow fault.
Change Password (F3)
Used in conjunction with the Password Timer parameter.
The operator can change the password if the previous
password is known. The password is required for editing
or setting all data tables and configuration parameters. A
password of '0' will disable password operation.
Password Timeout
Once a valid password has been entered, this parameter
sets the amount of time (in min) which is allowed from the
last keystroke until password operation is stopped. Once
the timer has expired, the user will be prompted for the
password again if password protected settings are to be
edited.
RIO Rack Address, Rack Size, Starting
Quarter, and Baud Rate
Displays the RIO communication parameters, as decoded
from the Interface Module DIP SW1 and SW2 settings.
SIO Baud Rate and COM Port
Displays the SIO communication baud rate, as decoded from
the Interface Module DIP SW1 and SW2 settings, and the
COM port (COM1 or COM2), as defined in the GO.INI file.
Channel Module Firmware Revision(s)
Displays the firmware revision for the installed Channel
Modules.
Interface Module Firmware Revision
Displays the firmware revision for the Interface Module.
User Interface Revision
Displays the current version of the user-interface software
running on the user-interface PC.
CONFIG GUN (F2)
GUN Configuration Parameters should
not
be edited while
the GUN is running. This includes all operational modes.
System Time and Date
Displays the current date and time and permits changing
the same.
Language
This allows users to select between English and one Al-
ternate Language. The alternate language text is stored
on the flash drive or hard drive of the PC in files named:
- Mode
This parameter has three possible settings: OFF, AUTO,
and MANUAL.
OFF -
This setting completely disables the gun,
removes its data from the main screen, and places the
channels tied to the gun available for use by another gun.
AUTO -
This setting is used when the user wants to control
both the flow rate and the ratio (if it is a plural component
material) of the applicator.
MANUAL -
This setting is used when the user wishes only
to control the ratio of the material. Users can 'demand' as
much material as they wish and the controller will deliver
as much as possible while keeping the ratio on target.
NOTE
Any modifications to the GUN Configuration Pa-
rameters screen data are saved only when the oper-
ator presses the "Store Data" key (F5), otherwise the
modifications will be lost when the screen is exited
with the escape (ESC) key.

Module.
Interface Module DIP SW1 and SW2 Settings
Displays the DIP SW1 and SW2 settings for the Interface
Module.
- Number of Channels
This parameter has three possible settings: 0, 1, and 2.
0
- This, effectively, disables the gun.
1
- This indicates that the gun is to be a single channel,
flow control only applicator.
2
- This indicates that the gun is to be configured as a
dual-channel, ratio controlled applicator.
