WORKING MODE
The FAULT output in normal operating conditions supplies a positive output (max 2,5A).
In faulty conditions the FAULT output is turned off.
Connecting this signal to a system that puts the installation in safety conditions it is possible to stop the machine
operations in case of joystick fault.
The BYPASS output is turned on (positive output max 2,5 mA) every time the joystick is moved from the zero position.
When the joystick is released the output is turned off with a 0,4 seconds delay (programmable).
The red and the green LEDs under the joystick are used to show different working conditions.
In normal operating conditions, the red LED is used as a power supply LED; it is turned on when the power
supply is present.
Red LED is turned off for a little while when bypass output is turned on or off.
In case of faulty operations the two LEDs flash in various modes depending on the fault type:
RED LED
Two flash:
system turned on with the joystick not at zero position. Outputs will stay turned off. It is necessary
to turn off the joystick and turn it on again releasing the lever.
Four flash:
Internal error on the magnetic sensors (excessive signal difference between the two probes of
the same channel) or movement of the lever too fast. It remains blocked until it is turned off.
Five flash:
Internal error on the magnetic sensors or on the third axis input (signal out of range). It remains
blocked until it is turned off.
Seven flash:
Calibrating parameters not valid. It remains blocked until it is turned off.
GREEN LED
When you move the joystick, the green led is turned on proportional to the greater current supplied. If joystick
is not plugged or a wired is broken, the green LED will stay turned off because no current will be supplied.
RED and GREEN LED at the same time
One flash at second:
joystick has to be calibrated. Follow the appropriate procedure (reserved).
VIRTUAL CROSS
PWM outputs are turned on to regulate the current that flows in the load proportional to the movements of the
joystick. If you activate the "virtual cross" function, you will be able to move joystick in just one direction at a time:
the first manoeuvre done forbids all the other manoeuvres until the joystick will return at rest position.
Otherwise, if the "virtual cross" function is not activated, you will be able to do two manovreus at the same time,
by moving the joystick in diagonal direction.
The "virtual cross" fuction, if activated, is referred only to the two principal axis; the third axis, if present, will
continue to work indipendently to the two other axis.
