TROUBLESHOOTING
RETRACT LIMITATION AND JOGGING
Retract Block
The GC32FLEX TSI inhibits any crimp input for 10
seconds after setpoint is reached. This period is
indicated via the Retract LED on the front panel, the
Crimp button on the Crimp interface also turns Grey
during this interval.
Jogging Function
Jogging is enabled all the way up to setpoint. The
control system has the ability to ramp up and ramp
down when a crimp is activated and deactivated.
Quick Release
The Quick Release button reverses the motor
and pump at slow speed for 2 seconds. On rare
occasions the Spring-loaded Dump valve in the
manifold may not fully open due to residual
pressure gradients. You may notice this if the
crimp head closes and is unusually slow to retract.
Pressing Quick release will reverse the pump and
create a small negative pressure in the manifold.
The aim is to neutralise any pressure gradients and
allow the Valve to open fully.
!
Momentum can be lost in the crimp which
can cause inconsistency in the final COD.
For a consistent final COD it is advised
to limit jogging and crimp in one full
movement.
