7. Functions
7.1 On-time limiter
The electronic system monitors how long the table columns have been active. If the maximum permissible time is
exceeded, the electronics will not permit any further movement in the table columns. This protects the power pack, control
system and drives against overload.
7.2 Safety range
A certain section of the table columns (a few cm before the lower stop position) is referred to as the safety range. When
the table columns reach this point, they stop. When the “DOWN” button is pressed again, they continue moving down,
but at a reduced speed. If the table columns are to be lowered when they are already within the safety range, and were
previously being moved upwards, the “DOWN” button will need to be pressed twice.
7.3 Overload detection
The control system detects an excessive load (weight) on the construction and switches off. The table columns are oper-
ated at reduced speed briefly after they are started/before they are stopped.
7.4 Soft start/soft stop
The drives are operated at reduced speed briefly after they are started/before they are stopped.
7.5 Movement lock
When the movement lock is engaged, the table columns cannot be moved, thereby preventing uncontrolled move-
ment of the construction.
Press the “M” button for 10 seconds to engage or disengage the movement lock.
7.6 Memory function
Additional memory function for the storage of height settings and for moving the table to these heights.
1. Manually adjusting the table height.
2. Storing a height setting (memory)
The control system can store three standard positions.Press the “M” button three times to access memory mode.
Within 5 seconds, press one of the three buttons M1, M2 and M3 to store the height position currently set.
The control system issues an audible signal to confirm that the setting has been stored in the memory.
7.6.1 Moving the table columns to stored heights
Hold down one of the three buttons M1, M2 and M3 until the corresponding position is reached.
