Screen Function
Definition
Setup ___
Displays the number corresponding to the current setup.
Selecting this will take you to the setup selection screen;
see also CHANGE SETUP and COPY SETUP
Single point calibration
Select to enter single point diameter sensor calibration
Smaller roll calibration
Select to enter diameter sensor calibration for the
smaller diameter of a two point calibration
Splice
Display indicates the present mode of operation is
"splicing"; see also SPLICE MULT___ and SPLICE
FEATURE
Splice feature
Toggle yes or no to activate this feature. When active, a
switch closure of TB4.8 and TB4.6 will signal CYGNUS
to enter SPLICE mode to manipulate the control output
during a zero-speed splicing operation. See also
SPLICE MULT ___
Splice input
Toggle to indicate if SPLICE operation will be triggered
from TB4.6 & TB4.8 or by Fieldbus communication. See
also FIELDBUS
Splice mult
Enter a value for the splice multiplier. This parameter
behaves much like the HOLD MULTIPLIER except that
it has acceleration and deceleration modifiers
Splice, Hld, Start, Stop
Select for configuration of the automatic mode special
condition options
Start
Display indicates the present mode of operation is
"starting"; activated when TB3.1 and TB3.2 are opened.
See also START TIME___SEC
Start time ___ sec
Enter a value based upon the amount of time it takes
your machine to ramp up from stopped to steady state
operation. If the tension spikes during this time, try
increasing this START TIME value
Stop
Display indicates the present mode of operation is
"machine stopping". This mode is initiated when TB3.1
and TB3.2 are closed. See also STOP TIME___SEC
and STOP MULT___
Stop mult
Enter a value that will dictate the control output during
STOP mode. CYGNUS will use the last control output
sent during RUN mode before the STOP signal is
received and multiply it by the value set here for the
duration of the STOP TIME. When the stop multiplier
value is correctly set, it will automatically boost output to
the braking device during stops to keep the tension
constant.
Stop time ___ sec
Enter a value based upon the amount of time it takes
your machine to ramp down from steady state operation
to a complete stop. When this time has expired,
CYGNUS will automatically proceed into HOLD mode
Store values
Select to enter the present tuning parameters as the
corresponding core or full roll values to be used during
GAIN SCHEDULING. If AUTO TUNED the tuning
measurements will also be stored.
