Setup (operating mode 1)
Definition
The press will only move while the two-hand buttons are being pressed. This is
also the case when the ram is moving upward. The press automatically comes to a
standstill at the end of each stroke (TDC). The operating elements must be
deactivated before a new start can be initiated.
A triple-action stop during a single stroke is not required with this control unit since
the Setup operating mode reaches the same level of safety as, for example, the
single stroke mode.
Parameterization

Note on "Safe motion" parameterization

suitable safety measures must be effective for the specific machine when this
parameter is activated.
