Automation Interface 165
Pin 8 (IN) Pad safety
The activation of the input and the desired switching behavior must be set in the menu.
See Chapter
26.7.1 "Pad safety" on page 131 .
The pad safety signal must be present at the input before the pad moves towards the
workpiece. Otherwise, the print cycle will be interrupted and will only continue when the
signal is present.
IMPORTANT! The movement sequence of all components must be coordinated in such a
manner that an interruption to the print cycle will only take place in the event of an error.
An interruption during each print cycle places a lot of strain on the drives and the mecha-
nics and should be avoided at all costs.
Pins 10 and 11 (IN) Light curtain insertion area
Two-channel safety loop for the connection of a light curtain for the insertion area. See
also Chapter
31.7 "Definition of safety zones" on page 171 .
The START via light curtain function in automatic mode is only possible with this light
curtain. See Chapter 24.2 "Starting a print cycle" on page 118 .
If the signals are not used, both inputs must be connected with 24 V DC (pin 15).
If two-hand operation is used as a safety guard, the circuit of the automation interface will
change.
See Chapter
31.8 "Safety guard – two-hand operation" on page 173 .
Pin 12 (OUT) Palm function
The signal has a set switching behavior and cannot be adjusted.
A signal edge from LOW to HIGH at the
Pin 25 (IN) Palm switch alternately switches this
output to LOW or HIGH. The status of the output changes with every signal edge to pin 25.
When a print cycle is completed in the AUTOMATIC operation mode the signal is automa-
tically switched to LOW.
Pins 13 und 14 (OUT) Stoppage
The signals have a set switching behavior and cannot be adjusted.
Two-channel safety signal for the connection of external safety components.
The signals are switched to HIGH when the control unit is switched off or the control unit is
switched on and the machine is safely in the home position.
Pin 16 (IN) Automatic auxiliary signal
The activation of the input and the desired switching behavior must be set in the menu.
See Chapter
26.7.5 "Automatic auxiliary signal" on page 134 .
To start a print cycle in the AUTOMATIC operation mode the HIGH signal must be present.
Otherwise the start pulse will be ignored.
If the signal switches from HIGH to LOW during a print cycle, the print cycle will be conti-
nued and completed in full.
In all other operation modes the signal will be ignored.
With this signal the fixing of a workpiece can be monitored.
For example the position monitoring (end switch) of a clamping cylinder or a pressure con-
troller can be connected to monitor a vacuum.
