Panel Operation
Auto Reverse / Auto Off Option
The CP600 Auto Reverse / Off option is designed for both End Tower and Pivot Point op-
eration. It uses the direction wires in the span cable to send a momentary pulse signal to
the main control panel.
The Auto Reverse Switch is located at the End Tower or Pivot Point and uses a Normally
Open contact to pulse the wire of the desired direction to actuate the relay in the main
panel. If the system is running in Forward and the direction switch is in the Auto position,
a pulse on the Reverse wire will change the direction of the machine. The logic is re-
versed for changing from Reverse to Forward.
Reference the following steps to assist you in the successful operation of this feature:
Auto Reverse Option:
1. Turn the Rev-Auto-Fwd switch (1) to the Auto position.
2. Turn the Stop-Run-Start switch (3) to the Start position.
When the machine is started with the Start switch (item 3) it should run in the direction
that it was last running. If the opposite direction is desired, start the system with the
switch in the desired direction, then move it back to Auto.
Auto Off Function:
The Auto Off function is a built-in feature of the Auto Reverse option. To operate the Auto
Off function:
1. Place the Rev-Auto-Fwd switch in the desired direction of travel of the machine.
2. Turn the Stop-Run-Start switch (3) to the Start position.
When the Auto Reverse switch is operated at either the barricade or pivot point, the ma-
chine will shut down. To restart the machine:
1. Return the Rev-Auto-Fwd switch to either the Auto position or the new direction.
2. Turn the Stop-Run-Start switch to Start position.
