•
Sensor on–off.
Sensor inputs can be turned on or off at the keyboard. You turn a
sensor input on by selecting the type of sensor you want it to be—either red,
yellow or green. You turn a sensor off by naming it NOT USED. When you turn a
sensor input off that has been in use, the settings for that sensor are lost.
•
Lock settings .
You can lock settings so no one can change settings in Run mode.
This prevents anyone from changing settings without the Program/Run key. You
lock settings in Initialization mode.
•
Set timing for cam channels.
If the programmable cam switch option is installed,
you can set the on and off angle for each cam channel or set the on angle and time
in milliseconds you want the channel to be on. The channel will close the circuit
to the device it is connected to for that angle of the stroke (or for the time set).
You can activate your feed pilot release, assembly operations, air cylinders,
transfer devices, lubricators, air blow off, cut off, loader/unloader controls and
other equipment that requires precise timing with the press. As with sensors, you
can assign a name to each cam channel (pilot release, blowoff, etc.)
•
Load settings by tool number.
DiPro saves all sensor settings, counter settings,
and cam switch settings (if cam installed) in its electronic memory. The settings
are stored by tool number. To use the settings for a tool again, you recall them by
selecting the tool number from the tool number display. You never need to make
the same settings for a tool over again. You can save up to 200 tool numbers.
Settings are saved automatically as you make them. You do not have to tell DiPro
to save settings by pressing a key or issuing a command. When you load the
stored tool number, DiPro loads all the settings for the tool. DiPro retains all
settings for a tool even with power off. A lithium battery on the memory chip
supplies power and lasts for up to ten years.
•
Set good parts counter.
The good parts counter counts good parts while the press
is running. The counter will top stop the press (open the top stop relay) when the
count set is reached. The counter does not count strokes where a sensor signalled
a malfunction.
•
Set batch counter.
The batch counter top stops the press (opens the top stop
relay) when the preset count is reached. This counter is good for stopping the
press to change bins or chutes.
•
Set total hits counter.
This counter counts every stroke for the tool number
loaded. In other words, it keeps a running total of hits on the tool. It is useful to
determine when the tool needs regrinding. You can reset this counter after the tool
is reground to start the count again from 0.
•
Reset DiPro .
You reset the unit after DiPro stops the press when a sensor signals
a malfunction. DiPro gives you specific fault messages for a malfunction. It lists
the name of the sensor that signalled the malfunction, the type of fault, and the
angle of the stroke where the fault occurred. This makes it easy to troubleshoot.
See Chapter 7 for a complete list of fault messages.
