4.
Key in a value for the cam channel On time in milliseconds (maximum value, 9,999 mS,
or about 10 seconds), following the instructions in the window, then press ENTER. The
value you keyed in displays in the PULSE TIME (MSEC) column for the specified Batch
counter.
5.
Move the highlight bar to the INCREMENT MODE column, then press ENTER to toggle
between the STROKE and GOOD PARTS options until the setting you want is displayed.
6.
Repeat steps 2 through 5 for other Batch counters, as necessary.
7.
Press RESET to return to the Counters screen.
Setting Counter Increment Angle
The crankshaft angle at which counters are incremented is set at the factory to a default value
of 270
°
. This value is satisfactory for counting parts, but if you have programmed Batch
counter outputs to control automation, increment angles for those counters should be set to the
angle at which you want the automation to activate. The Counter Mode Selections screen
allows you to set a common increment angle for Strokes, Good Parts, and Batch 1 counters
and separate increment angles for Batch 2 and Batch 3 counters. To change default increment
angles, do the following:
1.
On the Counter Mode Selections screen, move the highlight bar to the increment angle
value for the counter you want to adjust (e.g., Batch 2), then press ENTER. The Numeric
Entry window (see Figure 5-3, page 5-3) displays.
2.
Key in a new increment angle value, following the directions in the window, then press
ENTER. The value you entered is displayed on the Counter Mode Selections screen.
3.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for other counters, as necessary.
Setting Parts per Stroke or Strokes per Part
SmartPAC 2 allows you to control how the Strokes and Good Parts counters increment in
relation to each other. You can specify the number of parts made during each stroke, in which
case the Good Parts counter will increment in multiple units (e.g., 2, 3, etc.) for each
increment of the Strokes counter. This setting is useful in multiple-up die applications.
Conversely, you can specify the number of strokes required to make each part, causing the
Good Parts counter to increment only once for multiple increments (e.g., 2, 3, etc.) of the
Strokes counter. This setting is useful in die applications with a gagged cutoff.
To set the number of parts made per stroke or number of strokes required to make a part, do
the following:
1.
On the Counter Mode Selections screen, press F2 (Advanced Modes). The Advanced
Counter Mode Selections screen, shown in Figure 5-15, page 5-15, displays.
