•
Strokes counter: Counts the number of strokes made by the press during a job. When a user-
programmed preset value has been reached, SmartPAC PRO Servo top-stops the press and
displays a message (see
Counter Preset Reached Messages , page 187). The counter resets to zero
(0) when the message has been cleared.
•
Good Parts counter: Counts the number of strokes made by the press during a job unless a
tonnage monitor, die protection, or process monitor (i.e., ProPAC) fault occurs during a stroke.
SmartPAC PRO Servo top-stops the press and displays a message (see page 187) when the
programmed preset value has been reached. When the message has been cleared, the counter
resets to zero (0).
•
Total Hits counter: Counts the number of hits on the programmed tool during all jobs. The Total
Hits count is incremented by the Strokes counter whenever the tool is loaded. When the
programmed preset has been reached, a flashing message displays in the Status Box in Run mode.
This counter can be used to indicate when die maintenance is required.
•
Batch counters (3): Incremented by the Strokes or Good Parts counter, depending on the user-
programmed setting. Each batch counter can be set to initiate one of three actions when the
programmed preset is reached: Top Stop, Toggle, and Pulse.
When a Batch counter is set to TOP STOP, SmartPAC PRO Servo top-stops the press and
displays a message (page 187), as it does for Strokes and Good Parts counters. This setting is
useful when stopping the press to change bins or chutes before resuming production.
When a Batch counter is set to TOGGLE, SmartPAC PRO Servo switches the state of a
ProCamPAC output from Open to Closed or from Closed to Open. This option is useful for
activating a parts diverter. Each batch counter is assigned to a specific ProCamPAC channel:
Batch 1 to Channel 6,
Batch 2 to Channel 7, and Batch 3 to Channel 8. If you set a Batch counter to either TOGGLE or
PULSE, the ProCamPAC channel controlled by that counter is displayed on the Counters screen,
Figure 5-12.
When a Batch counter is set to PULSE, SmartPAC PRO Servo actuates a ProCamPAC output for
a specified length of time. The output On time must be specified when making a Pulse setting.
You can connect this output to any device that needs to be turned on once every fixed number of
strokes (i.e., the Batch counter setting).
Each batch counter is assigned to a specific ProCamPAC channel: Batch 1 to Channel 6, Batch 2
to Channel 7, and Batch 3 to Channel 8. If you set a Batch counter to either TOGGLE or PULSE,
the ProCamPAC channel controlled by that counter is displayed on the Counters screen, Figure
5-12.
The ram angle at which Strokes, Good Parts, Total Hits, and Batch counters is incremented can also
be programmed.
Setting Preset Values
Counter presets specify the count at which SmartPAC PRO Servo initiates one of three programmed
actions (i.e., Top-stop, Toggle, or Pulse). To enter counter presets, do the following:
1. On the Tool Program Menu, select COUNTERS to display the Counters screen.
