4-18 Operation
Continuous, Foot Operation
Continuous, Foot operation can only be used with WPC 2000 systems running Two-hand/
One-hand/Foot firmware, equipped with a Mode Select key switch, and employing a Shadow
light curtain to guard the point of operation.
Option switch 3 settings, which govern Foot operation in Single-stroke (see page 4-15), do not
apply to Continuous, Foot operation.
To run the press in Continuous, Foot mode, do the following:
1.
With the Mode Select switch set to “FOOT,” press the Prior Act button on the Operator
Station, then, within 8 seconds, depress and hold the Foot Switch pedal. The ram will
complete the stroke and continue stroking until you release the Foot Switch, at which
point the press will return to Top-stop.
As long as the Foot Switch is depressed, the press will continue to stroke but will stop if
one of the following events occurs:
•
You press the Top Stop button
•
You press the Emergency Stop button
•
A system fault is detected
•
The light curtain is blocked during the non-muted portion of the stroke
INCORRECT INSTALLATION
You must install a Shadow light curtain correctly and connect it to WPC 2000 properly in order to
run the press in Continuous, Foot mode.
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
You must depress the Foot Switch within 8 seconds after you press the Prior Act button in order to
initiate Continuous mode operation. Otherwise, the press will not start. The Prior Act lamp
illuminates when you press the Prior Act button and turns off after 8 seconds.
If the press is Emergency-stopped, WPC 2000 automatically changes to Two-hand
Maintained Single-stroke mode and the Interrupted Stroke LED flashes. To clear the
Interrupted Stroke, press and hold both Run/Inch buttons on the Operator Station to
complete the stroke and return the ram to Top Stop.
