Production Counters (continued)
Batch Counters 1, 2, 3
These counters track the number of part cycles for the running program. One output can be associated with
each counter. The counter can be programmed to increment on each cycle, or only on cycles that do not have
a die protection fault.
Each Batch Counter has a Counter Limit Value parameter associated with it. The Counter Limit Value param-
eter has a range of 0 to 999,999,999. Any one of the sixteen outputs can also be associated with this counter
as the
Counter Overflow Output . This output can be programmed to turn on when the programmed count
limit is reached, toggle state when the limit is reached, or be enabled when the count equals the programmed
Counter Limit Value.
Good Part Counter
In press applications, the die protection functionality of the ANS1 allows you to determine when a bad part
has been made. The Good Part Counter is equivalent to the Part Cycle Counter, but only increments when a
die protection fault did not occur during the cycle.
This counter is a free running counter. It does not have a programmable limit value and an output cannot be
associated with it.
Machine Revolutions
This counter tracks the number of revolutions the machine has made while running the active program. It
increments as the position passed through zero. This value can be preset to any value in its range and is stored
in non-volatile memory with the program’s parameters.
This counter is a free running counter. It does not have a programmable limit value and an output cannot be
associated with it.
Using Batch Counter Outputs
As stated above, the three batch counters, and the Part Cycle Counter, each have a Counter Limit Value
parameter associated with the counter. Additionally, any of the sixteen outputs can also be associated with a
counter as its Counter Overflow Output.
How the output reacts to the counter reaching its programmed Counter Overflow Output value depends on
any additional limit switch programming that may exist on the output.

If no additional limit switch programming data exists for the output, the output can be programmed to
be active when the counter value equals the programmed Counter Overflow Output value or change
state when the counter value equals the programmed Counter Overflow Output value.

If the output has limit switch programming data associated with it, (one or more setpoint pairs and or
programming for a timed output), then the output is enabled whenever the counter value equals the pro-
grammed Counter Overflow Output value. The output will follow its programmed setpoints only when
the counter value equals the programmed Counter Overflow Output value.
