The SCU5 controller, for web guiding applications,
can be put into manual or automatic operation mode
by pressing this icon. The press of the icon will toggle
the controller between manual and automatic
operation. When the controller is connected to an
actuator and a web guiding system, the automatic
mode will move the web guide structure based on
the position of the web.
A few icons on the operator interface are enabled or
disabled as the web guide is switched between
manual and automatic mode based on the available
options in each mode. Figure on the right shows the
operator interface while the controller is in automatic
mode. The advanced setup and the find sensor buttons are disabled.
WARNING:
Changing from one mode to another can result in a change in the web guide position causing
process upsets. Caution must be exercised when changing the operating mode and should be done by
those who completely understand the consequence of this change.
WARNING:
No personnel should be manually handling the web guide or the material around the web guide
when the guide is in automatic operation. Failure to follow this warning could result in crushing of body
parts at pinch points around and within the web guiding system.
WARNING:
Care must be taken that only one person is working on the guide when it is in manual operation.
Failure to follow this warning could result in crushing of body parts at pinch points around and within the
web guiding system.
NOTE:
This functionality has no meaning for sensing applications. However, some custom applications with
custom firmware may use the functionality.
