SENSOR ACTIVATION
REMOTE ACTUATION
The IT8000/IT7000 can be remote actuated with a foot pedal or palm buttons via the remote trigger 4 pin
connection on the side of the box. If using the Mencom yellow cable supplied with the controller, the brown to
white pin connection needs to be closed to activate the tool. The external trigger setting also needs to be
“On”
in Settings. (pg. 37) Contact BAND-IT IDEX for recommendations on remote triggers.
CUT-OFF SIGNAL
The IT8000/IT7000 can send
a “cut
-
off” signal similar to the IT6000
/IT1000. Instead of being triggered by the
pressure difference inside the tool, the controller will send the signal when a clamp has been installed and did
not fail any verification checks. A use case of this would be to count the number of clamps installed on an
assembly. The connector is located next to the remote actuation on the controller. If using the Mencom yellow
cable, measure the signal across the white and blue wires. Contact BAND-IT IDEX for recommendations on how
to setup the cut-off signal.
Note: the tangency sensor is only activated on metallic objects.
If installing on plastic or rubber, the sensor will need to be
disabled. (pg. 37)
To ensure proper sensor activation, the channel area where
the buckle is placed must be void of dimples and folds.
If using
a foil shield, it is recommended to have a 1”x1”
(25mmx25mm)
coined or stamped section without wrinkles where the buckle
will be placed. Note the location of the tangency sensor that is
activated by sensing the installation surface.
To verify the sensors are activating properly, the
Manual
screen
on the HMI has two indicators that light up when the buckle
and proximity sensors are activated. (pg. 35)
If the sensors are activated improperly without metal near the
sensors, first clean the sensors to ensure there are no metal
shavings interfering with the sensor. Then verify the sensor
location. They should be depressed .005-
.010” into the
tool
head.
If the sensors are still malfunctioning, verify the electrical
connections.
