PATTERN CONTROLLER STARBI
INTRODUCTION
2-3
Mods of operation
The pattern controller has two modes of operation:
Manual mode:
to enable purging, cleaning or depressurising of the installation
or for checking the correct operation of the applicators. The selected outputs
are activated by actuating the corresponding button. If the unit was working in
automatic mode, it will be stopped when entering the MANUAL MODE screen.
When leaving the manual mode, the unit changes to the STOPPED status for
safety reasons.
Automatic mode:
To execute application programs using patterns in the
different channels. It can be found in three different statuses: RUNNING,
READY or STOPPED.
STOPPED status_
Safety mode where all the outputs are inactive. The
unit starts in this mode; to change to RUNNING status (production), the
following conditions must be met:
- A product must have been selected.
- The unit must be enabled.
- It must be in temperature OK.
- It must have a minimum speed (in products by distances).
READY status_
Intermediate status. It is ready to execute the program
and will do so automatically if the following conditions are met:
- It is in temperature OK.
- It has a minimum speed (in products by distances).
In this status all the outputs are turned off.
RUNNING status_
Production mode. The pattern controller executes
the selected patterns of the product and where the outputs are
activated or deactivated according to the selected product. If the
temperature OK and minimum speed conditions (in products by
distances) are no longer fulfilled, it will change to the READY or
STOPPED status.
The unit always works in automatic mode except when the user enters the
screen in manual mode.
When in STOPPED or RUNNING, you can change to MANUAL by entering the
user manual on the screen.
Controller identification
When placing orders for replacement parts or requesting help from our
Technical Service, you should know the model and reference number of your
controller.
This and other technical information will be found on the identification plate
located on the side of the lower part of the controller.
