Appendix C – Reporting Downtime and Scrap to SFC 259
Forced Error Dialog Mode
The Dialog Menu can also be programmed to display whenever the press is stopped due to a
SmartPAC PRO-generated fault. This feature, called Forced Error Dialog mode (see
Making
Downtime Reporting Settings, page 262 ) , allows the operator to add detail to a period of downtime
that is initially logged to a specific SmartPAC PRO error but may actually have a different cause.
For example, SmartPAC PRO may be set up to generate an “End of Stock” error whenever the press
runs out of material. This downtime reason is applied to the period of time during which a new coil is
located and brought to the press unless the operator selects a more appropriate downtime reason, such
as “Waiting for Coil,” and, using the backfill option (see
Backfilling vs. Forward Filling , page 256),
applies it to the incompletely documented period. When the downtime reason is backfilled (see
Figure C - 3 for a schematic time line), SmartPAC logs one second to the initial error (e.g., “Sensor
5–End of Stock”), assuring that the fault is documented, and the remaining time to the new downtime
reason (e.g., “Waiting for Coil”).
Figure C - 3. Forced Error Dialog Mode Time Line
Downtime reasons can also be “forward filled” in Forced Error Dialog mode.
As in Forced Idle Dialog mode, the Forced Dialog message can be programmed to display a specified
number of minutes after the press stops (see Figure F-3). This Error Dialog Time setting prevents
nuisance faults such as “Counter preset reached” from being reported as downtime.
