LC-1000 Lube System Controller

OPERATION

When power is applied, the green “POWER LED”lights and the LC-1000 counts down alternately from the programmed “OFF/ON” Times/Counts to zero.

In the “ON” (Monitor) mode, the ” PUMP LED” lights. The pump is activated and both the “ON and “RUN” icons are displayed. If the programmed number of cycle switch transitions (1/2 cycles) are received be- fore expiration of the “ON” (Monitor) period, the PUMP OUTPUT, “PUMP” LED, “ON” and “RUN” icons turn off and the “OFF” icon will display. If the programmed number of cycle switch transitions (1/2 cycles) are not received before expiration of the “ON” (Monitor) period, a “Fault” will be registered. This suspends pump operation, turns off the ” PUMP” LED, the “ON and “RUN” icons, turns on the red “FAULT” LED and closes the fault output contacts.

If a pulsed output to the pump is required, a “PUMP ON” time may be programmed from 0 to 99 seconds. Setting this value to zero will provide a steady state output. “PUMP OFF” is fixed at 3 seconds.

The “RUN” icon will display anytime the pump out- put is energized. During pulsed pump operation, the “RUN” icon will flash on and off in sequence with the pump. During continuous running, the “RUN” icon will not flash.

The Controller is programmed to retain the Time/Count in memory when power is turned off. This feature pre- vents excessive lubrication in start/stop applications and retains information for cycle to be completed when power is restored.

CHANGING SETTINGS

From the Timer display mode, pressing the “PRGM” button will allow you to review or change between the set “ON” (Monitor), “OFF”, “CYCLE, “PUMP” (Pulsed On Time) and “DISPLAY” modes. When in the pro- gramming mode, the icons/digits will blink. When in the display mode, the icons/digits do not blink.

d)Press “ENTER” to accept the time base or the S key to scroll through the timing choices.

e)Press “ENTER” to complete the process (Note: Monitor period is normally set 2 times the actual time required for the pump to satisfy the system cycle requirements).

2.The “OFF” icon will now be blinking.

a)Repeat above process until all “OFF”

options have been programmed.

b)Press “ENTER” to accept the new values.

3.The “CYCLE” icon will now be blinking

a)Press “ENTER” and the cycle value

(1/2 cycles) will blink.

b)Using the S and X keys set the cycle value as follows:

c) Press "ENTER" to accept the new values.

NOTE: In the Recycle mode, PUMP “OFF” time is fixed at 3 seconds. Press “ENTER” to register the new value and return to the “DISPLAY” mode.

NOTE: Scrolling through the modes using the“PRGM” key only will allow the review of the current settings without changing any of the values or timing. It is recommended that programming not be attempted while a lube cycle is in process. After making any change in settings, activate a manual run to initiate the change.

NOTE: Programming examples for specific types of systems are shown on pages 5, 6 and 7.

MANUAL RUN / RESET

A manual-run lubrication cycle may be initiated by pressing the manual run button, located on the left underside of the unit, OR by shorting terminals 14 and 15 together, such as with a remote push-button momentary switch. Manual run may also be initiated by pressing S and "ENTER" keys together. Manul run is also used to reset the controlelr and to clear faults.
