There are several parameters that must be configured in this screen. The editing cursor indicates which parameter is currently selected. Softkey 1 (the uppermost vertical softkey) will change its description based on the parameter and, when pressed, allows the currently selected parameter to be changed. The up and down arrow keys move the editing cursor from one parameter to another. See Appendix A for examples of setting up each kind of system. The features of this screen are:

Help

The “Help” box at the bottom of the screen changes depending on the parameter

 

that the editing cursor is currently on. It gives a short version of how the

 

parameter is used.

Air Slot

Corresponds to the physical slot number (AS1 in the example of Figure 4.2)

 

selected for configuration on the auto-setup card. AS5 and AS6 do not exist but

 

are reserved for future expansion. The “NEXT AIR SLOT” softkey will cycle

 

through the available slots in the system. Note that “AS7" is built in to the base

 

auto-setup board and is always installed.

Hardware Detected

For counterbalances and cushions this should be “Fill/Dump” (referring to the

 

control method for the board). For hydraulic overloads this should be “0-10Volt

 

Out”. If there is no board installed in that slot the board will be “None Detected”.

Air Pressure

Gives a readout of the current pressure detected by the pressure transducer based

 

on the transducer type selected. Note that when the transducer type is changed,

 

this pressure will also change even though the actual air pressure stays the same.

 

This value can not be changed by the user. It is reported in this screen for

 

convenience.

Name

Press the “CHANGE NAME” soft key repetitively to cycle through and select the

 

available names for the module in the slot which you are configuring (Counter-

 

Balance #1, Counter-Balance #2, Cushion #1, Cushion #2, Cushion #3, Cushion

 

#4, Hydraulic Overload, Not Configured). Stop when the desired name appears.

Mode

Use the “CHANGE MODE” soft key to cycle the status from ON to MAN to OFF

 

and back to ON. ON means the OmniLink 5000 will automatically adjust the air

 

pressure when a job is recalled to the air pressure associated with that job. MAN

 

means the OmniLink 5000 will automatically adjust the air pressure, but the

 

pressure can only be changed from the Auto Setup screen by entering the desired

 

air pressure. A recalled job will NOT change the pressure if you configure the

 

module to MAN. OFF means the OmniLink 5000 will not control the air

 

pressure. This value should typically be set to ON.

Max. Pressure

This value should be set to the maximum operating air pressure at which the

 

counterbalance, cushion, or hydraulic overload is designed to operate.

 

For counterbalances, this is the pressure which counterbalances the heaviest upper

 

die the press is designed to accommodate. The press counterbalance table

 

(typically mounted on the press) or the press manual should give this value.
