Section 5.1.3 Manual Slide Movement

As noted in the section explaining the softkeys in the slide screen, the slide may be manually moved by pressing the “JOG UP” and “JOG DN” softkeys. Note that the jog keys will only appear when the editing cursor is on a slide adjust setpoint. These keys will work regardless of whether the slide system is on, off, or in manual mode. Note, however, that these keys will not override the mechanical up and down limit switches in the slide. In addition, these keys will not allow movement beyond the electronic limits entered in the configuration screen for the slide unless the slide system is “OFF”.

Section 5.1.4 Slide Fault and Status

The last fault and current status of the slide system are displayed for diagnostic and informational purposes. Under normal conditions “Fault” should be “None”. If there is a problem with the slide system, it will be reported here. “Status” gives the current state of the system such as “In Position”, Slide Low”, “Moving Up” etc. For the most part these messages will be self explanatory. See section 6 for a complete list of fault and status messages with explanations.

Section 5.2 Air System (Counterbalance, Cushion, and Hydraulic Overload) Operation

Counterbalances, cushions, and hydraulic overloads (at least the overloads the ASM supports) are all controlled by air pressure and as such are grouped as “air systems”. Each configured air system has its own “box” on the screen (see Figure 5.1). The title of the box has the air system name and the mode the system is in (ON, OFF, or MANUAL). This box contains:

Pressure Set

The desired pressure of the air system in psi. This number may be changed by

 

manual operator entry when the operator has access via key or user code

 

depending on the configuration of the system as detailed in section 2. It may also

 

be automatically changed to the required pressure setpoint for a previously stored

 

job when that job setup is recalled from memory and the air system is “ON”.

Die Weight Set

For counterbalances only, the desired die weight to be counterbalanced by the air

 

system. This number may be changed by manual operator entry when the

 

operator has access via key or user code depending on the configuration of the

 

system as detailed in section 2. It will also be changed to the required die weight

 

setpoint for a previously stored job when that job setup is recalled from memory

 

and the air system is “ON”. This number can be set in pounds, kilograms, tons,

 

or metric tons depending on the configuration as detailed in section 4.2.1.

Cush Force Set

For cushions only, the desired cushion force to be generated by the air system.

 

This number may be changed by manual operator entry when the operator has

 

access via key or user code depending on the configuration of the system as

 

detailed in section 2. It will also be changed to the required cushion force
