Special convey When this option is enabled, the station’s vacuum
valve remains open for the convey time, even if
the station is not demanding material and is
indicating that it is full. When disabled, the
station’s vacuum valve opens when there is
demand from the station, and it remains open until
the convey time has elapsed or material trips the
volume-fill proximity switch.
Enable this option if and only if the station has no
flapper.

Alarm Options

No convey When this option is enabled, the controller issues
a “no convey” alarm if it has repeatedly attempted
to convey material to the station but the flapper
never opened during the dump delay. (The
number of attempts is controlled by the next
setting.)
Usually this option should be enabled. At times,
you may wish to disable it during operation as a
stopgap measure for dealing with an alarm.

# attempts before
alarm
Number of attempts before alarm: the number of
times the controller will attempt to convey material
to a station before it issues a “no convey” alarm.
The setting for this option depends on (a) how
much material your injection mold uses to make
each part compared with the capacity of the
receiver and (b) how important it is to keep your
injection mold from running out of material and
shutting down. A higher setting will give you fewer
alarms, at the risk of emptying the receiver without
warning. A lower setting will give more frequent
alarms, at the risk of disrupting operations
unnecessarily.
