Clean
Any CHANNEL or Gun can be placed into a CLEAN
mode by an external command or through the Host
controller. The Clean mode forces the material
regulator fully open until turned OFF. The GUN
Enable and CLEAN inputs must be active and all
system or GUN faults cleared. To properly exit
the CLEAN MODE, the GUN Clean input should
be removed followed by a GUN Halt signal, or
a command issued from the Operator Interface
Panel (host controller). Each CHANNEL must be
set as a "clean" CHANNEL in the Clean CHANNEL
parameter located in the Gun Configuration table.
Make sure the proper channels are
configured to "clean" on the Gun Param-
eters screen.
NOTE
Full Error Detection
The DynaFlow controller will detect certain error
conditions and indicate the cause of the error
with a code. The code indicates the faulted Gun
and CHANNEL, as well as giving you a text error
message. All errors are categorized by CHANNEL,
Gun or System depending on the type of error.
The error codes and conditions are listed in the
appendix and include:
• Tolerance errors in fluid flow rates for each
material
• Tolerance errors in fluid flow ratios for each
material
• Reverse fluid flow
• Low material flow
• High material flow
• Pot-life timers expired
• Memory errors
• Backup disk errors
• Configuration errors
• System errors
PROCEDURES
First-Time System Start-Up
This section is intended for skilled trades person-
nel. Always be aware of safety guidelines while
operating equipment.
Before power is supplied to the DynaFlow Fluid
Flow Control, take time to familiarize yourself
with the controls. Unexpected actions can occur
during initial power-up sequences and you should
know which controls shut down the controller. The
following information serves as a guide for initial
system testing and start-up. Operational problems
will be avoided if time is taken to follow the steps
outlined below. Read through the entire sequence
first before performing any actions.
• Verify that the Interface and Channel Mod-
ule dip switch settings are correct. Refer-
ence the HARDWARE SETTINGS section.
• Visually inspect the entire system. Review
the "Installation" section of this manual and
any related manuals such as the flow meter
and material regulator. Verify that all air and
fluid lines are routed properly and fittings
are secure.
• Make sure that the required fluid filtration is
installed. Fluid lines should be flushed out
manually before installation of the flow
meters to ensure that any large particles or
contamination located from the fluid filter to
the flow meter connection are removed.
• Make sure that the required air filtration for
the E/P transducer(s) is installed.
• If rotary applicators are used, remove the
front shroud and bell cup to expose the
paint feed tube. If GUNs are being used,
point the applicator(s) downward if pos-
sible. This will prevent the possibility of
material from contaminating the applicator
and provide additional safety for any per-
sonnel working near the system.
• Turn ON the main power disconnect to the
fluid flow control panel.
• Turn ON the power switch located on the
flow control panel.
