OmniLink system. The right column is used to indicate information pertaining to device status,
such as “detected”, which means the Operator Terminal has established communication with the
module. The TOGGLE USED softkey will toggle the “Used” column for the highlighted
(selected) device from No to Yes or Yes to No. The UPDATE PROGRAM softkey is used only
in rare instances where it is desired to update software for a selected device to a newer version.

The Device Configuration screen indicates the following devices that must be configured
whether or not are they are used with the system. An explanation of the Device Configuration
items is listed below.

1. System 5000 Card Rack and 5000 High Speed Serial Bus Interface. The System 5000 Card

Rack is the clutch/brake control with the necessary input modules and output drive module.
The 5000 High Speed Serial Bus Interface module is required to communicate with the other
OmniLink II Press Automation Control options, such as the Automatic Setup module. Both
of these items must be configured for “Yes,” if the System 5000 Press Control is part of the
system. If these two items are set to “Yes,” the R/D – Brake Monitor Module should be set
to “No.”


2. R/D – Brake Monitor Module. This module is used in OmniLink II Press Automation

Control system applications that do not include the OmniLink 5000 Press Control. When the
OmniLink II Press Automation system is being used without the OmniLink 5000 Press
Control, this must be configured “Yes.” If this item is set to “Yes,” both the System 5000
Card Rack and the 5000 High Speed Serial Bus Interface items should be set to “No.”


3. Programmable Limit Switch Outputs. The system provides for up to 32 programmable limit

switch outputs. These outputs are options that come in groups of 8. Each group of 8 channels
is pre-numbered and will be recognized by the operator terminal to be the specific pre-
numbered group. If a group is to be used, it must be configured “Yes.”


4. Die Protection Modules 1-5. The system provides for up to 5 die protection modules. Any

connected module should be configured “Yes.”


5. Auto Setup Mod. 1-4. The system provides for up to 4 automatic setup modules. Any

connected module should be configured “Yes.”


6. Tonnage & Analog Sig. Monitor. If an OmniLink II Press Automation Control Tonnage &

Analog Signal Monitor module is part of the system, this parameter should be configured to
“Yes.”
