Section 5.2 Air System (Counterbalance, Cushion, and Hydraulic Overload Operation
Counterbalances and cushions 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 4.2.1.1.
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 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 4.2.1.2.
Actual Pressure The
actual air pressure of the air system in psi as measured by a pressure
transducer that is an input to the system.
Fault
If the air system detects an error it will be reported on this line. A fault
occurs when a hardware or firmware problem is diagnosed by the system.
See section 6 for a list of fault messages and their meanings.
Status
The current status of the air system. Status messages indicate what the
system is doing in the normal course of its operation. See section 6 for a
list of status messages and their meanings.
