Rapid-Air SERVO FEED: 100C, 100D series - Manual (Page 16)


If the F1 key is pressed then the servo
will be in the auto batch mode and the
following screen appears.
BATCH SETTING=000000
BATCH COUNTER=000000
F1=RESET BATCH COUNT
F4=CONTINUE WITH COUNT
If the F1 “reset batch count” is
pressed then the batch count will be
reset to preset or if the F4 “continue
with count” is pressed then either
way the following screen appears.
The only difference is that if F1 is
pressed, then the count starts over
and if F4 is pressed, then it continues
with existing batch count on counter.
AUTOMATIC BATCH=000000
JOB #=XX PILOTS=NO
LGTH=XXX.XXX SPM=XXX
SPEED=XXX% F4=RETURN
Pressing the F4 key, stops the
automatic cycle and the main menu
screen appears. When the automatic
screen is displayed, all keys except
the F4 key are inactive. Every
time the press cycles and trips the
feed switch, the feed will cycle once
per the parameters displayed on the
screen. If the feed encounters
excessive material drag while feeding
or the material being moved encoun-
ters a restriction that stops the mate-
rial forward movement then a servo
fault can occur. If this happens then
the following screen is displayed.
A DRIVE FAULT HAS OCCURRED
NOTE TYPE OF FAULT
( )
*Example of fault
#2 Motor over temperature
Look up fault code printout listed in
this manual .
Operator Input Terminal – Programming Procedure – Standard Software
If this screen is displayed then the
control cabinet has to be opened and
the Pac-Sci drive has to be checked.
To reset the fault, the master on-off
switch has to be cycled which will
reset the controller. The material path
should be checked for obstruction
and parallelism to the die. If all this
seems to be satisfactory and
another fault occurs the factory
should be consulted.
MAIN MENU
F1=JOB # F2=MANUAL
F3=AUTOMATIC CYCLE
F4=REVIEW PARAMETERS
The last section to be covered is the
ramp/counters section. To get into
this mode, press the ramp pushbutton
and the following screen appears.
SELECT RAMP/COUNTERS
F1=BATCH/TOTAL COUNT
F2=ACCEL/DECEL RAMPS
F4=EXIT TO MAIN MENU
F1=BATCH/TOTAL COUNTS
Pressing the F1 key will bring up the
batch/total screen, which is used
for presetting the batch count or
resetting the total count. The
following screen appears.
BATCH COUNTER=000000
TOTAL COUNTER=000000
SET:F1=BATCH F2=TOTAL
F4=RETURN TO RAMP COUNT
Pressing the F1-batch counter key
allows the operator to preset a batch
count. Pressing the F2-total counter
key resets the total count to zero. This
cannot be undone so be sure that the
counter should be reset to zero before
pressing F2 key. Pressing the F4 key
brings up the following screen.
PROGRAmmING PROCEDURE – (CONTINUED)
SELECT RAMP/COUNTERS
F1=BATCH/TOTAL COUNT
F2=ACCEL/DECEL RAMPS
F4=EXIT TO MAIN MENU
The only section that has not been
covered in this write-up is the ramp
adjust mode. The ramp adjusts how
fast the servo motor gets up to speed
and how fast it stops. This feature is
an asset that is seldom adjusted but
can be a sure cure if material
slippage seems to be a problem. With
the main menu screen displayed the
key labeled ramp is active. Pressing
the ramp key produces this display.
RAMP PARAMETER MODE
F1=ACCEL% F2=DECEL%
F3=PERCENT MAX SPEED
F4=RETURN RAMP/COUNT
PRESS F1 OR F2
Pressing the F1 or F2 keys will
produce one of the following displays.
The lower the number entered, the
longer the ramp cycle. Press F1 or
F2 now.
ENTER IN %ACCEL RATE
MAX%=75000 RPM/SEC
MAX ACCEL%=XXX%
F4=EXIT %ACCEL MENU
ENTER IN %DECEL RATE
MAX%=75000 RPM/SEC
MAX DECEL% = XXX%
F4=EXIT %DECEL MENU
The ramp usually is factory set at
.015 on the series 100 drives and .035
on the series 200 & 300 drives. There
is some deviation to this when the
factory runs the unit, but this is a
basic starting point.
