Load Initial Profile Values for

Machine Tuning

In the previous chapters, you entered information into configuration blocks
necessary for your clamp and eject profiles to run properly. This chapter
describes how to load actual profile setpoints for clamp and ejector
operations.

After you read this chapter, you should have determined and entered the
following:

Clamp Close Profile (CPC)
Clamp Open Profile (OPC)
Ejector Profile (EPC)

Command and Status Blocks Used

The following table contains a list of command blocks you are to configure
throughout the course of this chapter. You may reference these command
blocks in Sections 1 and 3 of the Plastic Molding Module Reference
