The next three menu items are active displays
showing input and output signals. These screens
are useful for troubleshooting. The switched
digital inputs (see figure15) can be tested on this
display. If an input is On, the display is a “1” and
if it is Off or 0 volts, the display is a “0”. Likewise
the AUX outputs and Digisensor inputs can be
displayed. The Troubleshooting guide has
additional information.The next menu item is
“Restore Factory Defaults” and is used to reset all
of the adjustable parameters to the settings that
were programmed in by the factory. The display
looks like this, with the bottom line flashing.
Pressing the Plus key will restore the default
values. Pressing the Enter key will step to the
next menu item.
The final three menu selections go together.
They provide an alternate method of choosing
adjustments, channels and the direction for
making changes.
At each of these
screens, the
selected
item (e.g.: TH, MX, RU, RD or LR) will flash. Use
the Plus key to select and the Enter key to go to
the next menu. After proceeding through these 3
menus, you will be able to adjust thE selected
variable.
Customized Display (Appendix 2)
Your particular Superflex 4 System application
may be customized to easily identify the
machine’s function. Nine characters may be
specified for each function, channel and direction.
For example - you might choose “DRIVE FWD”
for the machines drive forward, “BOOM LIFT”
and “ROTATE R” for boom functions, etc. Refer
to the customized data located in Appendix 2 of
this manual.
Bench / Static Adjustments
Any adjustment can be made without operating
the machine. This process is known as “static” or
“on the bench” calibration. Use the following
steps -
1) Provide power to the Superflex 4 Controller.
Connect the Optimizer.
2) Select a “function” (channel) by pressing the
Function Select key one or more times, until the
desired channel (1 through 4) is displayed.
3) Select a direction (A or B) by pressing the DIR
A/B key.
4) Select a controller adjustment by pressing one
of Threshold, Maxout, Low Range, Ramp Up or
Ramp Down keys.
5) Use the Plus and Minus keys to make the
adjustment.
6) Press RUN to save the changes before
powering down or disconnecting the
Optimizer.
Factory Default Values (Appendix 3)
All defaults (preset values) as well as upper and
lower limits to each adjustment range may be
specified by the customer. These setting are
installed by OEM Controls when your Superflex 4
Controller is manufactured. After making
adjustments with the Optimizer, it may be
desirable to return to these default values. This
task is easily accomplished with the Optimizer.
1) Apply power to the Superflex 4 Controller and
connect the Optimizer.
2) Press the Menu key. Then press the Enter key
several times, until the Optimizer displays
“Restore Defaults?”.
Press the Plus key to restore the default values.
The Optimizer displays “BUSY” while the original
values are copied. This may take several
seconds, depending on how many values need to
be restored. Then the Optimizer will momentarily
display “DONE” and return to the default run
screen. Be sure to wait for this to happen before
disconnecting the Optimizer or turning off power
to the Superflex 4 Controller. After all
adjustments have been made for the desired
machine performance, it would be helpful to
record all of these settings for future reference.
The table at the right can be used for this.
