LINK Systems LinkNet II - Manual (Page 41)

4.9.1.4 Machine Miscellaneous Settings
The “Miscellaneous”
settings page (see Figure
4.23) contains the press idle
timeout value and several
other settings. The
information and settings on
this page are:
Idle Timeout: The amount
of time in minutes that a
machine can go without
making a stroke before being
considered “idle”. In order
to track machine utilization,
it is necessary to know not
only when a machine is
down, but also when it is
simply not in use. After the
number of minutes set by this
parameter without stroking,
the machine will automatically go into a “Machine Idle” down time code. This condition is
automatically cleared when the press makes a stroke.

custom uses by, of course, the customer.
