LINK Systems LinkNet II - Manual (Page 59)

4.15 Preventive Maintenance Configuration
Preventive maintenance (PM) allows one or more setpoints to be entered for each machine or tool.
These setpoints can be set by elapsed time, press running time, and strokes. OmniLink 5000 controls
additionally support setpoints by “Motor On” time, Total feed length, and Clutch/Brake engagements.
PM items can be set by
machine or tool. If set up by tool,
the PM settings will be tracked
regardless of which machine the
tool is run on. For example, if a
stroke based PM setting is applied
to a tool with a limit of 20000
strokes, then 10000 strokes run on
machine 1234 and 10000 strokes
run on machine 1100 will cause
the limit to be reached.
