prevent further automatic stroking until the stop conditions are removed and automatic stroking is manually
initiated. Stroke initiation is prevented if an inactive station run button is depressed. If station #4 is
configured for a foot switch, stroke initiation is prevented if the foot switch is selected. Only the active palm
button stations may be used to initiate a stroke in this mode. Stroking is allowed only when the main motor
is on and running in the forward direction. This mode is optional and can be configured On by the factory
only if the press control is equipped with a 3
rd input board.
Section 4.3.8 Maintain Continuous (When Provided)
This mode selection requires the use of a Continuous Setup prior action button and maintained operation of
the selected operator stations to cause stroking. Six seconds are allowed after the Setup button is depressed
for all selected operator station run buttons to be depressed. After initiation, the press will stroke
continuously as long as the run buttons are depressed. If released while the press is in the downstroke, the
press will stop immediately. If released in the upstroke, the press will continue automatically to the top of
the stroke. In the event of any stop condition, further strokes can be initiated only after all run buttons and
the Continuous Setup button are released. Stroke initiation is prevented if an inactive station run button is
depressed. If the press control is configured for a foot switch wired into station #4, initiation is allowed with
the foot switch only if all other operator stations are turned Off. Press operation is allowed only with the
main motor running in the forward direction. This mode is optional and can be configured ON or OFF by
the factory.

The menu in Figure 4.8 allows the user to access the press control programmable limit switch outputs. The
present settings may be viewed in the RUN mode, but can only be altered in the PROG mode. All outputs
