Section 6.1.7 Forward/Reverse Motor Contacts

These inputs report the state of the main motors, where +24 volts indicates that the motor is on. The press
control allows stroke initiation in Inch and Timed Inch modes in either direction or if both motors are off.
All other modes will immediately stop, and no additional strokes allowed unless the motor is turning in
the forward direction. A fault occurs if the inputs report that both motors are on.

Section 6.1.8 Mode Selector Switch

These inputs report the state of the mode selector key switch. The press control allows stroke initiation
in only the RUN position. The MODE SELECT position allows the present stroking mode of the press
to be selected from the operator terminal. The OFF state is assumed if both inputs are open (0 volts).

Section 6.1.9 Press Line Interface

These inputs are provided for interfacing to a press line. If the system 5000 is configured to recognize the
press line (configuration type 001 or 002), the "Press Line Manual/Auto" selector switch input informs
the press control and the press line of the intended mode of operation. In the manual mode (input at 0
volts), the press control will allow stroke initiation in only the manual stroking modes (Inch, Timed Inch,
Setup/Stop Time Test, Single Stroke, Trip Mode, and Operator Maintain Continuous) and only if the feed
line reports that it is in the manual mode ("Feed Line Manual/Auto input at 0 volts). In the automatic
mode, the press control will allow stroke initiation in only automatic stroking modes (Continuous and
Automatic Single Stroke) and only if the feed line is fully setup for automatic ("Feed Line Manual/Auto
input at +24 volts). A configuration type 002 releases these requirements in Single Stroke and Trip Mode,
and allows the press line to operate manually or automatically. A configuration type 000 releases the press
line interface requirements in all modes.

The "Feed Complete Signal" allows the press line to initiate strokes in the Automatic Single Stroke mode
(see section on Automatic Feed Settings for more information). If configured to recognize the press line,
this input is monitored in Continuous to verify that the feed is complete by a programmed position in the
downstroke. In Automatic Single Stroke, the function of this input does not depend on Press/Feed Line
configuration of the system 5000. The input must cycle low in the upstroke or while the press is paused
at the top and back high in order to initiate automatic strokes. The factory configuration allows the
following interfaces:

Feed Line Type

Interface to Press/Feed Line

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

000

Press is separate from press line.

001

Press Line is slaved to press.

002

Press Line is slaved in all modes except
Single Stroke and Trip Mode.

Section 6.1.10 Valve Monitor

These inputs are provided for monitoring the clutch/brake dual air valve. Since there are different valve
mechanisms, the internal monitor can be configured by the factory for different types. The type selected
