Section 6.6.1 Reset All Channels Configuration
There are two options to Reset Configuration. These options define the number of channels that are
reset when the RESET ERROR softkey is pressed. The options are that only the channels that are
visible on the screen are reset when the RESET ERROR softkey is selected or that all channels are reset
when the RESET ERROR softkey is selected. The die protection screen shows eight channels at a time.
If this option is set to No, only the eight channels visible on the screen will be reset when the RESET
ERROR softkey is selected. If channels that are not visible on the screen are also in an error condition,
they will not be reset. To reset the other faulted channels, the user will have to page through to the
screen(s) that show the other faulted channels. Once the other faulted channels are visible, the RESET
ERROR softkey will reset them. If this option is set to Yes, then the RESET ERROR softkey will reset
all channels even if they are not currently displayed on the screen.
The suggested setting of this configuration parameter is No. When set to No, only the channels on the
screen will be reset. The operator will have to page through to all screens that contain faulted channels
to reset them. This will force the operator to at least view all pages that contain faulted channels.
Section 6.6.2 Stroke Limited Bypass Maximum Strokes and Maximum Time
Stroke limited bypass is an option that when selected allows a user to bypass the monitoring functions of
the Digital Die Protection and Process Monitor for a limited number of strokes or for a limited time.
The system will remove the bypass after either limit is reached. If stroke limited bypass is not required,
the Stroke Limited Bypass Maximum Strokes parameter should be set to zero. If a stroke limited bypass
is used but the timeout is not required, the Stroke Limited Bypass Maximum Time should be set to zero.
A user who has been granted access to stroke limited bypass could do so by selecting the Bypass “x”
Strokes softkey. When this softkey is selected, the digital die protection and process monitoring system
will be bypassed for the number of strokes (“x”) entered in the Stroke Limited Bypass Maximum
Strokes parameter or for the number of minutes entered for the Stroke Limited Bypass Maximum Time.
