LINK Systems OmniLink II Press Automation Control - Manual (Page 54)

August 30, 2002 Manual Version 1.0 4.5
4. Configuring the Operator Terminal serial ports for any software options, such as serial feed interface
and PLC Interface used.
5. Choosing whether certain bypass or reset actions for both standard and optional features are
unrestricted, or whether these actions can only be done by persons you have chosen to do so in the
security settings of the system.
6. Setting up the key/code access security system of the OmniLink to restrict certain reset or bypass
actions and settings in programming menus to specific personnel or by Program/Run key.
7. Entering any diagnostic Messages that may be sent to the Operator Terminal parallel port by outputs
from an auxiliary equipment PLC controller.
You must be able to stroke the machine to do certain parts of configuring the OmniLink II Press
Automation control in the Main Configuration Menu. The system has outputs that are connected to the
stop circuits of your press control that will be activated if a fault occurs. At this time you need to make
sure that any monitoring or control functions associated with optional Die Protection, PLS, and other
modules that you are using with the system will not generate a fault that you will have to repeatedly
reset each time you stroke. As shipped from the factory, any optional modules shipped with the system
are generally not programmed to perform monitoring or control actions and will not generate faults.
However, if anyone at your facility has experimented with programming various monitoring functions
before the system is configured, you may have to reprogram them to prevent faults when you stroke as
follows: make sure all counters are turned off; if Die Protection or Analog Process Monitor options are
provided, set all channels to Unused; if Tonnage and Signature Monitor option is provided, press the
BYPASS softkey to bypass both high and low limits.
The Main Configuration Menu is accessed from the Brake Monitor menu. The CONFIGURE softkey is
available only in the Brake Monitor Menu when the Program/Run switch is in the PROG position. The
Brake Monitor menu is shown in Figure 4.4 with Program/Run switch in PROG position.
