Fault and Warning Outputs
Fault - (Problem)
Pins 7 and 8 on the 15-way connector are the open relay contacts for FAULT.
Fault relay contacts open when SmartDate 5 is:
– In READY mode.
– Not in a position to print because of a PROBLEM
READY mode:
The Unit OK signal is switched off when the SmartDate 5 is switched out of
PRODUCING mode and into READY mode.
ABORTED mode: (Fault)
If a problem occurs the SmartDate 5 will automatically switch to ABORTED mode and
indicate that there is a problem.
PRODUCING mode:
The contact is closed when the printer is ready to print.
The contacts should be used to provide an interlock to the overall control of the packag-
ing machine.
It is recommended that this signal is always used to prevent unmarked products being
produced.
Warning
The Warning relay contacts close when a warning such as a low ribbon condition is
detected.
Pins 9 and 10 on the 15-way connector are the closed relay contacts for Warnings.
The contact is open when the printer is ready to print.
The relay contacts are suitable for a current between 10mA and 1A. The
maximum rating is 1A at 30VAC/DC. Control of higher voltages (e.g. 100VAC)
or currents must use intermediate external control relays or contactors.
