7. OPERATING MODE
VIP5 Pro has three different operating modes which are determined during the setup stage described previously.
These are: CYCLE, PULSE and FLOW.
7.1 CYCLE Mode
In Cycle mode a cycle sensor determines the completion of the LUBRICATION PHASE. If using timer setting, the Lubrication
Cycle will complete when the timer expire. The Standby phase is determined by a timer or by an external input counter.
7.2 PULSE Mode
In Pulse mode, the duration of the Standby Phase and the Lubrication Phase are both determined by an external counter.
The correct operation of the Lubrication Cycle can be monitored using a cycle sensor.
Example:
Standby Phase determined by the Pause Counter, and lubrication Phase
determined by Cycle Counter.
[CYCLE Cnt >1 PAUSE Cnt > 0 ]
The Lubrication Phase is Suspended if no external signals are received
within a time specified by the suspend Timer.
[SUSPEND T>0 ]
Example 1) Standby and Lubrication determined by ON & OFF Timer
Example 2) Standby determined by a counter
Example 3) Standby determined by a counter and timer combination.
Lubrication Phase can be repeated
Example 4) Standby determined by a counter. Alarm signal given if the
external counter signals not detected within a set time.
