Additional information for TWIN systems:
- TWIN systems are only compatible with the OPT/i RI FB REL EXT 8I/8O option
- If an input signal is set on one of the two power sources, the signal is also set on the
fieldbus output
Touch signal
(Touch signal) -
Single Bit
The signal is used for various functions and indicates that
- A workpiece is being touched in Touch-mode
- The wire electrode is touching a workpiece while the Wire forward signal is active at
the same time
- When using the WireSense edge detection function, the set threshold value has
been reached and thus the required edge has been successfully detected.
• For more information on WireSense, see section WireSense - more informa-
tion on page 52.
Additional information for TWIN systems:
- Only one of the two wire electrodes is monitored
- In single wire mode, only the active wire electrode is monitored
- In single wire mode, only the leading wire electrode (Lead) is monitored
Characteristic
number valid
(Characteristic
number valid) -
Single Bit
If the signal is High, the selected characteristic and the selected process are approved
and can be used.
Sensor Status 1
(sensor status 1)
- Single Bit
This signal indicates the status of the wire end option 4,100,869,CK.
Signal level Description
High Wire electrode present
Low No wire electrode present
The signal is output as soon as the sensor of the option is detected in the system.
