Figure 5-8: User Guide Screen
5.7 Info Screen
The Info screen is selected from the Main screen, and displays information about the
Sentinel Plus system, and the press brake. The screen can be switched between displaying
System Information and Machine Information.
Note:
The system parameters are stored in the User Interface Panel, and the system
cannot run if the panel is disconnected. The safety application running on the
PGS-3 monitors the system heartbeat signal.
If the heartbeat signal is not detected for 10 seconds, the safety application
disables the down enable outputs. If the foot pedal is pressed, the PGS-3 LCD
screen shows the Condition Code 40A1.
5.7.1 System Information
System Information is displayed by pressing the SYSTEM INFO menu button in the Info
screen.
• Comm Status. A heartbeat message is transmitted constantly between the PGS-3
and the panel to verify the integrity of the communications link. The Comm status
field shows the state of the communications link; Connected or Not connected.
• HMI type. The User Interface Panel or HMI is used in several Lazer Safe guarding
products. This is the particular guarding system for which the panel has been
configured.
• HMI version. Sentinel Plus User Interface Panel software version.
• Kernel version. PGS-3 Safety Controller kernel software version.
• Application. PGS-3 Safety Controller application software version.
• FPGA version. PGS-3 Safety Controller FPGA firmware version.
• Approx. slow point. The slow speed point calculated by the Sentinel Plus. The press
brake must be travelling in slow speed by this opening (in millimetres).
• MSD (Manufacturer Stopping Distance). The maximum distance that the press beam
travels while stopping, as quoted by the press beam manufacturer. This value is
programmed into the Sentinel Plus during installation. The stopping performance of
the press beam is tested at start-up, and constantly monitored during operation (see
Stop Distance in the Machine Information menu Section 5.7.2.
• BLR version. The LZS-005-R block laser receiver firmware version.
