When system bypass is active, the bypass softkeys change to a single Cancel Bypass softkey and the
“Bypass Status” changes to “System Bypassed” with a yellow background. Press the Cancel Bypass
softkey to return the system to normal operation.
In addition to the manual removal of bypass, the unit can be configured to automatically switch off
bypass when the press mode is switched from setup mode to production mode. This is controlled by the
“Auto Unbypass When Switching to Production Mode” parameter as described in Section 4.5.3 on page
60. The automatic un-bypass feature only removes the bypass when the press mode changes from setup
mode to production mode. Once in production mode, any user who has been granted access to do so can
again select system bypass.
While a system bypass is in effect, all channel states in the die protection main screen will be
highlighted in yellow, the “Ch. Status” of each channel will display “Bypassed”, and the “Module
Status” will display “System Bypassed”.
3.3.6.2 Stroke Limited Bypass
If “Limited Bypass Strokes” is greater than zero, a Limited Bypass softkey is shown. Press the
Limited Bypass softkey to bypass all die protection channels for the number of press strokes shown for
the “Limited Bypass Strokes” parameter. In addition to the number of strokes limit, a timer (the
“Limited Bypass Time” parameter) may also be programmed to limit the time that the stroke limited
bypass remains in effect. Stroke limited bypass will be removed when the number of strokes is reached
or when the time expires without making a stroke, whichever occurs first.
The “Limited Bypass Strokes” and “Limited Bypass Time” parameters can be no greater than the
“Limited Bypass Maximum Strokes” and “Limited Bypass Maximum Time” parameters described in
Section 4.5.1 on page 60.
When limited bypass is active, the bypass softkeys change to a single Cancel Bypass softkey. Press the
Cancel Bypass softkey to return the system to normal operation.
In addition to the manual removal of bypass, the unit can be configured to automatically switch off
bypass when the press mode is switched from setup mode to production mode. This is controlled by the
“Auto Unbypass When Switching to Production Mode” parameter as described in Section 4.5.3 on page
60. The automatic un-bypass feature only removes the bypass when the press mode changes from setup
mode to production mode. Once in production mode, any user who has been granted access to do so can
again select system bypass.
While a limited bypass is in effect, all channel states in the die protection main screen will be
highlighted in yellow, the “Ch. Status” of each channel will display “Bypassed”, and “Module Status” in
the main die protection screen will display “Bypass (X Strokes Remaining)” with X showing how many
strokes are left. The strokes remaining will count down as strokes are made.
3.3.6.3 Bypass In Setup Mode
Each individual channel can be configured to automatically bypass when the press mode is switched to a
setup mode. These channels will automatically return to normal operation when the press is switched to
production mode - assuming that a system bypass or limited bypass is not in effect. To automatically
bypass a sensor in a setup mode, set the parameter in the “Bypass In Setup Mode” column for the
