Need help?Do you have a question about the LOGICDATA CBX-1 and is the answer not in the manual?
The LOGICDATA CBX-1 / CBX-2 motor control box is a sophisticated electronic device designed for the precise height adjustment of desks. This user manual provides comprehensive instructions for its installation, initial operation, and advanced functionalities, ensuring safe and efficient use. The CBX-1 model is engineered to control a single motor for desk height adjustment, while the CBX-2 model is capable of controlling up to two motors, offering flexibility for various desk configurations. The product is manufactured by LOGICDATA GmbH, a company committed to state-of-the-art technology and adherence to all relevant safety requirements.
At its core, the CBX-1 / CBX-2 motor control box facilitates the up/down movement of height-adjustable desks. It achieves this by driving lifting columns equipped with motors that meet LOGICDATA GmbH's specifications. The control box acts as the central processing unit, receiving commands from a connected handset and translating them into precise motor movements.
The control box offers a range of configurable stop conditions, including overcurrent, timeout, and limit switches, which enhance safety and prevent damage. It also features configurable reset conditions and a configurable duty cycle to manage motor operation and prevent overheating. An optional mains cut-off feature further contributes to energy efficiency and safety.
A key functionality is "PLUG DETECTION," which allows the control box to identify whether a motor is correctly connected to its interface. This ensures proper setup and prevents operation with incomplete connections.
For enhanced user convenience, the control box supports up to four memory positions, enabling users to save and recall preferred desk heights with ease. An optional "Pinch protection with optional squeeze line" feature, when integrated with the ACS-CB-PINCH module, provides an important safety mechanism. This system detects obstructions during downward movement and triggers a "DRIVE-BACK" function, automatically moving the desk in the opposite direction for a pre-defined distance to prevent pinching or damage.
The control box's software-dependent functions are parameterized prior to delivery, meaning certain advanced features are only available if the control box is configured accordingly. These include a "Reset after Power On" procedure, which ensures a safe and controlled startup by locking the "desk up" key and requiring a full downward movement to the lowest end position before normal operation can commence. A "Safety Area" function defines a pre-defined position where the desk will stop during downward movement, requiring a second press of the "desk down" key to continue to the lowest end position. This prevents accidental movement into a potentially hazardous zone.
The CBX-1 / CBX-2 control box is designed for intuitive operation, primarily through a connected handset. The basic functionality of moving the desk up and down is accessible with any LOGICDATA handset.
For advanced users with handsets equipped with position and save keys, the control box offers the ability to save and recall specific desk heights. To save a position, the user moves the desk to the desired height, presses the "S" key, and then selects a position key (e.g., T1, T2). The saving operation is confirmed by a double-click sound and a temporary display of the stored height.
Moving to a saved position can be done in two ways:
The "Change Displayed Height" function allows users to adjust the height displayed on the handset without altering the actual desk height. This is useful for calibration or personal preference.
The manual emphasizes the importance of proper installation and initial operation by competent personnel to ensure the device's longevity and safe functioning.
A crucial maintenance feature is the "Manual Reset." This procedure is necessary if the desk becomes misaligned or when using a pre-configured control box on an identically constructed desk. It involves holding the "desk down" key until the lowest possible position is reached, then holding it again for approximately 5 seconds until the desk slowly moves to the absolute end position. This aligns the desk and prepares it for normal operation.
The "End Position Alignment Procedure" is a more advanced maintenance step that must be carried out during initial operation by a service technician. This procedure ensures that the control box accurately recognizes the desk's upper and lower end positions, which is critical for safe and precise movement.
The control box is equipped with "Duty Cycle Monitoring," which is a protective mechanism. If the predefined "on-time" for continuous operation is exceeded (e.g., 1 minute), the control box will stop operation and disable driving for a subsequent period (e.g., 9 minutes) to prevent overheating and potential damage. If the display shows "HOT," it indicates that this protection mechanism has been activated, and the user must wait for the control box to cool down before resuming operation.
The manual also provides a comprehensive "Possible Troubles and Solutions" section, offering guidance on common issues such as drives not working, drives moving only in one direction, or the control box/handset not functioning. This section helps users troubleshoot minor problems before needing to contact customer service. For more complex issues or error codes displayed on the handset, a detailed "Displayed Error Messages" list is provided, along with corresponding solutions, often recommending contacting customer service for internal errors or unplugging the control box for short circuits.
For repairs, the manual strictly advises using only genuine replacement parts and having repairs carried out by a qualified service technician to avoid voiding the warranty. This highlights the importance of professional service for maintaining the device's integrity and safety.
Finally, for the end-of-life stage, the manual provides "Final Disposal" instructions, emphasizing the ecological disposal of components, separating plastic from electronic parts, and applying the same principle to accessories like squeeze lines, drives, and cables. This commitment to responsible disposal underscores the manufacturer's environmental awareness.
