To program, the programmer must have the Supervisory
Controlled Key and the PROG mode must be selected.
The programmer has the capabilities to do all items that
the operator has capabilities of, plus the following:
Adjust Contrast
The LCD contrast is adjusted up or down when selected.
Also, the screen can be inverted from black on white to
white on black. This feature is adjustable in either RUN
or PROG modes. The contrast may change slightly under
different temperature conditions and at start-up.
Job Selection
If you choose to select an empty job, the computer will
automatically copy the entire contents for the currently
selected job into the empty job. This is so you start with
the same Top Dead Center offset and limit switch outputs
that control the stopping of the press (see Press Utility
description for other job functions).
Job Number (must be in PROG mode). The PressCam
8 has a total storage capacity of 75 jobs. The Job
Number displayed indicates which Job Number is
currently being run or selected.
1. Press the Knob while over the JOB NUMBER.
2. Rotate the Turning Knob till the JOB NUMBER
desired is present and Press the Knob.
The PressCam 8 is now ready to run the JOB NUMBER
that you have selected.
Job Name (must fi rst select a job number). The
Job Name can consist of up to ten characters. These
characters can be alphanumeric and may also include
symbols such as /, \, !, ?, =, etc….
1. Press the Turning Knob and hold in for two
seconds. Once the far-left character space is
shown, the name is now ready to be programmed
or change.
2. If the character is correct, press the Turning
Knob, which now moves to the next character. If
changes are desired, rotate the Turning Knob to
the character desired.
NOTE: After the letter “Z”:
There is a “backspace” to correct mistakes.
There is an “enter” to end the Job Name
function.
Limit Switch/Die Sensor Names. To change the names
of either the Limit Switches or Die Sensors, you perform
the same acts that you would to change the job name.
1. Select a job number then hit the knob.
2. Once the job name is highlighted, turn the knob
clockwise until you highlight the Limit Switch or
Die Sensor fi eld you wish to change.
3. Hold in the knob until only the fi rst character of the
name is showing; now change the name. Follow
the same rules as you would for the job name
except you have only eight characters.
Reset Die Faults (RUN Mode Only)
Reset Die Faults is the default window that is highlighted
upon power up or when switching between RUN and
PROG. This function is used by the operator to reset a
die protection fault when one occurs.
Reset All Faults (PROG Mode Only)
Reset All Faults is the default window that is highlighted
when changing modes from RUN to PROG. It is used
by someone with a supervisory controlled key to reset
any and all faults that appear below the Limit and Die
protection section of the screens.
Minimum Speed
Minimum Speed is the point at which the Speed Output
#14 will turn on. If the press speed exceeds the minimum
and then drops below, a fault will occur.
If you set this to 0, then Output #14 will always be on
unless you exceed the maximum speed value. This
is also used by the Speed Compensation function to
determine compensation.
Maximum Speed
Maximum Speed is the point at which the Speed Output
#14 will turn off. If the press speed exceeds the maximum
a fault will occur.
This is also used by the Speed Compensation function
to determine compensation.
Running Time
This time increments only when the clutch is engaged.
The display is in Hours:Minutes. This value can be
cleared from PROG mode only.
