The Keypad
Figure 4, TMS Control Chassis Keypad
The keypad is used to enter and view settings, check equipment status, change modes,
clear error messages, enter passwords, and initiate machine operations. A brief
description of each button’s function follows. Some actions can only be performed if the
correct password is first entered using the arrow keys. For a complete list of the
functions and settings available using the keypad, see the TMS Chassis Logic Tree in
Section 4 of this manual.
HOME – The position of the drawbar at its rearmost limit of travel. The LOS (Limit
Optical Sensor) senses when the drawbar has reached the HOME position
and sends this information to the control chassis. At HOME, the pins are in
the UP position and the drive motor encoder counts are reset to zero.
UP ARROW – Used to scroll upwards through a list.
DOWN ARROW – Used to scroll downward through a list.
RIGHT ARROW – Used to scroll through and select an item in a sublist.
LEFT ARROW – Used to scroll backwards through a list or sublist.
CYCLE – Causes the pinspotter to cycle the pins up and down (or down
and up depending on their initial position).
EVEN/ODD – Switches the keypad and display functions back and forth
between pinspotters. The Arrow and Lane ID on the display
indicate which pinspotter is the active machine (the one whose
parameters are being displayed and whose settings will be
changed when the keypad is used).
CONTINUOUS CYCLE – Causes the machine to start and stop a repetitive pin cycling
(CONT CYCLE) routine. (See Section 2.)
