HUB User’s Manual

Status Types: add, edit, or remove Event Status Types.

Go to this Line item to make changes to the default Status

Types or to add new Status Types. The TR units can

display up to 32 Status Types.

Status Setting: currently selected status template.

Display Name: title of the template.

Upper/Lower Left/Right: colored Andon light display,

settable to on, off, or flashing.

Expect Pulses: this box is checked if the sensor will be receiving input pulses from a moving line.

For example, the status of “Running” will expect pulses because the line is in operation, but “Down for

Service” will not expect pulses because the line has stopped. The default setting for “Job Setup” is

expecting pulses, but if in your operations there will be no movement on the line during setup you would

uncheck the expect pulses box.

Timeout Active: this box is checked if after a set amount of time (Pulse Timeout field in the “Update

Tracker Settings” screen on the TR unit) the TR will go into an “Undefined” status if the opposite of the

Expect Pulses setting is happening.

For example, if a TR is in the status “Running” and there are no pulse inputs, the TR will go into an

“Undefined” status, prompting the operator to set the TR to the correct status. Alternatively, if a TR is in

the status “Down for Service” and there are pulses incoming, the “Undefined” status is entered.

Target Active: this box is checked if the target/takt fields should increase during an event status.

For example, if a TR is in the status “Running” the takt will increase because the line is in normal

operation. If a TR is in the status “Job Set Up” the takt will not increase because the any incoming pulses

are considered a part of the setup process and not normal operation. Whereas the status “Out of

Product” will increase the takt because the line should procedurally not run out of products while

normally operating.
