Auxiliary Output 1
Auxiliary 1 is normally closed (N/C), or On. The output opens, or turns Off, when a fault
condition occurs, an E-stop string opens, or a light curtain is interrupted while the press is
running. The output can also be programmed to turn Off during an Interrupted Stroke (see
page 4-3 for an explanation of Interrupted Stroke).
Aux. Output 1 response to an Interrupted Stroke is controlled by option switch 8 on the WPC
2000 Main Processor board. Switch settings are shown in Table 2-6.
When switch 8 is set to OFF, Auxiliary Output 1 opens, or turns Off, at the occurrence of an
Interrupted Stroke. When switch 8 is set to ON, the output turns Off during an Interrupted
Stroke only when there is also a fault or Emergency-stop condition; otherwise, the output
remains On during an Interrupted Stroke. See Auxiliary Output 1 Response to Interrupted
Stroke, page 3-31 for additional details.
The switch 8 ON setting allows the press to be “inched” during an Interrupted Stroke, when
the WPC 2000 is in Two-hand Maintained Single-stroke mode. Normally, in Two-hand
Maintained Single-stroke, the operator must hold down the Run/Inch palm buttons until the
press reaches its Top-stop position in order to avoid another Interrupted Stroke. With switch 8
set to ON, the operator may release the Run/Inch buttons while inching the press to Top-stop
without initiating an Interrupted Stroke.
Auxiliary Output 1 can be wired to a customer-supplied control relay and used to stop
auxiliary equipment such as scrap choppers, conveyors, etc. when one of the conditions
described above causes the press to stop. When a warning beacon is connected to the control
relay, the beacon illuminates when a fault occurs and Aux. Output 1 opens.
