Note: The number in the display is in milliseconds (ms).

Calculating the Press's Stop Time Limit
After you know the press's actual stopping time, you need to add extra time to this number to
compensate for normal wear in your brake. Otherwise, WPC would stop the press as soon as
the stopping time increased just slightly. This extra time is referred to as "T bm." The
minimum value that you can set is 10 ms. The stopping time plus Tbm will be the stop time
limit setting.
