Chapter 6 The relationship of the relays, commands & cable output 6-1. Pushbuttons/ Selected switches; Joysticks operation 1). Pushbuttons/ Selected switches For knowing Pushbuttons and selected switches what corresponding relays are, users can directly refer to “ corresponding Relay” on function setting page.
Page 21
2). Joysticks operation In any axial movement of Joystick#1 and Joystick #2, users can manipulate the relay configuration via software that joysticks could be arbitrarily set at any speed. For example, as Fig. 6-1-2 shown, when operating the Joystick “1Y North” to 1-speed the RY7 energizes;...

1). The total number of relays of SAGA1- L40 and the fixed relay figure(s) on Pushbuttons & Selected Switches: SAGA1-L40 provides totally 40 relays (RY01 to RY40). Among these 40 relays, an individual pushbutton can only be entitled one relay; Selected switches (SWA, SWB) own 2 relays respectively;...
Page 23
2). The number of being used relay(s) of Pushbuttons and selected switches should always be determined initially. As the number of being used relay on pushbuttons & selected switches has been finalized, then the remaining relay(s) will be available assigned to axes of joystick #1 &...

6-5. Illustration B 1). Hypothetical Conditions: More specifically, the same scenario with Illustration A except selected switches wouldn’t be used (4 additional relays instantly remained). 2). The result of Relay Configuration: Joystick #2 Y-Axis would entitle two additional relays, Relay27 to Relay38, in order to satisfy the 12-relay requirement, then rest of two remaining relays would be entitled by Joystick #2 X-Axis, Relay 39 and Relay 40.
