Tacho 2
All the same settings as for tacho 1 are available for tacho 2. Note: These settings
are only available if Tacho 2 is enabled (see Main Menu > Advanced Setup >
Configuration > Tacho 2).
Numeric Data
These are numeric settings that affect the operation of the tachos or the speed
detection algorithms of the GCM.
Note: Not all settings will appear in this list unless two tachos are configured (see
Main Menu > Advanced Setup > Configuration > Tacho 1,2).
The available settings are:
Zero Timeout
Inferred Speed
Speed Factor
Max Allowed Ratio Diff
Zero Spd Distance
Zero Timeout
This value determins how long to wait for a pulse from the primary tacho. If no
pulses are received within this time limit, the Logical output "No Belt Motion" is
turned on, providing the means for an alarm.
Note: This function is always enabled, regardless of feeder control mode. In
other words anytime pulses stop, for any reason, this Logical output will turn on.
Inferred Speed
This is the speed that will be inferred whenever the tacho function is set to
"None" (see Main Menu > Advanced Setup > Tachos > Function), and the "Belt
is Running" Logical input is on. The units are those of speed (i.e. ft/min or
m/min, etc.).
