GENERAL
To reset an alarm/warning press the "STOP" or "MENU" buttons.
When an error occurs using the TrueFeed, the display will indicate an error code and description.
Together with the displayed error an output contact will be switched.
The controller itself gives a beeping signal and the alarm LED will illuminate.
To distinguish a Warning or Alarm:
Warning: Warning output is ON, but the feeding unit continues running
(24VDC contact, pin 22-23 of the main board will be active,
for example to activate the alarm strobe)
Alarm: Alarm output is ON and the feeding unit stops running
(Potential free contact, pins 26-27 of the main board will be active, for example to
stop the injection molding machine)
Free programmable errors can be configured to an Alarm or Warning.
For setting the free programmable outputs to an alarm or warning, enter the ALARMS menu.
First the alarm history will be shown. The alarms and warnings will be stored here.
When you press the "MENU" button again you will enter the alarm configuration menu.
Here you can set the alarm or warning output with
