  • Page 7: Basic Operating Proceedures

    BASIC OPERATING PROCEEDURES IMPORTANT Read this procedure in conjunction with procedures in your press manual. CAUTION 1. Switch on Power Key Switch and check that Emergency Stop Button is not depressed (rotate to release). The Power LED should illuminate. 2. Close press doors. If door is not properly shut the Door LED will remain illuminated and the only function that will work is the bale eject.
  • Page 8: Motor Operation

    In addition it allows for monitoring of a secondary safety door or device, and also pro- vides a full bale light. The standard kit provides 5 meters (15 feet) of cable between the PressMate Controller and the remote operator panel. For more details contact your local sales agent.
  • Page 9: Basic Servicing

    BASIC SERVICING The StarLogixs PressMate Controller is a state of the art electronic control system that is designed for long service free life. No part of the controller is serviceable, and should never be opened because there are dangerous voltages inside.

  • Page 12: The Hydraulic Pressure Switch

    THE HYDRAULIC PRESSURE SWITCH The hydraulic pressure switch is pre-adjusted, and field adjustment is not recommended. The switch set-point is adjusted to be about 150psi below the hydraulic system by-pass pressure. There are no mechanical sensors to detect the end of stroke of the main hydraulic cylinders.
  • Page 13: The Full Bale Switch

    THE FULL BALE SWITCH The full bale limit switch is situated on the front left- hand corner of the press, and detects if the left-hand cylinder is fully retracted when the pressure switch closes. If the pressure switch closes before the cylinder fully retracts then the material in the pressing chamber is carrying the total applied load and the bale is full.
  • Page 14: The Infra-Red Detection System

    THE INFRA-RED DETECTION SYSTEM The infra-red detection system detects material in the pressing hopper and if the Controller is active and the bale not full will cause the press to cycle until the beam is cleared (i.e. no material in pressing hopper.) It is a transmissive type system with the IR Transmitter located on the back of the press and the receiver inside the Controller.
  • Page 15: Machine Protection Features In Controller

    MACHINE PROTECTION FEATURES IN CONTROLLER The Controller incorporates a number of features to protect the ma- chine from sensor faults. The two main features are: • Excessive Cycling If the infra-red detection beam becomes obstructed and cycling of the baler does not clear the obstruction, then an unattended baler may continually cycle causing unnecessary machine wear.
  • Page 16: Controller Active Led

    THE CONTROLLER ACTIVE LED The second LED from the top on the Controller is the active LED. This indicates if the Controller is in full automatic mode. If the LED is flash- ing the Controller will start the electric motor and cycle the press if the infra-red detection beam is interrupted.
