  • Page 19: Signal Designation

    Signal designation The Sub-D interface of the Flipband has three analogue inputs, four digital inputs and three digital outputs. The supply voltage is fed via the same supply line. The supply to the control unit via the control voltage is separate from the supply of the motors via the load voltage.

  • Page 21: Referencing

    3 Referencing Once the supply voltage is connected to the logic and load feed, the belt begins to reference. This means that it starts the search process for the center position of the flip shafts. This process is mandatory in order to perform end positioning of the shafts after each flip process.
  • Page 22: Adjustment Modes

    4 Adjustment modes The Flipband supports different control profiles. The profile is selected via rotary switch on the Flipband. The adjustment options of individual rotary switches are listed below. Belt direction, "mode dir" rotary switch NOTICE Observe adjustment constellations! Only turn the switch to Setting 4 in mode dir if Setting 4 is also se- lected for mode rpm.

    CAUTION If Mode 4 is selected with "man rpm", a 5V level must be connected to U before the supply voltage U is switched on. Other- A_Csp Logic wise, the belt starts up. Flip direction, "mode dir" rotary switch The different rotating directions of the flip shafts are listed below. Figure 14: Flip direction mode The rotating direction of the flip shafts is permanently adjusted via the rotary switch.

  • Page 26: Afag Test Mode

    (PT1)) 4.4.1 Afag test mode The Afag test mode is intended for checking the toothed belt tension of the flipper shafts. This check must only be started with the belt disassembled, because the flipper must move freely during the check. The minimum current required to move the respec- tive flipper is evaluated.

    5 Control profiles The combination of rotary switches described in the previous chapter indicates the different control profiles. One of these profiles should be selected depending on the required flexibility and available control options.
