    The Jobber Plus should never be accessed by anyone other than properly trained personnel so designated by the purchaser and or employer. If the machine operator is not properly trained to set up the machine or the Jobber Plus, then a setup person so designated should perform the setup.
  • Page 6 Jobber Plus. The machine on which the Jobber Plus and light curtains are to be installed MUST be capable of stopping motion anywhere in the stroke or cycle in a safe time as prescribed by the OSHA formula for safe stopping times.
  • Page 7: Jumpers

    Installation Instructions If you follow this step by step procedure, you will find that installing the Jobber Plus is easier than any other punch press control on the market. Jumpers Do NOT remove any of the factory installed jumpers until the control is installed and func- tioning without any additional components.
  • Page 8: Palm Buttons

    Programming the machine setup is done from a special setup menu using the programming keypad (Part No. 900-E00146). To enter the programmable functions of the Jobber Plus the machine cannot be in motion. Plug the ribbon cable into the back of the LCD display. The socket is keyed so it only goes in one way.
  • Page 9: E-Cam Programming

    If you selected “Single Speed” you will be asked to cycle the machine for a number of times until the control has determined that the machine is stopping within 5 degrees of TDC. MTCC Jobber Plus P a g e - 9...
  • Page 10 Because of limited space on the display instructions are sometimes truncated to fit the screen. The display above is asking you to cycle the machine by pressing the palm buttons and hold- ing them until the machine attempts to stop at TDC. When it stops, the display will show the angular position in degrees.
  • Page 11: Variable Speed Machines

    MACHINE SPEED SET UP COMPLETED Just as with the first (slowest setting) done previously, cycle the machine until the control determines the proper stopping angle. MTCC Jobber Plus P a g e - 11...
  • Page 12: Adjusting Tdc

    There may be times when you will need to make adjustments to the stop angle factor pro- gramed into the Jobber Plus. But before you do, answer these questions: Did you check to see if you have the proper counter balance pressure set? Proper counter balance pressure improves your stopping time and therefore the stopping angle can be more accurate.

    VARIABLE SPEED MACHINES: The Jobber Plus version provides automatically compensated top stop, “ACTS”. ACTS is only available when the user has selected VARIABLE SPEED from the machine setup menu. When you entered the four speed ranges during the initial machine setup the control auto- matically created a speed table by inserting additional angle settings between the four speed ranges, creating a total of seven speed ranges.
  • Page 14: Adjusting The Stop Max

    Adjusting the STOP MAX If after operating the machine you find that the stopping time is higher than determined by the test (usually caused by the normal heating of the brake lining during use), you can adjust the setting by entering the SETUP menu as previously described and selecting func- tion CHANGE STOP MAX.
  • Page 15: Micro Inch

    User Programmable Outputs The Jobber Plus version comes with two user programmable output relays. These relays will come on and go off at any programmed angle (rotary position of the machine). To set the cam relays enter the SETUP menu as previously described and select the SETUP USER RELAYS function.

    The Red and Green panel lights will flash in this mode of operation. The Jobber Plus is now ready to run. Apply 12 to 24 vdc to terminals 23 and 24, (these inputs should be from separate sources, and independent of each other for safe operation). The machine will cycle continuously until inputs 23-24 go low (de-energized), the Top-Stop push button is pressed or there is an emergency situation.
