® The Muirhead Programmable Lubrication Controller, part number 9252, is designed for flexibility and is used to automate the grease injection system on a machine. The programmable lubrication (lube) controller is capable of operating in many different modes to suit multiple lubrication systems available on the market.
Operation and Use The Muirhead ® Programmable Lubrication Controller has been designed with flexibility in mind. The system is capable of operating in many different modes which suit multiple lubrication systems. Control Unit The lube controller has been designed to be an in-cabin mounted device.
Outputs Pump output This connection is a positive switching FET output. Rated up to 8 A, this output is used to operate the lube pump. The active time period for this output is software configurable. Pulse output This connection is a positive switching FET output. Rated up to 8 A, this output is used to control a pulsing circuit to drive a reciprocating pump.
The following part numbers are required when programming the lube controller: Part No. Item 11199 Kit Programming Lube Controller (part number 9252) 2694 Adaptor, USB-to-Serial This software is a single executable (.exe) file and can be launched by double-clicking its icon.
Upgrading the Device ® If the version of firmware inside the device is out-of-date, then the Muirhead Device Tool software will detect this when a connection is first made, and the software will display a request to update the firmware. Click Yes, and the software will proceed to load the new firmware and will display the updating progress on a status bar.
Section 1 – Tabbed Browsing of Devices Each lube controller that you connect or simulate through the software is displayed in a tab. You can easily switch between devices by selecting the tab of the required device. Clicking the small tab with the gear symbol icon will display the home screen to enable connection of or simulate another lube controller.
Section 3 – Inputs Section The inputs section allows for the configuration of inputs for the operation of the unit. The inputs section is always on the left-hand side of the screen. Refer to Figure 8, section 3 in this document. Inputs can be configured to allow for various sensors and switching configurations to cater for a multitude of machines with differing input sensors or devices.
Options The options in the options section directly below the inputs section affect how the device behaves. Figure 12 Options section for a lube controller Option Description Lockout Pump When enabled, the lubrication pump is locked out after an open failure. Manual Cycles lubrication cycles are permitted when the lubrication pump has been locked out.
Section 4 – System State The system state section (Figure 8, section 4) displays the device information, diagnostics, counters and device configurations. The system state section is always the centre column of the screen. Device Information Device information consists of fields which can be edited to record details relating to the setup and installation of the device.

Timer Description Bank 1 Active Time that bank 1 is active during a lubrication cycle (default: two minutes). Bank 2 Active Time that bank 2 is active during a lubrication cycle (only applicable when 2 lube banks enabled) (default: two minutes). Bank 2 Skip Number of lube cycles that bank 2 is inactive for (i.e., skipped) (default: 0).
Section 5 – Outputs/Indicators The output/indicators section (Figure 8, section 5) allows for the configuration of outputs as well as options for the operation of the outputs. The output/indicators section is always on the right-hand side of the screen. Outputs can be configured to suit the requirements of the devices that they are required to drive. Layout of Outputs Section The output set-up options are listed in the output section.
® When running a simulation, the Muirhead Lube Controller software automatically overrides all inputs. Then the user must control the inputs to the desired states. The lube controller software will simulate how the lube controller would operate out in the field.
