DEScriPTioN This manual describes how to use the pendant, a hand-held control unit for the ELS4 control systems. The pendant allows the operation of essential functions away from the control, and the large rotary encoder enables the precise positioning of the machine axes.

START Note: The encoder wheel allows the axes to be moved step by step and the number of passes to be selected before a cut. On the ELS4 Pro, it is also possible to set the spindle speed (see right).

Switches the spindle on or off, short pressure for counterclockwise rotation, long pressure for clockwise rotation. When the spindle is running, pressing again switches off. (ONLY ELS4 PRO) Allows the spindle speed to be set with the encoder wheel. (Only PRO) Shift key.

EiNSTELLuNgEN The pendant can be operated with all ELS4 Pro and Basic from software version 11. If the soft- ware is older, an update must be installed first! The rotary encoder on the pendant allows the axes to be moved stepwise but also permanent- ly, so there is a step mode and a move mode.

STEP-MoDE (0-3, 0=Standard) In mode 0, when the FN key is released, a large step is made with one pulse, and a small step is made with the FN key held down. Turning faster switches to the driving mode. With the switch pressed a fast speed is made, with the switch released slow speed Mode 1 is the other way round in terms of step size: without pressing the switch small steps are output, with switch pressed large steps.
