    Chapter 1: General Description The standard 1996 Ram-Set consists of a transducer, transducer cable termination kit, controller, and output module. The transducer device is a magnetostrictive linear displacement transducer (LDT for short). The LDT consists of a fi xed guide tube assembly attached to an electronics package, and a non-contacting magnet assembly that moves up and down the guide tube.

    Chapter 2: Installation Instructions 3. Mount the supplied junction box to the crown of the press in an area free from obstruction. The fl exible cable from the junction box runs through the elbow assembly to the transducer. Run conduit from the junction box to the controller. Note: Transducer wires only in this conduit. A maximum transducer cable length of 30 ft.

    Chapter 2: Installation Instructions 12. Drift Window: Establish an acceptable drift window. If the slide moves outside of this window, the In Position relay denergizes. Typically 0.010 to 0.020 inch. Value Note: In any cases where F - 3 - 9 - 1 - ENT is used, steps one (1) through eleven (11) will be erased from memory and will have to be repeated.
  • Page 12 Chapter 3: Programming and Operating Instructions 4. Clear All Die #’s and Positions: This function lets you clear all die numbers and shut height values without affecting the other functions. Simply select “PROG” mode and depress: F - 7 - 5 - 3 - ENT. This will remove all die numbers and position values.
  • Page 13 Chapter 3: Programming and Operating Instructions Once the die number is selected and <ENT> has been depressed, the preprogrammed counter balance value and shut height value for that die # will be displayed to be verifi ed. Depressing <ENT> again will confi rm and enable a drive to the selected shut height and the counter balance for that die will be implemented.
  • Page 14 Chapter 3: Programming and Operating Instructions Example: To enter die number 1 and shut height of 10.000: STXZmmF1ED1E0000EEOT. To access data through the serial port, the ENQ ($05) character must proceed entries. Example: STXZmmENQF1ED1EEOT would cause the Ram-Set to return STXZbbACKF001D001 : 10000EOT. If commands are strung together in the same transmission, ENQ must precede each function that data is being requested from: Command Symbols...
  • Page 15 Chapter 4: Maintenance and Trouble Shooting The following procedures are intended as an aid to isolate system malfunctions down to fi eld replaceable elements. These ele- ments include; controller, output module, transducer and interconnecting wiring. Preliminary Checks Check System connections at the transducer, junction box, controller and output module to ensure that all connectors and wires are secure.

  • Page 17 Chapter 4: Maintenance and Trouble Shooting Outputs will not operate or continuously stay on. Problem: Output interface wire(s) disconnected, output driver blown, CPU problem or blown fuse on output module. Check all Cause: wire connections and output fuse. If check out proceed as follows: To check up and down relays put keyswitch in jog mode.
  • Page 18 Chapter 4: Maintenance and Trouble Shooting Note: Malfunctions due to the above can usually be cleared by removing, and then reconnecting power to the control- ler. The cause of such problems can be determined and eliminated. If removal and reconnection of power does not correct the problem, a controller failure has occurred.
