Operator Console is machined out of solid aluminum and features a durable, user friendly membrane keypad.

Controller is programmed either by using the industry standard ISO code (G & M codes), or by using the Position List programming feature.

Controller uses standard 120 VAC single phase power.

Controller functions in English (inches) or Metric (mm) units.

Left or right hand configuration parameter allows the unit to be installed to the left or to the right of the workstation.

The Console provides full program Editing functions.  Dry Run and Optional Stop features are provided as well as Single Step mode.

There are two displays: One large 8 digit 7-segment display and one 4x20 character backlit LCD display.

Three I/O ports can be directly controlled from Console keys (F1, F2, F3) as well as by the programs.

Four different Counters are maintained. These Counters can be reset from the Console, or from the programs.  The Part counter is continuously displayed on the Console for availability to the Operator.  The Total Actuation counter (cut, drill, punch, etc.), the List Counter (number of times the Position List has been executed), and the Program Cycle counter (number of times the G & M code programs have been executed) are accessible and maintained by the Supervisor.
 

Counter functions are accessible in manual increment mode as well as from all program modes.
 

There is an -10VDC to +10VDC industry standard interface analog output port used to control the servo motor for the linear axis.

There are 3 communication ports: One RS-232 and two RS-485.

Output I/O: There are 14 relay contact outputs
(7 assigned, 7 free, 10 under M code control)

Input I/O: There are 22 opto-isolated inputs
(10 assigned, 12 free, 15 under M code control)

Industry standard Quadrature encoder ports: One is provided as standard and three are optionally available.
 

Write and download programs from any PC to the controller's PC port (RS-232).  The IBM PC host download program is included with the unit.

Program memory is stored in EEPROM circuits.  Optionally, additional EEPROM circuits can be added for additional program storage space.  Standard capacity is configurable; such as 55 programs of 25 lines or 11 programs of 125 lines, etc. This capacity can be increased.

The supervisor mode, protected by a physical key lock, is used for modifying traverse speeds and acceleration parameters.
 

Parameter settings are provided for specifying system values such as zero position, offsets and left hand or right hand operation as related to the workstation.

Parameters for offsets are automatically calculated in the distance that the stop or the material is to be moved.

Several other parameters are provided for at installation time and are automatically calculated, where required, when the material or the Stop is to be moved.
 

An Emergency Stop (E Stop) switch is located on the Console as well as an "I/O" input port to permit the installation of additional E Stop switches.
