MODES OF OPERATION
START/AUTOMATIC MODE
The system can be put in start (run) mode by pressing and releasing the “START/STOP” push button when the
button is blinking. Whenever the light is lit solid (green light) means the system is in running mode.
STOP MODE
The system can be put in stop mode by pressing and releasing the “START/STOP” push button. Whenever the light
is not lit solid (green light) means the system is in stop mode (closed or blinking).
ALARM MODE
When the system is in alarm mode, the red beacon on top of the control panel will be ON to warn the operator that
something is wrong. Looking at the HMI will help determine the problem.
RESET MODE
Each time a manual screen is accessed you will be prompted to initialize the system before start mode is possible.
The reset mode is active only when the “START/STOP” button is pushed for two (2) seconds then released. If the
machine is out of home position during the initialization, each moving part will reach its home position i.e. trigger
block under the “home proximity sensor”, carriage at the down position and cut and wipe arm completely retracted
and all other options will also return to their home position.
MANUAL MODE
This mode is active only when the manual screens are accessed on the HMI. When accessing these manual mode
pages, the machine goes in STOP mode by itself. Each time the machine has been operated manually, the system
will ask for re-initialization before putting it in start mode.
