Program Mode
SmartPAC 2 uses the following counters:
•
Strokes counter: Counts the number of strokes made by the press during a job. When a
user-programmed preset value has been reached, SmartPAC 2 top-stops the press and
displays a message (see Counter Preset Reached Messages, page 7-2). The counter resets
to zero (0) when the message has been cleared.
•
Good Parts counter: Counts the number of strokes made by the press during a job unless a
tonnage monitor, die protection, or process monitor (i.e., ProPAC) fault occurs during a
stroke. SmartPAC 2 top-stops the press and displays a message (see page 7-2) when the
programmed preset value has been reached. When the message has been cleared, the
counter resets to zero (0).
•
Total Hits counter: Counts the number of hits on the programmed tool during all jobs.
The Total Hits count is incremented by the Strokes counter whenever the tool is loaded.
When the programmed preset has been reached, a flashing message displays in the Status
Box in Run mode. This counter can be used to indicate when die maintenance is required.
•
Batch counters (3): Incremented by the Strokes or Good Parts counter, depending on the
user-programmed setting. Each batch counter can be set to initiate one of three actions
when the programmed preset is reached: Top Stop, Toggle, and Pulse.
When a Batch counter is set to TOP STOP, SmartPAC 2 top-stops the press and displays a
message (see page 7-2), as it does for Strokes and Good Parts counters. This setting is
useful when stopping the press to change bins or chutes before resuming production.
When a Batch counter is set to TOGGLE, SmartPAC 2 switches the state of a ProCamPAC
output from Open to Closed or from Closed to Open. This option is useful for activating a
parts diverter.
When a Batch counter is set to PULSE, SmartPAC 2 actuates a ProCamPAC output for a
specified length of time. The output On time must be specified when making a Pulse
setting. You can connect this output to any device that needs to be turned on once every
fixed number of strokes (i.e., the Batch counter setting).
