parameter is currently selected. Softkey 1 (the uppermost vertical softkey) will change its description
based on the parameter and, when pressed, allows the currently selected parameter to be changed. The
up and down arrow keys move the editing cursor from one parameter to another. See Appendix A for
examples of setting up each kind of system. The features of this screen are:
Help The “Help” box at the bottom of the screen changes depending on the parameter
that the editing cursor is currently on. It gives a short version of how the
parameter is used.
Slide Slot Corresponds to the physical slot number (SS1 in the example of Figure 4.3)
selected for configuration on the auto-setup card. The “NEXT SLIDE SLOT”
softkey will cycle between SS1 and SS2.
Hardware Detected This will be “Linear Transducer” for 5000-10B option boards or “Rotary
Transducer for 5000-10C option boards. If there is no option board installed in
that slot this should read “None Detected”.
Shutheight The current slide position reported by the transducer. NOTE! This number will be
incorrect until Cal. Position and Orientation are entered during configuration.
This is reported as a convenience in this screen cannot be changed by the user.
Name Use the “CHANGE NAME” soft key repetitively to cycle through the available
names for this system (Slide Adjust #1, Slide Adjust #2, Not Configured). Stop
when the desired name appears. This name will appear on the Auto-Sets screen.
Mode Use the “CHANGE MODE” soft key to cycle the status from ON to MAN to
OFF and back to ON. ON means the OmniLink 5000 automatically adjusts to the
new shut height associated with a job when that job is recalled from memory, but
only if the Slide Adjust OFF/ON selector switch is turned to the ON position.
MAN means the OmniLink 5000 can control the shut height but the shut height
can only be changed from the “Slide Adjust” screen. A RECALLED job will
NOT change the shut height, although an operator can cause the system to
automatically adjust to a new shut height by turning the Slide Adjust OFF/ON
switch to the ON position, entering the desired shut height value in the “Slide
Setpoint” row, and pressing the “AUTO ADJUST” softkey. OFF means the 5000
will not automatically adjust the shut height, and will ignore any errors from the
system. Operators can always manually jog the slide into position through the use
of the “JOG UP” and “JOG DOWN” softkeys. These keys appear when the Slide
Adjust OFF/ON switch is in the ON position regardless of whether ON, MAN, or
OFF is configured. This value should typically be set to ON.
Shut Height Units All shutheight parameters and the shut height actual position can be displayed and
entered in inches or millimeters. Use the “CHANGE UNIT” softkey to toggle
this setting between inches and millimeters. Note that values already entered will
be converted to the new unit.
