“Waiting for Top”. When the press does reach the top and all other necessary conditions are
satisfied, the slide will go to the slide setpoint.
d) If a job is recalled when the slide adjust switch is not on, the slide adjust system will display a
status of “Waiting S/A Switch”. When the slide adjust switch is turned on and all other
necessary conditions are satisfied, the slide will go to the slide setpoint.
e) When a job is recalled, the slide will not complete the auto adjust sequence until the
counterbalance system, if present, has at least reached operating pressure. While the slide is
waiting it will display a status of “Waiting for Cntr-Bal”. This allows the counterbalance to take
up any clearances in the system for a consistent setup.
f) If a slide adjust system is stored in a job with a slide setpoint of 0, then when that job is recalled
the current setpoint will not be replaced and the slide will not move. This is to accommodate
intermediate jobs in a setup that may need to cycle cushion pressures before the slide moves.
