F4: Config Job

When F4 is selected from the Main Screen, the

operator will be prompted to select the gun num-

ber they wish to examine and/or edit parameters

for and what Job Number they wish to examine/

edit. At that time, the following screen will appear:

Ratio

The allowable range of values for this parameter

is any number from 0.001 to 99.999.

This is the taget ratio of resin to catalyst that the

controller is going to try to maintain while triggered.

The ratio of 1 for the slave channel is assumed.

For example: if 12.345 was programmed here,

a ratio of 12.345 parts of resin would be metered

into 1 part of catalyst. If a value less than 1.000

is programmed here, the flow of the catalyst will

be greater than the flow of the resin. For exam-

ple: if 0.250 was programmed here, a ratio of 4

parts of catalyst (slave channel material) would

be metered into 1 part of resin (master channel

material).

A value of 65 or higher will cause only resin (single

component) to flow. (The ratio tolerance bar-

graph, the B Channel bar-graph, the ratio and all

B Channel text are not shown on the main screen

for single component ratios.)

Flow Setpoint

The allowable range of values for this parameter

is any integer from 0 cc/min to 10,000 cc/min.

This is the target flow rate for the output of the

fluid panel associated with this gun.

There are 6 function buttons defined for use from

the Channel Parameter Screen:

F1: Modify

- This button allows the user to step

through the possible options for this parameter

or a numeric keypad is presented if a numerical

value is required.

F2: Edit Master

- This button allows the user to

switch to viewing and editing the master channel

parameters.

F3: Edit Slave

- This button allows the user to

switch to viewing and editing the slave channel

parameters (if it is a 2 channel gun).

F5: Send to RCS-2

- This button takes the

data displayed on the current screen and sends

it to the interface card where it is then stored in

non-volatile memory. Any changes made to the

parameters on this screen will be lost if the screen

is exited prior to sending it to the interface card,

using this button.

F9: Read in File

- This button allows operators

to load the parameters contained on this screen

from any media. They are stored in a file named

chanconfig.par.

F10: Save to File

- This button allows opera-

tors to save the parameters on this screen to any

writeable media. They are stored in a file named

chanconfig.par.
