Gag Feed Program
The standard “GAG” feed program is a multiple feed length program within a specified
job number. The different programmed feed lengths will be referrred to as sequences.
Each sequence can be repeated many times with a choice of using any combination of
8 outputs per sequence . For each output there is an input that can be used to verify
that the output device has moved. Although this is the standard program, Rapid-Air
can program other configurations in any combination to meet the customer’s
requirements.
The standard “GAG” feed program has 10 jobs with 10 programmable sequences per
job. Each sequence can be a different feed length which can be repeated up to 99
times. The following chart depicts the previous write-up.

TOTAL OUTPUTS 08
TOTAL INPUTS 08
The job, sequence, repeats and outputs are software programmable. The output will
activate when the sequence is activated and remain activated until the next sequence.
The input will be checked when a press mounted switch is momentarily activated, at
this time, if the programmed inputs and the outputs do not match then a fault will be
displayed on the screen, automatic will drop out and the press should preform an
emergency stop. The operator’s manual will explain how to activate and use the inputs.
