The intent of this section is to familiarize the operator with the program flow and what
to expect with every keypress. Each screen on the display will be reviewed with
special comments to help clarify what is being asked on the screen. The program flow
is broken down into 5 sections with the main menu being the home postion. Reviewing
the flow chart in the back of this manual will help in understanding the sections.
SECTION1 —- F1=JOB ENTRY
SECTION2 —- F2=MANUAL MODE
SECTION3 —- F3=AUTOMATIC
SECTION4 —-F4=REVIEW JOB PARAMETERS
SECTION 5 —-RAMP=ADJUST ACCELLERATION AND DECELLERATION

The first screen to be displayed on the operator terminal will look like this
RAPID-AIR CORPORATION

After a few seconds, the display will clear and the following display will appear:
MAIN MENU
F1=JOB F2=MANUAL
F3=AUTOMATIC CYCLE
F4=REVIEW JOB PROGRAM

SELECT F1=JOB #

The first step in programming the servo feed is to select a job number which will be
used to store the parameters the operator inputs or recall the parameters which have
been previously loaded into the servo controller program. When the operator selects
F1 on the keypad, the screen will change to:
JOB SELECTION MENU
ENTER JOB NUMBER=XX
PRESS F4 KEY ONCE
CORRECT # IS ENTERED

The operator must enter a 2 digit number before proceeding to any other function. If
the job number the operator has entered has been previously stored in memory, or
entering a new job, the following display will appear:
JOB NUMBER-01 LOADED
F1=PROGRAM NEW VALUES
F4= DON’T ALTER VALUES
THAT ARE PREPROGRAMMED
