Sterlco SSL and SSIL Series Hopper Loaders - Manual (Page 42)

42
Menu 5 Error After n Cycles
0 to 8 Cycles, Default = 3 Cycles
The Error After n Cycles menu lets you:
• control the number of unsuccessful loading cycle attempts
(maximum vacuum timer times out and proximity sensor does not
sense a full hopper) before the
Er. 1
error message displays
• increase to prevent alarms while you refill the material supply on
high throughput processes
• decrease to get earlier warning of material supply problems
• disable ( 0 )
if you are using a short maximum vacuum time for
less-than-full dumps
Menu 6 External Activation
Enable/Disable, Default = Disable (0 )
The External Activation menu lets you:
• enable or disable recognition of the external system control contact
• disable for stand-alone operation
• enable if the hopper loader is in a central system and the external
enable contact is in use
Menu 7 Auxiliary Proximity Switch
Enable/Low Bin Op/Ignore, Default = Ignore (0 )
The Auxiliary Proximity Switch menu lets you:
• enable a customer-supplied auxiliary proximity switch ( 2 )
This proximity switch is typically mounted low in the machine bin
below the hopper loader, and is wired into the hopper loader as
shown in Figure (14). When enabled, if the proximity switch senses
an empty machine bin, the screen displays the
Er. 2
error message
and an optional alarm activates. The hopper loader does not stop.
