If {MANUAL MODE} is selected, the DLCM will enter the manual mode as soon as the signal loss is
detected. It will remain in Manual Mode until it is changed manually (press [MODE] on the front
panel). The benefit of using a {RESTORE TO: / ANALOG MODE} is that it's totally automatic. If so
programmed, the DLCM can shut itself down, wait for a signal to return, and then start itself back up.

RESTORE TO:

ANALOG MODE

Press

[UP]

RESTORE TO:

MANUAL MODE

The {RESTORE TO:} setting applies to both channels (i.e., there is only one setting).

2. With the desired selection displayed, press [ENTER].

RESTORE TO:

ANALOG MODE

The sub-screens for {ANALOG FAIL #1 / STROKE POSITION}, and {ANALOG FAIL #2 /
MOTOR SPEED} are identical with the exception of the number (#1 or #2) displayed at the end of
the first line of text. If for example {ANALOG FAIL #1 / STROKE POSITION} is selected, some sub-

screens will have #1 displayed at the end of the first line of text.

3. The first of two channel selection screens is displayed: Press [UP] or [DOWN]

ANALOG FAIL #1

STROKE POSITION

Press

[UP]

ANALOG FAIL #2

MOTOR SPEED

Select the desired channel and press [ENTER]. (For the purpose of this manual, {ANALOG FAIL #1 /
STROKE POSITION} will be covered.)

4. The menu for having the DLCM freeze at the last signal is displayed.

ANALOG FAIL #1

FREEZE @LAST SIG

To accept this action, press [ENTER] and then go to step 5.
If you desire a different action, press [UP].
a) The menu for having the DLCM shut the motor off is displayed.

ANALOG FAIL #1

MOTOR OFF

To accept this action, press [ENTER] and then go to step 5.
If you desire a different action, press [UP].
b) The menu for having the DLCM go to a default signal is displayed.

ANALOG FAIL #1

GO TO DEFAULT

To accept this action, press [ENTER].
c) The next display prompts for the percent of stroke or speed to be the default setting. Enter the

value using [UP] or [DOWN].

SIGNAL DEFAULT

0.0%

To accept this value, press [ENTER].

The {ERROR MESSAGE / ENABLED} – {ERROR MESSAGE / DISABLED} option is provided for
users that are operating in the two analog input channel mode, but are only using one analog signal
and have set up the other channel to “go to default” (e.g.: controlling motor speed, while leaving the
stroke at a fixed position like 50% or 100%). In this situation the system is configured to operate

without one of the input signals and the operator does not want to see the error message displayed.
