CONFIG GUN (F2)
GUN Configuration Parameters should not be
edited while the GUN is running. This includes
all operational modes.
System Time and Date
Displays the current date and time and permits
changing the same.
Language
This allows users to select between English and
one Alternate Language. The alternate language
text is stored on the flash drive or hard drive of
the PC in files named: TEXTMESS_ALT.TXT,
PARAMHLP_ALT.TXT, LABELS_ALT.TXT, SO-
LENOIDVALVES_ALT.TXT, and
HELP_ALT.TXT.
Channel Module DIP SW1 Settings
Displays the DIP SW1 settings for each installed
Channel Module.
Interface Module DIP SW1 and SW2 Set-
tings
Displays the DIP SW1 and SW2 settings for the
Interface Module.
- Mode
This parameter has three possible settings: OFF,
AUTO, and MANUAL.
OFF - This setting completely disables the gun,
removes its data from the main screen, and places
the channels tied to the gun available for use by
another gun.
AUTO - This setting is used when the user wants
to control both the flow rate and the ratio (if it is
a plural component material) of the applicator.
Any modifications to the GUN Config-
uration Parameters screen data are saved
only when the operator presses the "Store
Data" key (F5), otherwise the modifica-
tions will be lost when the screen is exited
with the escape (ESC) key.
NOTE
MANUAL - This setting is used when the user
wishes only to control the ratio of the material.
Users can 'demand' as much material as they wish
and the controller will deliver as much as possible
while keeping the ratio on target.
- Number of Channels
This parameter has three possible settings: 0,
1, and 2.
0 - This, effectively, disables the gun.
1 - This indicates that the gun is to be a single
channel, flow control only applicator.
2 - This indicates that the gun is to be configured
as a dual-channel, ratio controlled applicator.
- Master Channel
This parameter has eight possible settings: 1-8.
For single channel guns, it simply indicates which
channel will be controlling the flow control valve
and reading the flowmeter for this applicator.
For dual-channel guns, this indicates (normally)
which channel will be controlling the resin part of
the mixed material. It is always desirable for the
master channel to have the higher flow rate of the
two materials.
- Slave Channel
This parameter has four possible values: 2, 4,
6, or 8.
It indicates which channel will be the slave (typi-
cally the catalyst) to the master channel (selected
above) for ratio control.
- Clean Channels
This parameter has four possible values: NONE,
MASTER, SLAVE, or BOTH.
This setting determines which of the fluid regula-
tors (or MVR valves) are opened to full when the
unit is put in 'Clean Mode' for flushing and filling
operations.
Default JOB#
Sets the JOB# which is loaded at power ON.
