Section 5 Operation
The purpose of the Automatic Setup module is to allow automatic adjustment of such press
systems as air counterbalances, air cushions, air operated hydraulic overloads, and slide adjust
systems to greatly reduce setup time for different jobs, and to help ensure that these systems are
adjusted correctly for different jobs.
All operation of auto-setup functions, other than automatic adjustments to previously stored
values when the OmniLink II Press Automation Control or the OmniLink 5000 Press Control
recalls a job, start from the Auto-Sets screen. This screen is displayed when the AUTO SETS
softkey on the Main Menu or Press Control screen is pressed. The Auto-Sets screen shows all
configured functions and allows their settings to be adjusted. Figure 5.1 shows an example Auto-
Sets screen. Note that each configured function (slide adjust, counterbalance, or cushion) has its
own box with name, settings, position or pressure, status, and fault.

Figure 5-1 Example Auto-Setups Operation Screen
The main features of this screen are:
a)
The module status gives the overall status of the auto setup module as a whole instead of
the status of a single sub-system, such as a counterbalance. When the module is
functioning properly, thus should read “OK”. See section 6.1 for other diagnostic
messages.
