Enables the pump drive. When the system is powered up or the drive faults, it needs to be enabled.
Disables the pump drive. This is useful for maintenance. It also is need to clear some drive faults; dis-
able the drive and then enable it.
Indicates if the pump drive is disabled or enabled.
Indicates pump motor position. This is a useful reference to where the pump is. Units are revolutions.
This is used to send the pumps to the home position. Note the home position is the point in the dis-
pense cycle when the pistons begin metering material.
This starts a pump dispense cycle. Green indicates the pumps are in a dispense cycle. This signal
works the same as the start cycle hard wired input.
This is used to jog the pumps in the forward direction. This is used for maintenance.
This is used to jog the pumps in the reverse direction. This is used for maintenance.
Used to start data logging when the system is powered up. See Appendix C - Data Logging U81923

Setup Home
This screen is used to set the home position and adjust
the home position based on where the piston begins to
enter the metering tube. See Appendix A - Homing
Pumps for more information.
Icon Description
The Enable/Disable Drive push buttons and indicators function the same as the main screen.
The motor has an absolute encoder built in that retains the position even when powered down. In the
event the encoder cable is disconnected between the drive and motor, the home position (zero) will
need to be set again. This sets the new home position. See below for more details.
The Adjusted box shows the adjusted position value set for home. The actual value shows the motor
position as it is incremented with the up/down keys. The units are in motor revolutions.
These keys bump the position of the motor forward or backward. The current motor position is located
in the box marked “Actual”.
This rehomes the pumps. The home cycle sends the pump to the reload (retracted) position and then
to the Adjusted home position. This push button functions the same as the one on the main screen.
Once the new home position is determined, this moves the Actual value into the Adjusted value. This
will always be the new home position.
This resets any drive faults that occur.
This resets any drive faults that occur that shutdown the drive.
Turns on the power circuit to the pump drive. When the system is powered up it needs to be powered
up.
Turns off power to the pump drive. Note 24VDC is still supplied to the drive, this only turns off the
power circuit.

Feed Control
Icon Description
This indicates the tank status: No Levels Used = system is set up without any level sensors, High
Level = the high level switch is tripped, Low Level = material is below the low level sensor, Filling =
the tank is auto filling, Material Present = tank is loaded, Fill Fault = the amount of time to fill the tank
has been exceeded, Accumulator Mode- feed is accumulators, Sensor Fault = the tank sees material
on the high level sensor but not on the low level sensor.
Accumulated time readout when tank is filling in seconds.
Tank Mode: Choose how feed is set up. Low Level Shutdown is used to disable pumps when either
tank has a low level. Engage Alarm is used to sound the audible alarm when the tanks is low (the
pumps stay enabled). Engage Autofill is used to automatically refill the tank when the low level is
sensed. Accumulator Mode is when pumps are feed with accumulators instead of tanks. Disable feed
controls is used when level sensing is not needed. Note both tanks are set up in the same mode.
In Auto Fill Mode, either tank can begin filling by pushing the Start Fill push button or when material
goes below the low level sensor. The filling stops when the high level sensor is tripped or the Stop Fill-
ing push button is pushed. Note the Stop Filling button stops filling on both tanks.
This is where the operator sets the amount of time it takes to fill the tanks. If the tank doesn't fill within
this amount of time, a fill fault occurs. This only is enabled in Auto Fill mode.
In Low Level Shutdown Mode, once the low level sensor see the material is low, it allows the pumps
to cycle however many more times is set on this counter.
This silences the audible alarm.
When a fill fault occurs, this pushbutton resets it.

Setup
NOTE: These values are set at the factory and typically
do not need to be changed.
Icon Description
This enters the pump size used for calculating shot size and flow rates. The units are mm2. For exam-
ple if An LC1960 metering assembly (960 pump) was on the A side, 960 is the value entered.
This is the gear reduction (if any) used between the servo motor and actuator. If there is no gear box,
enter '1'.
This is the speed the actuator moves during the reload and home cycle in mm/sec.
This is the metered stroke or the distance the piston travels in the pump tube. This value is used for
calculating shot size and flow rates. For standard PR70's the value is 1.5”.
This is the reload stroke or the distance the piston travels to the retracted position to reload the pump.
For standard PR70's the value is 1.0”. This value may be less for thinner materials to shorten cycle
times.
This is the lead of the actuator in millimeters per motor revolution. The typical value for the PR70 is
10.
These pushbuttons choose the type of PR70, either the fixed ratio frame or the variable ratio frame.
These pushbuttons allow the pump speed to be set as a fixed value entered by the user on the
Shot/Flow screen or to be a variable speed set by a user entered voltage on an analog input in the
PLC. Note the remote speed is not active in Pressure Mode.

Shot/Flow Setup 1
Icon Description
Picks the operating mode for the pumps. Off Mode disables the pumps. Pressure Mode allows the
pumps to cycle within a pressure window to deliver a defined shot size at a defined flow rate. Shot
Mode allows the pumps dispense a defined shot size at a defined flow rate. Continuous Mode allows
the pumps to cycle continuously at a defined flow rate. Operator Mode lets the operator determine the
shot size by how long the start device is actuated at a defined flow rate. In operator mode, the pumps
must be retracted with an external customer signal or the “Home” push button.
If the system is equipped with a dispense valve, this sets the mode that it will operate. Open Mode
holds the dispense valve open. Close Mode holds the valve closed. Auto Mode opens the valve when
the pumps are dispensing and closed the valve when the pumps are done. Note cycling the pumps
with the dispense valve in Close Mode and no other valves open will cause the servo motor to stall
and fault.
If the system is equipped with a pressure transducer, this displays the current material pressure at the
outlet.
If the system is equipped with a pressure transducer and the pump mode is set to Pressure Mode,
these values determine when the pumps will stop and start. If the High Limit is set at 100psi and the
Low Limit is set at 50psi, the pumps will cycle until the pressure reaches 100psi and stop. The pres-
sure will drift down and when it gets to 50psi the pumps will start up again. This repeats until the value
in the shot size is reached. Units are pounds per square inch (psi).
This sets the shot size (cc's) and flow rate (cc's/sec) for ten programmed shots. Push the button on
the left of the values to pick the shot to dispense. The push button will change green to indicate the
chosen shot/flow rate. Push the shot size or flow rate field to change the value.
This is used to send the pumps to the home position. Note the home position is the point in the dis-
pense cycle when the pistons begin metering material.
The top row shows how many total strokes the pumps will take to get the user entered shot size. The
bottom row shows how many strokes have been taken as the pumps cycle.

Icon Description
Mixed Material Pump Pressure Setpoints (psi): For RTM applications, this box displays the current
pressure of the mixed material. The user can enter a high limit and low limit. When the machine is set
to pressure mode, the pumps cycle until the high pressure limit is reached, then the pumps stop and
the mixed material pressure drifts down below the low limit and the pumps begin to cycle again.
Current Pressure: This displays the current A and B pressure of the pump.
Low Limit Warning: This is a user settable pressure for the A and B pumps. If during pumping the low
limit pressure is not reached (due to a bad piston or leak), the low limit trips and the audible alarm
sounds. The pumps can still run during this warning. The silence alarm button turns off the alarm.
High Limit Warning: This is a user settable pressure for the A and B pumps. If during pumping the
high limit pressure is exceeded, the high limit trips and the audible alarm sounds. The pumps can still
run during this warning. The silence alarm button turns off the alarm.

Temperature Gains U81923 Only
See Appendix D - Setting Temperature Gains U81923 Only for information on setting temperature gains.
High Limit Shut Down: This is a user settable pressure for the A and B pumps. If during pumping the
high limit pressure is exceeded, the high limit trips and the audible alarm sounds. The drive shuts
down and pumping stops. The silence alarm button turns off the alarm. The pressure must be relieved
to restart the drive.
NOTE: Pressure transducers must be plugged in for the pumps to cycle.
NOTE: If the pressure exceeds 3000 psi, the drive will shut down. This is a factory setting and cannot
be changed by the operator.
Shot Mode Purge Timer: Off/On. This turns the purge timer off and on. When the purge timer is on,
the pumps will cycle after a period of inactivity. Note this is only active in shot mode. This timer can
also be used to recirc material if equipped with the proper hardware.
Shot Mode Purge Timer: Shot Size/Flow Rate. These are the values the user can enter to determine
how much material to purge and at what flow rate. When the purge timer times down the pumps cycle
at these parameters. When the operator takes the next shot, the regular shot parameters are used
again.
Shot Mode Purge Timer: Purge Timer (sec). This is the user entered value that determines how long
the pumps will sit idle before they purge. Note when the timer times down the audible alarm sounds
for a brief time to warn the operator the machine will cycle.
Shot Mode Purge Timer: Time before Purge. This show the purge timer timing down.
