Load Initial Configuration Values
This chapter describes how to prepare the machine to run clamp and
ejector control profiles. Major topics include how to:
use configuration command block worksheets
set your accel/decel ramp rates
set pressure control limits
set velocity control limits
enter and downloading your worksheet values
This chapter helps you determine and enter values into the clamp and
ejector configuration blocks. The configuration blocks provide the QDC
module with information on how you want to run your clamp and ejectors.
Important: Do not start this chapter until you have:
spanned your sensors, and moved hydraulic cylinders (chapter 3)
jogged the clamp and ejector (chapter 5)
