The Jam Timer for a given Upstream or Downstream zone is used for both detecting an Arrival Jam and a Sensor Jam. The Jam Timer should be set as the maximum expected time it takes for a carton to travel from one zone to the next plus a small addition to prevent nuisance jam occurrences. The default value for the Jam Timer is 5 seconds and the valid range of values is from 1 seconds to 65 seconds.
The Auto Clear Timer is the amount of time that the logic maintains the jam condition before auto resetting the jam. The default value for the Auto Clear Timer is 5 seconds and the valid range of values is from 0 seconds to 65 seconds
Enter new values for either or both the Jam Timer and/or Auto Clear Timer and click the corresponding Set button for each. The Set All button will apply these same settings for the range of modules indicated at the top of the dialog |
