In applications where the equipment accepting product from the most downstream zone of ConveyLinx controlled conveyor requires a handshake interlock to know when the most downstream zone of the ConveyLinx controlled conveyor is occupied and ready to discharge the item, this can be achieved by utilizing both the Left and Right Aux I/O Pin signals. One of the Aux I/O Pin 2 signals needs to be set as an input to Lane Full the zone and the other signal needs to be configured to indicate As Sensor in Reverse Dir.
Assuming the most downstream zone is connected to the Left side of the module; we set the Left Pin 2 to Lane Full Interface from the drop-down box and make sure we click the “DOWN” arrow to indicate that the Left Pin 2 signal is to be associated with the Downstream Zone. Similarly, we select As Sensor in Reverse Dir for the Right Pin 2 signal and click the diagonal arrow to indicate that this signal is to reflect the status of the Downstream zone |
