In applications where the equipment feeding the most upstream zone of ConveyLinx controlled conveyor requires a handshake interlock to know when the most upstream zone of the ConveyLinx controlled conveyor is empty and ready to accept a new 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 Wake Up the zone and the other signal needs to be configured to indicate As Sensor in Reverse Dir.
| Assuming the most upstream zone is connected to the Right side of the module; we set the Right Pin 2 to Wake up from the drop-down box and make sure we click the arrow to indicate that the Right Pin 2 signal is to be associated with the Upstream Zone. When the Right Pin 2 signal is energized, the upstream zone will run to accept an item | |
| Then we select As Sensor in Reverse Direction for the Left Pin 2 signal and click the diagonal arrow to indicate that this signal is to reflect the status of the Upstream zone | |
