SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
The operator must be trained for working with the
machine on which the numerical control is installed. Improper use of the numerical control can cause
heavy damage on equipment and/or injuries to peo­ple.
Modification of machine parameters can cause im-
portant material damage or lead to irregular product quality.
The rear panel may only be removed by a qualified
technician (danger of electrocution). Do not expose the numerical control to excessive
humidity so as to avoid any risk of electrocution and any deterioration of the equipment.
Make sure the numerical control is disconnected
from the mains power before carrying out any clean­ing. Do not use liquids based on alcohol or ammo­niac.
In case of malfunction of the numerical control, call a
technician. Do not expose the numerical control to direct sun
rays or any other heat source. Do not place the numerical control in the neighbour-
hood of magnetic equipment such as transformers, motors or devices which generate interference (weld­ing machines, etc.)
Replace fan filters at regular intervals so as to avoid
overheating.

CREATING A PRODUCT

This paragraph explains how to programme a product as well as the method for correcting and recording it.

THE SEQUENCE PAGE

This page displays all the bending information for the current sequence. That is the requested position of the Y and X (R, etc.) axes, the pressure, the gauge retraction, the crowning, the dwell time, etc.
Important This page displays the result of the calculations made when programming a
product in the L-alpha page with definition of the bending order. The operator can modify these values if necessary (especially the retraction, the dwell time, the top dead centre). However he must avoid directly modifying the Y and X values calculated by the DNC. If modifications should be necessary for these axes, the correction page has to be used.
Hint An operator can directly programme a product in this page, without "pass-
ing" through the L-alpha page and definition of the bending order. This simplifies the manipulations a great deal, since all the information re­quired for the bending are on this page.
To reach the sequence page, press the The first press displays the dimensions page in large characters.
A second press displays all the dimensions and functions of the current se­quence in small characters.

The field between the Rx and the retraction value serves to define the retraction mode. _ = the beam stops at the CP and waits till the
retraction is made, in order to carry out the bend.
1 = the beam stops at the CP, then continues
immediately, at the same time as the retrac­tion is carrying out.
If nothing is programmed in this field, the axes start automatically from the BDC, from the CP or from the TDC, depending on the choice made in the machine parameters.
If 1 is programmed, the start will be made as a function of the configuration made by the con­structor.
- In most of the configurations, it will be suffi­cient to give a down command. At this com­mand, the axes take position, then a second down command has to be given, in order to move the beam.

PROGRAMMING ON THE SEQUENCE PAGE

In this guide, it is considered that the DNC is configured so as to be op era­tional (i.e. machine and tool parameters programmed).
The operator has 2 methods available for programming.
The faster
Direct programming.
Direct programming is the faster method for an experienced operator, be­cause all the programming of the product is done on the same page. This makes it possible to programme the positions of the axes directly, and it cal­culates the depth of bending according to the angle entered.
With calculation of the development
The L-Alpha method.
The L-alpha method makes it possible to enter a profile to bend with the ex­ternal dimensions and angle of each face. The DNC will calculate the devel­oped length: After having programmed the sequence of bends, the DNC will calculate the position of the gauges. Explanation of this method in chapter on page 37

CORRECTION

It can happen that the angle bent is slightly greater or less than the angle pro­grammed.
The operator has then the possibility to introduce the real value of the angle bent. The DNC will correct the Y1 and Y2 axis values accordingly.

Programme or call the product. Switch to semi-automatic mode. Execute first bend. Measure the result. Switch to programming mode.
Enter the measured angle into the COR field (see above). The DNC
automatically calculates the corrections to be made to Y1 and Y2.
If necessary, make the corrections to the gauge axes. Bend a second product on the first bend to check the corrections. Move to the following sequence and then proceed in the same way for
all subsequent sequences.
When all the bends are correct, switch to automatic mode and proceed
normally. The correction entered above is applied only to the current sequence. Every other sequence must be corrected individually.
Product-by-product correction is possible in the CORRECTION page (see explanation on page 71).

This page allows to display a list of searched products according to one or more criteria like the code number, the thickness, the bending length and/or the unfolded length.
Under the heading --CRITERIA-- are displayed the different criteria accord­ing to which it is possible to search for a product. These criteria can be combined, that is it is possible, for example, to ask for the list of all the products stored using a specific tool pair and having a par­ticular material thickness.
The products meeting the defined selection criteria are displayed on the sec­ond half of the screen.
To make a search by criteria, proceed as follows:

work me mory.
Calling a product is possible from all pages on which the cursor can be

Attention: The called product "erases" the product already in the work
memory. Pay attention to save, if necessary, the current product before calling another product.
Introduce the product number in the P field or the code number in the
CODE field.
Leave the cursor on the field which has been programmed just now.
Press
The product requested is then copied into the work memory (the original of this product is, of course, conserved in the internal mem­ory).
