Enabling or disabling touch varies depending on the state of the settings of parts used in the project or the state of the connection with the external Device/PLC. This section explains each setting's Touch Enable / Disable conditions.
Simultaneous use of parts with interlock
The Interlock installed on individual parts and global interlock can be used simultaneously, but when simultaneously used, the global interlock will take priority.
For example, even if the interlock for the individual parts is released, touch is disabled for that part if it is in a state of global interlock.
Specifies the address of the external Device/PLC
When the address of the external Device/PLC is designated as the global interlock address, Touch Enable Condition cannot be determined until the connection with that Device/PLC is established. Therefore, regardless of [Enable when Bit is ON]/[Enable when Bit is OFF], the global interlock will be enabled.
However, if disconnected once a connection is established, the status will be the same as prior to disconnection.
Touch Enable Condition: Enable when Bit is ON
Touch Enable Condition: Enable when Bit is OFF
Even in the case of multiple PLC Connections, as long as a connection is established with a PLC where an address is allocated in the global interlock, the global interlock operates regardless of whether the connection with other PLCs has been established or not.
Display settings for each part that indicates the state of the Interlock can be applied to the interlock condition for that part. It cannot be applied to the state of global interlock.
Parts settings that allow group function with Delay or Auto OFF
When entering a state of global interlock (touch is disabled) during the operation of the parts, touch can be enabled until the operation of the parts is completed or touch can be disabled throughout operation.
Group function with OFF Delay and Auto OFF
When the parts that allow the group function with OFF Delay and Auto OFF is changed to a Global Interlock Condition (touch is disabled) during a momentary operation, the momentary operation takes priority during Delay or Auto OFF. It will not enter the state of global interlock (touch is disabled) until the Delay is completed or the auto OFF setting period has elapsed.
ON Delay, 2 Points Pressing Delay Function
For ON Delay and 2 Points Press Delay Function, if the condition is changed to the Global Interlock Condition (touch is disabled) during the Delay, the delay is canceled, and the Global Interlock Condition (touch is disabled) is activated.
