Instruction Manual

1.0 Switch-On / Switch-Off the Control Panel With the main switch, located on the side, the control panel can be turned off idle. Only the dry contacts which are provided by the customer will not be switched off through the main switch. After turning on the main switch or reactivated power supply after electrical break down or after any other disturbance the Rossilator should be set into basic position before put into operation. This is to be done by pressing the ON button on display. As soon as the Rossilator reaches basic position it will be deactivated automatically. Before the main switch will be turned off, attention should be paid to all Rossilators, that they are deactivated and in basic position. During maintenance the control cabinet is to be switched off and the main switch must be locked.

James Ross 4.0 Changing of Values

PLC - control panel

Changes can only be done if the affected Rossilator (station) is deactivated (OFF button) a) dial into the menu with the adjustment which needs to be changed b) press OK button the chosen adjustment flashes on display c) press OK button the courser is flashing at a digit of value - with button LEFT and RIGHT the courser can be moved partially - with button UP and DOWN the value is to be changed - with button DEL the value is to be put to 0 d) OK button the value changed will be transfered e) ESC button the adjustment will be finished f) ESC button 2x Exit, without transferring any change 5.0 Error Message In appearance of disturbance the red LED ERR is lighting, the display is blinking and Defect is shown. Immediately the Rossilator pauses and the dry contact for the water valve releases. For this reason the watersupply can be stopped and damaging of the wire and felt can be prevented. The status dry contact is flashing in beat of a second. With ESC button the mistake can be quitted.

If the Rossilator is being switched ON and the failure is not removed the error warning will be shown again. possible sources for a failure are: a) motor is not rotating b) sensors are out of order error recovery: for a) electrical: check of motor fuse, motor cable and connection assembly mechanical: smooth running, connecting shaft is alright for b) electrical: check of fuse, sensor cable, connection assembly and functionality of proximity switches

James Ross 7.13 Manual Operation

PLC - control panel

The Rossilator can be moved manual with courser buttons in both directions. The courser buttons work as contactors. With first contact the Rossilator starts, with next contact the Rossilator stops. ATTENTION !! In this function there is no check of basic position and final position. (motion- and homesensor are deactivated) In this function the Rossilator could be moved against the mechanical limit stop and therefore could be destroyed in a mechanical and electrical way.
