dosing pump with profilux 3

[Piotrek1974]

Hi everybody. I have problem to connect dosing pump to my profilux 3 Ex t. when i have conected to S1-S4 socket then pump 2 wrking all the time. If i have connected to S5-S8 all pumps working but i can control them manualy only. Automaticly with set up time dose ml etc does not start. I think S1-S4 and S5-S8 is reserved for my Pab power bar 5.1 but not sure. If someone will explain me how to do this i will be very happy.
Regards

you Need to tell your Profilux what S1-S4 is used for.
Search this Point at the Configuration Software and switch S1-S4 or S5-S8 to Dosing Pump 1-4.

Ok. do i have to change configuration for my power bar 5.1 PAB? i think it is using now S1-S4 and S5-S8 because there are 6 sockets.

Disconect the pab sockets,
Go to the system switch chanel menu in profilux control
Set s1-4 to digital, chose Programm numbers of a dosing station, follow the programm, chose not used numbers. Comment the pab sockets

Do as mentioned above.

NOTE
When you have the doser connected to the S1-S4 port, it will automatically be assigned to the S1-S4 switch channels by default.

Since you currently have a Powerbar 5.1, also assigned to S1-S5, there will be a conflict which is causing the 2nd pump to run based on the existing function assigned to S2 (for the powerbar).


The solution is to assign your dosing pump heads to switch channels that are not being used by the powerbar.
For example:

• Powerbar 5.1: Currently assigned to S1-S5
• Dosing unit: Assign to S6-S9

You can assign the numbering of your dosing pump by going to the Switch channels and outlets settings page, enabling digital comm. for S1-S4, click Program devices, select the doser, set the first pump head to start at 6, click OK.

After that is completed, go to your S6-S9 switch channels and set each function to:

• S6: Dosing pump 1
• S7: Dosing pump 2
• S8: Dosing pump 3
• S9: Dosing pump 4

Go to those dosing pump channels and setup your schedules.
