5  Error After n Cycles 

The Error After n Cycles menu lets you: 

 

•  control the number of unsuccessful loading cycle attempts 

(maximum vacuum timer times out and proximity sensor does not 
sense a full hopper) before the 

Er. 1

  error message displays 

•  increase to prevent alarms while you refill the material supply on 

high throughput processes 

•  decrease to get earlier warning of material supply problems 

•  disable (

0

 

)

 if you are using a short maximum vacuum time for 

less-than-full dumps 

 

 

6 External 

0

The External Activation menu lets you: 

 

•  enable or disable recognition of the external system control contact 
•  disable for stand-alone operation 
•  enable if the hopper loader is in a central system and the external 

enable contact is in use 

 

 

7  Auxiliary Proximity Switch 

0

The Auxiliary Proximity Switch menu lets you: 

 

•  enable a customer-supplied auxiliary proximity switch (

2

 

)

 

This proximity switch is typically mounted low in the machine bin 
below the hopper loader, and is wired into the hopper loader as 
shown in Figure (14). When enabled, if the proximity switch senses 
an empty machine bin, the screen displays the 

Er. 2

 error message 

and an optional alarm activates. The hopper loader does not stop.
