Graco 310554V User Manual

Entering Automatic Mode

To put the PrecisionSwirl module into Automatic mode:

1.

Make sure the POWER indicator, shown in F

. 12, 

is lit at the control assembly. If it is not, turn the 
MAIN power switch to the ON position, turning on 
power to the PrecisionSwirl control assembly cir-
cuitry. 

2.

Set the CONTROL SELECT switch to AUTOMATIC. 

3.

Press the RUN/ENABLE (black) button. Make sure 
the green RUN indicator, shown in F

. 12, is lit at 

the control assembly.

The PrecisionSwirl orbital dispenser is now enabled. 
When it receives a 24 Volt RUN/ENABLE command 
from the robot, the PrecisionSwirl orbital dispenser 
motor starts and reaches full speed in about one sec-
ond. The orbital dispenser motor stops when the 24 Volt 
RUN/ENABLE command is removed. 

4.

Leave the control assembly in this state during nor-
mal operation.

Leaving Automatic Mode

To leave Automatic dispense mode and idle the module:

1.

Press the STOP (red) button. 

2.

Set the CONTROL SELECT switch to MANUAL. 

3.

Make sure the green RUN indicator, shown in 
F

. 12, is off at the control assembly. 

1.

Make sure the POWER indicator, in F

. 12, is lit at 

the control assembly. If it is not, turn the MAIN 
power switch to the ON position, turning on power to 
the PrecisionSwirl control assembly circuitry. 

2.

Set the CONTROL SELECT switch to MANUAL.

3.

Press the RUN/ENABLE (black) button. Make sure 
the green RUN indicator, shown in 
F

. 12, is lit at the control assembly.

The PrecisionSwirl orbital dispenser motor starts imme-
diately. 

Stop Manual Swirling

To stop manual swirling and idle the module:

1.

Press the STOP (red) button. 

The PrecisionSwirl orbital dispenser is now disabled and 
will stop swirling material. 

2.

Make sure the green RUN indicator, shown in 
F

. 12, is off at the control assembly. 

Circuitry on the relay board monitors the motor speed to 
verify that the motor is functioning properly. 

When the motor functions improperly, the circuitry on 
the relay board activates the motor fault alarm. The 
alarm turns on when:

•

the motor speed has not risen within the +/-50% tol-
erance range within five seconds after startup. 

•

the motor speed is outside the tolerance range for at 
least five seconds while operating.

When a fault occurs, the motor fault light on the control 
panel illuminates, and the alarm relay activates sending 
the fault signal out via the automatic control cable. The 
alarm remains turned on until the fault condition is cor-
rected or the run command is removed.

A fault will also be generated if any of the front panel 
controls are not in the correct position for automatic 
operation (power switch, enable switch, manual/auto 
switch).

You are about to place the system under robotic 
control. Make sure dispensing will not endanger 
people or equipment before proceeding.

The system is now ready to dispense. Make sure 
dispensing will not endanger people or equipment 
before proceeding.
