| Positioning Load — Multiple Conveyor System — Programming a PowerFlex 40 drive to position a load in a multiple conveyor system. Two Proximity switches,"Decel" and "Stop" are used to position the load on the conveyor. A fast speed is used until "Decel" is made, at which the drive decelerates to a slow speed. When the "Stop" is made the drive stops. If the drive stops and "Decel" is past, the drive automatically reverses at a creep speed until the "Decel" is seen. The next Start signal sends the load to the next conveyor. |
