OPC Remote ClientThe optional OPC Remote Client software package, part 1051821, allows the iTrax Spray Monitor System OI to be viewed on additional computers on your Ethernet network. The software package includes a CD-ROM containing the software and an installation guide.
OPC Data LoggerThe optional OPC Data Logger software package, part 1051822, has powerful graphing and data archiving capabilities and comes with its own online help system (English only). When the OPC Data Logger is installed, a shortcut is created on the Windows desktop. The software package includes a CD-ROM containing the software and an installation guide.
Can-In-PocketThe Can-In-Pocket (CIP) feature uses a proximity sensor to verify that a can is in the spray pocket before the spray gun fires. CIP allows the spray monitor to verify that a timer signal is received for every can that is detected.
When CIP is used, the spray monitor must receive both a timer and CIP signal each time a can is detected and a gun fires. If either the CIP or timer signal is not received, the Operator Interface displays a fault.
This option requires one CIP proximity sensor to be mounted in the spray pocket and wired to the CIP inputs on the left side of the Spray Monitor module. Refer to the Spray Monitor instructions and talk to your Nordson representative for more information.
Actual Spray Duration OutputThis feature allows external monitoring of the actual spray duration as determined by material flow. It can be used for external closed loop control of the real spray duration or as another indication that flow analysis has occurred. For either case, it requires that the external PLC or timer be wired to the OUT output terminals on the Spray Monitor.
If the spray duration is very short, the iTrax system can compensate for a PLC that has a scan time that is slower than the actual spray duration. The value you set as the Minimum Spray Output is the minimum number of milliseconds that the Spray Monitor will apply for every flow analysis. Refer to Minimum Spray Output for more information.
Refer to the Spray Monitor instructions and talk to your Nordson representative for more information.
