Button functions and definitions
The table below gives the name along with an operational function description of each button displayed on the FIFE-500 Web Guiding System.
AUTOMATIC This button initiates the Automatic mode. Correction is applied to the web by moving the guide in response to the output of the sensor(s) that have been selected.
SERVO-CENTER This button initiates the Servo-Center mode. The guide is centered in its travel in response to the output of the internal
Servo-Center transducer.
MANUAL This button initiates the Manual mode. No correction is applied to the guide.
SENSOR SELECTION This button is used to select the sensor(s) to be used for monitoring the web position when the system is in
Automatic mode. Sensor selection is allowed in Manual and Servo-
Center modes only.
SETUP This button is used to enter the Setup Menus for configuring and adjusting the guiding system.
ARROWS These buttons are used to jog the guide. The direction of guide movement is configurable.
GUIDEPOINT ADJUST The two arrow buttons near the bar graph are used to adjust the System Guidepoint while in Automatic Mode or
Manual Mode. The button in the center is used to reset the System
Guidepoint to the default value, which is 50% of the sensor bandwidth. www.maxcessintl.com

2-4 FEATURES
BACK This menu navigation button is used to return to the previous menu level.
HOME This button is used to return to the Operator Level screen.
MENU ARROWS These buttons are used in the menu system to page forward/backward when multiple pages of menu choices are available. The arrows will appear disabled (grayed-out) when no more choices are available in the respective direction.
ACCEPT This button is used to save a changed value and return to the previous screen.
REJECT This button is used to discard a changed value and return to the previous screen.
Status bar definitions
The status bar located horizontally across the top of the FIFE-500 Web Guide Operator Level screen remains visible at all times. The number on the left side of the status bar contains the numerical address of the connected motor controller. The number on the right side of the status bar indicates a hierarchical screen number. The first numerical value indicates the operation mode (1=Manual, 2=Servo-Center, 3=Automatic). The second alphabetic character indicates the sensor mode (A=S1, B=S2, C=S1-S2). This screen number uniquely identifies each screen of the FIFE-500 Web Guiding System. The status bar also displays various icons, which are described on the following pages.
OPERATION MODE One of these icons will appear to indicate the operation mode of the FIFE-500 Web Guiding System. These do not appear on the Operator Level screen since the mode buttons already indicate this information. These will only appear while in the setup screens.
SENSOR One of these icons will appear to indicate the currently selected sensor mode. These do not appear on the Operator Level screen since the SENSOR button already contains this information. www.maxcessintl.com
FIFE-500 MI 2-263 1 B
2-5 FEATURES
MENU TIMEOUT The menu screens in the FIFE-500 Web Guiding
System close automatically after 3 minutes of touch screen inactivity.
The inactivity timeout option and the timeout value are configurable.
The clock icons will appear during stages of the timeout process as the inactivity timer counts down. If a timeout occurs, the respective menu will abort any changes applied and return to the Operator Level screen. Some service-related screens are immune from the timeout option and are indicated by the presence of the orange clock icon.
LOGIN AUTHORIZATION LEVEL When security has been configured, one of these icons will appear to indicate the authorization level of the current user. Security is disabled in the factory default configuration so these icons will not be displayed. All menu screens are accessible when security is disabled.
READ ONLY MENU When security is enabled, options are available to make menus “read only”, allowing an operator to view the settings but not change them. This icon will appear when the active menu is a
“read only” menu.
DIGITAL INPUT COMMAND This icon appears when a valid digital input command is present. Depending on the command, some touch panel controls may be disabled during this time. A red arrow in the down direction indicates digital input influence is disabled. A red up arrow indicates the digital outputs are disabled.
GUIDEPOINT CHANGED This icon appears when a new System
Guidepoint has been applied. This icon will appear on the status bar until the System Guidepoint remains unchanged for approximately 20 seconds.
EXTERNAL LOCK This icon indicates the acceptance of the “External
Lock” digital input command. Automatic guide movement is prohibited while in this state. www.maxcessintl.com
FIFE-500 MI 2-263 1 B
2-6 FEATURES
ASC ON Automatic Sensor Control (ASC) is enabled for the current sensor mode. See the menu description in the
FIFE-500 Web Guiding
System User Manual, Figure Sheet 2-262.
ASC ACTIVE Automatic Sensor Control (ASC) is enabled and the ASC state has been triggered. Automatic guide movement is prohibited.
See the menu description for ASC in the
FIFE-500 Web Guiding System
User Manual, MI 2-262.
MOTOR BLOCKED This icon indicates the motor is stalled.
COMMUNICATION ERROR This error icon indicates communication is not working between the operator interface and the motor controller.
VOLTAGE ERROR This error icon appears when the input voltage, motor rail voltage, or internal 12 volt power is outside acceptable range.
NETWORK ERROR This icon appears when the operator interface is unable to gain network control.
LINKED MODE This icon appears when the “linked mode” is active.
Linked mode is used in networked systems to send the Automatic,
Manual, and Servo-Center commands to all network devices simultaneously.
MOTOR TYPE FAULT This icon appears when there is no motor type configured.
COMMUNICATION FAULT This icon appears when a problem is detected with the communication signals. This can be caused by hardware or an addressing conflict in a networked system.
LINE SPEED ZERO This icon appears when line speed control is enabled and the sensed line speed is zero. Guide correction is inhibited in Automatic mode under these conditions.
MCP-05 SEEK If the MCP-05 option has been enabled, this icon will blink while a seek operation is in progress. www.maxcessintl.com
