Tool Tray

WARNING: This Tool Tray logic is for MASSO G3 and MASSO Touch only and is available in Beta v5.100b or higher.

 


The following syntax is used for Tool Changer inputs and outputs:

 

  • “Tool Changer - Output 4” means Tool Changer - 4 and it is an output
  • “Tool Changer - Input 4” means Tool Changer - 4 and it is an input

 

 

Note: Any tool changer input or output can be assigned to any Input or Output on MASSO.
 

The tool changer number does not refer to a physical input or output port.

 


  • Tool Changer - Input 4 – Tools Tray UP OK signal
  • Tool Changer - Input 5 – Tools Tray DOWN OK signal

 


 

  • Tool Changer - Output 4 – Move Tools Tray UP
  • Tool Changer - Output 5 – Move Tools Tray DOWN

 

 

 

INFORMATION: All input and output signals can be inverted by selecting the input or output in the list and pressing the space-bar on the keyboard. These settings are automatically saved.

 


Tool Tray Logic – Type 1

This logic uses a single output to move the tray up and down (or slide in and out).

 

Do not assign “Tool Changer - Input 5” when using a single output for tray UP/DOWN.

 

 

Tray Up

 

  • "Tool Changer - Output 4" goes HIGH to move the Tools Tray UP
  • The system waits up to 6 seconds for "Tool Changer - Input 4" (Tools Tray UP OK) to go HIGH
  • If not detected, an error is generated

 

 

Tray Down

 

  • "Tool Changer - Output 4" goes LOW to move the Tools Tray DOWN
  • The system waits up to 6 seconds for "Tool Changer - Input 4" (Tools Tray UP OK) to go LOW
  • If not detected, an error is generated

 


Tool Tray Logic – Type 2

This logic uses two outputs to move the tray up and down (or slide in and out).

 

  • Outputs are only active while the tray is moving
  • Requires both Tool Changer - Input 4 and Input 5

 

Tray Up

 

  • "Tool Changer - Output 4" goes HIGH to move the Tools Tray UP
  • The system waits up to 6 seconds for "Tool Changer - Input 4" (Tools Tray UP OK) to go HIGH
  • If not detected, an error is generated
  • Output 4 then goes LOW

 

 

Tray Down

 

  • "Tool Changer - Output 5" goes HIGH to move the Tools Tray DOWN
  • The system waits up to 6 seconds for "Tool Changer - Input 5" (Tools Tray DOWN OK) to go HIGH
  • If not detected, an error is generated
  • Output 5 then goes LOW
