Always switch off the unit at the end of the shift
EN
by pressing the Standby/Running button on the
control panel, or use the weekly timer, see
tion 7.2.3 Weekly timer.
5.4 Unit operation modes
FlexPAK has the following four operation modes:
1 Off mode
2 Standby mode
3 Running mode
4 Idling mode
See Section 6.1 Status messages
about each mode.
How the unit moves from one operation mode to an-
other is explained below. See also
chart showing how the unit goes through its four dif-
ferent operation modes.
As discussed in Section 5.3 Start the
unit is in Off mode, the unit can be put into Standby
mode with its motor off and the Filter Cleaning Valve
(FCV) closed by pressing the Standby/Running but-
ton. While the unit is in Standby mode, the unit can be
put back into Off mode again by pressing the Standby/
Running button.
The unit goes from Standby mode into Running
mode when it receives a pilot signal by a valve being
opened at one or more work stations (in other words,
someone starts to work). The unit's motor is now on
and the FCV is closed. The DIR_Time and SSR_Time
timers are not started, see
Section 7.2.1 SSR_Time

The unit stays in Running mode as long as there is an
active pilot signal. However, the unit can still be put
into Off mode by pressing the Standby/Running but-
ton.
Note that if only one workstation is connected to the
unit, or if only one work station is in use and work
stops at that one station, the pilot signal stops. If
there is more than one work station connected to the
unit, and more than one work station is in use, the pi-
lot signal only stops if work stops at all workstations
(in other words, all valves close).
When the pilot signal stops, the DIR and SSR timers
start. If work resumes at one or more work stations
within 10 seconds, the unit stays in Running mode.
The DIR and SSR timers are reset back to zero and are
stopped.
If DIR_Time is set for 10 seconds (default), and the
pause in work is longer than 10 seconds, DIR_Time
elapses. The unit then goes into Idling mode with its
motor on and the FCV open.
If a new pilot signal is sent within 12 minutes, the unit
goes back into Running mode. The DIR and SSR timers
are again reset to zero and are stopped. However,
if SSR_Time is set for 12 minutes, which is the de-
fault setting, and there is no new pilot signal within 12
minutes, SSR_Time also elapses.
The unit then goes into Standby mode until it either
receives a new pilot signal that puts the unit back
into Running mode, or the unit is turned off (in oth-
er words, put into Off mode) by the weekly timer,
