Output - Equipment Function - 28 - WARNING HORN

Equipment Function - 28 - WARNING HORN

This equipment function designates the chosen output to fire the warning horn hardware.  The system will attempt to fire this hardware prior to starting the conveyor.  This output will automatically turn off as per its configuration.

Time Out

This defines how long the horn signal is to be turned on after a stop conveyor event is cleared, and how long the horn signal is to be turned on prior to conveyor start.

Output Logic

This defines for the system what "off" and "on" mean.  

N/O Normally Open

When set to N/O Normally Open, the system will hold low (turn off its relay or command via communication protocol "off" to equipment) its signal while the output is at rest.  Then when the system decides its time to turn the output "on", it will turn on and energize its relay, or command via communication protocol "on" to the equipment.

N/C Normally Closed

When set to N/C Normally Closed, the system will hold hi (turn on/energize its relay or command via communication protocol "on" to equipment) its signal while the output is at rest.  Then when the system decides its time to turn the output "on", it will turn of and deenergize its relay, or command via communication protocol "off" to the equipment.

Include in the WetDown procedure

Enabling this (slider moved to the right/blue) will instruct this output to turn itself on upon "WetDown" request from the user.  For more information regarding wet down, please see article Wet Down - What is it?

Motor Type

Motor Type determines how the Cruz Control Car Wash Controller is to fire this output.  

0 - None

A motor type of "None" indicates the controller is to fire this physical output. Physical outputs are those that are designated "CRx".  Motor City Wash Works offers multiple physical output configurations for purchase, up to a maximum of 128.  Please consult with your sales representative for more information.

1 - TeSys

A motor type of "TeSys" indicates the controller is to fire an attached TeSys Bus Coupler motor starter via ModbusTCP communication. These are often referred to as "network driven" outputs.  All Cruz Control Car Wash Controllers support 25 TeSys outputs; these are numbered output 128 through output 153.

2 - VFD

A motor type of "VFD" indicates the controller is to fire an attached variable frequency drive via ModbusTCP communication. These are often referred to as "network driven" outputs. All Cruz Control Car Wash Controllers support 85 VFD outputs; these are numbered output 154 through output 239.

3 - PLC

A motor type of "PLC" Indicates that the output interacts with another Motor City Wash Works Cruz Control enabled Device to carry out the I/O operation necessary via modbus TCP. These subsystems include but are not limited to the Dry n Shine and Glow Wash.
