MachPro Lube System Setup

If your system has an oiler edit the lube settings. Pull down Configure -> Control, and select the Settings Tab. Scroll down to the Lube System settings. Enable the lube system, and adjust the settings:

choose an action trigger
set the lube output
set the time run time of the oiler
set the time between cycles

Adjust the values according to your machine's needs. Note that lube pumps vary widely in their output. Start conservatively and increase the values to achieve proper lubrication.

In the example below:

The lube system is enabled
It runs on software timer settings
But only when MachPro is enabled
It does not run a cycle on startup
The lube output is the MachPro software signal mapped to the pump output
There is an option for a pressure sensor feedback input
When the pump runs, it will run for 8 seconds
It will remain off for 5 minutes between lube cycles
This system is not using a PLC for the lube system
