LogiStop
What are the Ultimate Limits used for?	The LogiStop encoder/limit assembly includes 2 mechanical limits that are designed to be wired in series with the machine's motor operating device, such as a contactor, DC drive, etc. The limits must be wired such that if they are activated, the switches will bypass the LogiStop outputs and shut the machine off directly. The switches can be wired for normally open or normally closed operation.
Can I connect more than 1 machine to a single LogiStop control?	No. Only 1 machine can be operated per LogiStop control.
Is there a communication bus that will allow multiple LogiStops to be connected together?	No. Right now the LS-1 is a stand alone device. This may change in the future. Check this site periodically for updates.
Is there a IEEE, RS242, RS422, DMX, or other communication port on the LogiStop?	No. Right now the LS-1 is a stand alone device. This may change in the future. Check this site periodically for updates.
What will affect the precision of the LogiStop control?	Two things can affect the LogiStop's precision: RPM to the encoder. If the input rpm is greater than 35 the LogiStop will lose precision due to an encoder resolution that is too high. If the output drive device of the machine, drum, sprocket, etc. has a large diameter or is connected to an output with a large pulley ratio, the device will appear to have a loss in precision. Actually the LogiStop is stopping with the same degree of accuracy, but the large diameter is amplifying the small degree of imprecision.
Can I use a variable speed machine with the LogiStop?	Yes. Provided the maximum rpm attained does not exceed 35.
Can the LogiStop be set up for use on a 220 Vac circuit?	Yes. The LogiStop can be configured at the factory for use on a 220 Vac, 60 Hz power source.
