Currently only LaserSafe safety controllers are supported.

This parameter is used to specify whether bend guard is used or not.

By default, normal is chosen which means bend guard is used. If “No safe guard” is chosen, then machine is considered without bend guard.

This parameter specifies the type of safety controller used.

Currently only LaserSafe is supported. And safety types available for LaserSafe are as follows:

This parameter defines the COM number of serial port to which the safety external device is connected. Such a device can be a PLC, safety PLC or an angle measurement system. Right now, only one safety system is supported as follows:

If a device is connected, the control and the device can exchange status information or press commands across the serial connection.

NA

This parameter defines the number of stations used in the machine.

If number of operator is set to 2, then inputs from both the station is required to operate the machine.

This parameter defines the type of operating switches used in the machine.

Generally, the press brake machines are operated using 1 set of foot pedal for up and down motion respectively. In certain cases, hand switches are also used for operator convenient.

This parameter specifies how the hydraulic valves are controlled.

If the valves are controlled by safety controller the parameter needs to be set as YES else NO.

Side doors safety press brakes are often needed to allow for material loading, unloading, and maintenance access.
