How does the system know what event caused the Down Time?
A:  When a Down Time has been detected, the Data Logger Program will trigger a “Delay Screen” to display on the Operator HMI Touch screen. Through this “Delay Screen”, the operator will can select the reason for downtime. Delays are broken down into three sections: Area, Subarea, and Reason.

How does the system detect down time?
A:  The Insight Data Logger Program, in conjunction with few lines of PLC code, will monitor the Shredder Motor current. The Insight Logger will prompt a Delay Screen on the Shredder Operator HMI any time the current drops below 10-12% of Idle Current for around 10-15 seconds.  The System records when the delay occurred and ends the delay when motor current rises above the Idle Current set point.
