Description Of Read Values, Pinch Protection

All values are reset and their measurement starts following activation of "Express up".

Max. force - Max. clamping force

Shows max. measured force during the latest closing cycle.

Purpose: To identify deviating slowness in the system.

Position of max. force (mm) - Max. clamping force position (mm)

Shows the position, in mm from bottom position, of max. measured force during the latest closing cycle.

Purpose: To show where fault diagnosis of the mechanical system should be focused.

Average force - Average clamping force value

Average value of the force in the latest closing cycle.

Purpose: To indicate how slow the system is, comparable with Max. force.

Force difference - Clamping force difference

Difference between Max. force and Average force.

Purpose: To identify mechanical variations.

Force difference first 20 mm - Clamping force difference first 20 mm

Measures the difference of min./max. torque during the first 20 mm following activation.

Purpose: To detect whether the window is unsteady during the change of direction, so-called "drawer effect"
