Changes made for Pathfinder 5226 controllers.
On some double folding machines the grippers are controlled through the hydraulics and have sensors that are hydraulic based for the state of the grippers. One problem that comes from this is that if the system does not have enough pressure built up the sensors will not detect the state of the gripper, but when the pressure is built up it will turn on the states input. Since the controller did not tell the gripper to move this unexpected state change creates an error.
To counteract this some logic was put in to initialize when needed. The controller now checks if the system pressure is under 20% and if the grippers have pressure feedback it will let the system get to 70%. During this time limit switch error conditions for the gripper are ignored. Once at 70% the controller will re-initialize the grippers and move on to what was going to happen.
