Appendix 3 / Centerline Guiding with One Detector 

 
The Centerline Guiding with One Detector feature allows for centerline guiding within the area of 
detection of one edge detector, as well as, either edge of the web within the edge detector. This 
feature can be used for applications that do not allow for standard centerline guiding with two 
edge detectors. 
 
To select Centerline Guiding with One Detector, set parameter 98 to a value of 1.  Centerline 
Guiding with One Detector can also be selected over the fieldbus interface, see page 103. 
 
When using a web browser to operate the EVO 150 select the applicable edge detector to begin 
guiding.
