4. Wire Speed : Enter the transducer wire speed. The wire speed number can be obtained
from the transducer data plate. Because each transducer has its own unique wire speed, it is imperative the proper wire
speed is entered. Incorrect wire speed data will affect the system’s accuracy.
F - 9 - ENT - Wire Speed # - ENT
5. Count Direction : Establish proper count direction. The standard mounting position of
the transducer is with the rod end down. The top end of the transducer then indicates the upper-most position of the press
slide. In cases where inverted counting may be desired, proceed as follows: (otherwise skip step)
F - 1 - 0 - ENT 0 or 1 ENT
0 = decreasing value from top to bottom (standard)
1 = increasing value from top to bottom (inverted)

3. This unit has been set up to work in inches or millimeters. The operator can select
between working with inches (to 1/1000 of an inch) or millimeters (to 1/100 of a millimeter).
F - 2 1 - ENT 0 or 1
0 = Millimeter
1 = Inch
Default is inch mode (1).
When millimeter mode is selected, all programmable values are entered as millimeters except the wire speed. The wire
speed is still entered in inches per microsecond (i.e. the wire speed printed on the transducer’s can). This value will be
converted into millimeters internally.
The default and maximum values in the inch mode for the altered functions are:
Function
Number Number Number Description Default Value Range
Position 0 to 9899.99 in
8 System offset 48.000 in 0 to 99.999 in
11 Slow-down entry point 0.050 in 0 to 0.259 in
12 Upper limit 48.999 in 0 to 99.999 in
13 Lower limit 0.000 in 0 to 99.999 in
18 Ram “In Position” window 0.010 in 0 to 0.099 in
Any time the readout mode is changed, some of the system’s parameters will be reset and all of the die will be cleared to
refl ect the new mode. The default and maximum values in the millimeter mode for the altered functions are:
The default and maximum values in the millimeter mode for the altered functions are:
Function
Number Number Number Description Default Value Range
Position 0 to 9699.99 mm
8 System offset 9789.99 mm 0 to 2600.00 mm
11 Slow-down entry point 1.27 mm 0 to 7.00 mm
12 Upper limit 1300.00 mm 0 to 2600.00 mm
13 Lower limit 0.00 mm 0 to 2600.00 mm
18 Ram “In Position” window 0.254 mm 0 to 3.00 mm
