Submenu >APPLIC. SIGNALS
Only appears, if SIGNAL INTERFACE > Interface mode =
„Applic. signals“.
Applicator type function:
– If an applicator is used to attach the labels, the ap-
plicator type is set here. Alternatively, “Direct
Dispense” should be selected to dispense without
an applicator.
– Settings: [„LTP - LTPV“, PEP, „PEP Blow on“, „PEP
II Sensor“, ASA, „Reverse PEP“, „ Direct Dispense “,
„BTS“, „O-ring applicat.“, „LA-BO“, „LA-TO Timed“,
„LA-TO Sensor“]
“LTP - LTPV”: Sensor controlled tamp-on applicator.
The movement of the pneumatic cylinder is limited
by (touchdown-)sensors, which react to slight
pressure onto the product. The LTPV additionally
sucks the labels on with a vacuum nozzle.
PEP: The cylinder movement is limited by a setable
length of time. After the run out of this application
time, the applicator moves back into home position
“PEP Blow on”: PEP-type applicator with blow on
function: After run out of the application time, the
blow on function is activated. After run out of the
blow on time, the applicator moves back into home
position
“PEP II Sensor”: The cylinder movement is limited
by a (touchdown-) sensor, which signals the contact
to the product and triggers the backwards-
movement.
ASA: Vintage applicator. Same function as LA-BO.
“Reverse PEP”: Combined tamp-on/blow-on
applicator. The applicator moves to its end position
and “waits“ for the start signal. The start signal
triggers the blow on valve which is active for the
defined blow on time. After the run out or the blown
on time, the applicator moves to home position, gets
the next label and moves to the wait position.
“Direct Dispense” Labelling without an applicator
“BTS”: Setting for operation with Bad Tag
Separator, an additional unit that removes “bad”
RFID labels before they are dispensed.
“O-ring applicat.”: Vintage applicator.
LA-BO: Blow-on applicator. The label is moved by
airstream over a short distance onto the product.
„LA-TO Timed“: Setting for a time-controlled LA-TO.
Same function as PEP.
„LA-TO Sensor“: Sensor-controlled tamp-on
applicator.

gnals” on page 156.
