Note
(1)
: if the data acquisition system is disabled, the angular position of the weight will be in the 6 o’clock position.
In table T17.2 the symbol “H12” indicates that the angular position of the weight is at 12 o’clock while the symbol “H6” indicates that
the angular position of the weight is at 6 o’clock.
The machine data acquisition systems are defined as follows:
•
Semi-automatic when the Distance and Diameter data are automatically acquired with the Distance/Diameter sensor while
the data on the width must be manually entered;
•
Automatic when all data of the rim is automatically acquired with the two sensors.
Automatic or Semi-automatic machines with disabled sensors (due to malfunctions or other reasons) become fully manual machines.
The data rim must be entered manually and the angular position of the weight follows the rules of the manual machines.
17.2 Wheel Type selection (Wheel Type)
The machine allows choosing between three different Wheel Types as listed in table T17.3.
