Arm Sensor
The machine has a sensor that checks if the polishing arm is up or
down. Use this check box to enable or disable this sensor.
AutoCal
Checking the “AutoCal” box enables the “Auto” button on the load
cell calibration configuration under “System Config”. When activated
the user can use the Domaille EZ-CAL Load Cell to automatically
calibrate the machine.
DE DataLink®
Checking the “DE DataLink®” box allows for the use of the DE Data-
Link® data collection system with the polisher. This is an accessory
software and hardware package that can be added to the polisher for
connecting the machine to a central database and control system.
The user can collect real time polishing data and track process and
polishing information with this system with minimal data entry. USB
barcode scanners are also available with the system.
Display Kg
Pressure can be displayed in either pounds (lbs.) or kilograms (kgs).

A CHECKED box will display pressure in kilograms and an
UNCHECKED box will display pressure in pounds.
Film Counter
Checking the “Film Counter” box activates a film usage counter for
each polishing step done on the polisher. After Film counting param-

will start to track the number of film runs that are done for each step
and it will prompt the user to replace the film once the film use limit
is reached (Fig. 10).
