To measure the encoder constant it is required that two objects put on the conveyor at a distance of
1 meter (between the objects' leading edges) move one after another in front of the photodetector
selected as the source of the trigger signal (the parameter of a project open for printing/being printed: |
| Trigger source ) when:
– The built‑in measuring tool is active,
– The encoder is measuring the conveyor belt travel speed.
To measure the encoder constant:
1. Press
| |.
The general settings window is displayed.
2. Press next to the parameter | | Encoder constant .
The measuring tool is displayed (see drawing).
3. Press to start measuring.
The measured encoder constant is displayed in the measurement
window.
4. Press to enter the measured value as the value of the printing parameter Encoder constant .
The encoder constant measured with the measuring tool is entered as a printing parameter.
The measurement is finished.
5. Press to save the setting.
If the above‑mentioned procedure cannot be followed ( e.g . the printer is not provided with a photode -
tector), the encoder constant can be calculated on the basis of the following data:
– Number of pulses per revolution given in the encoder data sheet,
– Circumference of the roll.
The calculated value shall be entered as the value of the printing parameter | |
Encoder constant [pulse/m].
