Basic functions of the motorized traverse
in manual mode
7.1
Retract the sensors [Retract]
Select this function to move the sensors away from the web.
Key Function
Switch to manual mode. The LED is off
Enter the menu for changing the traverse parameters. The LED is on.
Scroll through the list of parameters to the menu point [Retract]
Confirming the selection will instantly start the function. The sensor
moves away for the web to outer position of the traverse.
Leave the menu for changing the traverse parameters. The LED above
the key is now off.
7.2
Automatically detect the web edge [Detect]
The traverses move in direction of the web. The sensor signal is permanently
monitored. The movement will stop as soon as the web reaches the center of the
sensor area. To start this function please, follow the instructions similar to "Retract
the sensors".
7.3
Approaching the home position as reference [RefRun]
To initialize the drives of the traverses the exact position of the sensors on the rail
hast to be set. The reference run provides this function. The traverses are
completely retracted. If they already are on this position they will travel inwards a
short range and return to the home position. To start this function please, follow the
instructions similar to "Retract the sensors".
7.4
Set an absolute zero point [SetZerPR] [SetZerPL]
With the setup of this zero point you will be able to use the values of the sensor
position as absolute dimension. This will be of advantage if you have installed 2
traverses or during the setup procedure your machine.
You can choose each point along the axis of your traverse as a zero point. Pay
attention to the following restrictions.
•
Max. offset ± 2000 mm
•
If you have installed 2 traverses both of them have to have the identical zero
point. Therefore you have to make a one-time measurement of the sensor
positions and the traverses.
