(1) SPEED: Displays current speed of machine in ft/min.
(2) COUNT: Displays the current job count. The counter
increaments every time the knife makes a pass over the
conveyor while the laminator is running. To reset the
counter, press the “R” button on this screen.
(3) T: This is a display tool only. When the symbol turns
to a black background with a white “T”, the temperature
of the lamination roll had reached the set point and
laminator is ready to run.
(4) C: This is a display tool only. The symbol turns to a
black background with a white “C”, when all of the safety
covers are closed.
(5) M: Misfeed override. When setting up the feeder, the
operator may want to override the misfeed sensor. Pressing
this button will override the alarm and allow the machine
to run while allowing gaps between the sheets. When the
button is black with a white “M”, the misfeed sensor is
active and will stop the machine when gaps between the
sheets are larger than 1/4”. When the button is white with
a black “M”, the misfeed sensor is overridden. It is not
recommended to laminate while the misfeed sensor is
overridden because film may stick to the nip roll and cause
a wrap up.
(6) R: Reset Counter. This button resets the current job
counter to 0.
(7) OVER LAP +/-: Pressing the “+” button increases
the over lap between sheets while pressing the “-” button
decreases the over lap.
(8) SCREEN NAVIGATION: The arrow buttons move
from one screen to the next. These buttons work the same
on all of the operator screens.

Technicians.
