As the fiber is moved into the machine the screen will first display
'warning' and then when more fiber is fed through it will display
'active'. Eventually it will display 'error'; do not worry, this simply
means the buckle shuttle has moved beyond the sensing range. In
'error' mode the machine reacts as though it were in 'active'
mode.
For installing fiber with the buckle function disabled it will be
necessary to perform a test to determine the maximum torque
setting that can be used to ensure the fiber is not damaged. See
section 13 for details on how to perform this test.
Once satisfied that all settings are correct the installation can
begin.
Press start and the machine will begin the installation. It will ac-
celerate slowly as there is a soft
-
start function; this is to protect
the fiber from damage. Notice the distance readout increase and
also that the speed readout may
not always match the input
setting; this could be due to the
buckle being active or a high
resistance on the fiber.
