Screen Functionality
From this screen the user can switch jobs, thus recalling multiple job
settings at once. The system stores up to 60 jobs in non-volatile
memory.
From the Product Delay screen the time delay between product
detector trigger and application cycle can be adjusted. This delay can
be calculated by taking (5000 / linespeed in FPM) * the distance from
the product detector to peel blade edge in inches). This will yield the
delay in milliseconds to be entered on the screen. Some adjustment of
this value will be required to position the label on the product at the
desired location.
Only displayed if the system Apply Mode (
page 27
) is set to 2 Tamps, 2
Tamp/Blows, or 2 Blows. Calculated the same as above, but with extra
time to allow the second label to print and be ready for the second
application. If the second label is not ready in time, a Timing
Violation warning will be given.
This setting controls the extension stroke time. If the auto-retract
sensor is not used, this is the only setting that controls the retract of
the tamp cylinder. If the Apply Mode (
page 27
) is set for Blow, this will
be the duration of the blow cycle.
Only displayed if the system Apply Mode (
page 27
) is set to 2 Tamps, 2
Tamp/Blows, or 2 Blows. This controls the second application extension
time.
In this screen, a waiting period between the cylinder returning home
and the next label printed can be adjusted. This delay can be useful for
allowing the tamp pad to settle, before a label is advanced from the
printer.
