Skip: No T-Shirt/Sensor:
(US Patent No. 5,383,400)
The next menu selection under "OPTIONS" is "Skip" sensor.
This menu item is used to activate the "NO SHIRT DETEC-
TOR" option. Activation of the "NO SHIRT DETECTOR"
option may be accomplished in two ways.
First if you wish to command the system to dis-regard print-
ing on a particular pallet for what ever reason, you may
depress the Foot Pedal as that pallet begins its index cycle.
The second method is to allow the control system to auto-
matically determine the pallet to be dis-regarded by use of
the "NO SHIRT DETECTOR" sensor mounted to a portable
floor stand. To activate the Foot Pedal, use the "Arrow" keys
to place the flashing frame on the small box to the right of
the word "Skip". Now press the "RETURN/ENTER" key. The
indication will change from "Sensor" to "F. Pedal". To
change the indicator back to "Sensor", press the
"RETURN/ENTER" key once again.
InkDip Every:
(US Patent No. 5,649,479)
The next sub-menu selection under the "OPTION" menu is
"Ink Dip Every". This control feature eliminates the need for
the press Operator to manually scoop ink from the rear ink
well area of the screen, into the active image area of the
screen. The "Ink Dip Every" feature does this for you auto-
matically. Use the "ARROW" keys to locate the flashing
frame at the left of the first menu selection under "Ink Dip
Every". Now press the "ARROW RIGHT" key to locate the
flashing cursor on the value at the right which indicates the
frequency the InkDip activates. Using the numerical keys,
enter the desired number of print cycles before the ink dip
control feature activates. Now press "RETURN/ENTER" key.
For instance, if you enter the number "10" into the value,
then the "Ink Dip Every" feature will automatically retrieve
ink from the ink well area of the screen after 10 print cycles
have been completed. You may enter a value up to a maxi-
mum of "999". If you enter the value "0", the "Ink Dip Every"
control feature will not operate. (See Fig. 15 at the right)
Duration :
Duration is used to control the distance that the print car-
riage moves back into the ink well area. The maximum time
allowed is 0.70 seconds. The minimum setting is 0.30 sec-
onds. To adjust the duration, press the "Arrow" keys so the
the flashing frame is placed on time indication for duration
at the right of the screen. Use the numerical keys to enter
the desired time in seconds for the InkDip duration, then
press the "RETURN/ENTER" key. Your selection for InkDip
duration is now displayed in the time indication.
