[Upper point calibration]
Upper point calibration should be performed at first run of the device, after positioning of the carriage with knob on the
dipper top and after moving the carriage with service buttons on control electronic unit when system does not trace performed
steps (distances). To start the upper point calibration procedure, press button ‘INIT UP POSITION’ and wait till carriage reach its
upper position and stop with limit switch.
[Manual operation mode]
For simple vertical motion of the dipper arm for certain distance you may use manual control option – buttons ‘UP’ and
‘DOWN’ in ‘MANUAL CONTROL’ area. Distance of vertical displacement of the carriage (arm) after pressing corresponding
button is set in pane ‘Z moving, mm’. Indicator ‘steps’ automatically shows number of steps that the stepper motor performs to
cover the distance. Speed of the arm (carriage) translation is set in pane ‘Z speed, mm/sec’. Numbers in the panes throughout
the program panel may be entered by typing them in the pane or searching with the small up and down buttons left to the pane.
Motion with the preset parameters will start at pressing button ‘UP’ or ‘DOWN’ after which the activated button will
change color to red (see figure below). To stop the motion before full distance covering, press the active button again or press
spacebar on the keyboard of the host PC.
