ADJUSTMENTS
Acceleration:
(RV3) The pot marked
A
is the control for the acceleration or
electronic soft start feature.
For an initial setting, turn the
A
pot fully counter-clockwise (CCW) until a faint
“clicking” sound is heard, then approximately 2 turns (or revolutions) clockwise
(CW). CW adjustment of this potentiometer softens the start and lengthens the
time required for the turntable/tower to reach its preset speed.
Speed Control:
(RV1) The pot marked
1
controls the turntable/tower jog speed
1
.
Simply activate the turntable/tower jog function, adjusting the jog speed (pot 1) as
The turntable/tower rotates. This should be set for approximately 2 to 3 RPM.
Please note that this setting should be made with a load on the turntable (turntable
type models only). A CW turn increases the jog speed, while CCW decreases jog
speed.
Speed Control:
(RV2) The pot marked
2
is the control for the high speed
2
for the
turntable/tower during the wrap cycle once acceleration is
complete.
This speed can be as high as 12 RPM. However, you should note that if it is set too
high, you may see chopping of the current to the turntable/tower drive motor which
will cause pulsating, half-speed operation of the turntable/tower drive itself. If this
is seen, please decrease the setting of pot
2
, until it is no longer in effect.
For best calibration results, it is recommended that you make this adjustment while
the machine is in cycle. After starting a wrap cycle, set the film carriage speed
control to the “0” (minimum) position. This will prevent the film carriage from
rising and completing its cycle. Then simply adjust the high speed (pot
2
) as the
turntable/tower rotates. A CW turn increases speed, a CCW turn decreases speed.
