23 On-the-fly marking
23.5 Line speed control setting “2 sensors input”
If “2 sensors input” is set for “Line speed control”, use sensors to measure the line speed.
Connect the first sensor A to ENCODER A IN (X13) and the second sensor B to ENCODER
B IN (X14) of the TERMINAL connector. The line speed is calculated based on the time
difference of the sensor inputs.

(4) “2 Sensors input time-out [s]”: You can specify a timeout period between turning on ENCODER B
IN (X14) and the marking trigger e.g. signal input at TRIGGER IN (X5).
(5) Sensor B (downstream)
(6) Workpiece
(7) “Distance line speed sensors [mm]”: Set the distance between the sensors so that ENCODER B
IN (X14) (sensor B) turns on within 10s from the signal input at ENCODER A IN (X13) (sensor A).
(8) Sensor A (upstream)
(9) Moving direction
