AR-M256/M257/M258/M316/M317/M318/5625/5631 SIMULATION 8 - 1
[8] SIMULATION
(Diagnostics, setup, adjustment value input, data display)
1. Outline and purpose
The simulation has the following functions to grasp the machine oper-
ating status, identify the trouble position and causes in an earlier stage,
and make various setups and adjustments speedily for improving the
serviceability of the machine.
1) Various adjustments
2) Setup of specifications and functions
3) Canceling troubles
4) Operation check
5) Various counters check, setup, and clear
6) Machine operating status (operation history) data check, clear
7) Transfer of various data (adjustments, setup, operations, counters)
The operating procedures and the displays differ depending on the
form of the operation panel of the machine.
2. Code-type simulation
A. Operating procedures and operations
* Entering the simulation mode
1) #/P key (program) ON
→
Asterisk (*) key ON
→
CLEAR key ON
→
Asterisk (*) key ON
→
Ready for input of a main code of simulation
2) Entering a main code with the 10-key
→
START key ON
3) Entering a sub code with the 10-key
→
START key ON
4) Select an item with the scroll key and the item key.
5) The machine enters the mode corresponding to the selected item.
Press START key to start the simulation operation.
To cancel the current simulation mode or to change the main code
and the sub code, press the CUSTOM SETTINGS key.
* Canceling the simulation mode to return to the normal mode
1) Press CLEAR ALL key.
B. How to change the simulation adjustment value
set by the touch panel in the adjustment value
entry process
(1) Target SIM list
3-7, 8-1, 8-2, 8-3, 8-10, 8-11, 8-12, 9-5, 43-1, 44-34, 46-2, 46-9, 46-10,
46-11, 46-18, 46-20, 46-30, 46-31, 48-1, 48-2, 50-1, 50-5, 50-6, 50-10,
50-12, 51-1, 51-2, 51-9, 53-7
(2) Touch panel operating procedure
• In the adjustment value setup menu, the selected item is highlighted.
Change is made to the highlighted simulation adjustment value.
• If all the list of the adjustment items is not shown on one page, touch
[
↑
] and [
↓
] button to shift the page.
• To change an adjustment value, touch the select the item to change
the adjustment value. (The selected item is highlighted.) Enter the
adjustment value and perform one of the following procedures, and
the display of the adjustment value of the selected item is renewed
as well as the adjustment value.
1) Touch [OK] button.
2) Touch another selected item to change the selection state.
3) If all the list of the adjustment items cover two or more pages,
touch [
↑
] and [
↓
] button to shift the page.
4) Press [START] key.
* For simulations which allow confirmation print, copying is started
after changing the adjustment value.
(46-2, 46-9, 46-10, 46-11, 46-18, 48-1, 48-2, 50-1, 50-5, 50-6, 50-10,
50-12, 51-2, the bold-faced items in the above list.)
* If the entry value is outside the adjustable range, an error buzzer
sounds and the adjustment value is not renewed. Page shift is not
made, either.
