For single cross belt sorters and double belt sorters, the scale interval value can be changed
depending on the particular object dimension measured, i.e., length, width or height. For
double belt systems with dynamic presence detection, single belt object placements can
occur with or without scale value switchover. Synchronized mode always uses the fixed
scale value 10/10/10 mm (0.4“/0.4“/0.4“).
The change to the second scale interval value occurs separately for each dimension value
once that dimension has reached the preset switchover point. It is therefore possible to
individually change scale values, i.e. if one dimension is greater or less than the predefined
switchover point, only the scale value for that dimension is changed.
For example, if the switchover point is defined for the length dimension, a length that
exceeds the switchover point will result in scale value 2 being applied to the length. Scale
value 1 will continue to apply to the determined width and height.
The switchover point is set during commissioning and cannot be changed when the
calibration switch is activated and locked (for information on the calibration switch, see
section
3.9.3 Alibi memory and firmware
). Scale interval value 1 and scale interval value 2
must be documented on two separate information labels. Only scale interval values based
on the Nominal operating conditions may be selected.
