6.3.4 Wheel Data Freezing “
Rim Data
Freeze
”
The “
Rim Data Freeze
” function allows you to save
the data detected on a fi rst rim, of a group of identical
wheels (usually four) to be balanced.
This function enhances machine performance since it
reduces the data acquisition time for the subsequent
identical wheels after the fi rst
Note
:
This feature is only available in AUTOMATIC Mode:
(
PROFILING
).
How the function works
• Clamp the fi rst wheel.
• Perform a run.
During the run, all wheel data is defi ned by the unit by
means of the automatic remote gauges; if necessary
the operator can change the values suggested by the
machine
After the first wheel has been balanced, before
clamping another wheel from the set on the machine,
you can freeze the rim data by selecting
Rim Data
Freeze
(
1, Fig. 6-25
). The (
2, Fig. 6-26
) icon is
immediately displayed.
The subsequent wheels will be balanced without
running the wheel profi le detection.
The use of the previously “frozen” data, reduces the
cycle time considerably.
If previously enabled, the laser pointer function can be
used for weight placement.
This function is directly available at the end of the
wheel measuring run and can be activated from the
BALANCING screen page:
• press and select
Rim Data Freeze
(
1, Fig. 6-25
).
To cancel the function:
The frozen rim data can be deleted at any time, by
selecting
Rim Data Freeze
(
1, Fig. 6-25
) again.
In this way the padlock icon disappears (
3, Fig. 6-27
),
to indicate that the rim scan is allowed and it will be
necessary for the wheel data acquisition at the next
wheel run.
