Part sensor setup
Set part sensor parameters by referring to Figure 5 -19 and following the steps
below:
Figure 5 -19 Part sensor setup
1 If required, adjust the part sensor’s sensitivity so that the sensor sends only a single output pulse
for each individual part sense. Multiple part sense inputs for a single part causes the marking head
to generate “Missed Start” errors. Mechanical or relay contact outputs may also provide part sense
inputs, however the user must properly debounce the contacts to prevent multiple part sense inputs
to the marking head.
2 In WinMark Pro, navigate to the Rising Edge Part Sense property and select Yes to set triggering
on the sensor’s rising edge or No to trigger on the falling edge. Ensure that your part sensor is config-
ured to generate the correct rising or falling edge output pulse.
3 Center a sheet of anodized aluminum or a scrap production part on the conveyor under the focusing
lens and press the Test Mark pushbutton on the marking head. This step locates the center of the
Marking Window.
4 Mark the centerline of the test mark on a stationary point and then slowly jog the machine or con-
veyor (or move parts into position manually) until the part sensor is activated.
5 Measure the distance (at the instant the part sensor activates) from the centerline of the test mark
(Marking Window) to the leading edge of the desired mark location on the part.
6 Enter this number (in the selected units of measure) for the Sensor Distance value in WinMark
Pro.
