If your system uses a speed sensor, use this procedure to calibrate it.
The procedure is written as though you are familiar with the operator
interface to the Oretronic III TMD. If you are not familiar with the
operator interface, please read the detailed descriptions of the front panel
keys, indicators, and displays in Chapter 3 of this manual before
beginning this procedure.
1. Run the conveyor belt at normal production speed.
2. Place the TMD in Setup mode.
3. Scroll to the BELT SPD display
The first (left most) digit in the counter will be flashing.
4. Press the up or down VALUE key until the correct digit of the belt
speed is displayed
5. Press ENTER to set the digit.
6. The next digit in the counter will be flashing.
7. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 to enter each digit of the belt speed.
When the last digit is entered, the entire counter flashes indicating
that calibration is in progress. The display reads CAL BELT.
When the speed calibration is complete, the counter stops flashing
and the display rereads SPD DONE.
8. Scroll up to the BELT SPD display to verify that the calibration is
correct.
9. Place the TMD in Run mode.
There are three system-dependent measurements you may need for the
initial setup of the TMD. These measurements are:
• Belt speed (if you are not using a speed sensor)
• Clip delay (if you are using a clip detector)
• Timed delay (if you are using a marking device)
To take these measurements, you must first place a timing mark on the
conveyor belt using the following procedure.
