Sensor Adjustments
Adjusting the Low Cover Sensor
The
Low Cover Sensor
alerts the operator at the begin-
ning of a job if there is not enough cover tape loaded on
the
Cover Tape Reel
to complete the job.
Loosen the screws on the
Cover Tape Low Sensor
to
adjust it’s position. It should rest so the sensor light is
positioned at the minimum level of cover tape required
to complete a job.
If sensor sensitivity needs to be fine tuned, adjust the
amplifiers at the base of the
Cover Tape Arm
. For more
information on the sensor/amplifier, refer to
Appendix
A: Sensors
No further setup is required. The
Low Cover Sensor
is
ready to operate.
Adjusting the Tape Jam Sensor
The
Tape Jam Sensor
is located on the
Taper
track
just before the
Sealer
. It detects if parts are doubled up
or incorrectly placed in a carrier tape pocket so that
the part protrudes above the level of the track and
would interfere with cover tape placement.
If sensor sensitivity needs to be fine tuned, adjust the
amplifiers at the base of the
Cover Tape Arm
. For
more information on the sensor/amplifier, refer to
Appendix A: Sensors.
No further setup is required. The
Jam In Tape Sensor
is ready to operate.
