may be programmed in inches or millimeters independently of the other data
fields by pressing the
key. Be sure the correct unit is selected.
7. Enter the clamp pressure value.
8. Enter a cable name, if desired.
9. Position the blue data highlight cursor over the
STRIP
length data field for the
first step. As can be seen in Figure 4-4 above, the first strip length should be
0.150”. Enter 0.150 in the data field. (It is not necessary to enter leading zeros
or decimal points. In this example, the operator would simply press 1 5 0. The
leading zero and the decimal point are automatic).
10. Move the blue data highlight cursor one position to the right, over the
PULL
length data field. A full strip is required. Enter 0.150 (press 1 5 0).
11. Move the blue data highlight cursor one position to the right, over the
S
data field.
Enter 3 for the pull speed.
12. Move the blue data highlight curser one position to the right, over the orbit blade
diameter
(
CUT
) data field. The center conductor measures 0.
035” (0.89mm) with
our dial calipers. Enter this in the
CUT
field.
13. Move the blue data highlight cursor one position to the right, over the
S
data field.
There are several layers to cut through to get down to the center conductor, so a
slower blade feed rate is desirable. Enter 2 in this data field.
14. Move the blue data highlight cursor one position to the right, over the
DWELL
data field. Enter 0 8 in this field. This will allow the cutter blade to dwell for 0.80
seconds after reaching the programmed diameter.

15. Move the blue data highlight cursor one position to the right, over the
PULL
diameter data field. The
PULL
diameter value should be set slightly larger than
the
CUT
value to prevent the gripper blades from scraping the cable when pulling
the slug. We will set this value 0
.005” larger than the
CUT
value. Enter 0 4 0 in
this field.
16. Move the blue data highlight cursor one position to the right, over the
HOLD
data
field. For the center conductor strip we will use the gripper blades to stabilize the
end of the cable while the orbiting blade is performing the cut operation. We
want the gripper blades to have a good grip on the cable so we will program
them to a
HOLD
diameter of 0.030” smaller than the
GUIDE
value. Enter 1 6 6 in
this field. If this field is turned OFF (indicated by a series of dashes displayed in
the field), press the
key to activate this field.
17. Repeat steps 9
–16 above for strip steps 2 and 3, using the following data:
