Operating Guidelines 

Air Chicago (Standard/XW/XL/XXL)

3-6

CHI Panel

The  CHI  panel  (Figure  3-7)  allows  fully 

automatic operation of the Air Chicago for a wide 

range of folding needs. The Air Chicago can be 

set to hold up to sixteen (16) programs.

NOTE: 

The standard display is 

the  folder’s  speed  and  the  item 

count.

The 

ADJUST

 button (A) is used for adjusting 

various folding parameters and is 

only

 used when 

the unit is operating in manual mode.

The 

CD

 programming button (B) is used to 

change the preset program settings for the SIZE 

SELECT buttons.

The 

TEST

  button  (C)  is  used  during 

troubleshooting.  The  fold  system  must  be 

off  (manual  mode)  in  order  to  access  the  test 

functions.

The CHI panel Display (D) varies depending 

upon which mode is currently selected. It shows 

the  various  fold  system  settings,  diagnostic 

messages, etc.

The 

CURSOR

 button (E) moves the cursor 

to various positions in the CHI panel Display in 

order to change settings.

The “

-

” and “

+

” buttons (F and G) are used 

to increase and decrease the various fold system 

settings. The “

-

” button is also used to reset the 

item counter.

The 

ENTER

 button (H) confirms a selection 

from a menu, or to store new information.

The 

SIZE SELECT

 buttons (I) place the unit 

in automatic mode and are used to select one of 

the up to 16 possible programs.

The 

WIDTH

 buttons (J) are used to manually 

set the space between the primary fold skis. These 

buttons are only used when the unit is operating 

in manual mode.

The 

AIR LO/HI

  button  (K)  selects  one  of 

two levels of air pressure to facilitate the primary 

folding of different weights of items. Processing 

lighter weight items requires less air pressure than 

heavier items. This button is only used when the 

unit is operating in manual mode.

The 

CROSS

  button  (L)  is  used  to  select  a 

choice of crossfold patterns including half folds, 

French (1/3) folds, or quarter folds. This button 

is only used when the unit is operating in manual 

mode.
