CONFIGURATION SETUP (cont’d)
(APPLICATOR OPTIONS)
Multi-Label – The Applicator has the ability to apply multiple labels per Product Detect Signal. The
Number of Labels and the Center-to-Center Distance between the labels are configured in the Multi-Label
Submenu. When the Applicator is online and a product moves in front of it, the Applicator receives a
Product Detect Signal from the Sensor. The Applicator will wait the Label Placement value and apply a
label. An internal counter is incremented and the Applicator waits the Centerline Distance before applying
another label. This sequence continues until the Number of Labels has been satisfied. If the label rate is
faster than what the Applicator can dispense, a warning will occur in the Status Box at the Main Menu.
1) To setup, go to the Multi-Label Option
Menu and turn the Option on.
2) Next, set the Number of Labels you
want to apply to the product.
3) Set the Centerline Distance of the
labels. If the Encoder is turned on the
units will be in inches, otherwise it
will be in seconds.
Note: The Minimum Value for the Centerline Distance is only a suggestion based on variables of the
Applicator Setup. The actual Minimum Value could be considerably lower than the suggested value
in some Applicator configurations. One of these configurations would be a Time-Based Inverted
Tamp Applicator with both, Tamp Home and Tamp Return Sensors.
Missing Label –
The Applicator has the ability to track missing labels between the Peel Edge and the
Label Sensor. When a missing label is detected on the label liner, the Applicator will feed a new label to
the Peel Edge at Slew Speed. After 3 missing labels in a row, a “No Labels Found” message will appear on
the Display (see Note 3 below).
1) To setup this Option, go to the
Missing Label Option Menu and turn
the Option on.
2) Count the number of labels from the
Peel Edge (include any that are
hanging out past the edge) to the
Label Sensor (count the one under the
Sensor) and enter that number into the
Lbls Between Sensor and Peel Edge
box.
Note: 1) If the Applicator is taken offline with a missing label on the liner between the Sensor and
the Peel Edge, the Applicator will quit tracking the blank spot. Unlike previous software
versions, there is no Alarm Screen to notify the operator of this condition.
2) If the Label Length is changed, the Missing Label Option does not turn off as in previous
software versions. Therefore, the number of Labels Between Sensor and Peel Edge may be
incorrect.
3) The number of missing labels in a row before an alarm occurs is adjustable. Refer to the
Special Options Section of the Manual on page 3-27.
