Operating the Tape Rewind Module
The only connection on the Tape Rewind module is for electrical power, so it
has no communication interface and does not require any software config-
uration in CH700, WinAH400.ini, or otherwise.
If there is excessive slack in the empty carrier tape, then increase
Speed
If Tape Rewind is pulling too hard on empty carrier tape, then decrease
Tension
The Tape Rewind module is ready for operation: load your tape-in feeder,
start your programming job, and watch the Tape Rewind module neatly wrap
the empty carrier tape around the spindle/reel.
If you need to reverse the taper for any reason (go back one pocket instead of
advancing), remember to first change the
Direction
of rotation on the Tape
Rewind module. Else, the Tape Rewind may cause problems if it is pulling
the empty carrier tape in the opposite direction from which the tape-in feeder
is also pulling.
