Pressure / Height Gauge Calibration

Height Gauge - High Point

Turn the pressure knob to the left to raise

the top head. Do this until the highest level is
reached, without unscreing the internal bolt
from the main post. Press an arrow key to lock
in that pressure value to PRH. The high point
of the pressure/height gauge is now defined.
Press PRG to move to the next menu item.

Height Gauge - Low Point

Turn the pressure knob to the right to

lower the top head. Do this until the lowest
level is reached. Press an arrow key to lock in
that pressure value to PRL. The low point of
the pressure/height gauge is now defined. Press
PRG to move to the next menu item.

The digital pressure/height gauge is calibrated from the factory

to recognize the lowest and highest pressure points settable on the
press. By defining the highest and lowest points of adjustment, the
controller is then able to accurately calculate and display the current
heat platen height & pressure as the operator turns the pressure knob.

It may become necessary to recalibrate the digital pressure/height

gauge if the displayed values of 00 through 10:00 do not properly
correspond to the lowest and highest pressure adjustment levels. This
could happen if the stop collar is loosened to adjust the stopping
position of the heat platen over the lower table. Other factors may
also require the user to redefine the highest and lowest points of
pressure adjustment to the controller.

This is done very easily through the following User Options
