Adjustment Routine
The position of the clocking on the time card is defined when programming the card
lift and column change. But it may happen that the clocking is not printed exactly in
the right position due to manufacturing tolerance and especially card tolerances.
With this routine the position of the clocking on the time card can be adjusted in
vertical and horizontal direction.
The clocking can be adjusted within -5.0 mm and +4.9 mm in both directions.
The adjustment is executed via the adjustment value which must be between 00
and 99. The value range corresponds with the dimensions of the recorder printed on
this page. The adjustment value pre-programmed ex factory is 50 and this value
means no change in print position. Changes are in steps of 0.1 mm.
Minimum dimensions of the card:
- left card edge
3.5 mm
- bottom line
16.5 mm
Card lift / line change
To check the position, the imprint programmed is printed in the first column, valid on
01.01.00 at 01:23, which usually is the first line.
After each clocking, a column change is executed. If a graphic unit is used, the
clocking is orientated on the upper line of the imprint field. The position can be
changed by pressing "R" (+) and "E" (-) in 0.1 mm steps.
Column change
The adjustment of the column change resp. the horizontal position of the clocking is
identical to the adjustment of the card lift but the left card edge is used as reference
line.
