To Define a Pattern for Output 1 or Output 2
1. Follow the appropriate procedure in Table A 3-18 to define the pattern
for output 1. Repeat the procedure for output 2.
Table A 1-18 Defining a Pattern Using Time or Distance Units.
For each pattern, determine the length of each bead and the length of the space between each bead. To
apply only one bead or a continuous bead, see Note A.
Follow these steps to define a
pattern in time units
(milliseconds).
Follow these steps to define a
pattern in distance units
(millimeters or inches).
Calculate a number (measurement
unit) to program into the system.
1. Estimate the amount of time from
the point the sensor detects the
product to the point the gun should
begin firing.
Example: 150 ms
1. Measure the distance between
the sensor and the gun nozzle.
Measure the additional
distance that your product will
travel before the gun begins
firing. Add the two
measurements.
Example: 75 mm (3.0 in.)
The start point for the first bead is
equal to the number from step 1.
Example: 150 ms or 75 mm (3.0 in.)
2. Estimate the amount of time the
gun should fire to give you the
desired length of the first bead.
Example: 50 ms
2. Determine the length of the
first bead to be applied to your
product.
Example: 25 mm (1.0 in.)
The end point for the first bead is
equal to the sum of the numbers from
steps 1 and 2.
Example: 200 ms or 100 mm (4.0 in.)
3. Estimate the amount of time the
gun should shut off to give you the
desired space between the first and
second beads.
Example: 100 ms
3. Determine the length of the
space between the first and
second beads.
Example: 50 mm (2.0 in.)
The start point for the second bead is
equal to the sum of the numbers from
steps 1, 2, and 3.
Example: 300 ms or 150 mm (6.0 in.)
4. Estimate the amount of time the
gun should fire to give you the
desired length of the second bead.
Example: 50 ms
4. Determine the length of the
second bead.
Example: 25 mm(1.0 in.)
The end point for the second bead is
equal to the sum of the numbers from
steps 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Example: 350 ms or 175 mm (7.0 in.)
NOTE A: To disable an output, set the start point for the first bead to 0. To apply a continuous bead, use the same
number you calculated for the end point for the first bead for both the start and end points for the second
bead.
5. Go to the next procedure,
