Installation
1. Remove the top cover on the Conveyor Extension.
2. Loosen the screws that attach the side covers to the frame and slide the covers away from the
machine side of the Conveyor Extension to remove them and expose the rail alignment pins and drive
couplers.
●
The plastic end caps will need to be removed (pried off) to remove the side covers.
3. Position the Conveyor Extension so that the fixed rail is in line with the fixed rail of the machine
conveyor. The adjustable rail on the Conveyor Extension should be behind (larger width) the
adjustable rail on the machine.
4. Adjust the feet as necessary so the heights of the belts on the extension are the same as the belt
heights on the machine conveyor.
5. Connect the two drive couplers on the Conveyor Extension to the drive shafts on the ends of the
machine conveyor rails.
6. Position the Conveyor Extension against the end of the machine conveyor rails. Make sure the
conveyor extension rail alignment pins are engaged in the slots in the end of the machine conveyor
rails.
7. Use a long straight edge to align the Conveyor Extension rails to the rails on the machine conveyor.
8. Connect the Conveyor Extension to the side panel on the machine with the L brackets attached to the
legs.
9. Replace the side covers and top cover.
10. Relocate the exit fiber sensors (with mounting brackets) from the end of the machine conveyor rails to
the end of the Conveyor Extension rails.
11. Measure the distance (in millimeters) from the fiber sensors at the PCB load position of the CAPI-6T
to the new position of the fiber sensors at the exit of the conveyor extension. On the CAPI-6T screen,
go to the Autoload tab of the I/O screen and change the Fiber-Fiber distance for the main conveyor to
match the measured distance. See Figure 45.
