4. PROGRAMMER KIT ADJUSTMENTS
4.1. Reset and Count Switch Adjustments
(Figure 3)
The reset switch assembly must “close” when the clutch solenoid is de–energized and “open” when energized.
The count switch assembly must “close” when actuated by the cam on the main shaft “open” when released.
If the switch assemblies do not “open” or “close” properly, an adjustment is necessary. Loosen the two screws
which secure the switch brackets and move the brackets UP or DOWN to adjust the switches. Re–tighten the
screws after the switch assemblies are properly adjusted.
4.2. Programmer Solenoid Adjustment
(Figure 4
)
The programmer solenoid must be adjusted so that, when it pulls the pivot shaft, the contact strip feed finger
does not engage the contact carrier during the cycle of the machine.
If the solenoid requires adjustment, loosen the four screws which secure the solenoid to the base plate; then
slide the solenoid forward or backward, as required. Re–tighten the screws after the solenoid is properly
adjusted. If additional adjustment is required, shorten the pull–rod slightly by bending it.
5. SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Each time the control module is turned on, the last part number run will be selected for production. Another
part number may be selected using the control module. Part numbers are edited in the control module and may
be saved for production or deleted.
The main power switch on the control module must be ON" to run part numbers from the data base. The FFC
machine may be run with the control module OFF" (or the interface disconnected), when there are no skips in the
cable.
5.1. Main Menu
The first menu displayed on the control module is the main menu. Figure 5 shows the main menu screen. From
this point, the operator may follow a path down the hierarchy of control functions to any operation by pressing
the appropriate function key.
Pressing the F1 (SELECT) key in the main menu screen results in the screen shown in Figure 6.
A block diagram of the sequence of operations for the control module is shown in Figure 7.
