4.4Control of dispense unit

4.4.1 Dispenser Menu selection

Turning on the mains switch and at the same time pressing one of the panel keys, you may select between several options:

PANEL KEY	Function	Display message
& mains switch
FEED	Material initialisation	INIT

NEXT FUNCTION	Standard menu	ON

PRIOR FUNCTION	Product menu	PD0n

ENTER	Configuration menu	CODE

Press the key as long as the display shows the version number. One of the above mentioned messages appears in the display. Calling the product menu is only possible, if at least one product bank has been programmed.

If you do not press a panel key while turning on the machine the same menu is active that has been used before the machine was switched off.

4.4.2 Missing label function and web breaks

The missing label function stops the label web in the correct position even when a label is missing from the label web. If there are more than 3 missing labels from the web then the machine will stop and give the correct message E_1.

If the label web has broken or come to an end then the machine will no longer be able to find the next leading label edge and so after more than 3 signals from the product sensor the error message E_1 will also be generated.

4.4.3 Display and data input

The operator panel controls the operation of the machine. Data can be displayed and changed. The displays have different meanings:

yParameter selection:

In the display a parameter is shown, e.g. POS, STAD, or PD02 (product menu no. 02). By pressing the keys FUNCTION another parameter can be selected. By pressing the key ENTER the data is displayed.

yData display:

The display shows the values of the parameters (e.g. 0123) or possible adjustments e.g. (AUTO). Pressing the FUNCTION keys changes the data value. By pressing the key ENTER the data input is completed and a new parameter is shown.
