Operators Manual

ALS 230

Number of data bits _______________________________________________ DBIT

The function is only visible if a baudrate is selected. With this function you can select between 7 or 8 data bit protocols.

Factory adjustment: 8BIT

Recycle (simulates max labels/min) ________________________________ RECY

The Auto-recycle function, is used to determine the maximum possible cycle rate with the current parameter settings.

It will cycle through applicator cycles automatically by internally generating a product-start the instant a cycle has been completed and displays the average cycle rate per minute in the display. It also operates with no applicator selected by dispensing labels at the maximum possible rate. The maximum labelling rate for different values of PDT can be determined using the RECY function without having to physically connect the printer.

Distance sensor to dispensing edge _________________________________ DIST

This function defines the distance between the material label sensor and the dispensing edge. This value is shown in steps of 0.1 mm (e.g. 0456 means 45.6 mm). The measured value can be adjusted by pressing the key FUNCTION.

If the DIST value has been adjusted correctly the first leading label edge detected at initialisation will be moved exactly to the dispensing edge, as long as STOD is set to 0.0 (mm). This parameter is important for the missing label compensation. If it is not correctly adjusted a missing label on the material roll, will not be compensated correctly and the product will not be labelled.

Value range: 10.0 .... 999.9 mm

Label counter ___________________________________________________ LABC

Each dispensed label increases the counter by 1. The capacity of the counter is for

999 999 999. The total number can be seen in 3 sections, press the keys FUNCTION as described down below:

Mnnn Knnn .nnn

ywhere M represents millions

yK represents thousands

y.represents units

On entering the "LABC" parameter the units are displayed. By using the arrow keys can then be used to change between the millions, thousands and units displays.

By pressing NEXT and PRIOR at the same time the counter is set to 0. By pressing the key ENTER the function will be left.

Leave Menu finishing _____________________________________________ QUIT

Function: If this function is selected, you get back to the standard menu
