4.2CONFIGURATION AND MONITORING

Dispensing speed

You can set the dispensing speed to a fixed value or you can configure it to automatically adjust to the speed of the conveyor belt (speed adaption). The second option requires you to connect a rotary encoder that measures and relays the conveyor speed to the dispenser.

Configuring a fixed value:

Use the two left buttons to set the speed in dispensing mode (online settings) (see “Online settings” on page 22).

Or use the function menu settings:

Call the LABEL SETUP > Dispense speed function and set the speed you require.

Configuring speed adaption:

Turn the function on by setting MACHINE SETUP >

Speed Adaption to ‘Yes’.

Set MACHINE SETUP > Encoder Resol. and MACHINE SETUP > Encoder Diameter as appropriate for the employed rotary encoder.

See the service manual for information on suitable rotary encoders.
