Label pitch _______________________________________________________LPIT

Distance between 2 labels on the label web, measured from leading edge to leading edge. The distance could be set manual or an automatic length measurement is also possible. In case of automatic mode the length is measured with the INIT function. This should be normally done, so label material could be easy changed. Only under special condition the manual mode has to be used.

There are three different modes:

AUTO Select automatic measuring mode

A111 The automatic mode is on and a distance of 111 mm was measured M111 The manual mode is selected and a length of 111 mm was entered.

Range: AUTO or 5 ... 999 mm.

Label contrast __________________________________________________ CONT

With this function the sensitivity of the standard label sensor could be adjusted. If AUTO is adjusted, the machine scans automatically. The automatic modes doesn’t work with transparent labels. In case of another type of sensor (mechanical or capacitive) the setting has to be manual.

There are three different modes:

AUTO	Select automatic measuring mode
A111	The automatic mode is on and a contrast of 111 was measured
M111	The manual mode is selected and a contrast of 111 was entered.

Range: AUTO or 1 ... 200.

Sensor status ____________________________________________________SENS

Function: Status of label sensor is indicated, i.e. there is a label in the sensor the abbreviation LAB is displayed and GAP is shown if there is only backing material inside the label sensor. Can be used for all sensor types i.e. mechanical or electronic ones.
