Move gauge farther from twinner to a location where the wires aren't spinning.
Verify that the Power LED is on, and that the LASER ON LED is on.
Verify no laser by blocking the beam with a white business card or IR detector.
Use LaserTrak to verify the following:
•Laser Interlock is closed
•Beam Shutter interlock is closed.
•Laser At Temp
Verify that nothing is covering the gauge's optical window.
This is normal. When you change settings that affect measurements, or when you change one of the baud rate/framing settings, the gauge will re- indicate the current baud rate settings. The COMM light flashes to indicate the baud rate setting, and the Valid light turns on or off to indicate the framing. When the valid light is off while the COMM light is indicating the baud rate, it indicates that the serial port is configured for 7n2 framing. See the Baud Rate Indication setting for details.
Measurements
Non accurate length measurements when using final length measurement.
Starting and Ending length correction disabled
Product poorly guided
Not using external optical switches
External optical switches misaligned
Set Material Present dropout time to a value > 0.
Presenting each part to the measurement system consistently is critical.
Install external optical switches.
1.Verify that the optical switches are properly aligned.
