- PULSE MODE

+

Signal input on pin 3 of the applicator interface connector at the rear of the

 

 

 

 

print engine.

 

 

 

 

Caution • Start Print Signal is set by the applicator manufacturer and

 

 

 

 

should not be changed unless the factory defaults have been reloaded.

 

 

 

 

Please make a note of it. While other choices are valid, the print engine

 

 

 

 

must be returned to its designated setting for it to work properly.

 

 

 

 

Default: PULSE MODE

 

 

 

 

Selections: PULSE MODE, LEVEL MODE

 

 

 

 

• PULSE MODE—Labels print when the signal transitions from

-

FEED MODE

synchronization is lost and the label top is not where expected.

 

 

 

 

Default: FEED MODE

 

 

 

 

Selections: FEED MODE, ERROR MODE

 

 

 

 

• FEED MODE—If the label top is not where expected, the print engine

 

 

 

 

feeds a blank label to find the label top position.

 

 

 

 

• ERROR MODE—If the label top is not where expected, the

 

 

 

 

print engine stops, enters Pause mode, displays the message Error

 

 

 

 

Condition Feed Label, flashes the ERROR light, and asserts the

 

 

 

 

Service Required signal (pin 10 on the Applicator Interface Connector).

 

 

 

 

To resynch the media to the top of the label in Error mode, press

 

 

 

 

PAUSE to exit Pause mode. The ERROR light stops flashing, and the

 

 

 

 

Service Required signal is deactivated. The action of the print engine is

 

 

 

 

determined by the Head Close configuration selection (see Select

 

 

 

 

Head Close Option on page 82).

 

 

 

 

To change the value shown:

 

 

 

 

1. Press the left or right oval to toggle between the options.
