AccuBeam 3 Digital Line Guide Sensor

Introduction
This section describes the installation and operation of the AccuBeam 3 Digital Line Guide
sensor. The Digital Line Guide uses reflected light to track a registration line printed on the web.
An optional remote station is available for applications where the sensor cannot be easily
reached. The remote station duplicates the sensor’s switchpad and display, and provides access
to all parameters and graphic displays.
The Digital Line Guide is enabled by setting parameter 12 or 13 to 2. Refer to page 21 for more
information about setting controller parameters.
The Digital Line Guide is compatible with the following controllers and remote station:
MICRO 1000, MICRO 4000 NET or EVO 150 Controllers
The Digital Line Guide requires an interface cable to connect to these controllers. Cables
are available in standard lengths of 12’ [3.6m], 25’ [7.6m], 50’ [15.2 m], 75’ [22.8m], and
100’ [30.5m].
The Digital Line Guide also requires a Serial I/O board (AUX 4249) to connect to the EVO
150 Controller.
Auxiliary Remote Station
The Auxiliary Remote Station requires an interface cable and T-box assembly (CON
1000) to connect to the Digital Line Guide.
Note: The AccuBeam 3 Digital Line Guide Sensor and Auxiliary Remote Station cannot be
used on EVO 150 controllers with the field bus option.
