base. Rotate the MIN pot on the DART Controller so that the transport moves at
about 0.05 m/s. LED D8 will turn off when the speed drops below 0.05 m/s.
2. Switch the Speed Control Board Auto/Manual switch to Auto. Set the S3 DIP
Switch on the Speed Control Board to Calibrate 0.0 m/s Mode (Position 1 On).
Start the base and rotate the POTA pot on the Speed Control Board so that the
transport moves at about 0.05 m/s. LED D8 will turn off when the speed is below
0.05 m/s.
Note:
If the Base is a Feeder that is not equipped with an encoder, POTA
should be adjusted so that the Feeder operates at a ‘crawl’.
3. If the base is equipped with an encoder…
Set the S3 DIP Switch on the Speed Control Board to Calibrate 1.0 m/s
Mode (Position 2 On).
Start the Base and rotate the POTB pot on the Speed Control Board so that
the transport moves at 1.0 m/s. LED D9 will turn on solid when the speed
is at 1.0 m/s, and it will blink if the speed is greater than 1.0 m/s.
4. If the Base is a Feeder, and Gap Control will be used …
Set the S3 DIP Switch on the Speed Control Board to Calibrate Pitch
Mode (Position 3 On).
Start the Base and rotate the POTC pot on the Speed Control Board so that
the Feeder feeds at 2 cycles per second. This corresponds to a 20 inch pitch
when feeding onto a transport moving at 1.0 m/s.
5. Set the S3 DIP Switch on the Speed Control Board to the desired operating mode
