Specify speed measurement method:
Ƒ CONSTANT SPEED
Speed not measured - speed assumed to be constant. A printing speed needs to be
entered in mm/s
Ƒ TACHO
Select this field if you want to use a tachometer (tachometer pulse generator/Encoder).
This speed detection device is used to synchronize the printer print speed continuously
with the speed at which the objects to be printed travel along the production line.
It is particularly useful when the object travel speed is not constant.
See "Input/Output connections" section contained in this manual for further information on
connecting the photocells and the tachometer.
