Chapter 6: Calibration Procedures
6-7
Before You Begin
1. Remove the FT-50’s cover to access dip switch pack S1. When
performing the calibration procedures you are required to
change the settings for S1-5 and S1-6.
2. Determine which calibration procedure to follow, do the
following:
• Attempt to find out the number of conveyor sprocket teeth.
This simplifies the calibration process by allowing you to
use the Standard Conveyor Calibration Procedure.
• If you do not know the number of the conveyor sprocket
teeth, but have a standard conveyor, use the Unknown
Sprocket Size Calibration Procedure.
• If your conveyor is nonstandard (the chain pitch is not 1.5
inches), you must determine the chain pitch and number of
teeth per chain segment/link and use the Non-Standard
Conveyor Calibration Procedure.
If you can not determine the chain pitch and number of
teeth per chain segment/link call IDC Customer Support:
