Standard Conveyor Calibration Procedure
Use this procedure if you have a standard conveyor with a 1.5-inch
chain pitch and you know the number of teeth on the sprocket
directly contacting the underside of the main production transport
chain.
1. Press Key 5 until SYSTEM DISPLAY appears and then press
the Arrow Key to enter the Calibrate Mode. You may be
required to enter a password if your system is password
protected.
2. Press Key 4 until REJECTOR STATUS appears and check to be
sure the rejector is activated. If it is turned off, press the Arrow
Key to turn it on.
3. Open dip switch S1-5.
4. Press Key 5 until REJECTOR TYPE appears and use the Arrow
Key to select the type of rejector installed in your system.
5. Press Key 5 until KNOWN CHAIN PITCH & TEETH appears
and set to PRESENT.
6. Press Key 5 until ENCODER RESOLUTION appears and enter
the encoder resolution. The standard encoder is 500 pulse. The
following table lists the encoders and the supported resolution.
Note
The encoder resolution is set at the factory during assembly,
however if you upgraded the software you should check the
encoder type and set it properly.
7. Close Dip Switch S1-5.
8. Measure the distance in millimeters from the trigger sensor
beam to the centerline of the rejector. If you are using a slat
rejector measure from the beam to the upstream edge of the
slat assembly. Accurate measurement is extremely important
for proper calibration.
