CONTROLLER SET UP AND OPERATION
THERE ARE (2) METHODS TO AUTOMATICALLY POSITION THE MEASURING ROLL.
1. From the main operation screen, select a preset 1 thru 6 by pressing the ↑ or ↓ arrow. (The flashing _ and
the → indicate the selected preset) Type in a count. When you press the “ENT/RET” key the count will load
into REF. and the measuring bend roll will move from POS 000 (Home) to the new location called for by the
count you loaded into REF.
See machine operation for instruction on determining counts.
2. On the main operation screen select a preset 1 thru 6 by pressing the ↑ or ↓ arrow. (The flashing _ and the
→ indicate the selected preset), This will be the preset that the stored setup will be loaded into. Now press
F4. This will bring up the stored setup screen.
a. To Prove Out a Setup:
By using the method set out in #1 above, test bend bar and keep adjusting the count
+ or – and re-run a new bar until you get the desired radius. Store this proven setup.
b. To Retrieve a Stored Setup:
From the stored setup screen, Press F4 or F3 to select a bar size. Now select the desired stored setup
by pressing F2 or F3 to change pages and then the ↑ or ↓ arrow to select the number. Press the
“ENT/RET” key and that setup will load into the main screen preset you previously selected. Press
“ENT/RET” again to load the count to REF and to move the measuring roll into position.
You will notice that there are some setups already in from the factory.
Note: Due to the wide variances in the tensile strength of manufactured rebar, it is likely that these
predetermined counts for a given radius will not produce the desired part. You should alter the factory presets to
more accurately represent the proper count for your rebar.
c. To Store a Proven Setup:
From the stored setup screen. Press F4 or F3 to select a bar size. Now select the desired number you
want to store a setup in. Press F2 or F3 to change pages and then the ↑ or ↓ arrow to select the
desired number. Type in the radius. Example: 02-04 would be a 2 foot 4inch radius. Press the TAB key
to be able to enter the count number. Type in your desired count.
Helpful Hints:
1. Prior to moving on to a new job or before the control is turned off, store your proven setup.
2. Clear factory setups. This will eliminate getting your proven setups mixed up with the factory setups that may
or may not produce good parts.
3. Store your smallest radiuses in the lowest numbered setup numbers. This will aid in more easily finding
stored setups.
• To clear all setups, hold in the ESC and 0 keys while you power on the control.
• To reset all setups to factory settings, hold in the ESC and ENT keys while you power on the control.
