9 Operator Instruction and Demonstration
Ensure that the responsible person - Operator, Foreman or Manager (whoever the
company designates as responsible) reads and understands the manual (translate if
necessary).
It is suggested that the manual be given to this person as the installation is started so they
will have read the manual by the time the installation is completed.
9.1 Equipment Identification
9.2 Starting the System
Refer to Sections 6.1 and 6.2 for a detailed description.
• Explain how the transmitter and receiver operate. Demonstrate the automatic tool
alignment, and explain the diagnostics signals given by the receiver LEDs.
• Demonstrate how the receiver detects the laser in segments (using a 4 mm Allen key is
usually convenient). Show how blocking the laser like this is indicated on the PGS-3,
the receiver LEDs and the User Interface Sensor window.
• Demonstrate and explain the start-up test. Demonstrate the stopping test during start-
up and explain how it tests the safety stopping performance of the machine and either
passes or shuts the machine down with an error. Explain the 24 hour test if the
machine is run continually for 24 hours.
9.3 Mute Point Setting
Refer to Section 6.3 and Section 6.4 for a detailed description.
• Highlight the purpose of the mute point. Explain that the laser detects obstructions
2mm above the surface of the material that you have set mute from. Explain how a
change in material thickness will be detected if it is greater than 2mm.
• Get the operator to demonstrate setting and resetting the mute point. Make sure
the process outlined in Section 6.3 and Section 6.4 is understood.
• Ensure that it is understood that the mute point is set from the front and middle sensors.
