Assumptions and pre settings for this example:
The JET3 printer is used for continuously printing on a cable emerging
from a cable extruder device. The cable extruder mustn’t stop even if the
print out fails. After a print interruption the print out should continue with
the correct meter number.
For this application an encoder is used for speed measuring and position
detection. The print out is carried out each meter and shows the current
number of meters.
Additionally a length measuring system has to provide a PrintGo signal
after each meter.
These settings for the so called “meter counter” are shown in Picture 10.

Picture 11 shows the JET3 editor with the counter object and the
settings for the counter object in this example. The text object for the
letter “m” is just a standard object without any special settings for this
example.
