How To Create a Production Schedule
Linx 7900
The printer checks the state of the Secondary Trigger input (‘Aux’ input) at the start of every
message. The printer does not update the production schedule counter unless the
Secondary Trigger input is in the correct state.
Figure 20. Production schedule counter
Gated Print Go Aux High
The printer updates the production schedule counter if the Secondary Trigger input signal
is in the high state.
Figure 20 shows how the printer updates the production schedule counter when you use
the Gated Print Go Aux High trigger setting.
• When the Print Go signal number 2 occurs, the Secondary Trigger input is in the high
state. The printer updates the production schedule counter to prepare the message for
Print Go number 3.
• When the Print Go signal number 3 occurs, the Secondary Trigger input is in the low
state. The printer does not update the production schedule counter to prepare the
message for Print Go number 4.
Gated Print Go Aux Low
The printer updates the sequence for the next message if the Secondary Trigger input is low.
Keyboard Trigger
If the Repeat option is set to 10, the printer prints the same message on every product until
you generate a keyboard trigger signal 10 times. (To generate a keyboard trigger signal,
press the [alt] key and the [T] key together.)
Timed Trigger
You can set this option to Daily, Weekly, Monthly, or Yearly. The printer updates the
production schedule counter at the same time every day, every week, every month, or every
year. The operation of the schedule is as follows.
Daily The schedule changes every day at the same time of day. If the Repeat
option is set to 10, the printer prints the same message for 10 days, then
changes to the next message.
Weekly The schedule changes on the same day of every week, and at the same time
of day. If the Repeat option is set to 5, the printer prints the same message
for five weeks, then changes to the next message.
