Controller Configuration
During power up or wake up from disable, press and
hold the + and − buttons on the kV/uA panel for 1
second. When the kV/
A panel displays F − 1 for
function 1 the controller is in configuration mode.
To change functions, press the Plus or Minus buttons
on the kV/
A panel. To change function values press
the Plus or Minus buttons on the Flow Air panel. To
save your settings and exit Configuration Mode,
press the Enable/Disable button.
Function No. Name Settings Default
1 Gun Type 0 = Encore 0
2 Trigger Type 0 =External, 1 = Continuous 0
3 Electrostatic Control 0 = Custom, 1 = Classic 0
4 Powder Flow Control 0 = Smart, 1 = Classic 0
5 Cable Length 0 = 6 meters, 1 = 12 meters, 2 = 18 meters 0
System Operation
NOTE: Allow powder in feed hoppers to fluidize for
several minutes before spraying powder.
1. Turn on controller power. Make sure all gun
controllers are enabled. The displays on the gun
controller interfaces should light.
2. Multi-Gun Controller: Turn the interlock keyswitch
to READY.
3. External Trigger Mode: Start the conveyor and
run parts through the booth. The guns should be
triggered automatically by your triggering device.
Continuous Trigger Mode: Start the conveyor,
then press the Enable/Disable buttons to start
spraying power.
4. Adjust each controller to achieve the desired
spray pattern, powder flow rate, and transfer
efficiency.
On Initial Startup: With the gun triggered, air set to
zero, and no parts in front of the gun, record the A
output for each gun in the system. Monitor the A
output daily, under the same conditions. A significant
increase in A output indicates a probable short in
the gun resistor. A significant decrease indicates a
resistor or voltage multiplier that requires service.
