Positioner Preset Settings
See Figure 6-1. To set up a preset for a positioner:
1. Use the Preset Selector to select a preset number first. All settings you
make apply to the selected preset. The preset settings for each
positioner are displayed on the screen.
NOTE: If no changes have been made to the preset settings since the
screen was opened, the Not Modified icon is displayed. If you make a
change, the Modified icon is displayed instead.
2. If you want to view the Default Settings for a positioner, use the
Positioner Selector. The default settings are displayed in the row to
the right of the selector.
3. Set Lead and Lag distances for gun moving.
Lead: Distance from the guns to the leading edge of the part. At the
lead the guns are moved to the position setting.
S A positive lead moves the guns BEFORE the leading edge of the
part reaches the guns.
S A negative lead moves the guns AFTER the leading edge of the part
reaches the guns.
Lag: Distance from the guns to the trailing edge of the part to the guns.
At this setting, the guns are moved in or out.
S A positive lag moves the guns AFTER the trailing edge of the part
passes the guns.
S A negative lag moves the guns BEFORE the trailing edge of the part
passes the guns.
4. Set the Positioning Mode to Fixed or Variable with the F/V mode
button.
Variable Positioning: Gun-to-part distance to maintain while the part is
moving past the guns (contouring). This is the default positioning
method.
Fixed Positioning: Position measured from zero (forward limit switch).
When a part with a fixed position setting arrives, the positioner moves to
the fixed position and remains there until a new part arrives with either:
S no preset move settings (default settings are used) or
S different preset move settings.
