TMS STRING PINSPOTTER OWNER’S MANUAL
400-051-010-01 Rev. Date: 7/17 Page 2-12
This alternate string adjustment method is required for software version 2.13 and older (not CE
compliant):
1. If it is not already ON, turn on power to the pinspotter.
Warning: High voltage is present in the pin detector circuit board assembly.
2. Unlock and open the plastic cover at the front of the machine. This provides access to
the pin detector circuit board assembly and the string take-up reel assemblies.
3. Select the String Adjust function using either the pin detector circuit board
pushbuttons (preferred) or the control chassis keypad. If using the keypad, return to
the main screen by pressing the EXIT pushbutton twice so the counts can observed.
The pinspotter drawbar will drive to the rear of the machine and stop at the String
Adjust position. The chassis display for that machine will indicate ADJUST and
show the counts. Wait until the counts stop changing and indicate 0 5 counts. If
the counts are outside of the range of 0 5, repeat step 3.
4. Adjust the strings with the take-up reels (pull the reel out from the reel arm and
rotate) so that the pins just touch the stabilizing rings on the underside of the lower
table, are all at the same height, and so that the top of the reel arms are still touching
the rear reel arm stopper (see Figure 2-2).

5. When the string adjustment is complete, press the CYCLE pushbutton on the control
chassis keypad. The machine will perform a pin deck calibration to relocate the pin
deck following a string adjustment.
6. Press the MODE pushbutton on the control chassis keypad to exit the Mechanics
Mode and to lock the keypad. (If the chassis Functions menu was used instead of the
pin detector circuit board pushbuttons, press the EXIT pushbutton to relock the
keypad.)
7. When adjustments have been completed, close and lock the front cover.
