• Move the swivel arm into the upright position, i.e., the vertical angle equals zero de-
grees (0°). This will be the position in which all following calibration steps will be per-
formed.
• Select Calibration in the main menu, under Configuration > Compression.
Calibrating preset force 3 kp
• Position the cursor in the data field of the reset force 3 kp row with the help of the tabula-
tor, i.e. “TAB key” on the keyboard. Turn the potentiometer F max. for preset force on
the front top of the compression unit as far in the counter-clockwise direction as possi-
ble (until its mechanical stop).
• Press F3 (calibrate), then press F4 (update). The unit should now have stored the sam-
pled value (in hexadecimals), corresponding to the minimum possible preset force of
3kp .
Calibrating preset force 20 kp
• Position the cursor in the data field of the preset force 20 kp row with the help of the
“TAB key” on the keyboard. Turn the potentiometer F max. for the preset force on the
front top of the compression unit as far in the clockwise direction as possible (until its
other mechanical stop).
• Press F3 (calibrate), then press F4 (update). The unit should now have stored the sam-
pled value (in hexadecimals), corresponding to the maximum possible preset force of
20 kp .
NOTE
The potentiometer F max. for the preset force should remain at
maximum throughout the entire calibration.
Calibrating the thickness bottom
When the thickness bottom is calibrated, no compression plate should be attached to the
compression unit. Move the sled of the compression unit to its lowest position by means
of the foot switch.
• Move the cursor to the data field for thickness bottom. The actual position of the
two-digit cursor in the four-digit data field is of no importance.
• Press F3 (calibrate), then press F4 (update).
Calibrating the thickness bottom mm
• Move the cursor to the data field for thickness bottom mm.
• Use the PC keyboard to enter the value 0 (zero) in the data field.
Calibrating the thickness top
• Move the cursor to the data field for thickness top. The actual position of the two-digit
cursor in the four-digit data field is of no importance.
• Move the sled of the compression unit to its highest position by means of the foot
switch.
• Press F3 (calibrate), then press F4 (update).
