Summa S2 SERIES - 3.4 Calibrating OPOS

OPOS 3-13
Calibrating OPOS
To ensure that OPOS is working accurately, two calibrations are necessary: the OPOS
calibration and the media calibration. The OPOS calibration is the calibration of the distance
between the knife tip and the sensor. The media calibration “teaches” the cutter the reflection
levels of the mark colour and the media colour.
NOTE: Although the OPOS sensor has been calibrated in the factory, Summa
recommends doing a test to determine how well the factory-set parameters work
with the materials you are using. If the accuracy is not what is expected, then
perform the OPOS calibration.

OPOS will read the edges of the square and calibrate itself accordingly.

this calibration each time the knife is been replaced.
