10.2 Test mode without print job
You can simulate the labelling operation without a print job
by alternately tapping the Label feed button and the Cycle
button.
► Tap Label feed.
An empty label feed is triggered. At the same time, the vac-
uum at the stamp and the support air are activated. Once
the label has been completely transferred to the stamp, the
support air is switched o.
► Tap Cycle.
The lifting cylinder is activated so that the stamp moves to
the labelling position. The reaching of the labelling posi-
tion is signalled by the impact sensor. The vacuum is then
switched o and the label is transferred to the product.
Once the label has been transferred, the lifting cylinder is
reversed so that the stamp returns to the home position.
You can use this method during commissioning
to determine the appropriate dispensing oset in
the printer conguration.
10.3 Test mode with pending print job
This method lets you test the labelling operation with actual
print data using the Cycle button in the display.
► Send a print job.
The test mode runs in alternating half-cycles:
► Tap the Cycle button.
Half-cycle 1: The printing of one label is triggered. At the
same time, the vacuum at the stamp and the support air
are activated. Once the label has been completely trans-
ferred to the stamp, the support air is switched o.
► Tap the Cycle button again.
Half-cycle 2: The lifting cylinder is activated so that the
stamp moves to the labelling position. The reaching of the
labelling position is detected by the impact sensor. The
vacuum is then switched o and the label is transferred to
the object. Once the label has been transferred, the lifting
cylinder is reversed so that the stamp returns to the home
position.
If, after completing half-cycle 1, the label on the stamp is
removed manually, when next pressing the Cycle button
the print job continues with the printing of the next label in
half-cycle 1.
You can use this method during commissioning
to determine the appropriate dispensing oset in
the software.
