The m600 basic determines the speed information in two different ways:
Measurement of the speed by means of pulse generator
For optimum printing results it is necessary to have precise speed meas-
urements. Since the speed of the product may fluctuate slightly (e.g. be-
cause of unevenness in the conveyor belt or starting and stopping of
production), the use of an external pulse generator is recommended.
Preset fixed speed
The product speed is entered in the menu "Pulse generator" (Chapter
6.2.1) . This mode does not take account of fluctuations in speed.
