AP 5.4 Gen II – AP 5.6
73
Start source
AP5.4 AP5.6
¯ Only if SYSTEM PARAMETER > Periph. device = „Dispenser“.
Choose a signal source for the start signal:
Foot switch Optional foot switch is used to generate the start signal.
Light barrier (Default setting) Photoelectric switch at the dispensing edge which detects
the taking off of the dispensed label.
¯ The setting "Light barrier" is unsuitable for product sensors! Product
sensors must be connected to the I/O board!
Calibration mode
AP5.4 AP5.6
¯ Only if SYSTEM PARAMETER > Periph. device = „Dispenser“.
¯ Is only effective with label material shorter than 40 mm!
If label material shorter than 40mm is used, the printer automatically initiali-
zes before printing. This measuring of the label material improves the impres-
sion accuracy. The initialization occurs in the following cases:
y After switching the printer on
y After opening and closing the printhead pressure lever.
¯ Advice: Start the material initialization manually before printing. This is
done by pressing the feed button in offline mode.
Selecting a material initialization procedure:
Automatic (Default) Material initialization is done automatically. Therefore, the label ma-
terial is fed forwards and backwards several times.
¯ There is a risk of the dispensing edge roller getting jammed by labels
sticking to it, which were dispensed by the forward/backward movement. If
this happens, use the setting „Manual“ instead.
Manual The label material is fed two or three label lengths forwards. If this is done,
dispense two labels by pressing the feed button - only afterwards, the initial-
ization is complete.
Start offset
AP5.4 AP5.6
Function for operation with product sensor.
Use this parameter to set the distance between product sensor (light barrier)
and dispensing edge. The recommended delay time is calculated of the
"Start delay" distance and the conveyor speed (= print speed in cases of di-
rect application).
xxx.x mm Setting range: 0.0 bis 999.9 mm; Unit interval: 0.1 mm;
Default setting: 0 mm
