LABEL OPTIONS SETUP

LABEL OPTIONS

This section will discuss options that control how the applicator dispenses a label or handles a missing

label on the liner web. These options appear in the “APPLICATOR OPTIONS” menu and are password

protected. The password is 1800.

MULTIPLE LABEL: The multiple label option allows more than one label to be applied to a product

from one product detect signal.

MISSING LABEL: The missing label option monitors all labels between the peel edge and the label

sensor. If a label is missing, the applicator will advance another label to the peel

edge to insure that all products are labeled.

SKIP COUNTER: The skip counter option allows the applicator to label every x

product and skip the

rest.

MULTIPLE LABEL SETUP

The applicator has the ability to apply multiple labels per product detect signal. The number of labels per

product detect signal and the center-to-center distance between the labels is configured in the multiple label

submenu.

1. Press the “APPLICATOR OPTIONS” key and select “7) MULTI-LBL” to enter the multiple label

submenu.

2. Select “1) MULTI-LABEL FUNCTION: ON” to enable the option. Pressing “1” repeatedly will

toggle the multi-label function on and off.

3. Select “2) NUMBER OF LABELS PER PRODUCT” and enter the number of labels to be applied

to each product. A valid entry between 1 and 99 will take you back to the multiple label submenu.

4. Select “3) LABEL CNTR-TO-CNTR DISTANCE” and enter the center-to-center distance

between the labels. The minimum center-to-center distance is either equal to label length or the

time it takes to travel label length at the current web speed depending on whether the encoder is

on or off. A valid entry will take you back to the multiple label submenu.

5. Press “ENTER” to return to the main menu.

NOTE: 1) If the encoder is turned on, the units are in inches. Otherwise, they are in seconds.

2) If the label center-to-center distance is too small, a message will appear on the display

warning you that the applicator cannot keep up. The applicator will continue labeling

but label placement will not be accurate.

3) Label profiling, leading edge apply, and missing label options are disabled when multiple

label is on.

4) After software version 360-2c.10.1 the skip counter option and the display jog function

will work correctly with the multiple label option.
