CONFIGURATION MENU
1) PRINT/PWR REWIND/CRTCL ALRM TO DO10 (pg. 1)
Selecting “1” from the special options menu configures the source that drives digital output 10 (DO10).
The display in 1) will toggle between PRINT TO DO10 and PWR REWIND TO DO10 each time “1” is
pressed. Although the software drivers are supplied with the applicator, the hardware for a loose loop
printer, an imprinter, or a powered rewind is an option that must be purchased separately.
If 1) PRINT TO DO10 is selected (factory default), printer information is directed to DO10. This would
include output to a loose loop printer or an imprinter if either of these options are installed and enabled in
the “applicator options” menu.
If 1) PWR REWIND TO DO10 is selected, DO10 is used to drive a powered rewind system. A powered
rewind is recommended when web speeds are greater than 1500 “/min.
When CRITICAL TO: DO10 is selected at option “5” in the special options menu, CRTCL ALRM TO
DO10 is automatically displayed in 1) and pressing “1” will not change any options. This insures that if
critical alarms are being sent to DO10, the user can’t inadvertently turn off an alarm by pressing “1”.
Normally, the critical alarm to DO10 selection will not appear in this entry. It is provided to insure
backward compatibility with older software versions 360-2b.xx (see CRITICAL TO: DO10 explanation
below).
2) OFFLINE CRTL: ON/OFF (pg. 1)
The OFFLINE CRTL: ON/OFF entry allows the user to configure whether or not an “offline” condition is
a critical alarm. When this option is ON and the applicator is taken “offline”, a critical alarm will occur.
The display will toggle between on and off each time “2” is pressed.
3) NO LBLS FOUND CNT (pg. 1)
The NO LBLS FOUND CNT selection allows the user to configure the number of consecutive missing
labels that must appear on the liner web before a “NO LABELS FOUND” alarm occurs. In previous
software versions, it was fixed at 3. The user may now enter any integer number between 1 and 10.
4) NORMAL/HIGH SPEED (pg. 1)
The NORMAL/HIGH SPEED entry allows the user to select between either a “normal speed” or a “high
speed” applicator each time “4” is pressed.
If NORMAL SPEED is selected (factory default), the applicator will operate at web speeds up to 1500
“/min (25 “/sec).
If HIGH SPEED is selected, the applicator will operate at web speeds up to 2100 “/min (35 “/sec). Choose
this setting only if web speeds greater than 1500 “/min will be encountered in your application. The
powered rewind option is recommended when operating at these speeds due to web handling issues.
