Making Adjustments During
Operation for the Cutter
There are several adjustments you can make during normal cutting. These adjust-
ments include:
• In Timer Mode, adjust the time between cuts
• In Encoder and Follower Modes, adjust the length
• In Product Mode, adjust the hold-off time
• In Flywheel Mode, adjust blade speed (CSC only)
• Adjust blade speed in all modes except Follower
• Perform a manual cut and reset the length by pressing the manual cut
button at any time during on-demand cutting. Pressing Reset/Test has no
effect during continuous cutting.
• Count the total number of cuts by pressing the Total On/Off soft key. Use
the Reset button to return the count to zero. This feature is useful for col-
lecting samples during a production run.
• Count the batches of cuts by pressing the Total On/Off soft key. Use the
Reset button to return the count to zero. This feature is useful for collecting
samples during a production run.
• Stop cutting temporarily by setting Cut On/Off to off. This allows you to
view the cutting blade (through the window) or perform other tasks without
shutting down the cutter.
NOTE: While the controller will
allow you to switch modes dur-
ing operation, this is not rec-
ommended.
