3BUS 208 000 R130184 Platform Tuning
9. The utility will ask whether you want to use automatic (a) or manual (m)
determination of the far limit switch position. The preferred method is manual.
In manual, you should first force the head into the far mechanical stop position
after reaching the limit switch, then press RETURN.
The utility will display the measured value, in customer units, of the current
position of the head package, shown in Figure 5-8. If acceptable, press return.
If the value does not seem reasonable, repeat this step.
If automatic, jog the Scanning Platform head package to the far limit switch,
using the JOG push buttons. When the head package has reached the limit
switch, wait one second and then return the head to the home end and place in
remote.
10. The utility provides the option of establishing a process centerline point. The
utility will then ask if you want to use the machine centerline to determine setup.
For all but aseptic applications, you should answer no (n). The process
centerline setup enables the system to establish reasonable scan limits and speed
apart from further setup and control by a host computer. A “no” (n) answer
advances you to the next step. A “yes” answer (y) answer asks you to jog the
head to the position on the platform which represents the centerline of the
process. Then, press the RETURN key. In either case, a final summary of the
head position calibration procedure will be displayed as shown in Figure 5-9.
11. To save the head position calibration values determined in this procedure, press
RETURN when prompted by the utility as shown in Figure 5-9. There is a
separate prompt for io.ini, frame.ini, and appl.ini.
The new calibration values will be saved to the current .ini file so that they will
be available when the Scanning Platform is restarted.
Since the head position calibration tuning has been changed, it is necessary to
reload the Host computer head positions with the Scanning Platform, by using
the PMMRLD command.
