Back Length is used for Cut-to-Length application to protect the material against bending up by the blade. If any value is
assigned for this parameter, the feed will move material back for the distance that equals Back Length when Reset Cam
input is turned “On” by the blade bottom position sensor. The Back Length is compensated on the next move, so it has
no affect on the Length parameter. It is a numeric entry, with a range of 0 to 1 inch.
Kerf is a cutting tool width and used for Cut-to-Length application to compensate for a loss of the Length caused by
width of the tool. It is a numeric entry, with a range of 0 to 10 inches.
Max length is a Length limit and protects against accidental entering extra digits, for example: 100 inch instead of 10
inch. It is a numeric entry, with a range of 0 to 999999. (This value is factory set to 20.000.)

PLS Counts/Rev is an amount of pulses the PLS encoder produces per revolution. This is a tuning parameter. In order to
change its value, consult P/A Industries Service Department.
Press Offset is a difference between PLS and Press absolute positions in degrees. It is a numeric value, with a range of 0
to 360. See HOW TO SYNCHRONIZE PRESS AND PLS section of this manual for further details.

Length Mode is a parameter that selects whether the feeder works in the Control or Check mode. Entering a "0" selects
Control mode and "I" selects Check mode.
Length Check is a parameter that defines the Check mode tolerance. It is a numeric entry with a range of 0.00 to
5.00 inch.
Strip Scale is the Strip Encoder scaling parameter used to define the number of encoder counts/inch. It is a numeric
entry with a factory value 3386.17.

Profile: is a parameter that defines whether the feed motion profile is Linear or S-Curve. In other words, the motion
profile is triangle or trapezoidal with linear acceleration / deceleration, or acceleration / deceleration is S-shaped. (Refer to
the picture below) The S-Curve becomes handy on applications with possible-material slippage between the rolls of the
feed. Entering a "0" selects Linear mode and "I" selects S-Curve mode.
