4.4 Control of dispense unit
4.4.1 Dispenser Menu selection
Turning on the mains switch and at the same time pressing one of the panel keys, you may
select between several options:
PANEL KEY
& mains switch
Function Display message
FEED Material initialisation INIT
NEXT FUNCTION Standard menu ON
PRIOR FUNCTION Product menu PD0n
ENTER Configuration menu CODE
Press the key as long as the display shows the version number. One of the above mentioned
messages appears in the display. Calling the product menu is only possible, if at least one
product bank has been programmed.
If you do not press a panel key while turning on the machine the same menu is active that has
been used before the machine was switched off.
4.4.2 Missing label function and web breaks
The missing label function stops the label web in the correct position even when a label is
missing from the label web. If there are more than 3 missing labels from the web then the
machine will stop and give the correct message E_1.
If the label web has broken or come to an end then the machine will no longer be able to find
the next leading label edge and so after more than 3 signals from the product sensor the error
message E_1 will also be generated.
4.4.3 Display and data input
The operator panel controls the operation of the machine. Data can be displayed and changed.
The displays have different meanings:
y Parameter selection:
In the display a parameter is shown, e.g. POS, STAD, or PD02 (product menu no. 02). By
pressing the keys FUNCTION another parameter can be selected. By pressing the key
ENTER the data is displayed.
y Data display:
The display shows the values of the parameters (e.g. 0123) or possible adjustments e.g.
(AUTO). Pressing the FUNCTION keys changes the data value. By pressing the key
ENTER the data input is completed and a new parameter is shown.
