The pickup position to be adjusted depends on the component width W:
▪ Pickup position 1: W <= 0.5 mm
▪ Pickup position 2: 0.5 mm < W <= 1.5 mm
▪ Pickup position 3: 1.5 mm < W <= 3.5 mm
The set pickup position can be changed as follows:
NOTICE
When adjusting the pickup position the pitch display is used to represent the different positions.
The positions are assigned as follows:
►Pickup position 1 - LED 1
►Pickup position 2 - LED 2
NOTICE
Before the adjustment it may be necessary to select the desired track using the Track change
button.
►(1) Initial status: To change the pickup position of the
selected track the Set button is pressed first. This
button must be pressed during the whole adjustment
process.
►(2) Activating the adjustment function: In addition to
the Set button the Foil button is briefly pressed and
released. As a consequence the pitch display of the
selected track indicates the currently set pickup posi-
tion by flashing fast.
►(3) Changing the pickup position: As long as the Set
button is pressed, the pickup position can be
changed by briefly pressing the Forwards or Back-
wards button. The pitch display of the selected track
indicates the changed pickup position by flashing
fast.
►Completing the adjustment: If the desired pickup posi-
tion is set the SET button must be released. The
feeder module saves the modification and the sprock-
et wheel is moved to the selected position.
NOTICE
When a pickup position has been set, the feeder module automatically sets a pitch in which
most components with the dimensions defined for this pickup position are packed. Thus, an ad-
ditional adjustment of the pitch is necessary in rare cases only.
When the adjustment is completed, the feeder module will automatically change the position of
the sprocket wheel, if the pickup position has changed.
Pickup position and pitch are assigned as follows:
►Pickup position 1 - 2 mm pitch
►Pickup position 2 - 4 mm pitch
NOTICE
8 mm pitch
The 8 mm pitch must be adjusted manually later on, if the machine does not specifies this pitch.

When using tapes with an 8 mm component pitch, a component offset of 4 mm with respect to the pickup
position may occur after threading in the tape.
It is possible to correct this offset without changing the set 8 mm pitch and without re-threading the tape,
using the following function:

The adjustment is automatically cancelled, if the feeder module receives a request or conveyor
command from the machine or if the Set button is being pressed more than 30 seconds.
In these cases any modification made is cancelled and the previously set pickup position is re-
tained.
