4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 until all FormFlex pins raise during tooling setup.
5. Press the green reset button.
6. Press the black exercise button to cycle the pins and fluid cut-off valves of
the tooling modules.
7. If one or more pins remain lowered after this procedure, replace the tooling
module.
Module Air Check Carry out this procedure if print process issues are being caused by the board
not being fully supported by a tooling module.
1. Gain access to the manual tooling plate.
2. During FormFlex setup, hold down 1 pin on the suspect tooling module until
the setup is complete.
3. Release the pin. If it rises more than 10mm there is excessive amount of
air in the tooling module.
4. Replace the the tooling module if it is causing print process issues and
contact DEK.
