Pickup Position for 8 mm 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:
CAUTION
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.
NOTICE
Before the adjustment it may be necessary to select the desired track using the Track change
button.
►(1) Initial status: To correct the pickup position of the
selected track by 4 mm, the press Set button first.
This button must be pressed during the whole adjust-
ment process.
►(2) Activating the adjustment function: In addition to
the Set button press the Forwards button; both but-
tons must be pressed simultaneously for at least 0.75
seconds. After this time LED 4 on the pitch display of
the selected track starts to flash slowly. At the same
time the tape is moved forwards in this track by 4 mm.
The Forwards button can now be released.
►(3) Changing the tape position: As long as the Set
button is pressed, you can move the tape forwards by
another 4 mm in the selected track, if necessary, by
briefly pressing the Forwards button. LED 4 on the
pitch display continues to flash slowly.
►Completing the adjustment: If the tape has reached its
desired position, the release Set button. The pitch
display shows the 8 mm pitch set for the selected
track.
CAUTION
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.
