2.7.1. SME 8mm Tape Feeder Transport Pitch
The SME 8mm tape feeder feeds parts with feeding pitches of 2 and 4mm. That is, its
feeding pitch can be set in 2mm intervals. If the pitch lamp turns green, it means the feed
pitch is 2mm (2P state). If the pitch lamp turns off, it means the feed pitch is 4mm (4P
state). For the setup method, refer to ‘2.6 SME Tape Feeder Switch Operation Method’.

In addition, in order to change the pitch, press the ‘Home’ button or remove the feeder and
install it again and then press the ‘Home’ button. If the ‘Home’ button is not pressed, it
