Description - Operating Controls (cont.)

Start Button (Ref. G)

This button starts execution from the current

program line number. Pressing the START

button after a RESET will start execution at

the first program line. Pressing the START

button after an Emergency Stop (

E-Stop

) will

start the program at the line where the E-Stop

was detected.

Seal (Ref. H)

When set to ON, the seal is enabled.

When set to OFF, the seal is disabled.

Dwell (Ref. I)

The dwell knob is used to set the amount of

time the heat seal shoes remain on the cover

tape. There are 16 Dwell settings ranging

from 0.25 to 1.00 seconds in 0.05 second

intervals.

Temperature Controls (Ref. K and M)

The temperature controls set the temperature

of the heat shoes to a level that will cause the

heat sensitive adhesive on the cover tape to

melt. There are two separate controls:

Inner Seal (Ref. M)

This is the seal head closest to the

sprocket side of the carrier tape.

Outer Seal (Ref. K)

This is the seal head closest to the out-

side edge of the carrier tape as viewed

facing the machine.

Pitch (Ref. J)

The PITCH control is used to set software

parameters which control the drive sprocket

motor and the counter. For the TM-300 Con-

troller, PITCH refers to the distance (mm)

between pocket centers in the carrier tape.

The current factory default settings allow the

following PITCH settings:

4mm, 8mm, 12mm, 16mm, 20mm,

24mm, and 32mm.

Tape Speed (Ref. L)

This set of 4 Thumbwheel switches is used to

determine tape velocity. Speeds are entered

in pps (pulses per second) units. A new

speed may be selected whenever motion is

not in progress.

(Note: Acceleration/deceleration, and ramp-

ing profiles can be changed via software by

downloading programs with these parameters

varied).

Counter (Ref. N)

The counter keeps an accurate count of the

number of parts taped. The counter will auto-

matically keep an accurate parts count for any

tape pitch (pocket width). For counter opera-

tion, refer to the SETTING COUNTER section

of this manual.

Count (Ref. O)

In the ON position, the counter is enabled.

In the OFF position, the counter is disabled.

To set the target temperature, simply use the

Increment and Decrement keys to adjust the

set point display (Ref. C).

Figure 2.4

(Rear Panel)

Serial/Parallel Switch (Ref. A)

When this switch is set to SERIAL, new soft-

ware programs can be downloaded from a

personal computer (PC) to the TM-300 Con-

troller. For reliable operation, this switch

should be set to PARALLEL when operating in

normal RUN or STEP/JOG mode. When

downloading software, this switch must be set

to the SERIAL position.

Reset (Ref. B)

Pressing this button will stop current program

execution and reset the program line pointer

to the first line of the current program.

NOTE

The START button must be pressed to

restart program execution after Reset is acti-

vated.

RS-232 Conector (Ref. C)

This port allows communication between an

IBM compatible PC and the TM-300.

FSW (Ref. D)

This connector connects the footswitch to the

TM-300 controller.

Peripheral (Ref. E)

This connector provides connections from the

TM-300 Controller to motors on the machine.

Fuse (Ref. F)

The TM-300 uses a 1.5 Amp, 250 Volt, type

3AG fuse.

115VAC (AC Power Input) (Ref. G)

This is a 115VAC, 50-60 HZ input for AC

power.

Sealer (Ref. H)

Connects the heat seal assembly to the tem-

perature controllers.

I/O (Input/Output) (Ref. I)

This connector is reserved for future use. It

provides TWO logic level Inputs, one Motion

Busy Output, and a circuit Common, for future

hardware/software flexibility.

Air Regulator (Not Shown)

Connects the TM-300 to the air supply and

regulates the air pressure.

Counter Controls

Figure 2.5

Figure 2.6

Counter Module (Figure 2.5)

PST-Preset Select

This key can be used to select data to be dis-

played when the PGM input is active, although

for normal operation of the TM-300 this key is

not used.

Next Digit

This key selects one digit of data to be

changed. The first keypress will select the

left-most digit; additional presses will select

digits further to the right. The chosen digit will

flash twice per second. That digit may then be

changed with the + and - keys

+/- Increment/Decrement

The (+) key will change the selected (flashing)

digit of Preset or Program Data by adding 1 to

it. Rollover occurs from 9 back to 0. The (-)

key similarily subtracts 1, and will roll under

from 0 to 9. Holding either key down will

cause the digit to change repeatedly about

twice per second.

RST (Reset)

The counter is reset to 0 when this key is

pressed.

ENT (Enter)

This key transfers edited Preset or Program

Data to nonvolatile memory. The newly

selected value is not used until the ENTER

key is pressed. During normal operation a ten

second timer is in effect. If a Preset has been

changed but not entered, the Preset Data will

revert back to its old value after ten seconds of

inactivity.

Count Enable Switch (Figure 2.6)

The Count Enable Switch has two positions:

up and down.

In this position, the counter will be in its normal

operating mode. The count value will incre-

ment as the tape moves through the TM-300,

dependent on the setting of the Prescale value

(Pitch Setting).

Down

In this position, the counter will be disabled.

The TM-300 will function normally but the

count value will not increase.
