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.

Changing the End Count Value

The Preset Data value is the end count, or tar-

get value, for the current job. The machine

will cease operation when the counter module

reaches this value. To continue tape move-

ment, press the RESET button on the counter

module.

This diagram shows the sequence for entering

new values in the Preset Data. This proce-

dure can be done with the Count Enable

Switch in either the UP or Down position.

Use the NEXT DIGIT key to select one digit to

change. The selected digit begins to flash.

Change the selected digit with the + and -

keys.

When all of the digits have been correctly set,

press the ENTER key to store the new value

in memory.

Startup Procedure

Turn the TM-300 Controller POWER switch to

ON. Press the START button to begin pro-

gram execution.

Run Mode

The Run Mode is the normal mode of opera-

tion for taping parts. In this mode the internal

software constantly monitors the PITCH,

TAPE SPEED, DWELL, and Emergency

STOP controls.

Pitch

For operation, it is essential that the PITCH

setting is correct for the type of carrier tape

used. The PITCH input allows the controlling

software to determine the correct carrier tape

movement and keep an accurate part count.

Tape Speed

Any time a motion begins, the controller reads

the TAPE SPEED inputs to determine the

velocity at which the carrier tape will travel.

Speed is entered in pps (pulses per second)

units. Any new TAPE SPEED setting will take

effect the next time a new motion is begun.

Dwell

After the carrier tape has advanced, the inter-

nal software reads the DWELL dial to deter-

mine how long the seal head should stay

down on the cover tape. Dwell times can be

selected from 0.25 to 1.00 second.

Controller Operation

Foot Switch (FSW)

Any time the FSW is momentarily pressed, the

TM-300 will advance the carrier tape, seal the

tape, and increment the counter. If the FSW is

pressed and held down, the previous cycle will

repeat until the FSW is deactivated.

Stop

If, for any reason, the operator needs to stop

any motion in progress, pressing the STOP

button will bring all motion to a controlled halt.

To continue a previously halted motion, press-

ing START will allow the motion to continue

from where it left off. Press the RESET button

followed by the START button to return to nor-

mal program mode.

Jog Mode (Tape Adjust)

In this mode, the operator may make fine

adjustments in the positioning of the carrier

tape. This feature is intended for initial posi-

tioning of the carrier tape before taping parts.

Fine positioning can be performed in either the

forward (FWD) or reverse (REV) directions.

FWD - Momentarily pressing the FWD button

advances the tape by 0.25mm. Pressing and

holding this button causes the tape to advance

4 times in 0.25mm increments, pause for one

second, and then jog continuously until the

button is released.

REV - Momentarily pressing the REV button

reverses the tape by 0.25mm. Pressing and

holding this button causes the tape to move

backwards in 0.25mm increments. Reverse

jogging is not allowed.

(Note: Care should be used when using the

REVERSE positioning button. The carrier/

cover tape may not freely feed back through

the sealer, cover tape guides, or loading track

mechanisms, causing a tape jam.)
