EYE [X.XV]
INPUT [X.XV]
EYE - When setting the “eye” threshold, the voltage must be
measured with nothing but the label under the sensor and
then again withthe printed “eye” mark under the sensor. The
formula for this is:
(High Voltage Level + Low Voltage Level) x 0.5 = Start Value
1. Insert a label into the sensor and close the Label
Hold-Down. Make sure the printed “eye” mark is not under
the sensor. Record the voltage shown on the top line of
the LCD panel. This line should have the message “EYE”
on the top line (DIP switch DSW2-2 = ON).
2. Now pull the label forward until the “eye” mark is
positioned under the sensor (the voltage reading should
be at its highest point). Record the voltage shown on the
top line of the LCD panel. The voltage ranges measured
should be within the following ranges:
Label Only = 0.3 to 0.7V
Eye-Mark
≥
1.2V above low value
If the measured values are outside this range, you may
have trouble in finding a value that will work properly
under all conditions. If this is the case, a higher quality
label may be needed to get adequate performance.
3. Calculate the starting point voltage using the formula.
4. Use the LINE key to step the counter to the desired
setting. The display will increment one step for each time
the LINE key is pressed. If the LINE key is held pressed
for more than two seconds, it will automatically go into the
fast scroll mode. The reading will advance to a setting of
3.3 (the maximum voltage) after which it will automatically
wrap and start at “0.0” again. If a value of “0.0” is set, the
printer will automatically set the level each time the printer
is powered on with labels loaded or the head is closed.
5. Once the setting is correct, pressing the FEED key will
accept the setting and advance to the Online Feed
display.
ONLINE FEED
YES NO
This selection specifies whether or not the printer will
automatically feed a blank label when it is placed in the Online
mode.
1. Use the LINE key to step the cursor to desired setting. If
Yes is selected, the printer will feed a blank label anytime
it enters the Online mode. If No is selected, the display
will advance to the mode display.
FEED ON ERROR
YES NO
This selection specifies whether or not the printer will feed a
blank label automatically when an error condition is cleared..
1. Use the LINE key to step the cursor to desired setting. If
Yes is selected, the printer will feed a blank label anytime
an error condition is cleared. If No is selected, the display
will advance to the mode display.
