NUMERIC QUICK REFERENCE

CP-01

SETPOINT 1

The Setpoint parameters are set up as pairs in conjunction with the Traverse Length parameters.
There are four pairs of Setpoint and Traverse Length parameters. The Setpoint value is entered
in Engineering Units (E.U.s) and automatically displays the decimal position that was entered in
the Engineering Units (CP-15). The Setpoint parameter determines how far the Follower travels
based on the Lead. The Follower travels the setpoint distance while the Lead travels the
distance entered into CP-16. In the level wind application, the Setpoint parameters are the
laypitch (center-to-center distance between windings on the reel). In the web scanning
application, the Setpoint parameters are the traverse length. These preset parameters can be
set up as a switch (via the Setpoint Select switches) which gives the operator the option of
changing over the product up to four times.

CP-02

TRAVERSE LENGTH 1

The Traverse Length parameters are set up as pairs in conjunction with the Setpoint parameters.
There are four pairs of Setpoint and Traverse Length parameters. The Traverse Length value is
entered in Engineering Units (E.U.s) and the decimal position that was entered in the
Engineering Units (CP-15) parameter is automatically displayed. The traverse length is the
distance that the Follower mechanism will travel. In level wind applications, the traverse length is
generally the length of the reel. In web scanning applications, the traverse length is generally the
width of the web. The traverse length measurement corresponds to the setpoint measurement.
For example, in a level wind application, you may have a reel that measures one foot, that is
wrapped with two inch hose. You would enter "2" (inches) in Setpoint 1 (CP-01) and "12"
(inches) in Traverse Length 1 (CP-02).

CP-03

SETPOINT 2

The Setpoint parameters are set up as pairs in conjunction with the Traverse Length parameters.
There are four pairs of Setpoint and Traverse Length parameters. The Setpoint value is entered
in Engineering Units (E.U.s) and automatically displays the decimal position that was entered in
the Engineering Units (CP-15). The Setpoint parameter determines how far the Follower travels
based on the Lead. The Follower travels the setpoint distance while the Lead travels the
distance entered into CP-16. In the level wind application, the Setpoint parameters are the
laypitch (center-to-center distance between windings on the reel). In the web scanning
application, the Setpoint parameters are the traverse length. These preset parameters can be
set up as a switch (via the Setpoint Select switches) which gives the operator the option of
changing over the product up to four times.
