55 Printer-Applicator-System PAM 3000
Warning Sensor Ribbon End
NOTICE !
The warning sensor ribbon end is only analyzed by the printer electronics if the
warning sensor label end is also installed.
Adjustment
With this setting the threshold diameter 34 to 41 mm for the warning message can be
adjusted.
1. Slide a transfer ribbon roll (6) with the intended threshold diameter onto the media
supply hub.
2. Switch on the printer. The sensor (3) sends out a beam (5). If the ribbon roll does not
interrupt the path of the beam, the beam is mirrored at the reflective foil (7) and
detected again by the sensor. In that case the LED at the sensor is on.
3. Loosen the screws (1) and move the sensor holder to the right as far as possible.
The LED at the sensor is off.
4. Slowly move back the sensor holder to the left until the LED at the sensor goes on.
5. Tighten the screws (1).

Mounting
1. Switch off the printer
2. Attach the sensor holder (2) with the warning sensor ribbon end (3) to the mounting
plate using the screws (1).
3. Plug the cable (4). For that the printer has a 3-pin connector at the side of the frame.
4. The contents of delivery include a reflective foil (7).
Remove the covering foil from the glued surface and stick the reflective foil (7) onto the
brake (8) below the ribbon hubs as shown in fig.14g. Make sure that the distance
between the reflective foil and the mounting plate (9) is about 15 mm.
