e)
The system now needs an upper calibration point. With the press slide as near as possible
to bottom dead center (180 degrees), use the JOG UP and JOG DOWN softkeys to take
the slide near the top of the adjustment range. The slide should be slightly lower than the
upper limit that was entered on the slide configuration screen. Take the measurement of
the shut height in this position as carefully and accurately as possible and without
moving the slide enter the number as requested on the screen.
Press the CONTINUE SLIDE CAL. softkey to continue the calibration process or EXIT
to return to slide configuration.
f)
Finally, the lower calibration point must be set. Use the JOG UP and JOG DOWN
softkeys to take the slide near the bottom of the adjustment range. The slide should be
slightly higher than the lower limit entered on the slide configuration screen. Take the
measurement of the shut height in this position as carefully and accurately as possible and
without moving the slide enter the number as requested on the screen.
Press the CONTINUE SLIDE CAL. softkey to continue the calibration process or EXIT
to return to slide configuration.
g)
The slide system should now be calibrated. Check for proper operation by running the
slide up near the top of the adjustment range and checking the slide position reported.
Repeat this process with the slide near the bottom of the adjustment range.
NOTE: It is very important make as accurate a measurement as possible for
the Upper and Lower Calibration Points. If these measurements are
wrong, then the slide position reported by the system will also be
wrong!

WARNING: After calibration always check for proper operation of the slide
adjust system as wiring or transducer faults could cause an
invalid calibration. Bad measurements could result in damage to
the machine and tooling, and can cause injury or death.
