Section 4.6.4.1 Configure Auxiliary Counter Names
The names of the seven auxiliary counters can be programmed by the user. The names of the Order, Batch,
and Quality counters are fixed and cannot be programmed.
To change an auxiliary counter name position the cursor on the counter name to be changed and press the
CHANGE NAME softkey. The text edit box will appear and the name can be entered. Press the ENT key
to save the name and exit the text editor.
Section 4.6.4.2 Configure Counter Count By Value
The Count By value of all counters can be programmed. Normally this value is one. However, on certain
applications, such as multi part out dies, this value can be a number other than one. A counter will increase
its value by the programmed Count By value. If a die produced two parts each stroke, the Count By value
of the Order Counter should be two. The counter will increase its value by two every time it increases.
To change the increment value position the cursor on the Counts By value to be changed, press the
CHANGE INCREMENT softkey, enter the new number, and press the ENT key
Section 4.6.4.3 Configure Counter Every How Many Stroke Value
The number of press strokes between counter increments can be programmed. Normally this value is one.
However, on certain applications, such as lamination dies, this value can be a number other than one. If a
die produces a part every ten strokes, the Counter Every How Many Stroke value should be set to ten. The
counter will increase its count every ten press strokes.
To change the number of strokes value position the cursor on the Counts By value to be changed, press the
