Adjusting the Low Cover Sensor
The Low Cover Sensor alerts the operator at the begin-
ning of a job if there is not enough cover tape loaded on
the Cover Tape Reel to complete the job.
Loosen the screws on the Cover Tape Low Sensor to
adjust it's position. It should rest so the sensor light is
positioned at the minimum level of cover tape required
to complete a job.
If sensor sensitivity needs to be fine tuned, adjust the
amplifiers at the base of the Cover Tape Arm. For more
information on the sensor/amplifier, refer to Appendix
A: Sensors
No further setup is required. The Low Cover Sensor is
ready to operate.

Adjusting the Tape Jam Sensor
The Tape Jam Sensor is located on the Taper track
just before the Sealer. It detects if parts are doubled up
or incorrectly placed in a carrier tape pocket so that
the part protrudes above the level of the track and
would interfere with cover tape placement.
If sensor sensitivity needs to be fine tuned, adjust the
amplifiers at the base of the Cover Tape Arm. For
more information on the sensor/amplifier, refer to
Appendix A: Sensors.
No further setup is required. The Jam In Tape Sensor
is ready to operate.
