LineMaster
Adjustments
When in the locked mode, manual adjustments to the rate of grams per length (g/l) can be entered
through the LineMaster (XCC) Controller. Adjustments can be made two ways:
Incremental Adjustments
Incremental adjustments are made using the up and down arrows on the
keypad of the LineMaster (XCC) Controller. Press and release once of the
arrow keys increments up or down by one tenth of a gram. Pressing and
holding of the arrow keys will rapidly increase or decease the value.
Incremental entries can only be made in the locked mode.
Keypad Entry
Keypad adjustments are made using the keypad button located above the up
and down arrows on the keypad (pic). Pressing the keypad button, will
display: ENTER TARGET _ _ _ _ _.
Enter the value of grams per length (g/l) using all 5 digits (the last digit is in
10ths). Be sure to include any leading zeros (example: 120.0 grams per length
(g/l) would be entered as 01200.) Keypad entries can only be entered in the
locked mode.
LOCK Options
On the LineMaster (XCC) Controller keypad, between the up and down
arrows, is a LOCK key. This LOCK key can be used to Lock grams per length
(g/l), overriding the LineMaster Extruder Speed Control MANUAL / LOCK
switch. To use the keypad LOCK option, the LTP parameter in the
LineMaster (XCC) Controller must be set to LTP 1xxxx, where the first digit
in this parameter is set to a 1. Setting the LTP parameter to use this option
will de-activate (and ignore) the LineMaster Extruder Speed Control MANUAL
/ LOCK switch.
Shutdown
Normal Shutdown Procedure – First switch the LineMaster Extruder Speed Control into
MANUAL position. Then rotate the ADJUST pot counterclockwise (at your desired rate of
decrease), eventually reaching zero volts (zero RPM).
