ADJ 4.18 Clamp Pressure Adjustment It is recommended that the clamp pressure be set to the same setting as the main pressure of 80-90 psi. However there may be times when it is desirable to decrease the clamp pressure, such as for books with soft covers or soft spines. Be aware that reducing clamp pressure may af- fect the final cut quality of the books.
ADJ 4.19 Gripper Clamp Pressure Use the following procedure to adjust the gripper clamp pressure to the recommended setting of 0.2 to 0.3 MPa. Initial Actions Check that the air supply is switched on. Re- move the power panel door in order to gain ac- cess to the pneumatic manifold (Figure 4-30).
ADJ 4.20 Face Jog Pressure Use the following procedure to adjust the face jog pressure to the recommended setting of 0.2 to 0.3 MPa. Initial Actions Check that the air supply is switched on. Re- move the power panel door in order to gain ac- cess to the pneumatic manifold (Figure 4-31).

GP 6.4 Input/Output LEDs The main PWB has LED indicators for each in- put and output. Certain status indicator RAPs may refer to these. The main PWB is located in the power panel area (Figure 6-4). The location and numbering of these LEDs are shown in Figure 6-5.
GP 6.5 Input Testing The following procedure is a generic illustration of testing sensors and switches and the main PWB. Although each sensor/switch test may vary, this procedure illustrates the basic con- cept. Initial Actions For sensors (Figure 6-6), always clean the sen- sor surface first, and then re-test the machine.
GP 6.6 Output Testing The following procedure is a generic illustration of testing output devices and the main PWB. Although each output device test may vary, this procedure illustrates the basic concept. Because many outputs have multiple compo- nents between the output and the controlled de- vice, it is often necessary to test every compo- nent between the PWB output and the controlled device.

Note any change in software revision on the cover of the Service Log. ment If the software chip (PROM) on the main PWB is faulty or in need of upgrade, it can be replaced using the following procedure. The revision level of the software is printed on the PROM and also is displayed when the CMT130 is switched on and initialized.
