4.9 Setting Up the Conveyor

To set up the conveyor, proceed as follows:
1. Select Menus > Service > Configuration > System to display the System menu options which
are listed and described below.
2. Use the Navigation Keys
to enable the value to be edited.
3. Use the Navigation Keys
OK / Enter Key to confirm the selection.
4. Repeat step 2 and 3 until you have selected and confirmed values for each option.
The System menu options available are as follows:
Photo-eye
This option refers to the optional Product Registration Photo-eye that is located on the infeed of
the conveyor. When the option is enabled the photo-eye acts as a timing start point for both
correct detection and subsequent reject timing functions.
Select the YES option if a photo-eye is fitted and the NO option if it is not.
PEC fault
This option is displayed if the Photoeye option has been set to YES. When the option is enabled,
should the photo-eye become blocked for any reason a system fault will be generated.
Depending on the reject and conveyor setup the conveyor will then stop and/or a reject
actuation will occur. Three options are available for selection as follows:
Off
l
Selecting this option disables the PEC fault functionality.
Latched
l
Select this option if the fault must be manually cleared after the PEC has been unblocked.
Auto Clear (default)
l
Select this option if the fault is automatically cleared after the PEC has been unblocked.
PEC length
To ensure the correct operation of the detector and reject systems it is extremely important to
ensure that this setting is correct.
The calculation for this entry, measured in mm or inches, depends on the Units option selected in
the Menus > Service > Configuration > General menu. It is calculated as follows:
1. Measure the distance from the Product Registration Photo-eye to the face of the detector (L).
2. Measure the depth of the detector case (D).
