IS3W/MTC Sensor Features

The IS3W/MTC devices are electronic sensors able to measure and control, thanks to a sophisticated
patented control technique, the amount of yarn collected by the textile machine and to stop the position when
the desired amount (TARGET) is reached. The image variation technique makes the IS3W/MTC device free
of environmental/yarn conditions, such as humidity, conductivity and machine vibrations, and, even more
important, does not require any contact with the yarn under control, thus allowing a perfect monitoring,
without affecting the tension characteristics of the yarn itself.
The IS3W/MTC devices are fully programmable and easy adaptable to the quality control of any type of yarn.

Function of the IS3W/MTC Sensors

Touch Light
See connection examples in charter 1 "Connections and Electrical Interface"
The IS3W/MTC sensors allow the real time detection of strokes, i.e. the crossings
of yarn within the optical reading zone
set TARGET; furthermore, if properly programmed, they can detect the yarn
broken/missing condition.
The IS3W/MTC sensors have two signaling lights (green LED and red LED) and an
optical button "Touch Light".
The "Touch Light" is used to perform the Automatic Numbering and Counter Reset
operations.
During the automatic numbering of the sensors (blinking green LED), it is sufficient
to skim the "Touch Light" to assign the sensor the number shown on device
configuration screen.
On the contrary, to reset the counters you must continuously touch the sensor for
at least one second; this avoids possible undesired resets due to brief accidental
contacts.
