Operation
Tension is adjusted using the external 10 kohm tension pot.
Rewind taper can be adjusted using the FULL pot. Counter Clockwise rotation of the FULL pot will
decrease the tension at full roll, thereby increasing the amount of taper.
If the stop multiplier function is used, Clockwise rotation of the STOP MULT pot will increase the
stopping torque. Clockwise rotation of the STOP TIME pot will increase the time that the stopping torque
is applied. The STOP TIME may be adjusted from 0.2 to 60 seconds.

Dancer Applications
5.1
Electrical Connections
Figure 5 shows the connections that are required for the basic dancer system. They are:
24 vdc power
Current-To-Pressure Transducer
DFP or DFP-2 dancer position sensor
Jumper between terminal 12 & 13
All inputs and outputs have the negative lead referenced to ground.

Sensor Setup
The DFP or DFP-2 position sensor should be at the center of rotation when the dancer is halfway
through its travel. This is an approximate adjustment and is intended to center the sensor position to
allow maximum rotation in both directions during operation.
DFP
Adjust the DFP sensor shaft so that its keyway is pointing towards the top cover when the dancer is half
way through its travel. This is an approximate adjustment, and is intended to center the sensor position
to allow maximum rotation in both directions during operation.
