Unit A Information: The Autotune Series of Variable Frequency Feeder Cubes® generates an output frequency for feeding
that is independent from the power line frequency. An optional vibration sensor, P/N 123-215, can be used to maintain the
vibratory feeder at a constant feed rate. The start/stop operation of the output can be controlled with an optional parts
sensor. For more information on this control, refer to the enclosed Adjustments and Set Up pages.
Units B & C Information: Each unit is based on the FC-200 Series Part Sensing Feeder Cube®. The start/stop operation
of the output can be controlled with an optional parts sensor. For more information on each unit, refer to the enclosed
Adjustments and Set Up pages. Unit B is interlocked (subordinate) to the operation of Unit A so that Unit B operates only
when Unit A is feeding parts. The interlock can be reconfigured. The Unit C operation is independent of the other units.
