Keying In The No-Pack Distance - Thermo Scientific APEX 100 User Manual

Keying In the No-Pack Distance

The no-pack distance function—in conjunction with the pack-gap function—allows you to
fine-tune whether the APEX rejects only one or both units of product (also known as
"packs" or "packages") when there is uncertainty (explained in the "Keying In the Pack
Gap" section below) about which of the packs is contaminated.
In most conveyor applications it is best to enter identical values for the pack-length and
the no-pack distance functions.
1) Make sure the no-pack distance function is highlighted.

2) Press the Go button and an input screen appears.

3) Key in the same value you entered for the pack-length parameter. (In our example,
where we are testing packets of salted butter, we entered a value of 12.4 cm for the
no-pack distance.)
4) Press the Go button to save your setting and exit the input screen.
