Calibrating the IXR Function

There are two basic steps to calibrating the IXR function, as follows.
•

Learn the X and R noise thresholds.

• Learn the detect levels (for both the X and R signals).
In addition, if you are going to use the IXR function for long production runs lasting
several hours or days, you should make sure the IXR tracking function is set to "On"
(the default value).
Learn the X and R Noise Thresholds
Please note it is very important that, while calibrating the X and R noise thresholds, you
run the conveyor at exactly the same speed you will use during your normal production
runs. Thus, if you decide at a later date, to change the speed of the conveyor during
your normal production runs, you must recalibrate the X and R noise thresholds.
To calibrate the X and R noise thresholds, do the following.
