How
to set up an AZCO Unit
1. Turn the power switch to the "ON"
position. The LCD will illuminate and display:
AZCO
CUTTER
SETUP? 1-Y 2-N
Step
through the setup by pressing the letter or
number that the screen asked for or press C
to re-start. If you have a special option included
you will need to read the ADVANCED SET UP pages
also. If this fault is shown when starting:
ALL
PARAMETERS
MUST BE RESETUP
It
means a memory error occurred. The CPU will
reset all parameters to their defaults. Press
any key to go to the advanced set up menu (see
ADVANCED SET UP section).
If the display reads:
CYCLE PAUSES
1 - CONT. 2- ABORT
It
means that the previous cycle is not finished.
Press 1 to continue the previous cycle.
Press
2 to abort the cycle. The [###} number shown
in the brackets is how many pieces are left
from the previous cycle.
2.
CONTINUE CUTTER SETUP:
a)
If the machine is operating in COUNTER or ONE
SHOT mode, advance the display to read:
SET
CUT LENGTH:
[###] (unit)
Key
in the length of one piece, either in inches
or in milli-meters. (see ADVANCED SETUP section
to change). Maximum length you can cut varies
depending on the mechanical gearing. After the
length is entered Press "E". For example,
to cut a 1 inch piece, the number entered should
be 001.00; for 100 inches, the number should
be 100.00. The decimal point will not change.
b)
For machines set up to work in EYE and ONE SHOT
WITH EYE mode, advance the display to read:
SET
CUT OFFSET:
[###] (unit)
The
cut offset means the roller advances the web
for an offset length, after the eye detects
the registration mark It is necessary because
the position of the mark, eye and blade cannot
be the same. The distance from the blades edge
to the eye mark is this offset. Then enter the
value and continue by pressing E.
SEARCH
OFFSET:
[###] (unit)
The
search offset value helps the machine controller
ignore any false photo-eye signals between registration
marks. Always put in a distance less than the
webs repeat and
SET
MAX LENGTH:
[###] (unit)
NOTE:
for normal operation, the Search offset should
be bigger than the Cut offset, or the motor
may not accelerate to high speed.
The maximum length means the maximum the material
will go if the eye mark is not detected by the
register eye. This can prevent the material
over run in case the eye mark or registration
eye were not set correctly. Enter the value
and continue by pressing E.
3.
FOR ALL MODES
The next display is: TOTAL PIECES:
[###] (pieces)
Key
in number of pieces, then press "E"
to enter the amount, or to cut to infinity enter
"0" and the machine WILL NOT STOP.
4.
The display then will show what you have entered:
Keep pressing "E" to scroll through
the stored data.
a)
For COUNTER mode: [#####] C [####] p
E--RUN CYCLE
c is the length : p is total pieces
b) For EYE mode: EYE-MODE [####]p
E--RUN CYCLE
c) For ONE SHOT mode: [#####] a [####J p
E--RUN CYCLE
o is length : p is total pieces
d) For ONE SHOT WITH EYE MODE:
ONE+EYE [####]p
E--UN CYCLE
5. When the machine is running the following
messages occur
1)
General message (in all modes):
ACCU: [########]
PIECE:[####]
ACCU:
is the total accumulated pieces since you reset
the (see ADVANCED SETUP section), it is not
the current cycle accumulation. PIECE is how
many pieces are left in the current cycle.
If
the bottom line display: CYCLE RUNNING
which means the cycle will go infinity pieces.
2)
Wait for one shot signal (only in ONE SHOT mode)
WAIT INDEX SIGNAL
PIECE: [####]
3) Wait for one shot signal (in all modes)
WAIT KNIFE HOME
PIECE: [####]
4) Wait for product signal (optional):
WAIT PRODUCT
PIECE: [####]
5) Cover open alarm (optional):
COVER OPENED
[####] E-RESET
6)
Knife home alarm (in all modes)
KNIFE NOT HOME
[####] E-RESET
7) No pmduct alarm (optional)
OUT OF PRODUCT
[####] E-RESET
8 ) Product jam alarm (optional)
PRODUCT JAM
[####J E-RESET
Whenever
the screens listed in 5, 6 or 7 appear, the
cycle will pause. The operator MUST fix the
problem then press "E" to continue
the cycle. (#) lists the pieces left in the
cycle.
