1.

 

Place the web/strip in the proper position and then position the sensor(s) to align the 
center of the sensor(s) bandwidth with the edge of the web/strip to be guided. 

6.

 

Verify the system is in Manual Mode by pressing the MANUAL button on the Control 
Panel. 

7.

 

Perform “Auto Setup” to automatically determine the proper polarity and gain for the 
system. If two sensors are being used, the “Auto Setup” must be performed 
independently, in each sensor mode. Refer to “Control Panel Level 1 Setup Screen” on the 
following page for the location of the buttons. 

1)

 

Select the desired sensor mode by pressing the SENSOR SELECTION button. 

2)

 

Press the SETUP button to enter the Setup menus. 

3)

 

Press the AUTOSETUP icon to enter the AUTOSETUP menu. 

4)

 

Position the web edge near the center of the sensor proportional band as 
indicated in Figure 5. 

5)

 

Press the AUTOSETUP button to start. The actuator will move a short distance and 
indicate the result as shown in Figure 6. 

8.

 

Press the ACCEPT button to save the setting. 

9.

 

Press the BACK or HOME button to return to the Operator Level Screen. 

10.

 

Repeat this procedure for each sensor mode that will be used. 

11.

 

Switch the system to Automatic Mode by pressing the AUTO button. This initiates the 
guiding function of the system. 

 

Once this procedure has been performed once for each sensor mode, it does not need to 
be repeated.
