1.1.3 CONTROLS DESCRIPTION
A Programmed cycle START button.
B Carriage up manual retention button.
If pressed together with (E)
, the presser automatically rises to
the up cycle start position.
CDecrease values button.
DIncrease values button.
EAlarm reset (fast pressure – less than 2 second);
Saving parameters (press until the LED flashes - more than 3
seconds);
When pressed along with the STOP
button, it stops and resets
the cycle (the display (V) shows INI to show the cancellation).
F
2-digit display indicating the functions (parameters) of the
selected programme;
During the cycle it shows the current operating status;
CF on the display (V)
at the end of the cycle means the film is
depleted;
AA on the display (V) means there is an alarm on the machine.
G
Carriage down manual retention button (if pressed together
with (E)
, the carriage automatically descends to the low cycle
start position).
H
Rotating arm manual, hold down to stop the rotating arm in
phase (if pressed together with “E” the table automatically turns
to the phase position).
O STOP
cycle pause button, the rotating arm decelerates and
stops, the cycle can be resumed from the same point.
P 2-digit display showing the selected programme;
During the cycle it shows an animation of the rotation of the
platform;
NOTE
: the flashing display indicates that a parameter has been
changed).
V 3-digit display indicating the value of the displayed function;
During the cycle or manually moving the film carriage, it indicates
the current height;
The central and left points are decimal points for the values.
When the right point is lit, the V+ and V-
keys are blocked and
the parameter values cannot be changed.

Loading of parameters: takes place automatically by selecting the
desired programme.
Saving of parameters: if the LED of the RESET key (E)
is turned off,
press the RESET
key for more than 4 seconds. This LED will start to
flash rapidly to indicate that the parameters have been saved.
The program P=00 is read-only and it is configured with default values.
Up to 99 programmes can be created (
based on the machine
model):
To copy the parameters of an existing program on a virgin
program, select the program source, press and hold RESET
and act
on P+ and P- buttons to select the target program. Release the
RESET
button within 4 seconds the parameters will be copied only, if held
down for more than 4 seconds and then released, will be copied and
saved.
NB: The virgin target programme must always be released (F00
=1) (LED
of the RESET key (E) is turned off).
Automatic opening of the program used previously.
When the machine is turned on again, the parameters from the last
programme selected and started will be loaded.
Keyboard block/ release:
prevents modification of parameters by
blocking the keys V+ e V-; hold down at the same time F+ and F-
and
then press RESET
to enable / disable the block. When the active function
the right LED of the display (V) lights up and stays lit.
The disabled/enabled status remains even after the machine has been
turned off and on again.
FIGURA
1) indicates the decimal point (values from 0.00 to 9.99)
2) indicates the decimal point (values from 0.0 to 9.9)
3) indicates the block status of keyboard
ON: keyboard blocked (V+ and V- blocked)
OFF: keyboard released (V+ e V- sbloccati)
Signals
The LED of the RESET key (E) indicates the writing protection status of
the selected programme. If turned on, it is not possible to rewrite the
modified parameters. It is necessary to select the parameter F00 on
the same programme to carry out modifications and set the value 1
in the parameter, and then hold down RESET for at least 3 seconds. If
the programme is to be saved and at the same time blocked in writing,
after saving it, set 1 in parameter F00 (padlock open) and then 0 again
(padlock closed) and then hold down RESET for at least 3 seconds. The
LED will blink fast only pressing the RESET for more than 3 seconds,
indicating the machine is ready to store the parameters; by depressing
the RESET button, the parameters will be stored. The LED wil blink slow
only to report the alarm status
The LED next to the FOOTBOARD MANUAL button indicates the
automatic command of footboard rotation.
The LED next to the MANUAL CARRIAGE RISE indicates the automatic
command of the carriage rise.
The LED next to the MANUAL CARRIAGE DESCENT indicates the
automatic command of the carriage descent.
Indication of the film consumed
At the end of each cycle (or by selecting the parameter CF on the display
(F)), the machine will indicate the consumption of the film in grams
on the display (V) and showing CF on the display (F). To obtain good
precision, correctly set the thickness of the film in the parameter F24.
NOTE: It is also possible to order models with film consumption
expressed in metres. In this case as well, to obtain good precision,
correctly set the diameter of the measurement roller in the parameter
F24.
Turntable end carriage in-phase stop
Through the combination of multiple buttons you can stop in-phase
the machines.
Pressing the button (H) and, keeping it pressed, press the button (E),
the turntable rotates until it reaches a predetermined position (called
stop in-phase) and then stops.
Pressing the button (G), and keeping it pressed, press the button (E),
the carriage falls to the low position and then stops.
Press the button (B) and, holding it down, press the button (E). The
presser automatically ascends to the start cycle top position.
