1. Set the cutting length to 100.0mm.
- This is the temporary value for comparing the
set value with the actual cut length.
2. Cut some sheets.
- Do not align the sheets on the side guide. Align the
sheets only on the backgauge properly, and cut.
3. Measure the dimension of cut sheets.
- Measure the dimension of the sheets by one
decimal place. 100.6mm is given for an ex-
ample here.
4. Obtain the correction value.
- Correction value is a half of the difference
between the set value and the actual cut length.
- The actual cut length is 100.6mm. Therefore,
the correction value is 0.3mm.
5. Enter a new home position. (Fig.2)
- Show the Backgauge Calibration screen.
(Fig.1, Fig2)
- Add or subtract the correction value which was
calculated in step 4 to or from the current home
position value, and enter the new home position
value. (When the actual cut length is larger than
the set value, substract the correction value.)
-
In the case of the example, enter the value which
is subtracted by 0.3 and press the button.
The backgauge will move to the new home
position.

6. Check.
- Follow the steps 1 through 3 and check that the
set value matches the actual cut length.
7. Rewrite the home position sheet.
- The home position sheet is attached to the
bottom of the control panel box shown in Fig.3.
Rewrite the new home position on it.

1-7 Checking Motor Home Position Distance
Explanation of "Home Positioning"
1. At first, the backgauge moves backward and
B21 home position sensor (Fig.2) detects the
sensor plate and turns on.
2. When B21 turns on, the servo motor M20
rotates in the reverse direction and moves the
backgauge forward, and B21 turns off.
3. The motor stops at the position where Z-phase
from the encoder is detected for the first time
in one rotation of M20. This position is the
home position.
- The encoder is housed in M20.
Explanation of "Motor Home Position
Distance"
- The motor home position distance is the
distance between the position which the B21
home position sensor turns off from on and
the position where the Z-phase from the
encoder is detected for the first time in one
rotation of M20. (steps 2 and 3 above).
- One rotation of M20 servo motor is set to 250
in APC-61II. The position of the home posi-
tion sensor B21 is set so that Z-phase will be
detected at the middle of the motor rotation.
Therefore, the motor home position distance
should be around 125. (Fig.1)

Checking the Motor Home Position
Distance
- The Z-phase cannot be detected correctly
around the area that the B21 home position
sensor turned off from on, and the boundary
line of the first and second rotation of M20.
If the Z-phase appears at these areas, the
encoder may misread it, and
detects the Z-
phase which appears next. This will set the
home position to the wrong position.
Therefore, checking the home position dis-
tance is necessary to make sure the encoder
reads Z-phase correctly in the stable area.
