TD2100 PREMIUM Keypad
- The Premium keypad offers all the same function as the
STANDARD keypad plus it is possible for you to dispense any length of tape from 5”
to 99” in 1” increments. The exception from the STANDARD keypad is there are 10
preset lengths versus 20. There are two versions of the PREMIUM keypad, Short and
Long. The Long version has longer pre-programmed lengths than the Short.
To dispense a length of tape 5” to 99” press the NUM LOCK key. The NUM LOCK
light is lit and the 0-9 keys are activated. Just press any two keys to get the desired
length. For example, press 07 for 7” piece of tape or 77 for a 77” piece of tape. These
“custom” lengths can be programmed in the REPEAT SHORT or REPEAT LONG
keys by turning on the NUM LOCK, press PROGRAM, press two keys of desired
length and then desired REPEAT key to store value. You must turn off the NUM
LOCK mode to verify the length is stored and displayed.
