I. How to Set Powder Dusng Parameter
1. Principle of Powder Dusng Parameter:
i. In the seng page. There is feed sensor para.
ii. Value – Current height value of the powder box posion.
iii. Up: height value when powder box doesn’t have enough powder. It will
acvate the powder dusng funcon to work.
iv. Down: low value when powder box is in low posion which means there
is enough powder. It will stop the dusng funcon.
II. How to Set Powder Dusng Parameters and Check Working Properly
1. Li the powder box up and hold the set buon of the UP parameter for 3 secs.
i. It will record the posion of the empty box.
2. Push the powder box to the boom, then li a lile bit from the boom and hold
set buon of down parameter. Value for low posion is recorded for the low
posion which means there is enough powder in the box.
3. To test dusng funcon: Li and push down the powder box to check if dusng
funcon is working properly.
