5.1.1 Login
1. Touch the Login Icon to enter login screen
2. Enter “0000” in Password window
3. Touch the Check Mark icon to save and exit
5.1.2 Pressure Calibration
Note: Pressure calibration must be performed when the unit is activated for
the first time.
1. Using a pressure gauge, verify that the input pressure line is delivering
approximately 100 psi
Note: If input pressure is not 100 psi, calibration will result in a
mismatch between the display pressure and the actual pressure on output
port B
2. Once you have verified input pressure, touch the Calibration icon
to enter calibration screen.

8
Please keep in mind that the exact pressure being fed must be indicated
correctly in this menu prior to calibrating the pressure. Not doing so may
cause the pressure display to show the incorrect pressure.
3. Turn pressure adjustment knob counterclockwise until the wheel can no
longer be turned.
4. Touch the 0 icon to set the pressure to 0
5. Turn pressure adjustment knob clockwise until display output pressure is
100 psi
6. Touch the 100 icon to set the pressure to 100
Warning: Do not turn knob all the way clockwise. 100 psi upper bound
should be set as soon as display output pressure goes from 99 to 100 psi.
Continuing to turn knob clockwise despite pressure on display already
being set at 100psi will result in incorrect output pressure readings if the
100 icon were to be pressed at that time
Note: The digital values shown at “0” and “100” icons are for reference
only. The actual calibrated values will be different
7. Touch the Reboot icon to save the settings and reboot the system
8. Wait until the system completes the rebooting sequence and the home
screen is displayed
The unit is now calibrated and ready to operate

5.1.3 Controlling Mode
The TS560R can be used as stand-alone controller or integrated to any
robot/automation system.
A. To use as stand-alone controller:
Go to setup screen to check for controlling mode. If the icon “C” is
showing, then it is already set as stand-alone controlling mode. If the
icon “R” is showing, press this icon to change to “C”
B. To use as integrated controller to robot/automation
Press icon “C” to change to “R”
Note: Users will experience inconsistent dispensing and intermittent
behaviors with their dispensing valves if attempting to run the TS550R
in controller mode when interfacing with the robot.

5.2 SPRAYING
5.2.1 Pressure Adjustment
Note: Pressure in Port A (I) is not regulated. It delivers the same pressure
as the supplied inlet pressure. This pressure is to activate the valve. Make
sure the supplied pressure is at least 70 psi (4.8 bar)
Pressure in Port B is regulated. This pressure is to control the atomized air
spray. Adjust the pressure accordingly to achieve desired spray results.
1. Touch the “Pressure B” icon to enter the pressure setup screen
2. Touch the Up and Down arrows to set the desired atomized pressure
3. Touch the Check Mark icon to save and exit
5.2.2 To Change Pressure Unit Display
Note: The default pressure unit is PSI. To change pressure unit to BAR,
follow below instructions.
1. Touch the Setup icon to enter setup screen
2. Press the “BAR” icon to change pressure unit to BAR
3. Touch the X icon to save and exit

11
5.2.3 Spray Time setting
Note: A complete cycle consists of Pre-Spray, Spray and Post-Spray.
Pre-spray: Atomized air turned on before the valve is opened.
Post-spray: Atomized air stayed on after the valve is closed.
1. Touch the “Pre”icon to setup pre-spray time
2. Touch Up and Down arrows to set the desired pre-spray time
3. Touch the Check Mark icon to save and exit
4. Touch the “Post”icon to setup post-spray time
5. Touch Up and Down arrows to set the desired post-spray time
6. Touch the Check Mark icon to save and exit
5.2.4 Manual/Purge Cycle Setting
1. Touch the Purge icon to select the purge cycle.
The Purge icon will turn to green color.
2. Press and hold down the foot switch to activate the purge cycle.

12

purge cycle.
5.2.5 Automatic Spray Cycle Setting
1. Touch the “Timed” mode icon to set the spray cycle time.
The icon will turn to green color.
2. Touch the “Spray”icon to enter the setup screen
3. Touch the Up and Down arrows to set the desired spray time
Note: The minimum activation is 0.008 second
4. Press the Check Mark icon to save and exit
5. Press the foot switch to activate the “Timed” spray cycle.
Alternately, touch the Run icon on the display to activate the “Timed”
spray cycle
Note: The unit has an “Interrupt” mode feature. In this mode, the
“Timed” spray cycle can be disrupted if the foot switch is released and
resumed when the foot switch is depressed again.
6. Touch the “Interrupt” icon to activate “Interrupt” mode. The icon will
turn to green color
5.2.6 Teach Mode Setting
In the teach mode, the spray time will be accumulated as long as the foot
switch is depressed. This is helpful in determining the required spray
time when the dispense output is known.
1. Touch the “Teach” icon to enter the teach mode

13
2. Touch the “Time Reset” icon to set timer to zero
3. Press and hold down the foot switch, the spray time will be accumulated
4. Release the foot switch when the desired amount of fluid has sprayed
5. Touch the “Timed” icon to transfer the accumulated spray time to “Timed”
mode
6. The unit is now set to repeat this “Timed” cycle
5.3 Stored Program in Memory Cell
The unit has 50 memory cells to store all parameters. The controller can activate
all memory cells in sequence mode.
