The unit should already be configuredproperly on the.OT-120. If not, refer tothe parameters in Appendix A.



A Valco Technician should change the CDS lamp, as it requires a critical calibrationprocedure to insure that it is optimized for reading the full color spectrum.

White ValueCalibration Procedure

The White Value Adjustment feature is only needed when the system is started at thetime of installation, or after changing the halogen lamp in the CDS sensor. Thepurpose for the procedure is to establish a base point by which the system determinesthe true value of white.

To establish the White Value, you must first make certain the CDS sensor is veryclean. Next, adjust the pre-folder properly so that the cartons are flowing throughwith no interference or skewing. Be sure that the glue flap runs through the pre-folderand is standing at a 90-degree angle to the gluer belt surface. You must select cartonsthat contain a background of pure white. The use of any color other than white willconfuse the system.

Proceed by following the online instructions for running (4) boxes past the sensor.Upon successful completion, a message should appear indicating so.

There should be no need to sample the White Value again unless the lamp qualitydeteriorates to the point where normal sampling is difficult to achieve.

The reading range selected mustinclude approximately 5-6 mm of whiteclear space before the leading edge ofthe code picture.

Changing theHalogen Lamp

Establishing aBaseline for the CDS

Sensor

For each sensor, it is necessary to run a sample product so the system can “read” asample code and establish the code as the baseline to which all jobs will be com-pared. Code can be any combination of narrow or wide bars. It can also be followedby 1-4 triangles.

To establish a baseline code for the CDS sensor, follow these steps:

1. Clean the CDS sensor, including the sensor lamp and thephotocell.

2. With the sensor lamp turned off, jog a blank into the pre-folder.You will see two red dots.

3. Align the code picture between the two red dots. (The dots donothing but give you a target. They have nothing to do with theactual code reading.)

4. Ensure that the box runs freely through the pre-folder withoutdragging or hanging up.



The glue flap should be presented to theCDS camera at a right angle and should runconsistently. It is critical that the box runsfreely. Otherwise, the speed changes orangle changes will cause errors in sampleor production reading.

5. Turn the sensor lamp ON and switch the MCU control to the runmode.

6. Press the the icon for the CDS color-code-reader camera. This givesyou a large picture of the glue flap and as boxes pass you see adisplay of the code. The picture should be “clean”, with pixelsbetween the bars.

After cartons have been run, a messagestates that the operation was successfuland recommends that you now sample forthe code.

7. Ensure that the folding section is empty and that the ejector is turnedon.

8. Using one blank, sample the code reader.

It is important to sample with a carton thathas been checked for good quality becauseall of the remaining cartons will becompared to the master carton. The ejectorwill eject the sampled carton.

9. Mark the sampled carton as your master carton and save it.

Once a sample has been made with thefolding section empty and the ejector turnedon, the sensor will learn the distance tophotocell 1.

Establishing a Baseline for theCDS Sensor - Continued



Code-Reading Hints• When you change pallets (loads), send a few of the new cartons through

the gluer while running the previous load. This will give you an indicationof how well the new load will run.

• You may have to resample the code picture even though it is the samecode and product. Ensure that the new sample is of good quality, and keepthe new sample for your records.•When you change jobs, you may have tore-define the reading area. The unit does not automatically know whereyou want it to look for the code. Measure and input the dimensions for thereading area.

• If you have difficulties with the OT-120 touchscreen, such as the displaylocking up on the Code Reader, turn the sensor off and on again. If thisdoes not correct the problem, reboot the system. This eliminates thebanner-type messages that appear.

• Removing cartons from the folding section will result in an error message.Run the gluer empty for a minute or so to reset the system.

• If you have to widen tolerances beyond what is really practical, it prob-ably means that the carton is not running through the pre-folder very well.Ensure that the carton flows freely through the pre-folder before sampling.



EncoderInstallation

MechanicalInstallation of

Encoder

An encoder must be installed in order for the control to determine the speedof the parent machine. For best results, 100 pulses per inch (25.4 mm) ofproduct travel should be supplied to the VC3500. If less than 100 pulses perinch (25.4 mm) are supplied, poor resolution may result in pattern placementerrors. If more than 100 pulses per inch (25.4 mm) are supplied, themaximum specified speed of 2000 feet/min (610 m/min) must be reduced.

There are two primary types of encoders:

• Wheel-driven encoder• Gear-driven encoder

Wheel-Driven EncoderIf using a wheel-driven encoder (Figure 5-6), a VDD-1000 encoder with a 10-inch measuring wheel is recommended.

To install a wheel-driven encoder, follow these steps:

1. Mount the encoder’s bracket to the frame of the parent machine.

2. Ensure that the wheel of the encoder rides securely against thebelt and does not slip.

3. In the level-4 menu screen, set ratio compensation to 100 pulses.

Figure 4-9. Example of a Wheel-Driven Encoder

Gear-Driven EncoderThe following formula can be used to determine the correct combination ofgear teeth and encoder for approximately 100 pulse per inch (25.4 mm):

Teeth-S x Counts = Pulses per inch (25.4 mm) of travelTeeth-E Travel

Teeth-S = Number of teeth on the line-shaft driver gearTeeth-E = Number of teeth on the encoder driven gearCounts = Number of encoder pulses per revolutionTravel = Product travel in inches (or millimeters divided by 25.4)

per revolution of the drive shaft

For Encoder connections, refer toSection 3 - Basic Features.



Example:Example:Example:Example:Example:

Using a 92-tooth split line shaft gear (driver), a 24-tooth encoder driven gear,a 500-pulse encoder, and 18 inches (or 457 millimeters divided by 25.4) oftravel per drive shaft revolution.

92 x 500 = 106.4824 18

Therefore, the ratio compensation setting should be 106.5.

To install a gear-driven encoder (Figure 4-10), follow these steps:

1. Install the driver gear on the line shaft. Tighten the set-screws.

2. Position and install the encoder so that it is square with the drivergear.

3. Raise or lower the encoder to tighten the belt against the drivergear. (Ensure that the two sides of the belt are not pressedtogether under the wheel.) Due to the low torque required, thebelt should not be extremely tight.

At least 7-9 teeth should engage in theline shaft driver gear. It may benecessary to fabricate an adjustablebracket to connect the encoder base tothe parent machine frame.

Two things to consider for OT and TCM:

When the “Wizard” mode is used there will be a setting in the ini file with 3possibilities:

1 – Ejector on (3002.0 = 1), Setup Mode (3400.5F = 0)

Only bad products will be ejected.

Counters will count good and bad.

2 – Ejector off (3002.0 = 0), Setup Mode (3400.5F = 0 or 1)

No products will be ejected.

Counters will count good and bad.

3 – Ejector on (3002.0 = 1), Setup Mode (3400.5F = 1)

All bad products will be ejected.

Counters will count only bad. (all boxes bad)

When the Wizard is started the OT will set 3002.0 and 3400.5F in the TCMaccording to the ini file.

When the Wizard is complete these settings will return to their previous state.

Also the OT should detect if there are no Inspection channels enabled but theEjector is enabled, if this true the OT will set 3400.5F = 1 on the TCM. This willforce all products to be ejected and counted as bad products. When theEjector is then turned off or if an Inspection channel is turned on the OT will set3400.5F = 0 on the TCM back for normal operation.

This is to prevent an operator from inadvertently turning off inspection whilethe Ejector is active.

APPENDIX B - DIAGNOSTICSAPPENDIX B - DIAGNOSTICSAPPENDIX B - DIAGNOSTICSAPPENDIX B - DIAGNOSTICSAPPENDIX B - DIAGNOSTICS

The parent machine must be operating in order to verify the operation of theencoder. (It is not necessary to be gluing the product.) All gun-selectorswitches must be turned off.

Encoder diagnostics should be doneonly after internal diagnostics haveproven that the control’s main board isoperating properly.

To verify operation of the encoder, follow these steps:

1. Ensure that the “ENC” LEDs on the control’s main board or frontpanel are illuminated.

2. If these LEDs are not illuminated, complete either step 3 or step4:

3. On a shaft-mounted encoder assembly, check for the following:

Worn timing belt or gears*Incorrect belt tension*Damaged encoder cableLoose cable connections

* These items may cause diagnosticLEDs to falsely indicate proper encoderoperation.

4. On a wheel-mounted encoder assembly, check for the following:

Worn rubber on the wheel*Incorrect tension between the wheel and the drivebelt*Damaged encoder cableLoose cable connections

* These items may cause diagnosticLEDs to falsely indicate proper encoderoperation.

5. Replace the encoder if the diagnostics listed above do not solvethe problem.

Appendix B - Diagnostics MC083 - VCX Control Service Manual

The parent machine does not have to be operating in order to verify theoperation of the scanner.

Scanner diagnostics should be doneonly after internal diagnostics haveproven that the control’s main board isoperating properly.

To verify operation of the scanner, follow these steps:

1. Ensure that the red LED on the body of the scanner illuminateswhen product is detected.

The “SCAN” light LED on the mainboard should also illuminate.

The “SCAN” light goes out on a VC-350, V-401, and V-451 main board.

2. If the LED on the scanner body does not illuminate, adjust thesensitivity of the scanner:

2a. Verify the distance from scanner to product is 1-2"(maximum distance can be 4" with increased error).

2b. Adjust the scanner gain screw so that product issensed 1" past the normal product location.

3. If the sensitivity adjustment fails to correct the problem, or if theLED on the scanner body is illuminated but the SCAN light LEDis not, ensure that the scanner cable is not damaged and thatthere are no loose scanner cable connections.

The scanner will not operate properly ifthe bracket is loose on the machine.This causes vibrations as the producttravels.

4. Replace the scanner if the diagnostics listed above do not solvethe problem.
