Note: buttons on the operation box are effecti ve only under main page.
2. Adjustment page
Press [adjustment] to enter the page as following

Detailed instruction

1) Hole Noto indicate following number represents which hole. 0 represents initial point.
2) n-axis represents data for each axis.
Note: data of initial point is against the distance to zero point, so the position value is displayed as 0 at
initial point; while the data of other points are against initial point. All the hole positions will shift due to
initial point data modification. Modification on the data of other points will only affect the modified hole
while others will not be affected.
3) Color able to program output points
4) Output: seven programmable output points

bPress [F5], the machine will return to 0 position; return to zero finished is showed in the page.


cPress [F4] (product) to enter product page as following;
13


dpress [F1] create a new product and input the name of product; press [confirm] and return to
main page automatically if it dont appear wrong.

cPress [adjustment] key to enter adjustment page;


14

dpress [F1]key continuously and add data, until need the hole number, if the total hole member is 40, it
should add to the hole number 40 and showing 41 on the scream , because it is including 0 hole , as following
picture

ePress [F6] key ,the next can change, then press [F4]key enter editing mode, as following picture

fPress [X+] until moving to the first hole position, as following picture

gUsing 0-9 +/- and radix point key , according to measured XY axis data input, the data of Z axis
should be input according to factual measured data , after finishing the input , press [F6] key returned to
adjustment page, then press [page] returned to main page
hData is auto saved , it dont need do other operation , there isnt used the data of 0 point
15

2 Translate and Modification
aOn the main page, Press [F6] , the machine return to initial point first, then move to hole 1 position,
In fact the current position is different from real hole position
bPress [adjustment] key to enter adjustment page, as following

cPress [X+][X-][Y+][Y-] key, make the machine aiming at the first hole position, press [F6] choice next
column, and press [F3] key choice translate function, input hole number as following picture(the hole number
should be the last hole numberr, also, total hole quantity minus 1 )

dpress [confirm] and finished the data modification, all the data equal change
16


ePress [page]key, retured to main page, press [F6] retured to the 1 hole position , it can starting to process
fIf position still have warp, please press[F6] and return to the first point position again, and it is translate
from the second step again
Note:
1) starting to process, if it dont press [F6] and return to the 1 hole position, it cant enter adjustment page.

Parameters instruction

1Parameters for each axis
Parameters meaning for 4 axis are the same.
a) Pulse for each turn: refers to how much pulse need by motor to rotate one turn.
Abouting your company, XYA axis should be set as 1000, Z axis can be 100
b) The screw pitch of screw mandrel: refers to the screw pitch of screw mandrel used
on X, Y table. ZA axis doesnt have specific meaning.
Note: above mentioned
two parameters were set, please dont modify , or else, the initialal product data cant
be used
c) Starting speed:
it can be set as 10-15 times screw pitch, because of adopting servo,i.e. 100-150
The bigger the value is, the quicker the processing product in per minute. but it is
easy to cause more shake for motor if the value is too high. It should choose
appropriate value
d) Actuating speed: it can be set as 20-25 times screw pitch, because of adopting
servo i.e. 200-250
e) Accelerated speed: normally it is better to set it at 50

f) Leapfrogging distance:not being used, it can be set as 1000
g) Speed of returning to zero: the speed of returning to zero point can be set as 20
h) Adjustment on quick speed: refers to manual speed of switching from adjustment
status to be quick and can be set as 20
i) Adjustment on slow speed: refers to manual speed of switching from adjustment
status to be slow and can be set as 5
2. System parameters
a Off time for backlight: to prolong the lifecycle of the LCD, set the time duration for
shutting off the backlight if there is no actions on keys. To set it as 0 means let it on all the
time.

b maxmal value of X axis , the minimal value of X axis, The maxmal value of Y axis , the minimal
value of Y axis, The maxmal value of Z axis , the minimal value of Z axis can be used to setting
limitation

8. After confirming parameter is right ,press [adjustment] key enter adjustment page
9. Press [X-] key ,if the X axis run turnnig to initial, Press [X+] key , wherth the X axis run
contrary , if it is contrary,please modify parameter and make it right, if it run one direction ,please
check the outer connection and the paremeter set of servo
10. YZ axis are same as above mentioned ,press [Y-][Z-] run turnnig to initial ,press [Y+][Z+] run
contrary
11. Press [A+][A-] key , A axis will move in positive and negative
12. Above mentioned operation is normal , press [page] key return to main page, then Press [F5], the
machine will return to 0 position,then return back a litter and continued return to 0 position,if it
is normal, return to zero finished is showed on the information columns, if it isn t finished ,
please checking wherth parameters are set correctly, if the motion direction of servo-actuator
motor is right, wherth initial point switch can detect out that.
13. Return to zero point is normal , press [adjustment] to enter the page, press[X+]key , until close to
anode position, write down the current position of Xaxis, the value is used to setting the maximal
value of X axis
14. Then press [X-]key , until close to cathode position, and write down the current position of Xaxis, the
value is used to setting the minimum value of X axis
15. Same as above mentioned method , the maximal and minimum value of YZ can be set
