4 “POWER SAVE” FUNCTION (MACHINE STAND-BY)

If the machine doesn’t run for a period of 15 minutes (the machine doesn’t make packing and nobody touch the operator panel) it switch to the
“power save” mode. In this condition, the output relay “emergency” (so, the contactor K1 disconnects) and the touch-panel switch to stand by
mode too (dark screen). To exit from this condition, it is just necessary to touch any part of the screen or the RESET push button.

5 “POWER SAVE” FUNCTION (MACHINE SHUTDOWN)

If other 45 minutes run after the “POWER SAVE” mode without nobody plays with the machine, it TURN OFF automatically and the white lamp
of the ON/OFF push button will switch off too. To re-start the machine, it is just necessary to press the ON/OFF push button.
This function grant a longer life and better performance of the battery.

8. HOW TO USE THE ACCESS PASSWORD OF THE OPERATOR TOUCH-PANEL

To apply the password by operator panel to access the required section, follow the next procedure:
By Main page (the one that appear
on machine start-up), press the
icon “INSTRUMENTS ”.
By applications page, press icon
“ACCOUNT ”.
Procedure to reset the “USER ACCOUNT” password to default.
If you forget the first level password (operator USER ACCOUNT), it is
possible to RESET it to the default (1111) like producer setting.
Turn the machine ON in the RESET page, and within 5 seconds, press in
couter-clockwise sequence the four corners of the touch panel starting from
top left corner (see below sketch). As soon the operation will be complete, the
operator panel will give an acoustic signal and will display for few seconds a
key that will show the default password (1111) as shown in below sketch.

PRODUCT DETECTION PHOTOCELL SETTINGS

(standard version and dark product version)
STANDARD PHOTOCELL
Adjust the trimmer of the photocell sensitivity (distance detection) to the centre of the product to pack
DARK PRODUCTS PHOTOCELL

Set the selector “operation mode” to “L”

(turn the selector clock-wise direction till the end).

Description Distance selector

Turn completely the selector counter clock-wise direction in case of minimum distance (about 0.2mm).

Locate the object to detect from the photocell (pallet centre) and turn the selector clock-wise direction till “A” to set the
photocell in “light” condition (output active)

Remove the a.m. object. Turn the selector in clock-wise direction till switch again the photocell to “light” condition. When
it become on, turn again the selector to switch to “dark” to “B” (if absence of the object to detect the photocell do not
switch to “light” condition ON, the “B” point must be considered like maximum point of the setting range).

Set the selector to half range (middle between point “A” and point “B” that should be the best point to detect the

The measured value must be 15 Volt ±0,5 Volt.
Setting the film stretch setting icon to maximum value, turn ON the machine and measure the voltage to the connections
