PROGRAMMING THE PRINTER
77144 Issue 8 August 2009 87
Extra Port
Normally enabled. If disabled removes the port number option from external
variable setup and fixes this to 3001. Only needed for backward compatibility.
Retrieve Mode
This is normally disabled. When enabled changes the functionality of the print
which message icon. See Connect Manual for more details.
Sensor
A sensor can be fitted to the production line to give a print-go signal when a
product passes in front of the sensor.
The recommended method for using a sensor to detect products with the Multi-
head Base is a single sensor plugged into the base unit. The signal is then sent to
all the control units attached. Alternatively, a sensor can be plugged into each of
the control units.
CAUTION: For Multi-head Base - do not plug a sensor into both the base and
the control unit(s) otherwise it will cause the units to print incorrectly.
Notes: (1) For the Multi-head Base, this must be set to Enabled (for external).
(2) It is not necessary to select the photocell option for the C6000 range of control
units.
Auto Prime
It is possible to set the printer to automatically prime the print head after a set
number of prints. The printer will expel a small amount of ink from the nozzle
plate after the prints.
See page 52 for further details of the Auto Prime function.
