Adjusting Label Sensitivity
Overview:
The CS2000 will automatically adjust its label sensitivity, to the optimal setting, by
simply depressing a push-button. This adjustment process is referred to as "Easy Setup." It is
recommended that the operator adjust the label sensitivity for each new roll of labels due to
differences in label rolls.
Easy Setup:
To adjust label sensitivity for each new roll of labels follow steps 1-4.
1. Peel off a label and position the web (label backing) under the sensing area.
2. Depress the push-button until the yellow LED comes on (1 sec.), then release.
3. The yellow LED will begin flashing.
4. Move a label under the sensing area and the green LED will come on.
The sensor is now adjusted and should function correctly.
*Note: If in the Adjusting Label Sensitivity mode by mistake, the push-button may be
depressed to exit with no changes made.
Possible Problems:
Red LED flashes after the
push-button is released.
The sensor cannot adjust
to the label backing.
Probable cause is a build
up of paper dust or some
other obstruction is under
the sensing area.
Blow out any paper dust
present and remove any
obstructions, labels, or
label residue from sensing
area (refer to page 15).
Symptom Problem Solution
Yellow LED continues flashing
even after a label is placed
under the sensing area.
There is not enough
contrast between the label
and the label backing.
Try the Low Contrast
Setting. See Program
Mode (page 12) for more
information.
