Saving and Loading the Guiding Setpoint
The memory of the controller allows you to save four different parameter sets for the guiding setpoint, and to re-load them when required. In this way, you reduce the setup time for repeat orders.
In each of the four parameter sets, the controller saves the guiding setpoint for the following guiding modes:
- Web edge guiding with sensor 1
- Web edge guiding with sensor 2
- Web center-line guiding with sensor 1 and sensor 2
- Line / contrast / feature guiding with sensor 3
The number of the current parameter set loaded is shown in the small sensor symbol at the bottom edge of the display.

① | Number of the parameter set loaded |
Rotate the smartphone by 90 degrees to show the entire table.
