Automatic Edge Sensor Standardization

When processing transparent materials, this standardization mode is used for the calibration of optical edge sensors (IR 2011, IR 2012).

During automatic edge sensor standardization, the edge sensors will be adjusted to the optical properties of the material to be scanned. For the calibration, the device determines the bright value (no material in the sensor measuring range) and the dark value (material in the sensor measuring range).

If the Automatic edge sensor standardization function is activated, after switching to the Automatic operating mode, the sensor slides automatically run towards the web edge until the sensor measuring range is completely covered. The dark value is saved. Then the sensor slides run back until the web edge is located in the middle of the sensor measuring range.

For activating the Automatic edge sensor standardization function see installation and commissioning manual , Document number .
