Control Mode Parameter
The Control Mode (CP-14) parameter allows you to choose between either the
Standard (1) or Lay Adjusted (3) option in the Follower mode of operation. Both options
will operate your system. The calculation of the Follower profile length is the only
difference between the Standard and the Lay Adjusted option. In the lay adjusted
option, one lay pitch is subtracted from the profile length to adjust for the initial lay on
the reel.
NOTE: You can also use Control Mode (CP-14) to choose the Direct mode of opera-
tion, which is used for calibration and trouble shooting. Refer to Operation:
Direct Mode for information on the Direct mode.
The factory default for the Control Mode Control Parameter is found in Table 3-2. To
modify the default parameter refer to Table 3-3. If you are uncertain how to enter a
Control Parameter, review the
Operations: Keypad section.
