LOKPRINT™ II Assembly
Installation Setup Procedure
1) Assemble the system components and connect all the interface cables between
the three components.
2) Check / set the Printer TCB DIP switches for a 676 with stacker jam disabled (1,
3, and 4 ON / all others OFF).
3) Power on the Printer, Lokprint II, and Finishing Station for warm up.
4) While the Lokprint II Ready light is still off close the Lokprint II and Finishing
Station guards, raise the Finishing Station stacker platform, and check / enter the
value for Calibrate Sensor “Stacker Not Blocked” on the 676. This value should
be somewhere around “40”. Once the ready light comes on check / enter the
value for “Stacker Blocked”. This value should be somewhere around “225”.
5) Load fabric and ink on the Printer, advance the fabric though the Lokprint II.
6) Once all interlocks are satisfied press the start button on the printer to clear any
remaining errors, the front panel should now read “Ready For Batches / Lokprint
II”.
7) Download data to the Printer, this format should include a printed sense mark for
the Finishing Station to register.
8) Press start again and allow the system to run until there are sufficient printed
labels to thread and register in the Finishing Station.
9) Thread the Finishing Station and align the sensor / sense mark for registration.
The sense mark must be the first thing the sensor sees when you start the
Finishing Station.
10) Set the Finishing Station settings on its front panel as needed for the format and
start the Finishing Station in order to remove the slack between the Lokprint II
and the Finishing Station. The Speed adjustment should be set to provide
constant tension on the fabric between the Lokprint II and the Finishing Station
with the least Finishing Station stopping and starting.
11) Start the system, while running take note of the Lokprint II oven position in
relation to the oven insulation strip secured to the Plexiglas guard. The oven
should fully engage the strip squarely from one end of the oven to the other. The
oven position is controlled by a C sensor sensing a metal flag bolted to the back
of the outer oven. Check / adjust the sensor position as needed to cause the oven
to travel to the desired position. The guard insulator strip can be adjusted up or
down as needed by loosening it’s mounting hardware and relocating it
accordingly.
The Lokprint II back cover will need to be removed to make the sensor
adjustment. Do not attempt to run the system with the cover removed, as the
process will over heat for lack of controlled airflow around the oven.
12) Check / adjust both guard switch bales as needed to cause both switches to
trigger only when the guard is closed.
