LM-4005: Dynamic Label Applicator
Q: Why is my applicator feeding multiple labels?
A: The web sensor is probably out of adjustment. (Refer to manual for adjustment procedures)
Q: My applicator will not do anything at all. What’s going on?
A: Check to make sure the controller has not been disabled.
A: Disconnect the product trigger (photocell) from controller and press START button. If applicator functions correctly, photocell may need to be replaced or adjusted.
Q: What does it mean if my Label Mill is displaying “Memory Checksum” on the controller display?
A: Data has been lost in the serial EPROM. Contact your Label Mill service provider.
Q: My Label Mill controller is displaying “Label Not Found” after I run the Auto Set Up. What should I do?
A: Check for proper webbing of label stock.
A: Check and clean label sensor if necessary.
A: Label Stock must have a minimum of 1/8” gap between labels (industry standard) in order for the applicator to work correctly.
Q: The controller says “Gap Not Detected”, what’s wrong?
A: If there are too many labels missing on the web, the controller thinks that it cannot see a gap between labels.
A: Make sure that the applicator is properly webbed. (Running through the gap sensor)
A: Web sensor might not be set correctly for label material. Run the “Auto Gap Set”. (See manual if necessary)
Q: My controller displays “Head Up Fault”. How do I fix it?
A: Check to make sure that the air is turned on and the tamp head is in the home position. With controller turned on check that the Head-Up limit switch (located at the top of the air cylinder) is displaying a red light. If red light is not on, loosen bracket on limit switch and move to the up most position where light comes on, secure sensor and try to cycle again.
Q: My controller is displaying “Head Down Fault”. What should I do?
A: If tamp duration is too short the Head Up switch located at the top of the air cylinder will not change state causing a “Head Down Fault”. (Set duration longer)
A: Depress test button on the Tamp Valve to make sure air cylinder is functioning correctly.
A: Check the programmed state of the Head-Up switch. (See manual)
