Adjusting Photocell of labeler.

Older units have Omron E3S-GS3B4, yellow color.

Photocell adjustment is SPECIFIC to label. We set up each labeler with our labels and test them before shipping. It is best if you send a roll of labels prior to shipping and we will set the labeler up and adjust the photocell for your label.

The technique that will always work is the following:
· Put labels on machine
· Turn photocell adjustment screw to ~ 3 o'clock position.
· Turn the labeller on
· Turn the photocell adjustment screw counterclockwise until the machine stops when a label is passed in front of it.

[There is no perfect rule for adjusting the photocell based on the photocell red/green lights. This is due to a number of factors including reflection, opacity of the labels and label paper, color/design of the label. The reason that the red/green lights may not be a reliable indicator is that turning on or off of the red/green lights takes longer than the operational time of the photocell (2 msec). In other words, the photocell will switch faster than the lights can turn on.]
