Moving the plate stage to a teachpoint<br />

Introduction<br />

This topic explains how to move the plate stage to any of the three<br />

teachpoints to check its angle.<br />

Reason to do this<br />

You may need to do this when setting the robot pickup angle.<br />

Procedure<br />

To move the plate stage to a teachpoint:<br />

1. In the Device Selection group box of the Print Job page of<br />

PlateTag, make sure that an Ethernet-based profile is selected if you<br />

are connecting using Ethernet or a serial-based profile is selected if<br />

you are connecting using serial.<br />

2. In PlateTag, select View > Diagnostics.<br />

The plate stage moves and the VCode Diagnostics dialog box opens<br />

after a few seconds.<br />

3. If the applicator head is pointing towards the plate stage:<br />

a. Click the I/O functions tab.<br />

b. Click Rotate to printer.<br />

The head rotates towards the printer, moving it out of the plate<br />

stage rotation path.<br />

!! DAMAGE HAZARD !! Before moving the stage, make<br />

sure that the head is not in the way.<br />

4. Click the Stage setup tab and make sure that Disable stage autorepositioning<br />

is not selected.<br />

5. Click the Stage Setup tab.<br />

6. Click Move here on the same row as the teachpoint to which you<br />

want to move.<br />

The plate stage moves to the position.<br />
