1-6L025317 Issue 5 July 2014
HEALTH & SAFETY
SPECIFIC DANGERS
Electrical Energy
In the D-Series laser marking system, the maximum operating voltage is the
connected mains voltage, which can pose a hazard to health. The mains
voltage to be maintained is shown on the name plate.
Work on live components must only be performed by authorised personnel.
In the case of a defective power supply, operation of the laser marking
system is to be stopped immediately and is only to be repaired by
authorised personnel.
Keep the control unit closed at all times. Only expressly authorised
personnel are permitted to open the control unit.
Compressed Air
The laser print head is cooled by compressed air (D120i IP65, D320i IP65).
Air overpressure inside the laser print head is harmful and may lead to
rupture of the cabinet.
The maximum pressure for the compressed air supplied into the print head
is 4 bar. A pressure supply of 4 bar must not be exceeded at any time. The
compressed air has to be free of oil, Class 1.7.2 of ISO8573.
The laser print head has two air outlets. Both air outlets must be kept clear
as blocked air outlets can cause an overpressure inside the cabinet and
may lead to rupture (potential hazard). Please do not swap air inlet and
outlet.
The outer diameter of the outlet hose must be 12 mm. The length of the
compressed air outlet hose must not exceed 4 metres!
Note:Contact Domino before disconnecting the silencer or
connecting a hose to the air outlet 2 at the laser.. If two hoses
are used for the compressed air outlet these have to be placed
in different positions for safety reasons.One event must not
block both hoses.
Water Cooling
Handle the glycol based coolant with care. For more details see the safety
data sheet of the coolant.
As a guide, avoid skin contact with the coolant. Always wear protective
gloves and safety goggles when working with the coolant.
In case of:
• skin contact - remove the coolant by washing with water.
• eye contact - remove by washing with water and seek medical help
immediately.
• swallowing - seek medical help immediately.
L025317 Issue 5 July 20141-7
HEALTH & SAFETY
Refer to the specific Safety Data Sheet supplied with the coolant for further
information.
Only a water cooler with an empty tank is allowed to be shipped. Refer to
the Water Chiller manual for the procedure to empty the tank.
Laser Radiation
Laser radiation can pose a risk to eyes and skin. The danger is not only
posed by direct laser radiation, but also by scattered radiation and
reflections from the work piece or the packaging machine. The degree of
injury depends on the duration of the effect, the power and the wavelength
of the laser.
Lasers and their installations are classified into seven laser protection
classes, depending on their potential danger. Class 1 is the safest and
Class 4 is potentially the most harmful. These classes are defined in detail
in EN60825 Part 1 and are summarised below:
Class 1The accessible laser radiation may be visible or invisible and is
harmless.
Class 1M The accessible laser radiation may be visible or invisible and is
harmless, provided additional optical instruments are not used.
Class 2 The accessible laser radiation is visible and is harmless for
accidental exposure to eyes for periods of less than 0.25
seconds.
Class 2M The accessible laser radiation is visible and is harmless for
accidental exposure to eyes for periods of less than 0.25
seconds, provided additional optical instruments are not used.
Class 3R The accessible laser radiation may be visible or invisible. It is
potentially harmful to eyes.
Class 3B The accessible laser radiation may be visible or invisible. Direct
radiation is harmful to the eyes and skin although diffuse
radiation (reflected from a matt surface) is harmless.
Class 4 The accessible laser radiation may be visible or invisible. Direct
and diffuse radiation is extremely harmful to eyes and skin and
can pose a fire risk if projected onto combustible materials.
The D-Series laser marking systems, taken by themselves, are
Class 4 and must not be used until suitable, interlocked
guarding is fitted to achieve a Class 1 laser installation that
physically prevents access to the laser radiation or automatically
disables the laser when access is required to the marking area
(for cleaning or maintenance, etc.).
1-8L025317 Issue 5 July 2014
HEALTH & SAFETY
Harmful Dusts and Vapours
When radiating materials by means of a laser, harmful dusts and vapours
can be produced. The user is responsible for appropriate measures, e.g. an
exhaust system, to reduce such harmful dusts and vapours to a level that
complies with the allowed maximum concentration of pollutants at the work
place.
Lenses
Germanium and Zinc Selenide lenses are used in the D-Series laser system.
Lenses must not be touched.
If the lens has been soiled, it must be thoroughly cleaned (see “CLEANING
THE LENS” on page 5-3) before any operation.
The lens is not water resistant and must therefore only be cleaned with
Isopropyl Alcohol. Dry the lens using cotton swabs (Q-tips), ensuring the
surface of the lens is not scratched.
The lens has to be protected with a cover against splash water when
cleaning the system.
Scan Head Mirrors
Never touch the mirrors of the scan head.
The mirrors are inside the scan head and there is a small risk of touching
them when cleaning the lens.
The mirrors for the i-Tech 15 scan head are made of Beryllium.
When the mirrors have been touched accidentally wash hands thoroughly
with water and soap.
Fumes and dust from Beryllium metal can be hazardous if inhaled.
Carefully clean the mirrors if the have been accidentally touched.
L025317 Issue 5 July 20141-9
HEALTH & SAFETY
Noise
All systems emit during operation a noise level lower than 80dB(A),
Therefore no personal protective equipment against noise is needed.
Crushing
There is a crushing hazard during installation and operation due to:
• Product moving along the laser head.
• Products moving into and out of protective housing.
• Doors and maintenance openings of protective housings.
Especially prevent the risk of squeezing.
Laser Marking Process
Potential fire risks could result from examples as listed below. This list is not
considered to be complete. Local conditions must be considered as well.
• Printing on not specified material (e.g. easily inflammable or explosive
materials).
• Invalid parameter settings (e.g. very low mark speed).
• Invalid parameter settings due to corrupted print data.
• Printing constantly on the same product (e.g. no product movement
caused by various reasons).
• Inflammable gases or materials inside the working area.
In printing mode the laser beam is controlled by software which must be
considered as part of the risk assessment.
Note:Install a fire detector near the laser to monitor the marking
process.

GUARDING
The following type of guarding, using the recommended materials and
construction techniques, is required to achieve a safe installation.
WARNING:Never install a laser in such a way that the lens
points to a door or in the direction of an operator.
Access Guards
Access guards are required to prevent direct human access to the laser
beam. In practice, this requires full guarding of the area between, and
including, the laser output lens and the area to be marked on the substrate.
Note:Guarding is required behind the substrate to prevent access to
the laser beam when the substrate is removed, or following
accidental burn through of the substrate.
Visor Guards
Visor guards are required to prevent the escape of scattered radiation.
Often the access guarding can be designed to perform this function without
the need of an extra guard.
WARNING:Visor guards have to be installed at a minimum
distance of four times the focus distance to the
laser beam.

Beam Stop Guard
A beam stop guard is required for applications where guarding material is
fitted within 100mm of the laser lens focal plane. The beam stop is to
prevent burn through of the guard should the laser be repeatedly operated
without the substrate in position. The beam stop must be capable of
absorbing the full output power of the laser for a period of eight hours and
be large enough to cover the complete laser marking field area.

A metallic guard with low reflectivity must be used. The housing must be
orientated in a way that no laser light is reflected back to the laser as the
reflected light may damage the laser.
The thickness of the guard material depends on the mechanical strength
required for stable housings, and the amount of ‘burn through’ anticipated.
For the purpose of adequate mechanical rigidity and laser safety, a
thickness of at least six millimetres for 10W 30W laser systems and a
thickness of at least eight millimetres for 60W laser systems is
recommended. To ensure laser safety a greater thickness of the guard
material may be required.
Housings made from Makrolon® 099 must be installed within a minimum
distance of the laser lens of:
• 4 times the focus distance for 10W and 30W systems.
• 5 times the focus distance for 60W systems.
These distances are important to eliminate mirror reflection from any
surrounding parts.
In a fault condition, these materials withstand the laser beam for a limited
time before the beam burns through. The laser must therefore be monitored
to avoid a risk of fire.
A ceramic or metal plate may be used as a beam stop. A greater thickness
is required to achieve an “eight hour burn through” requirement.
Guidance regarding laser guards can be found in EN60825-Part 4.

HEALTH & SAFETY
Interlock Switches
Interlock switches must be fitted to all access guards preventing access to
the laser output lens and marking area that can be opened without the use
of access tools.
Interlock switches must be wired into the laser control circuit so that the
laser beam is disabled when the guard is removed.
Emergency Off
Integrate the laser into the emergency off circuit of the machine into which
the laser is integrated. Install an emergency off push button near the laser
marking systems which turns off the laser. Connect the emergency off push
button via the interlock circuit to the controller.
Guarding Labels
Domino recommend that the following information is prominently displayed
on the guard:
WARNING:Class 4 laser is enclosed in a Class 1 enclosure.
Operation of the system with safety guards
removed may result in hazardous exposure to
laser radiation.
These labels are supplied with the laser system. Additional labels are
available from Domino Printing Sciences plc as part of the Guarding Labels
Kit, Part Number L007628.
L025317 Issue 5 July 20141-13
HEALTH & SAFETY
Specific Precautions During Maintenance or
Repair Work
D-Series laser marking systems are Class 4.
In order to eliminate any danger to the operators, and in accordance with
the conditions of laser protection Class 1, the laser beam must always be
kept inside suitable guarding.
During maintenance or checks, laser radiation dangerous to persons can
become directly accessible. Persons within the dangerous work area must
undertake protective measures. Of particular importance is:
• Always wear protective goggles approved in the user’s country whilst
working
• Never look directly into the Laser beam (not even, when wearing
protective goggles)
• Never expose skin to laser radiation
• Never insert flammable materials into the radiation beam
Laser protective goggles, approved for the respective intended purpose
can be ordered from Domino (pt. No. L007761).

2-6L025317 Issue 5 July 2014
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Control Unit
CAUTION:Do not expose the control unit to any vibrations.
The control unit must be installed on a stable base.
The control unit has three internal blow-out fuses.
The operation voltage is 90V to 264V at 47Hz to 63Hz.
Two fuses (F1 and F2) for the input AC power
• F1 for the protected phase and
• F2 for the neutral line.
Fuse F3 protects the neutral line of the safety relay.
Note:The phase line of the safety relay is protected internally by the
laser power supply unit.
The control unit needs at least 80mm free space on all sides for proper
ventilation.
Power supply
The mains supply is provided by a 5m mains cable, which is connected to
the control unit via a four-pole plug. It may be necessary to install a suitable
AC mains plug to the loose end of the cable, connected as follows:
Green/YellowGround/Earth
Black 2Neutral
Black 1Live
The equipment specifications, listed on the name plate (voltage, frequency,
power consumption) are to be observed under all circumstances. The
correct fusing is to be made external to the laser system
The mains power connection must always be easily accessible during
operation in order to quickly remove the power from the laser system when
required.
The control unit contains the electrical components necessary for
distribution of the correct voltages to the laser head.
The mains power AC line needs to be fused by
• a 16A fuse at 230V operating voltage,
• a 20A at 110V operating voltage.
Use a quick fuse or a circuit beaker characteristic B/C.
Connecting the protective earth of the laser marking system to the
packaging machine earth rail prevents a ground loop.

In this configuration no additional
product detector should be connected.
2-18L025317 Issue 5 July 2014
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The product detect interface offers NPN or PNP standard wiring. Different
types of product detect sensors (optical, magnetic, etc.) can be connected
to this input. A shaft encoder may be connected here.
Connector Type:
• IEC 60130-9 Type 08 way female
Mating Cable Connector (IP67 Types):
• Lumberg: 033208-1
Pin description
• Pin 1 +24VF - 24V floating, max 120mA
• Pin 2 GNDF - Floating Ground
• Pin 3 PD+ - Product Detect positive input
• Pin 4 PD- - Product Detect negative input
• Pin 5 CHA+ - Encoder Channel A positive input
• Pin 6 CHA- - Encoder Channel A negative input
• Pin 7 CHB+ - Encoder Channel B positive input
• Pin 8 CHB- - Encoder Channel B negative input
All input circuits contain opto couplers.
The input range is 10-30V, (NPN, PNP, RS422 differential) at an input
impedance of 2 kOhm.
The maximum pulse frequency of CHA and CHB is 120 kHz
The minimum pulse length of the PD input is 10 micro seconds.
The maximum current for X3, X6, X7 and X21 (optional user port) is 0.5A. In
case of an over-current an automatic resettable fuse protects the system.
The Shaft Encoder input is directly connected in parallel with the
Product Detect Interface. For this reason the electrical specification is
identical as well.
For the same reason, the standard encoder cable has no “Z” connection in
order not to get signal collision with the product detector. If needed e.g. in
labeller applications, the isolated leads may be soldered to the scheduled
pins, or a fully connected cable (Z- version) may be ordered.
Three different types of shaft encoders can be connected:
The machine interface delivers inputs and outputs to control the print
process and provides status information. It can be used to
communicate with a PLC or to harness external NPN or PNP type
control elements.

Pin description
Pin A +24VF - 24V floating
This pin offers 24V floating. The maximum current for X4 and X28 is 0.5A. In
case of an over-current an automatic resettable fuse protects the system.
Pin B GNDF - Floating Ground.
Pin C INP_COM - This pin is defined as common pin for all inputs.
Pin D LASER_START - Mark enable input.
A logic high level on this pin puts the system into print mode and resets
error messages. The laser is enabled.
Note:This input internally works in parallel to the other (X29 and X59)
Laser Start Inputs. Thus, applying of constant voltage at this pin
will suppress edges coming from the other Laser Start Inputs.
Pin E MARK_CTRL - Mark inhibit / release input
A logic high or low level at this input enables or disables the Print_Go signal
delivered by pin F of the X4, pin 2 of X29 or pin3/4 of X3. The active level
can be selected by software.
Pin F PRINT_GO - Print Start input
A rising or falling edge at this input starts the print. The active level can be

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The Compile OK Signal
The sequence of the Compile OK signal normally follows the ready signal.
The Compile OK signal goes into high state together with or later than the
ready signal - depending on the compile time of the current printing
message.
There are only two cases where the CPI signal goes into low state and the
RDY signal stay at high state.
Buffer Empty
The CPI signal goes low as the buffer runs empty. An error message will
occur if a print is triggered with an empty buffer. Normal printing carries on
if the buffer is filled with data before the next triggered print.
Lock DSP Data on Change
It is possible to use the CPI signal to detect when changes to the message
have been processed. As reaction to these changes, Dynamark first lowers
the CPI output and raises it again when the changes have been processed
so that they are included in the next print. Note that Dynamark does not
prevent marking, so print triggered while the CPI output is low will not raise
a fault but only print the old data. These external changes are typically
triggered via the Dynamark 4 Remote Interface or user ports.
Changes that can be used to lower the CPI output:
• activating a changed message from the editor
• SETTEXT via Dynamark 4 Remote Interface
• SETDATA via Dynamark 4 Remote Interface
• SETVAR via Dynamark 4 Remote Interface
• counter increment via user input
• text select via user input
L025317 Issue 5 July 20142-23
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Changes that will not lower the CPI output:
• BUFFERDATA via QuickStep Interface
• conditional printing via user input
• counter increment via print start
• date/time text elements
Note:Changes via the QuickStep Interface have in common that they
trigger MSG 26 (“data change complete”, see SETMSG) and
that they can be used as part of a transaction in order to
process multiple changes as one (see BEGINTRANS,
EXECTRANS).
In order to activate this feature, it is necessary to set a flag in the
configuration.
By default, this flag is not set and the CPI output remains high even while
applying these changes.
The CPI signal will now be low as long as compilation on the DSP is forced
by external modifications.
When using both options (Buffermode and “bLockDSPDataOnChange”
Flag=1) both will influence the CPI signal.
2-24L025317 Issue 5 July 2014
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
How to set the Flag to Lock the DSP
This should only be done by service technicians or special trained users.
To set this flag l
•Login as service
•Go to Home > Settings > Advanced > > Configuration Files.
• Select “Ultramark”.
• Select “Compiler” and the value “bLockDSPDataOnChange”.
• Set “bLockDSPDataOnChange” to 1.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY OF THE LASER SYSTEM
The safety of a laser guarding is ensured by interlock doors which must be
equipped with interlock switches which are observed by a certified safety
relay.
The former standard EN 954 Part 1 classified the safety of machines into
five categories: B, 1, 2, 3, and 4.
According to the risk analysis of Domino Laser GmbH for laser coding
systems safety category 2 had to be reached. An eclectically single circuit
connection was sufficient for the safety doors when using the safety relay
“PNOZ-S4”.
EN 954 has been replaced by EN 13849.
Since the beginning of 2012 the risk analysis has to be done according to
the standard EN 13849. This standard distinguishes between different
performance levels: a, b, c, d, and e. A risk analysis according to this
standard leads to the result that performance level d has to be reached.
Therefore a two circuit connection is needed to the safety relay as it has
been needed for category 3.
This means that the laser system has to be connected by a double circuit
connection to double switches of the safety door. This double switch needs
to have forcibly guided contacts of the type “normally closed”.
When using this double circuit connection operation with or without crosswire short detection is possible.
Cross-wire short detection means that the safety relay detects a short
between the two circuits. A short may be produced by damaging an
interlock cable, e.g. by a vehicle in a factory hall.
Without cross-wire short detection performance level d is reached.
With cross-wire short detection performance level e is reached.
The functionality cross-wire short detection is activated on the Pilz safety
relay. Cross-wire short detection is switched off when using the setting “Cat
2/3”. It is active when using the setting “Cat 4”.
The setting of the category has to match the wiring at the safety relay.

Connection of Compressed Air to the Laser
WARNING:Operating air pressure is 4 bar!
Connect the hose from the air installation kit to the laser compressed air
inlet.
A safety valve is at the air inlet. It opens if the air flow at the inlet exceeds
450lpm.
For safety reasons there are two separate outlets for compressed air. To
one of them a silencer is connected (Air Outlet 2). A hose is connected to
the other one (Air Outlet 1). The end of this hose has to be installed in a way
that it does not get blocked at any time or that water may infiltrate into the
hose. Please check the outlets for blocking and dirt on a regular monthly
basis. Blocked outlets may damage the laser!
One may check the function of the safety valve upon installation. Turn the
line pressure up to 3,5 bar to 4,5 bar until the safety valve opens. Reduce
the pressure by 01, bar to ensure the correct air flow. Please note that air
pressure is only applied to the safety valve if the switch valve inside the
laser head is open. If it is closed there is no air flow through the laser head.
Both air outlets must be kept clear. Only one silencer has to be installed to
the air outlets. Do not use silencers on both air outlets. Do not swap inlets
and outlets for compressed air.
Check the silencer for dirt once a year. Remove the stainless steel housing
to check the silencer.
Minimum inner diameter of the outlet hose must be 12 mm. The length of
the outlet hose must not exceed 4 metres.

AIR FLOW SETTINGS
The air flow through the laser head and thereby the consumption of
compressed air is controlled by an internal switch valve.
In order to reach the specified cooling capacity the line pressure before the
laser head must be set to approximately 3.5 bar. This results in an air flow of
400 litres per minute if the switch valve is open.
In order to prevent the laser from damage the switch valve opens for 60
seconds each time the marking system is set to its “Ready” state. After this
sequence the switch valve opens every 10 seconds. Check and re-adjust
the line pressure during the first off cycles after the initial 60 seconds
cooling period. The flow control mechanism monitors the temperature of
the laser source and adjusts the length of the periods where the switch
valve is open. If the laser is running cold, the air flow is engaged for 1
second. Once the laser heats up this period gets longer until the open state
would last for more than 9 seconds. At this point the valve will stop
switching and remains open.

COOLING THE i-TECH 15 SCAN HEAD
The i-Tech 15 is an extremely fast scan head with relatively large and fast
mirrors. This allows for superior performance in applications where a large
marking field is required.
In order to ensure reliable operation of the scan head at high temperatures
and/or high duty cycles the scan head may need additional cooling. To
avoid interruptions in the manufacturing processes we strongly recommend
a careful evaluation of the given conditions. The table on the next page
provides information about when to use additional compressed air cooling
in typical marking applications.
The Mark Duty Cycle (MDC) may be calculated using this formula:
• Duty Cycle (%) = (mark time (ms) x product rate (products/s)/ 10
• Example e.g. for a message of 50ms mark time printing 4 prints per
second. The duty cycle is 50 x 4 / 10 = 20% in this example.
Operating pressure is 4 bar.
To cool the scan head, connect the compressed air to the inlet and the
silencers to the air outlets.
2-48L025317 Issue 5 July 2014
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Air Flow Settings for the i-Tech 15 Scan Head
The components from air kit L015288 are used to connect the compressed
air cooling and to install the silencers.
We recommend using the Domino standard air kit EPP002300, especially if
you are not sure about the available air quality or line pressure.
The settings for the throttle valve are given for a line pressure of 4 bar using
the Domino air kit. In the first step the throttle valve is completely closed no air flow through the scan head. In order to set the correct air flow open

WATER COOLING D620i
The water chiller and compressed air must be connected to the laser. To
avoid damage to the laser tube, only clean compressed air free of oil, to
Class 1.7.2 of ISO8573 should be used. The compressed air is used to
prevent too high humidity values inside the laser module. Therefore to
prevent water condensation inside the laser module.
Adjust the pressure of the compressed air between 2.5 and 3 bar. This
equals an air flow rate of 20 litres per minute. The water chiller is operated
by the controller via the X28 connector. Also switching on and off is done
via this connection.
See the water chiller manual for more details. Coolant may be ordered from
Domino. The coolant has to be exchanged at least every two years.
Note:Contact Domino before disconnecting the silencer or
connecting a hose to the air outlet 2 at the laser. If two hoses are
used for the compressed air outlet these have to be placed in
different positions for safety reasons.
2-50L025317 Issue 5 July 2014
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Both air outlets must be kept clear. Only one silencer has to be installed to
the air outlets. Do not use silencers on both air outlets. Do not swap inlets
and outlets for compressed air.
The outer diameter of the outlet hose must be 12 mm. The length of the
outlet hose must not exceed 10 metres.
CAUTION:Follow the safety guideline of chapter 1 regarding
water cooling.
Note:It is possible to operate an air kit and a water chiller in parallel.
Both are activated via X28. For details see the water chiller
manual.
FUME EXTRACTION SYSTEM
Domino recommend installing the DPX500, DPX1000, DPX1500 or the
DPX2000 fume extraction and purifier system. These are designed to
protect personnel from hazardous dust and fumes that may be produced
by the laser marking process.
The DPX1000 is a general purpose fume extraction system that removes
particulates. The DPX2000 fume extraction system has an additional filter
and a chemical pad to remove odours and toxic gases. The DPX500,
DPX1000, DPX1500 and DPX2000 will be equipped with a connector for
the Domino D-Series Laser System.
WARNING:When printing onto PVC material, the DPX2000
Extractor should be used due to the toxic and
corrosive gases expelled during the process.
For details, see the manual included with the Fume Extraction system.

POSITIONING CODE ON THE PRODUCT
The position of the code on the product depends on two factors:
(1) The location of the product detector (print-go), relative to the mark
window on the product; and
(2) The ‘Encoder Delay’ setting in the software.
The D-Series laser can start marking as soon as the print-go signal is
received. In most situations, the mark can be moved on the product by
moving the product detector upstream or downstream (i.e. triggering the
marking process to start earlier or later).
By moving the product detector in the opposite direction to the direction of
travel, the print is triggered earlier, and the mark moves further to the left
within the Mark Window. By moving the product detector with the direction
of travel, the print is triggered later and so the mark moves to the right of
the Mark Window.
In some instances, it is not possible to relocate the product detector. The
D-Series includes a feature called ‘Encoder Delay’, that allows the coder to
wait a defined number of encoder pulses before starting the marking
process. Since the encoder is measuring the distance that the product has
travelled, this allows the print-go signal to be delayed by a known and userdefined distance of product travel.
Note that the encoder delay can only be used to make the marking start
later. In the example above, this would move the mark to the right within the
mark window.
In the example above, if the detector is upstream (before) the laser head,
the print would be triggered too early to print in the mark window, so the
encoder delay would be used to locate the print in the correct position.

The encoder delay can be set on a message-by-message basis, which
allows a single product detector location to be used for multiple sizes of
product or to allow different code locations on products of the same size.
To set the encoder delay login as administrator and navigate to:

Achieving Maximum Line Speed
The D-Series includes a feature to extend the marking field when a moving
product is marked as it moves past the print head. This feature is used to
achieve maximum line speed.
Marking mode has to be configured for “Mark on the Fly”.
Adjust the marking mode via: Home > Settings > Production Line Setup >
Line Movement > Setup Line Movement
Normally the first object in the direction of movement of a message is
marked when it has entered the marking area below the laser lens.

Example of a setup message to be marked.
Marking starts when the marking field of the product is moved into the
marking area of the laser.
To achieve maximum line speed, the field can be extended behind the
marking direction. The marking starts when the object enters the marking
area.

Product movement direction
To extend the marking field move the object in the opposite direction to the
movement outside the marking field (see dotted line of the field borders).
Marking starts as the product marking field enters the marking area.
Note:Moving the mark on the screen, whether in the real or extended
fields, can move the mark on the product. First set the ideal
position of the mark on the screen, then adjust the product
detector (print go) or change the encoder delay to set the actual
mark position onto the product.
