Introduction
General informations
This documentation describes the serial communication with the Collamat 3600/6600
an a PC or Laptop running under Windows 3.1, Windows 3.11and Windows 95.
Prevention of accidents
While installing and connecting the Collamat 6600 take care that the signal cables and
power cables can't become obstacles. The cables must be placed and installed according to the national safety requirements. Take care that the signalcables are not placed
beneath power cables.
The mains switch and the controll elements must be easily accessible.
Noise suppression
The dispenser C6600 is shielded according to the CE directives. Only cables which are
certificated by HM Collamat AG may be used for connecting the dispenser to the peripheral units and the mains power. Additional peripheral units must be connected to the
auxiliary mains terminal of the dispenser. These assemblies must be certificated by HM
Collamat AG.

Testmode
The firmware of the Collamat 3600 has a standard test and diagnostic routine. If the
DIL-switch TEST is switched on while turning the power on, the firmware starts the test
and diagnostics routine. See also figure 2.
In the testmode, the motor is started and stopped periodically with the speed, set on the
SPEED potentiometer. If there are any labels threaded through the Collamat 3600, the
labels will be dispensed periodically.
In the testmode, the Collamat 3600 can be controlled by an ASCII-terminal or a PC with
a terminal emulation software. The communication with the Collamat will be done
through the connector X104 using the RS232 protocol. The test software is menu driven
and self explaining. The user language is English.
To communicate with a PC, a serial communication cable is used. The figure 6 shows
the electrical connections of the serial cable:

DIL-switch DEL
This DIL-switch selects the mode of delayed predispensing. In this mode, the predispensing is delayed, until the moment when the product has left the goods scanner's
position.
DIL-switch NS
This DIL-switch selects the Nonstopmode. In the Nonstopmode two Collamat 6600 can
be used to work in a zero downtimemode. For further information to the Nonstopmode,
please read the chapter Nonstopmode.
DIL-switch R1
This DIL-switch selects the function of the POSITION-potentiometer. Switched off the
potentiometer has the normal POSITION-function. Switched on, the potentiometer is
used to adjust a GSC1-suppression. The working range of the suppression then is the
same as in the POSITION-mode.
DIL-switch R2
This DIL-switch selects the working range of the potentiometers. For further informations, please read the chapter Testmode. The factory setting of the potentiometers is
the normal working range.
The function of the SPEED potentiometer can be changed in the testmode. If the
DIL-switch R2 is switched on, the potentiometer SPEED can be used to fineadjust the
steprate of an incremental encoder in the range of ±10 %. The speed is then measured
with an incremental encoder. See also chapter Testmode and Incremental encoder.

In the testmode, the motor is started and stopped periodically with the speed, set on the

to its position, the potentiometer values are scanned or stored.

Potentiometer parameters
On the Collamat 6600 the potentiometers can be programmed. With this function the
working range of the potentiometers can be matched to a special labelling condition. To
enable the potentiometer programmability, the DIL-switch TEST must be set to ON.
The following table shows the standard potentiometer range with its upper and lower
values.

The function is called by pressing the O key. Then the Collamat 6600 gives the
following message:

O

R
: Reset to factory settings
SPACE : Exit
Select function with the Keys S,P,O,R,SPACE
The potentiometers can be selected with the S, P and O keys respectively. The R key
resets all values back to the factory settings.
For example the SPEED potentiometer will be programmed to a lower speed of
10 m/min and an upper speed of 20 m/min.

Using the + and - keys the value may be increased or decreased. When the desired value is displayed, the dataentry may be finished with the ENTER key.

The lower value will be selected with the L key and adjusted with the + or - keys. When
both values match the desired range the dataentry will be finished with the ENTER key.

data ? Y/N
Pressing the Y key stores the data. This function will be skipped with the N key. If the
datas are stored the following message will be displayed:

After this message the parameter menue will be displayed again. Now choose an other
potentiometer with its appropriate key or quit the function with the SPACE key.
Incremental encoder programming
The function Incremental encoder helps programming the speed measuring with an
incremental encoder. The first invocation of this function displays the following screen:
>i
Incremental-Encoder setting is OFF
Distance between two pulses is: 100/100 mm
+
: ON
: OFF
M
: Modify
R
: Reset to factory settings
ENTER : Keep
SPACE : Exit
Select function with the keys +,-,M,R,ENTER,SPACE
The + or - keys are used to switch the speed measuring with an incremental encoder on
or off. After pressing the M key the step width of the encoder can be entered. The R key
resets all values to the factory settings. The ENTER key stores all datas into the
EEPROM.
In the following example (see also page 40) the incremental encoder is programmed to
a step width of 1.57 mm:
>m
Enter new distance (1/100 mm) : 157
The value is entered in 1/100 mm without period and terminated with the ENTER key.
5999.527-01B 13.06.2007 WM
Seite 24 / 32
After pressing the ENTER key the following message will be displayed:
New distance is : 157/100 mm
+
: On
: Off
M
: Modify
R
: Reset to factory settings
ENTER : Keep
SPACE : Exit
Select function with the keys +,-,M,R,ENTER,SPACE
Now the incremental encoder can be turned on by pressing the + key.
Incremental-Encoder ON
The ENTER key now stores all datas into the EEPROM. This procedure must be confirmed with the Y key:
Incremental-Encoder setting is ON
Distance between two pulses is: 157/100 mm
Store Data ? Y/N
After pressing the Y key the programming of the incremental encoder is finished.
Updating EEPROM......OK
To reset the programming of the incremental encoder to the factory settings the R key
must be pressed. The following message then is displayed:
>r
Incremental-Encoder setting is OFF
Distance between two pulses is: 100/100 mm
Store Data ? Y/N
Updating EEPROM......OK
Remark:
To use the speed measuring with an incremental encoder, the DIL-switch R must be switched to ON, the encoder also must be programmed
to ON, and the programmed width must match the mechanical step
width.

Incremental encoder
The electrical connection of an incremental encoder is described in the chapter
Connection of the goods scanners. The programming is described in the chapter
Testmode. Now the mechanical attachment of the conveyor to the encoder will be
described.
If the speed measuring is done by an incremental encoder, the measured speed can be
fine adjusted by ±10 % with the SPEED potentiometer. The DATA HOLD switch only
stores the potentiometer setting. The dispensing speed will follow the product speed.
Figure 18 shows an example how to calculate the step width:
d

1: 200 / turn
2: d = 100 mm
1
Figure 18: Incremental encoder
Example:
Step =
d * Pi
Pulse
=
314mm
200
=
1.57mm
The step width must be in between 1.00 mm and 9.99 mm. For small distances between
the products, the stepping rate must be as small as possible. 2 mm are a good practice
value.
The minimum dispensing speed is 3 m/min, the maximum speed is 30 m/min. If no
incremental encoder is attached to the dispenser or if the conveyor is stopped, the
dispensing speed will be 3 m/min.
Remark:
The minimum distance between two products is equal to 6 times the
step width.
Remark:
The dispensing speed is captured at the moment of the detection of the
product. At this moment the dispensing speed will not change until the
label is completely dispensed !
