Software10

5 SoftwareThere are two main software components installed on the IPC of the LSS compact:• PCE Line Manager (PLM)• High Resolution Camera - Label Inspection (HRC - LI)Both software components are also installed on multiple other systems than the LSS compact. Tounderstand the possibilities of the system, it is necessary to read the following two user manuals:• User Manual PLM• User Manual HRC - LI

Installation 11

6 InstallationConnect the equipment to the power supply. The input voltage should be between 100 and 240 VAC.The PLM is installed on the LSS-C or on another PCE device before delivery. Adapt the PLM according to thedesired formats. Take the necessary steps detailed in the PLM operating manual.Load the media (label material) and ribbon (ink) to the printer and configure it to be ready for printinglabels. See detailed description for these working steps in the printer manual.

Operation12

7 OperationPrepare the Printer:− Load media and ribbon to printer and setup printer to be ready for printing labels.

Prepare PLM and HRC software:1 Create or load an inspection format at HRC-LI-Core software for current label.2 Create or load a line format at that contains reference data for the HRC-Camera and print data for the

printer.3 Run the line format in the .4 Start and control the machine and view the camera image as well as messages and information on the

HRC-LI-Core software screen.5 If required, take each label or only labels verified as "bad" from the machine. This depends on the

working mode of the machine.For detailed information on how to work with the PLM and the HRC LI Core software, refer to the usermanuals of the PLM and of the LI Core.
