PANHANS Digital Cross-Cut Fence for Sliding Table Saws 680

Functional Description

The optional digital cross-cut fence has three stop elements, each equipped with its own battery-powered digital indicator. The corresponding flip stop is clamped using the handwheel next to the digital indicator.

• Adjustment accuracy: 0.1 mm
• djustment length: max. 3300 mm

Calibration of the Digital Cross-Cut Fence

If the dimensions of the digital indicator do not match the ruler scale, the mechanical measuring rulers must first be readjusted to the fence (see procedure in chapter  3), so that the cut dimensions to the saw blade are exactly accurate. Only afterwards the fence can be calibrated via the digital indicator.

• The display should show mm and ABS at the top. If not, press button ABS/INCR once.
• Note: Depending on the version resp. position and number of flip stops, different reference dimensions may appear in the display (see example below).

Example: Calibrating the dimensional setting

• Keep the buttons ENTER + SET pressed at the same time → The reference dimension stored in the unit appears. In our example it is the value “1000.0 mm” (see Figure 3).
• Release both buttons and move the flip stop by hand until it has reached the exact scale dimension of 1000.0 mm on the ruler. In this example, a devi-ating value of 1027.9 mm is shown in the digital display (see Figure 4).
• Keep the buttons ENTER + SET pressed at the same time → The correct dimension 1000.0 mm appears and is adopted.
• The setting is complete (see Figure 3).

For checking → Cut a test piece, remeasure and readjust if necessary.

Repeat the same procedure for the other flip stop (with the corresponding reference dimension).
Alternatively, the digital display can also be calibrated with the ruler measurement in the following way: Simply cut a test piece and transfer the scale dimension of the flip stop to the display as the reference dimension by simultaneously pressing ENTER + SET.

Change / Enter Reference Value
For certain applications it may be necessary to store a specific reference dimension. This section explains the procedure for changing the reference dimension to the example value of 1150.0 mm:

• Press and hold ENTER + SET simultaneously “rES” and “0.1” appear flashing alternately
• Press ENTER → “corFAc” and “1.00000” appear flashing alternately
• Press ENTER → The display alternates between flashing “reF” and the originally stored reference value → here in the example “o01000.0”.
• Press SET to select the digit to be changed (the flashing digit can be modified) and set the numerical value with the ABS/INCR button.
• Now press the ENTER button 2 times to exit the programming mode (normal operation). To check, hold down ENTER + SET simultaneously The new calibration value “1150.0 mm” appears in the normal mode (see Figure 3).Then perform the operation described in section 2 with the new reference dimension “1150.0 mm” to complete the operation.

Adjusting the Fence Rulers

Before the digital cross-cut fence can be calibrated, the measuring scales should be readjusted. For this pur-pose, the rulers can be moved back to the exact position manually after loosening the fixing screws (F) on the bottom side.

Procedure:

• Set the corresponding flip stop to any position.
• Move a workpiece to the flip stop and make a test cut on a test workpiece.
• Then measure the cut workpiece and note the dimension.
• Align the rulers with the stop so that the measured dimension exactly matches the scale of the rulers.
• Then tighten the two fixing screws (F) again.
