Abstract
A method for defining an evaluation region of a register sensor for detecting register marks on printing substrates in printing substrate processing machines includes connecting the register sensor to a computer. In a first step, the register sensor measures an edge of a printing substrate, starting from the edge, the evaluation region is set to a starting value, and in at least one second step, the evaluation region is set to an increased value until the register sensor detects a first edge of the register mark.
Claims10
A method for defining an evaluation region of a register sensor for detecting register marks on printing substrates in printing substrate processing machines, the method comprising the following steps:
- connecting a computer to the register sensor;
- in a first step, using the register sensor to measure an edge of a printing substrate;
- starting from the edge of the printing substrate, setting the evaluation region to a starting value;
- and
- then in at least one second step, setting the evaluation region to an increased value until the register sensor detects a first edge of the register mark.
