This video demonstrates the sensor orientation button functionality on the SCU6x controller for web guiding and monitoring applications in the converting industry. Learn how this feature allows you to quickly switch between two sensors installed in opposite directions, depending on whether the web is moving forward (unwind) or backward (rewind). This eliminates the need to navigate multiple screens, saving time and improving efficiency. Ideal for machines where the web can move in both directions, such as unwind and rewind applications, the SCU6x controller simplifies sensor management and ensures accurate web guiding regardless of web direction.

there are also applications where we have one actuator guiding the web and there might be a scenario where we want to guide the web with one sensor in One Direction and the other sensor in another Direction these are commonly seen in machines where the web can go both in forward and reverse Direction especially in an unwind or a rewind you can have it configured where in One Direction the the system behaves like an unwind with a sensor installed on the fixed machine frame and then when it goes in the backward Direction the same system behaves like a rewind where the other sensor would be installed in a chasing kind of configuration in those cases we can switch between the two sensors pretty quickly just from the home screen without us having to navigate to multiple screens to enable or disable the sensor so that's the functionality for the sensor orientation buttons
