The Look Ahead feature configures the logic to “look ahead” to its next downstream zone and if it is occupied when a carton is entering its zone, the module will dynamically adjust the MDR to the selected speed. This feature in intended to be used in higher speed applications were increased stopping distance is required to keep cartons from over-travelling their stop positions. This function can be applied per zone or for multiple zones

A carton is accumulated and stopped at Zone 1 and another carton is conveying at normal set speed
When carton reaches end of Zone 3, Zone 2 will wake up and run at the Look Ahead Speed

Fast Release Time

The Fast Release Time option allows you to set a delay before the Slow Down Speed is engaged for the slow-down zone

When Zone 2 wakes up it will run at normal set speed until the Fast Release Time has expired, then it will switch to run at the Slow Down Speed
