When the tension electronics has been powered on for the first time after delivery, you are askedto SetLanguage and then to SetUnit. These two settings must be performed to be able to
proceed with the rest of the setup. Language and unit can be changed later on if desired.
3.8 Performing a Fast Setup
The fast setup guides you through a minimum number of steps to set up the tension electronics.
You are asked to answer some questions and to enter desired values. These selections and
parameter settings must be made to get the tension electronics ready for measurement.
Only a limited number of selections and parameter settings are set in the fast setup. All other
parameters are set as factory default values. See Appendix A.4 Factory Default Settings.
The fast setup can be made in two ways, depending on how the wrap gain is set.
The wrap gain can be set by selecting “HangWeight” or “EnterWrapGain”.
• Using Hanging Weights, see Section 3.8.1.
• Using Wrap Gain, see Section 3.8.2.
Hanging Weights and Wrap Gain are explained in Section 3.12.5.

Performing Fast Setup using Hanging Weights
The simplest method to set the wrap gain in this tension system is to use a known weight that
loads the center of the roll with a rope that follows the web path exactly.
