Variable	Meaning	Default Value
Millimeters per Second	The speed of the tape feed motor, measured in mm of tape advance per second.	15.0 mm / second

Calculating Millimeters per Second

The calculation of Millimeters per Second is done by advancing the Tape Feed 10 times, an expected 16mm each time. The actual distance travel is then physically measured and inputted, resulting in the new updated millimeters per second.

1.Cut off any existing tape feed from the Target.

2.Click the "Run Test" button.
The Tape Feed will pulse 10 times.

3.Once the Tape Feed stops after the 10th pulse tear off the tape that was feed through the target. Measure, using millimeters, the amount of tape that was feed through. The expected value is 160mm.

4.Input the actual distance traveled into the form and hit Calculate.

5.Repeat the test if the actual distance traveled is more than 155mm and 165mm..
