## Transcript

Today we want to show a feature in our web guides that allows for guide point adjustment We can do a fine guide point adjustment or a gross guide point adjustment without having to physically move the sensor The adjustment can be made on the operator interface by just sliding our finger across the screen In a previous video we talked about the fine guide point adjustment and today we want to go over the gross point adjustment For that we have to go to the operator interface screen, and there is a black bar on the screen and all you have to do is slide your finger across the black bar and it will move the guide point After that you will need to hit accept and the guide point will be set Unless you hit the accept button after moving the guide point, the system will not register the change in guide point If by mistake you touch the screen and move the guide point, the guide point will return to its original setting unless you hit the accept icon This is just another of our features on our web guides available in the control unit version 2.4 which is standard in all our web guides since June 2017 Fine and gross guide point adjustment, something we believe will be very beneficial for any converting operation Visit our website at www.r2r-tech.com for more information on all these features
