Circuit board used on all Take-A-Label label dispensers with "-18" after the model number. Handles both the new style photo eye, and the new style micro switch.
In 2026 Take-A-Label modified the board to make it easier for the wires to connect. Instead of using spade connectors, the boards have a PCB terminal block that allows for quick and easy wiring.
To install the new board, cut off the spade terminal, strip a small portion of the wire (about 1/4" or 3mm), lift the orange lever, insert the exposed wire, press lever down.
Both the photo eye model and micro switch use the same board.
ML = Motor Line (Hot)
MN = Motor Neutral
SO = Switched Output (wire with power coming back from switch)
SI = Switch Input (wire feeding power to switch (hot)
EL = Eye Line (Hot), If Microswitch model the Black wire.
ES = Eye Signal (the photoeye output), If Microswitch model the Red wire.
EN = Eye Neutral, If Microswitch model not used.
PL = Power Line (Hot)
PN = Power Neutral
