Abstract
The invention relates to a method for operating a labelling system which comprises a labelling device (1) having a feed assembly (2), a dispensing assembly (4) and an application assembly (6); wherein at least one of these functional units comprises a sensor assembly (8, 9, 10); wherein, in a labelling routine, a control assembly (11) activates the functional units in order to carry out the labelling process; wherein, in a monitoring routine, a monitoring assembly (12) captures the sensor data detected by the sensor assemblies (8, 9, 10), which data correspond to a sensor capture density specified for the corresponding functional unit; wherein the labelling system comprises a user interface (13). According to the invention, in a user-query routine, a user is prompted by the user interface (13) to input a state relating to a functional aspect of the labelling system, and the input state is transmitted to the monitoring assembly (12), which compares the input state with a specified state and, in the event of deviation, executes an internal response routine in which a sensor capture density, which is changed with respect to the previous sensor capture density, of at least one function…
