When pressing the
TOP
or
BOTTOM JOG-key
, the media ( if loaded )
will move accordingly. It will move slowly for 2 seconds and speed up
afterwards.
The
ORIGIN
determines the position where the plotter can start cutting on
the media. By default, the origin is located at the lower right (when
standing in front of the cutting plotter).
The
ORIGIN
key allows the user to register a new origin point, if media
has been loaded. A new ORIGIN point can be set in OFF-LINE as well as
in ON-LINE mode. To register a new origin point, proceed as follows :
1) Using the JOG keys, locate the tool head at the desired origin
position.
2) Press the ORIGIN key. A specific LED-sequence on the LED-bar will
confirm your action.
If the tool head is located beyond the borders of the vinyl, the new origin
point will be rejected, leaving the ORIGIN unchanged.
The ORIGIN key also is used to activate the ALIGNMENT
FUNCTION.
The
PAGE
key has two functions and is available only in
ON-LINE
mode.
The first function is the immediate initiation of the AUTO-SHEET-OFF
function. The position where the auto-sheet-off occurs depends of the
situation. If no design has been cut at the spot where the tool head is
parked when pressing the PAGE button, the cutter will auto-cut at the
present location. When a design has already been cut, the tool head will
move to a location 5 mm (0.2”) beyond the sign and will perform an auto-
cut.
The page key’s second function is to start the automatic replot /sheet-off
function of the last file which has been sent to the cutter. This means, all
data that was sent since the last
INITIALISATION
command (“IN”).
Please proceed as follows:
a) Press the PAGE key for about two seconds.
b) On the LED bar, a LED will start blinking, indicating the number of
copies to be cut.
c) Using the VALUE +/- keys, the user can select the desired amount
of copies. The factory default settings allow a maximum of 10 copies
to be output.
