5.2.3 AAS II on ValueCut
There are three types of AAS II mark patterns: 4-Point Positioning, Segmental Positioning, and Multiple
Copies. Note that before print out your designs by inkjet printers, the registration marks have to be
created on your graphic designs by cutting software. Hand-made marks or drawings won't be
reorganized by Mutoh cutting plotters.
1. 4-Point Positioning
This is the basic mark pattern that AAS II will auto detect four registration marks and contour cut
images inside those marks.
Command: Esc.D1;(XDist);(YDist):
Layout: 4 L-shaped marks at the 4 corners around the design
2. Segmental Positioning
In addition to 4 original points, the intermediate registration marks are added on both X axis and Y
axis to help contour cut accurately, especially for cutting large images.
Command: Esc.D2;(XDist);(YDist);(XStep);(YStep):
Layout:
In-between distance on X: 200~600mm, default 300mm
In-between distance on Y: 200-600mm, default 300mm
