Printer Test - MUTOH VC-600 User Manual

Automatic Aligning System
4. Automatic Distinction of the Plot Direction
For the convenience of users, ValueCut automatically detects the feeding direction of the material
when performing contour cutting. Figure 5-1 shows the Registration Mark detection sequence when
the material is fed in the standard way (1->2->3->4) while Figure 5-2 is how ValueCut detects
registration marks (3->4->1->2) when the material is reversely fed. ValueCut is able to detect
registration marks and performs contour cutting however users feed the media.
Direction detection steps:
a. Detects the position of the 3rd Registration Mark
b. Proceeds to the 4th Registration Mark to detect the direction
(The existing detection procedure will be performed, followed by the detection of new line
segments)
c. The information is reflected in the driver and recalculated before output
d. The registration mark detection and object output process is implemented
(Registration Mark detection sequence: 3->4->1->2)
