Installation and Setup 29 Rotating or Tilting the Printhead The printhead can be mounted in a rotated or tilted orientation. This is useful when printing on an incline conveyor or vertical web. The printhead can be rotated 90 degrees in a counter-clockwise direction or 90 degrees in a clockwise direction when viewed from behind the printhead.
30 Installation and Setup Cable Connections Connecting Photocell Trigger to Controller Connect the photocell signal cable to the “IN” connection on the back of the CoPilot controller. Connection “IN” Controller Back Panel Photocell 1046 Connecting an Optional Encoder to Controller Connect the optional encoder and photocell trigger to the RJ12 adapter cable.
Installation and Setup 31 Custom Triggering Device Some applications may require the use of a site-specific triggering device. Use the following Pin Assignments on the RJ12 CoPilot connector to install a custom triggering mechanism. Attention! Site-specific or unusual devices should only be connected by trained and qualified personnel.
32 Installation and Setup Printhead Data Cable Attention! Ensure that the controller power switch is turned OFF and the controller is disconnected from the power source when connecting a printhead. On the front of the CoPilot controller, there are data connections for two printheads. They are labeled “PRINTHEAD 1”...
Installation and Setup 33 Connecting a Second Printhead Attention! Ensure that the controller power switch is turned OFF and the controller is disconnected from the power source when connecting a second printhead. To connect a second printhead, connect the printhead data cable to PRINTHEAD 2 port on Controller and connect the other end to the designated printhead.
“IN” and “OUT” data connections. However, the number of printers chained through a single triggering device would be limited by the specific installation and use. Other Squid Ink printing systems can also be connected downstream from the controller. For example, there could be a CoPilot, AutoPilot, and an SQ-2 printing system all attached to a single triggering device.
USB Port 1690 Since each installation is unique, Squid Ink cannot anticipate an ideal location for the low ink warning beacon. The beacon has a generic mounting bracket attached to it. Mount the warning beacon within 5 feet (1.5 meters) from the controller.
36 Installation and Setup Connecting to a Desktop PC To connect to a desktop PC, connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port Desktop PC on the CoPilot controller and to the Ethernet port on the PC. Ethernet Cable 1664 Connecting to a Local Area Network The network connection is located on the controller.
Installation and Setup 37 USB Port There is a USB port located at the back of the CoPilot controller. The USB port can be used for a variety of USB supported devices such as a Wi-Fi adapter antenna, Low ink alarm light, scanner, or removable USB storage device.
38 Installation and Setup Optional Four Port USB Hub There is only a single USB port located on the CoPilot controller, however, the CoPilot is not limited to a single USB device. The optional four port USB hub (part number 2004242) can provide three points of entry for USB supported devices.
Installation and Setup 39 Power Supply There is a power cord receptacle located on the back of the CoPilot controller. Attach the supplied power cord into the power cord receptacle making sure the power switch is in the OFF position and plug the power cord into a properly wired and grounded electrical outlet.
One ink system (cartridge or bag) can supply two printheads if they are mounted at the same height. Caution! Use only authorized ink and fluid cartridges from Squid Ink Manufacturing. Use of unauthorized fluids may damage the equipment, cause a safety hazard, and will void the warranty.

Scratches will result in diminished print quality. The printhead is NOT warrantied against scratches on the orifice plate. Squid Ink’s non-abrasive wipes are included in the CoPilot Startup Kit. They can be ordered as a separate item (part number 2007021).
Page 48
48 Operation After the vent tube on the printhead has been uncapped, place a paper towel or container under the vent tube open end to catch any ink. Hold a non-abrasive lint-free wipe in front of the printhead face against the nozzle plate (several wipes may be required). Gently but firmly press the priming bulb repeatedly until ink begins to exit the vent tube and leak from the nozzle face.

External Cleaning The outside surfaces of the CoPilot 500 printing system can be wiped clean with a clean cloth and flushed with Squid Ink approved cleaning fluid. Gently wipe the components clean. Never immerse the components in water or cleaning fluids.
Attention! Use only non-abrasive lint-free wipes (part number 2007021) and appropriate Squid Ink Manufacturing fluids to clean the nozzle face or flush the printhead. Pour some of the flush fluid that is compatible with your ink into a clean cup or other clean container that is accessible by the end of the syringe.
