PTR308 Automatic Recoater with Linear Proof Tester
Chapter 7 VYT300C Handset Controller
The PTR308 is operated using the VYT300C Handset Controller.
7.1. Power Up
With the Handset Controller properly connected to the unit, turn on the PTR308 using
the switch located at the back of the unit.
The system will go through an initialization process that takes a few seconds, during
which time it will home the right fiber holding block. During initialization the Handset
Controller will auto-detect the PTR308, and if all parameters read from the PTR308
match the last known open file of the Handset, then the handset will display that file
name below the menu tabs. Otherwise, that space is left blank.
The handset will display the Recoat/Test screen on startup. From here the user can
start a recoat, run a proof test or switch to another menu tab. Recoat and Proof Test
parameters can be viewed and changed in the Edit menu. Parameters can be saved
to a file, and those files can be managed in the File menu. The suite of supplemental
tools available on the PTR308 can be found on the Tools menu
7.2. File
In addition to the standard Open File, Save File, and Save
File As options, the Handset also allows files to be
Deleted, Exported, or Imported.
Deleting a file cannot be undone, so the handset will
provide a prompt to confirm deleting a file.
Exporting or importing a file will require a memory device
to be connected to the Program Port of the VYT300C.
Selecting Export file will show a list of files which are
currently saved to the handset. A copy of that file will be
saved the connected memory device in .xml format.
Importing a file will display all folders and all .xml
extension files saved to the memory stick attached.
Importing the file will save it to the VYT300C.
