V4.0
Keyboard panel operating detail
When you turn on the plotter's power, after for a moment, the carriage will
move to right side itself. And the green LED on keyboard will light. The LCD
monitor will show the data of speed and pressure. This process is an
initialization of the plotter. In this keyboard, four arrow keys will be used as
speed's key and pressure's key. Those arrow keys have different functions
in different mode. Plotter has two working mode:
Online mode:
Receive the data: when you turn on the plotter's power, the green LED on
keyboard will light after a while, we call this mode "ONLINE". On "ONLINE"
mode, the plotter can receive the order from computer. (Notice: if you want
to output the data to plotter later, please must return to this mode).
Change speed: on "ONLINE" mode, if you want plotter's work quickly, you
can press "S+" key; if you want slowly you can press "S-" key. (Remark: if
the work you want to cut is big, you can select quickly or slowly; if the work
you want to cut is small, you must select slowly. The smaller the less slowly,
because slower means more accuracy).
Change pressure: on "ONLINE" mode, if you want cutting pressure is
heavier, you can press "P+" key; if you want slighter you can press "P-" key.
(Remark: if your cutting paper is thick, you can select heavier; if your cutting
paper is thin, you need slighter, the thinner the slighter; if the blade is old,
you can set the pressure to heavy; if you use new blade, you must change
the pressure very slight, because heavy pressure cause the blade very easy
to break.
Offline mode:
If the red LED on keyboard lights, we called "OFFLINE" mode. On this mode,
you can press any arrow key continuously to move the carriage or paper to
everywhere you want it go. Later press "OK" key, a new origin will be defined.
(By the way, machine's origin is the same as the computer file's origin).
Plotter cutting test:
On "OFFLINE" mode, you can press "TEST" key and the plotter will cut a
design itself. According to this, you can change the speed or pressure to find
out the best state of the machine.
Reset the plotter:
When the plotter is working wrong by other problems or you want to stop
cutting immediately, you can press "RESET" key one time to stop the cutting
work. All the data will be cleaned and the carriage will move to the right side.
