KEY/FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
SWIVEL KNIFE Key
Press the SWIVEL KNIFE key to select knife mode. When the swivel knife
mode is selected, the light over the SWIVEL KNIFE key is on. If the
tangential knife mode is desired, the light must be off.
INIT KNIFE Key
Use the INIT KNIFE key to initialize the swivel knife so that the blade faces 0°.
Press the INIT KNIFE key after loading the swivel knife and selecting swivel
knife mode.
CAUTION: Pressing INIT KNIFE when in swivel knife mode lowers the
knife into the vinyl and cuts a very short line. It is important to have
material loaded in the plotter so that the knife does not cut the drum
surface.
RUN SINGLE Key
Plot
Press RUN SINGLE to plot single jobs. The GS750
plus
returns to the off-line
status (as at power-up) after each job and waits for the operator to press RUN
SINGLE key again to plot the next job.
Controlled Stop
Press either RUN key to stop plotting at the next logical break in the program
and check current job.
Do not use slew keys or the orientation for the current
job will be lost.
RUN CONT Key
Plot
Press RUN CONT to plot two or more jobs continuously. The GS750
plus
plots
one job after the other without pausing between them and remains on-line
until either RUN key is pressed.
Controlled Stop
Press either RUN key to stop plotting at the next logical break in the program
and check current job.
Do not use slew keys or the orientation for current job
will be lost.
Slew Keys (Arrow
Keys)
The arrow and SLOW keys do not function while a job is plotting, during an
error condition, or while a RUN light is on, even if the plotter is idle.
Press arrow keys to position carriage and material between jobs:
! Up and down arrow keys move the carriage spindle between the rear and
the front of the plotter.
! Left and right arrow keys rotate the drum and feed material through the
plotter or back toward the roll holder.
Slow Key
Hold the SLOW key while simultaneously pressing any Arrow key. This slows
carriage movement for exact positioning.
RESET Key
Emergency Stop
Press RESET key to stop GS750
plus
operation, clear the current job from the
buffer, and return the plotter to off-line status.
Clear
Press the RESET key to stop the error signal after a power-up or plotting
failure. (See Error Conditions Section.)
Access
Hold the RESET key at power-up to access additional diagnostics. (See
Special Diagnostics Section.)
