driver versions. Model numbers for template maker and
Magnetic sign cutters are in the 2000 range. GT cutters do not
have 2000 added to model number. Check the model number
displayed on the remote panel setup -> main menu.
Template cuts off by small amounts or different amounts each
time.
Contour cuts are wrong
size.
If you are using origin only or origin skew no scaling is done to
image received. In this case you must calibrate the cutter to
your printer rather than a ruler. You do this by printing a large
rectangle on your printer. Then cut the same size rectangle. For
x and y drawn use printed size rather than a ruler as drawn or
desired size.
If you are using origin scale, or origin skew scale then the size of
the cut is change by the x or y sensor size parameter in the line
sensor menu. See Smart Mark Setup section.
Labels or contour cuts are
cutting in the wrong spot
Verify you created job correctly.
Origin target is at minimum x and maximum y of drawing.
The scan area contains only target and background with no stray
marks that could be seen as targets.
Verify printer properties are correct
Rotation is set correctly. Target cut should be in same corner on
preview as selected origin corner.
Find origin property is set to Origin only or other advanced op-
tion.
Verify sensor settings have not been lost in the remote panel se-
lect setup -> line sensor menu.
Verify x sensor offset is about 0.75 inch and y sensor offset is
about –0.1 inch
If your job is off by only a little bit (less than 1/8 inch (3mm))
and is same for every frame you can measure this error and cor-
rect your x and y sensor offset by the amount of the error you
measure.
Verify scan length is the same as the length of the side of the tar-
get
Verify the scan offsets = ½ of the length of the side of the target
Verify the Scan Velocity is either 1 or 2.
Verify the space between jobs in the line sensor menu is zero.
Verify Skew target is at minimum x, maximum y of artwork.
Verify Scale target is at maximum x, minimum y of artwork.
Target errors tar1, tar2,
tar3, tar4
These errors indicate that the target scanner did not find the tar-
get.
If tar1 on first frame:
o
Verify that you positioned red led pointer to right rear
corner of target
