Open/close
pen station
Before using the
EMS-3
, insert the plotter pen with the desired tip width into the pen
station.
Important:
Only plotter pens of the types shown here may be used as
the sealing system is designed specifically for these plotter
pens. Using other plotter pens and writing instruments may
damage the device.
To insert plotter pens into the pen station, press the
Penstation
open/close
key. This is only possible when the system is in stop mode.
When the pen station has been opened, you can insert the plotter pens into the
corresponding storage holders and then re-close the pen station by pressing the
open/close
key again.
Please note:
The pen station will close automatically after 2 minutes or power off as there is a
danger the pens will dry out. You can leave plotter pens for the daily work in the pen
station because the optimised seal largely prevents pens from drying out. If the
storage inserts become soiled over time you can replace them. The procedure for
changing the storage inserts can be found in the accessories section.
Please note:
Should you wish to use other plotter pens with HP fixing system, you must insert them
directly into the clip adaptor of the pen holder and ensure that they are not stored in
the pen station.
Please note:
The plotter always re-calibrates prior to first plotting.
Please note:
In the engraving mode the key is used to move the tool to the postition of the
indication for standardizing the engraving needle, zero setting.
Stop

If the
stop
-key is activated while the plotter is in action, the job will pause
immediately, the plotter pen brought back to the pen station and the plotter will move
into the top right-hand corner. The red light will signal the interruption. Pressing the
key again the plotter will continue with the job. The red light will go out.
Cursor
