3. Managing Media List
In the main screen ( page 9), click [Edit Media List] to open the [Edit Media List] screen.
In the [Edit Media List] screen, you can create a new tool condition and delete, replicate,
or edit the existing tool conditions. You can also load settings from the plotter or assign a
Condition No. (1 to 8) to a condition. The condition with a Condition No. can be called in the
plotter.
You can save a tool condition as a file to any location on your computer (Export) or load a
setting file that have been saved (Import).
CAUTION
• Although installing the controller also installs a standard media list (a list of tool conditions),
optimal settings may differ depending on the use environment, the types of media, applications,
and other factors. Be sure to run cutting tests and set the optimal tool condition before
performing actual cutting.
• On Windows Vista/7/8/8.1/10, the media list is saved for each logged-on user. If you want to use
the same media list as before, log on as the same user.
Reference
Up to 100 tool conditions can be saved to the list. If you try to save tool conditions that exceed the
limit of 100, a message will appear. In that case, you should delete unnecessary setting files.

Close

Media Name
The controller manages tool conditions by using media names. This is because the media to be used
determines the tool condition. Note that, however, optimal condition settings for the same media may
differ depending on the use environment or the shape of the image to be plotted. Therefore, saving a
tool condition under a file name that consist of the media name and additional description by which the
variation of the settings can be understood may help to find the settings that are close to the optimal
condition.
