COMMON INTERFACE NOTICE
All Rottler machines using Direct Motion technology share a common control interface. This allows for a
better environment for programing machine functions across a wide range of different machines. This also
allows for easier deployment in shops already using Rottler Direct Motion machines.
Because of the common interface some machines may have buttons and menu tabs that may not be
applicable to the machine that is being used. If the buttons or menu tabs are not mentioned in the control
definitions section of the manual, they will not be used in machine operation.
Master Power On/Off Switch
This switch is located on the main electrical control enclosure on back of the machine. The switch must
be in the off position before opening the rear enclosure door.
When first applying power to the machine the computer will need to boot up. Be patient, it will take
several minutes to complete booting. The Rottler program will not automatically start. Double tap the
Rottler_WPF icon on the screen to start Rottler.
When turning off the main power to the machine there is a specific procedure to follow so as not to
damage the computer. The computer must shut down its internal systems before main power is removed
from it.
Press the “Start” button in the left-hand side of the Start Bar. This will bring up the “Start Menu”. Press
the “Shutdown” line at the bottom of the Start Menu. This will bring up a Pop Up menu, make sure that
“shut down computer” is selected and press “OK”.
This will shut down the computer. It is now OK to turn Main Power off to the machine.
