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 the main power to the machine off 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.
Note: The Rottler SG10A uses a touch screen for control and data transfer to the computer. Be
careful not to touch the screen until the machine has fully booted up and a Rottler screen is
showing. If the screen is touched prior to full boot –up it may activate a function or interfere with
proper boot-up.
Initialization Screen
The first screen to appear is the Rottler Manufacturing Start Up screen. Double click icon to start.
