5.2 AAS Calibrating the System
The AAS system has a calibration procedure to ensure maximum accuracy. To operate the AAS,
please first review the following media feeding instructions. (Refer to 4.1 Media Loading.)
5.2.1 Media Calibration
Media Calibration is to ensure that the sensor will be able to recognize the registration
marks. The factory default works on a wide range of materials. However, certain types of
materials require calibration to achieve good results. Media calibration adjusts the media
feeding according to media type for better accuracy during cutting.
„
When to use
We suggest white media for best cutting result. It is not necessary to perform media
calibration every time unless the registration marks on the printed media become
undetectable in AAS sensing process.
5.2.2 AAS Calibration
The first registration mark has a different design in order for AAS auto-detection to
identify the origin. The following must be known for registration marks to be read
automatically.
„ Type of media
„ Registration mark pattern
„
Reading range required for detection the registration marks
„ Position for registration marks and medium
The registration marks have to be:
„ Created by cutting software or CorelDRAW plug-in
„ Black in color
„ “L” Mark Length: 10mm~50mm(.39in~1.97in), suggested 25 mm (about 1in)
„ “L” Mark Thickness: 1mm~2mm, suggested 1 mm
„ Margin: 1mm~50mm(.04in~1.97in), suggested 5 mm (about .2in)
The cutter cannot detect the marks when:
„ Cutter carriage is not located near the outside area of first mark (See the picture
in page 5-7 for auto-detecting area of first mark.)
„ Medium thickness is more than 0.8mm
„ Transparent medium is used
„ Non-monochrome drawing. The marks can’t be read if is printed on colored
medium
„ Dirty or creased medium surface
