General Information
1-20 CADJET 2
CARRIAGE The electromechanical assembly which carries the four ink
Cartridges across the media. The PCB on the Carriage
contains the decoding circuits to fire the ink nozzles and
determine carriage location.
CARRIAGE AXIS The plot area measured parallel to the platen; that is, the
Y-Axis or Horizontal Axis.
CARTRIDGE The plastic housing containing the ink and the ink nozzles.
Two Cartridges are mounted on the plotter Carriage.
CENTRONICS A parallel interface standard .
CONFIGURATION The way that the computer and plotter are interconnected
and set up to operate as a system.

It forms the "brains" of the system, usually called the
"computer."
DATA The term used to denote any or all facts, numbers, letters,
and other characters used in information transfer.
DEADBAND The term when used in the physical or mechanical sense is
"lost motion." It results from a number of accumulated
effects, such as friction, pulley and belt backlash, electrical
losses, finite position errors from digital encoders, and low
servo gain.
DEFAULT A value supplied by the internal firmware which is assumed
to be the desired or common response for the plotter. This
value may be changed by the user through the use of the
front panel display buttons.
DIAGNOSTICS A set of firmware instructions for the detection and isolation
of plotter malfunctions.
