AUTO/MANUAL
switch:
Position
of
AUTO/MANUAL
switch
has
impact
against
laser
head
behaviour.
AUTO
‐
laser
head
moves
to
its
starting
position
(left
side
of
the
drum)
MANUAL
‐
laser
head
moves
1
cm
to
the
right
only
Before
first
data
plotting,
check
the
AUTO/MANUAL
switch
and
set
it
to
AUTO
position.
When
you
start
the
plotter,
laser
head
will
move
to
its
starting
position
(left
side),
after
that
you
can
start
data
plotting
(laser
head
will
move
from
left
to
right
side
during
the
plotting).
When
the
plotting
is
finished
and
the
switch
will
be
in
AUTO
position,
laser
head
will
move
back
to
its
starting
position
and
plotter
will
be
ready
again
for
plotting.
When
the
plotting
is
finished
and
the
switch
will
be
in
MANUAL
position,
laser
head
will
move
1
cm
to
the
right
only
and
plotter
will
be
ready
again
for
plotting.
AUTO
mode
is
suitable
for
single
data
plotting
in
the
whole
film
width.
MANUAL
mode
is
suitable
when
you
want
to
plot
2
(or
more)
data
‐
side
by
side
(in
drum
axis
direction).
After
first
data
plotting
laser
head
moves
little
to
the
right
only
(1
cm)
and
next
plotting
starts
from
this
position.
If
you
turn
power
on
after
film
is
loaded,
it
may
happen
that
laser
light
beam
flashes
shortly
on
the
film
at
the
moment
when
power
is
turned
on
and
electronic
circuitry
is
reset.
This
may
result
in
very
small
spot
on
the
film.

Place
and
tape
film
Lift
the
photoplotter
lid,
so
you
have
access
to
the
outer
surface
of
the
drum.
Rotate
drum
by
hand
(in
any
direction)
to
point
white
arrow
located
on
the
left
side
of
the
drum
to
white
arrow
located
on
the
left
side
of
drum
holder.
This
is
the
outgoing
position
of
the
drum
for
photo
‐
plotting.
The
left
top
corner
of
photo
‐
plotted
area
is
then
approximately
20
mm
from
the
left
edge
of
the
drum
on
the
horizontal
line
marked
by
white
arrow.
Place
film
on
the
drum
with
its
top
edge
approximately
20
mm
behind
the
white
mark
on
the
drum,
hold
it
firm
by
hand
and
fix
it
to
the
drum
by
means
of
a
masking
tape
along
the
top
edge.
Rotate
drum
by
one
hand
to
be
able
to
fix
film‘s
bottom
edge,
but
make
sure
film
is
tight
on
drum
surface.
After
film
is
fixed
to
its
position
on
the
drum,
rotate
drum
back
to
1st
initial
position
(both
white
arrows
point
to
each
other).
Close
the
lid.
NOTES:
It
is
a
matter
of
practice
to
fix
film
properly
on
the
drum
surface.
Films
used
in
this
photoplotter
are
sensitive
to
light
of
670
nm
(red
light).
When
working
with
film
(loading,
unloading,…)
use
light
dark
green
light.
It
is
recommended
to
use
dim
light
in
room
during
photo
‐
plotting.
Make
sure
there
are
no
other
sources
of
light
that
may
expose
film,
for
example
light
coming
from
monitor
screen,
when
loading
and
unloading
film.
The
film
manufacturer
can
recommend
proper
type
of
dark
room
safe
light
if
needed.
Transparent
films
must
be
mounted
with
emulsion
side
on
the
drum
surface.
(Film
in
rolls
used
for
image
setting
machines
has
emulsion
side
on
inner
side
and
therefore
it
is
easy
to
put
it
on
photoplotter
drum
properly).
Emulsion
side
of
the
film
has
light
grey
colour,
compare
with
dark
colour
of
the
other
side.
However,
films
made
for
laser
photo
‐
plotters,
like
DuPont
films,
which
have
a
special
anti
‐
reflection
coating
on
the
other
side
of
the
film,
cannot
be
plotted
with
emulsion
side
pointed
towards
drum
surface.
In
this
case
emulsion
side
must
be
on
outer
surface,
while
source
of
laser
light
may
need
to
be
re
‐
focused.
From
this
reason,
use
transparent
films,
otherwise
laser
light
focus
must
be
adjusted
–
contact
your
photoplotter
supplier
for
details.
