5.1 Description of Special Functions A
The cutting plotter is provided with the special functions described below. These functions are specified
only in special situations, and are not normally used.
■
Enabling/Disabling the “:” and “;” Commands (when the COMMAND setting is GP-GL)
This function enables or disables the “:” and “;” commands when the COMMAND setting is GP-GL. If the
first part of the data is lost, these commands may be having an adverse effect. In this case, set this func-
tion to DISABLED (the default setting is ENABLED).
■
Moving the Pen While Raised or Lowered in Response to the “W” Command (when the
COMMAND setting is GP-GL)
This function selects whether, upon receipt of the “W” command for the drawing of arcs, the cutting plotter
moves the pen to the specified starting position, raised or in the pen status (raised or lowered) that was in
effect immediately prior to receipt of the “W” command.
When PEN DOWN is selected, the pen is moved to the starting position for the drawing of arcs in the pen
status (raised or lowered) that was in effect immediately prior to receipt of the “W” command.
When PEN UP is selected, the pen is moved to the starting position for the drawing of arcs in the raised
status. This setting is only effective if a cutter blade has been selected in the cutter-pen settings.
(The default setting is PEN UP.)
■
Model ID Response (when the COMMAND setting is HP-GL)
This function sets the response to the “OI” command when the COMMAND setting is HP-GL.
When 7550 is set, the “OI” command response is 7550.
When 7586 is set, the “OI” command response is 7586.
(The default setting is 7550.)
■
SETTING PRIORITY
This function sets whether the cutting plotter places priority on the cutting conditions specified through
command input from the computer or through manual settings (on the cutting-plotter control panel).
When MANUAL is selected, cutting is performed using the cutting conditions set at the control panel, and
cutting conditions sent from the computer are ignored.
When PROGRAM is selected, cutting is performed using the cutting conditions specified in a received cut-
ting-condition command. If no commands are received, cutting is performed using the cutting conditions
set at the control panel.
(The default setting is MANUAL.)
■
Blade-Tip Initial Position Setting
The cutter blade is placed on the medium to orient it after the power is turned on or the cutter-pen condi-
tions are set. This is referred to as “initializing” the cutter blade.
This function sets the “Blade-Tip Initial Position” for this operation.
When 2 mm BELOW is selected, initial blade control is performed at a position 2 mm below the cutting
start position.
When OUTSIDE is selected, initial blade control is performed outside of the effective cutting/plotting area.
(The default setting is 2 mm BELOW.)
