Operation 35
SLEW KEYS
Use the left and right slew keys to unroll material before plotting, to
position the tool for plotting, and to position the carriage and material
between jobs.
Press the up or down slew keys to move the carriage between the rear
and the front of the plotter.
Press the left or right slew keys to rotate the drum and feed material
through the plotter or back toward the roll holder.
SLOW KEY
Use the SLOW key to access slow slew mode. Slow slew mode moves
the platen or tool one step at a time, which simplifies precise registration
of artwork produced by the GERBER EDGE. In normal or slow
mode, the platen or tool move continuously as long as the arrow keys are
pressed.
To use the slow slew feature
1. Press the SLOW key to select slow slew mode. You will hear a
single beep indicating the plotter is in slow slew mode. When you
press an arrow key, the platen or tool will move a single step at a
time. When you press an arrow key, the drum or carriage will move
at a very slow speed as long as you hold the key down.
2. Press the SLOW key again to return to normal mode. You will hear
two beeps indicating the plotter is in normal slew mode. When you
press an arrow key, the platen or tool will move continuously as long
as you hold the key down.
Note: The arrows and SLOW keys do not function during the following
conditions:
! while a job is plotting
! during an error condition
! if a RUN light is on, even if the plotter is idle.
