Special Precautions: Notes on Use
15
• Prior to cutting, ensure that no obstacles are
placed in the vicinity of the pen carriage or
loaded media.
CAUTION: Impeded movement of the pen carriage or loaded media may prevent accurate
cutting, or may trigger the position alarm to reset the system or system over-
load. An overloaded system triggers the product’s circuit protection. Should the
system overload, causing the power to shut down, turn off the power switch
and unplug the power cord. Wait 5 to 10 minutes then reconnect the power
cord and turn on the system. For more information, see Test Modes and Trou-
bleshooting.
To prevent malfunctions of the plot-
ter’s sensors, position the plotter at
least one meter (3 feet) away from flu-
orescent lamps, electric lamps and
any other source of indoor illumina-
tion.
Notes on Use
Be sure to observe the following on the use of your plotter:
CAUTION: Make sure your computer and power sources are adequately grounded (the
RS-232 interface cable should meet the CCITT V24, EIA RS-232 standards.
Graphtec’s RS-232 serial interface cable conforms to the EIA standard). Inade-
quate grounding may result in severe damage to your plotter or computer and
constitute misuse of the plotter.
• Never lubricate the plotter mechanisms, this
will result in plotter malfunction.
