Basic Operations
Cutting (plotting)
You can start cutting (plotting) after completion of setting up a tool, a sheet and the tool conditions.
Setting the origin
The origin is a reference point for the cutting (plotting) data.
When the origin is changed, set the new origin before starting cutting (plotting).
1
Move the carriage to a point at which
the new origin is to be set.
• : Moves the carriage to the right.
: Moves the carriage to the left.
: Feeds the sheet to the rear of the plotter.
: Feeds the sheet to the front of the plotter.
• Every time you press the key, the tool will move up and down alternately.This
helps you to set the origin at a correct position.
2
Press the key to register the
origin.
• The display panel will show the effective cutting
area first and then the tool conditions.
• Check the following settings before cutting (plotting).
Setting of the origin ( P.2-21)
Setting of the command origin ( P.3-69)
Switching between commands ( P.3-69)
Priority of commands ( P.3-69)
Setting of the maximum size response value ( P.3-69)
• Change the origin before cutting the next data; otherwise, cutting will be performed over the
previous data.
