Useful Function
Command Switching
• Changing the setting value will clear the data in the receiver buffer.
• With a large size of data, the [AUTO] mode may not function normally. In that case, change the setting
to MGL - Ic1 or MGL-IIc.
• Once the plotter receives data from the computer with [AUTO] selected, the display panel indicates the
recognized command and the plotter stars cutting. The display panel may continue indicating a
command name or display [ERR16 UTO I/F] if the command cannot be recognized automatically. In
such a case, change the command setting to MGL-I c1 or the MGL- IIc to perform normal cutting.
• The recognized command by [AUTO] will be effective until the data clear ( P.3-25) is executed or
sheet setting is performed again.
Step Size
Some applications (especially the old ones) output only data with different unit from the basic resolution. In
such a case, you can change the setting value of this plotter to allow cutting in correct size.

Dummy
cutting
When this is set to “ON,” the blade

direction before starting cutting,
which allows dummy cutting.

This is to perform dummy cutting every time
the tool and cutting conditions are changed.
OFF This is not to perform dummy cutting.

This is to set the types of sheet
according to the sheet you use.
Standard
This is to be set when you use the regular
sheet.
Heavy
This is to be set when you use heavier sheet
than the regular one.
(But this reduces the cutting highest speed
down to 20cm/s.)
Compens
