COMMON INTERFACE NOTICE
All Rottler machines using Direct Motion technology share a common control interface. This allows for a
better environment for programing machine functions across a wide range of different machines. This also
allows for easier deployment in shops already using Rottler Direct Motion machines.
Because of the common interface some machines may have buttons and menu tabs that may not be
applicable to the machine that is being used. If the buttons or menu tabs are not mentioned in the control
denitions section of the manual, they will not be used in machine operation.
