S Class 2 cutter Service manual
Basic Operation 4-4
4.2.1.8 Hardware test
The hardware test submenu is used to test all hardware of the cutter. During this test certain
actions will be asked. This test needs the USB interface connected to a computer. The roll-up
is also needed.
4.2.2 Settings
This bundles all the settings of the S Class 2 cutters.
4.2.2.1 Tool Selection
The Tool submenu is used to select the default tool at power up.
NOTE: Do not forget to check and or recalibrate the tool settings when a tool has
been changed (see section 3.3.1). Also OPOS calibration has to be redone (see section
3.5.3).
4.2.2.2 Velocity
Changes the tool velocity (the combined parameter).
4.2.2.3 Calibrate Knife
The purpose of the knife calibration routine is to detect and, if need be, to correct problems
related with the concentricity of the tangential knife blade.
NOTE: Knife calibration should be done each time the knife is changed and should be
checked if the knife shows signs of wear.
Knife calibration errors may be due to any of the following causes:
Horizontal misalignment. The knife tip deviates from its theoretical longitudinal
center. This error can be corrected by adjusting the longitudinal parameter.
Vertical misalignment. The knife tip deviates from its theoretical lateral center. This
error can be corrected by adjusting the longitudinal parameter.
4.2.2.4 FlexCut:
FlexCut can be set to OFF, to Mode 1 or Mode 2. When the cutter is set to mode 1 or mode 2,
it will alternately cut a certain length with full pressure, and a certain length with reduced
pressure. The feature FlexCut offers the advantage that it cuts completely through the
material, yet allowing the material to stay together by means of the small media bridges.
