SummaCut Series Cutters User’ s Manual
Operation 2-10
2.2.18. TOOL COMMAND
The TOOL COMMAND is used to determine whether the DM/PL and HP-GL
pen/knife-select commands (the P and SP commands respectively) are
ignored or accepted.
When the TOOL COMMAND option is set to “ACCEPT”, the P or SP commands
will change the selected tool in the cutter according to the suffix that follows
the pen/knife command. However, the pen must already have been inserted
before because the cutter will not stop when receiving this command. When
the TOOL COMMAND option is set to “IGNORE” the pen/knife commands are
ignored.
The default setting is “ACCEPT”.
2.2.19. LOAD ON W CMD
The LOAD ON W CMD parameter will only be displayed if the PLOT LANGUAGE
is set to DM/PL (See Paragraph 2.2.9.). The LOAD ON W CMD determines, when
receiving the DM/PL Window-command (W-command), whether aside from
the scaling function, media is loaded or not. Besides scaling, the W-command
is also very useful when cutting long signs. With the W-command, media
loading will go smoother. Sufficient media will be pulled off the roll at once.
Even when AUTOLOAD is off, there is no need anymore to unroll the media
manually.
2.2.20. FLEX-CUT
FLEX-CUT 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 one length with full pressure, and one
length with reduced pressure. The feature FLEX-CUT offers the advantage that it
cuts completely through the material, yet allowing the material to stay
together by means of the small media bridges.
MODE 1 is the quickest mode, but it is less precise because the pressure
changes during the cutting. MODE 2 is a lot slower, but at the same time it is
much more precise, as the cutter stops at every change of pressure.
2.2.21. CUT LENGTH
This parameter determines the length that is cut with full pressure. By clicking on
the ‘Cut Test Pattern’ button, the FLEX-CUT test pattern will be cut.
