Control Panel : - The control panel has 12 keys. All machine activity can be initiated from the control panel. This includes initiating remote mode for computer control, local mode for manual operation and menu mode. Display : - The 2x16 character display informs the user about the current status of the cutting process or about actions that need to be taken. Pinch roller lever arm : - This lever is used to raise and lower the pinch rollers. Pinch rollers : - The pinch rollers (one at each side) hold the media clamped between the rubber rollers and the media drive sleeves. The PC1500 unit is provided with an extra low pressure roller in the middle to keep the media flat. Media Drive Sleeves : - The media drive sleeves move the media only when the pinch rollers are in the down position. Sensors : - The sensors detect the presence of media to avoid damage to the cutting strip. Upon powering up the machine, they cause the media to move all the way to the front edge of the platen.

SUMMAPAINT CONTROL.
The SummaPaint Control Program for Windows is a tool to optimize the overall cutting and printing quality of your PC1500. For information on the installation or general set-up of this program, refer to the Readme.txt file on the installation disk. The SummaPaint Control program basically has the same functions as the control panel. It is up to the user to decide how he will work most efficiently. The users who work with the SummaPaint Control program will notice that it is a very powerful and practical tool. By clicking on the Menu button in the main SummaPaint Control window all the machine settings can be changed. Four different user configurations can be saved in the cutters memory. The selected configuration number is marked at the bottom of the menu window. These four configurations are maintained independently.

CLEANING
The CLEANING sub-menu is used to set the cleaning frequency of the cleaning procedure. While printing the print-carriage moves periodically to the service station to clean the print heads and to spit some ink out of all its nozzles to prevent blocking of the nozzles. It is advised to set the cleaning as low as possible to work faster and save some ink. In this way the reservoirs of the service station can be used longer before they need to be cleaned (see section 3). However if the cleaning frequency is to low, nozzles will block. The default setting is MEDIUM. Cleaning can be set to OFF, LOW, MEDIUM and HIGH.
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. The cutters LCD will, e.g. prompt the user with the following message: INSERT PEN when a P2 command is sent. When the TOOL COMMAND option is set to IGNORE, the pen/knife commands are ignored. On the LCD, the active setting is marked with an *. The default setting is ACCEPT.
LOAD ON W COMMAND
The LOAD ON W CMD submenu will only be displayed if the PLOT LANGUAGE is set to DM/PL (See Paragraph 1..). 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 Wcommand, 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.

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. Pressing the 1 key will activate the configuration menu, which allows you to set the cutting pressure and the cut length. 1. CUT LENGTH This parameter determines the length that is cut with full pressure. By pressing the 1 key, the FLEX-CUT test pattern will be cut. 2.

NOTE It is strongly recommended to produce a MENU PLOT hard copy each time you alter the cutter configuration. The resulting plot should be kept with the machines documentation in order to provide other users with details of the actual configurations of the unit.
CONFIDENCE CUT
The CONFIDENCE cut performs an electrical and mechanical test of the cutter to make sure that the cutter is fully operational. A media sheet of at least A3/A- size should be used for this plot.
DIN CUT
The DIN CUT also performs an electrical and mechanical test of the cutter, in order to check the cut quality but also provides the user with feedback on knife setting, knife pressure, knife offset and cutting depth. This cut is always run as a DIN A4 portrait/A-size image, regardless of the actual size of the media loaded. If the media loaded is smaller than DIN A4/A-size, part of the outer box will be clipped (not cut). This cut is always executed in the sequence prescribed by the ISO DIN standard.

Precautions
1. CAUTION 2. 3. THIS UNIT HAS MORE THAN ONE POWER SUPPLY CORD. DISCONNECT 2 POWER SUPPLY CORDS BEFORE SERVICING TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK Observe simple, common sense rules and procedures whilst servicing the unit. They include, but are not limited to the following: 1. Do not wipe or touch the cartridge head. The ink nozzles can be damaged. If the contacts of either the cartridge or flex are touched, then isopropyl alcohol is the proper cleaning fluid, because it doesnt leave residues. The base of the unit has been assembled on a fixture to assure straightness all along the y-axis. To keep this :DO NOT REMOVE THE SIDE PLATES NOR THE Y-GUIDING. Unplug the line cords and host cables before transporting the unit to other places. Reassemble ALL parts (screws, ferrite shield, etc.) to maintain EMI integrity, and guide the loose wires afterwards with tie-wrap in the same manner they were before Watch for sharp edges on the metal strips etc. When the covers are off or open: The printed circuits boards are electrostatically sensitive; use the proper handling techniques. Keep sensors and reflection plates free of scratches and dirt. Keep the guiding, at least dirtfree where the wheels of the carriage pass.

MEDIA CALIBRATION
CALIBRATION OF THE X-AXIS
The unit has to be recalibrated when : a drum has been replaced the camrollers have been replaced the PCB has been replaced or defaulted
!NOTE!
One of the characteristics of a drum driven machine is that different thickness of media give different results while calibrating in the xdirection. So if a high accuracy is needed, the unit has to be recalibrated when different thickness of material are used. However recalibrating is not needed for normal usage Calibration: Load media in the machine (the wider the media, the more accurate the calibration). Start the SsummaPaint Control program. Select calibration in the configuration menu. Select Calibrate x-axis.
Switch the machine on and off so that the new calibration parameters will come into effect (the borders will also be corrected).

CARTRIDGE CALIBRATION
!NOTE!
Although the cartridge calibration is already described in section 1.8. follows a short explanation on how to calibrate the cartridges with the SummaPaint Control program. It is recommended to do the tests with this program instead of using the internal tests. The cartridge calibration has to be done when: Each time the cartridges have been out of their holders. The controlbox has been replaced (the values are stored in the control box) The cutterhead has been replaced (only the print/cut calibration) The cutterhead has been replaced Calibration and selftest Load media. Put the cartridges in place and insert a tool in the cutterhead. Start the test Tune Heads on the SummaPaint Control program.

When all nozzles are working fine, the four slanting lines will be continuous. If one colour line is interrupted, one ore more nozzles will be blocked. Repeat this test a second time. If some nozzles are still blocked, the cartridge needs to be cleaned. Start the Alignment Pattern test
After printing the colour calibration test you can change the values for the horizontal and vertical offset of the printed colour with reference to the black. Click on Check Pattern to verify the alignment.
Start de Offset Test. Check whether the lines are smooth. Correct if necessary.
Make sure the installed tool in the cutterhead is mounted correctly. Start the Print & Cut. The printed and cut out pattern depends on the way the tuning of the heads test was started up. If the box was normally clicked then the following pattern is shown. Check which pattern is correct and fill in the values. If the box was clicked while holding down the Shift key then the following pattern is shown.
Result :
If the normal test was not sufficient then this test is necessary. Now the offset can be changed drastically. One step is 1/300 of an inch Start the test again to check the result.

OPOS CALIBRATION
NORMAL CALIBRATION
Normal calibration of the OPOS system is explained in section 1.6.6. However, when this doesnt work there is an extra calibration method for fine tuning.
FINE TUNING
The Opos system has to be fine tuned when: the normal calibration didnt do the job. the Opos system has been removed from the head. The markers are extremely glossy (sometimes with photoquality with thermal wax transfer). Calibration: Load vinyl. Make sure the Opos system is perpendicular on the media. Go to the internal test - system test-optical sensor. Remove the black piece of vinyl from the Opos sensor. Turn the left pot meter 15 turns CCW and the 8 turns CW . Place the sensor top above a piece of white matt media Turn the right pot meter CCW until the LCD display shows a value higher than 300. Then turn CW until the value doesnt decrease anymore and turn 1/8 of a turn CCW. Place the sensor above a glossy piece of black material. Turn the left pot meter CCW until the display doesnt increase anymore (more than 8 turns is useless). This value is usually between 1950 and 2000. Continue with the normal calibration.
!NOTE!
When the OPOS system still fails to work properly, do the fine tuning on the media giving trouble. Change the matt white media with the troublesome media and change glossy black media with the marker on the troublesome media. If everything else fails just try to make the difference, between the readout above the markers and the media, more then 800. The left pot meter changes the gain and the right pot meter changes the threshold level between black and white.

If the machine doesnt sense the position of the camrollers anymore, follow the following procedure: 1. Power the machine up without any media. 2. Go to the test CAM SENSOR 3. Lower the camrollers, put the sensor of the cuttinghead above a reflection part of a camroller. 4. Lower or raise the sensor until you get a value higher than 300. 5.

MOTOR HOT
Cause: Heavy media can overload the motors, especially the X-motor. The P on the PCB calculates the power dissipated in the motors. When this dissipation becomes too high, the message MOTOR HOT appears. This is not a fatal error. After a while this message will disappear and the machine will continue its operation. Action: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Wait until the motor has cooled down to an acceptable level. Lower the speed using the menu and use a lower knife pressure if possible. Use lighter or smaller media. Check the cam rollers, replace any damaged cam rollers. Call CalComp for assistance. A system register may have changed the default value. Check whether the drive drum is turning smoothly (first switch the machine off and place the cam rollers in the up-position). Replace motor and/or drum.
ERROR IN X-AXIS
Cause: The drum motor cannot move to the required position. This is a fatal error. It can only be solved by turning the power off and then on again. This error is usually caused by a media crash in the machine. Action: 7. Remove the crashed media and restart the machine. Should this happen rather frequently, the cause can be : knife depth or pressure is not well set. bad tracking because an unstabilised media type is used. bad tracking because the humidity is too high or too low. bad tracking because an unapproved type of media is used. the media hit something on the floor while cutting. the media shows already different tracks, so that the media does not know which track to follow. 8. Lower the speed of the media. 9. Check whether the drive drum turns smoothly (first turn the power off and place the cam rollers in the up-position). 10.If the error in the x-axis happens at start-up, check the x-axis motor, the encoder connectors and the cables. 11.Replace the X-motor encoder. 12.Replace the PCB. 13.
