    1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

    1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

    1.1 Special Features

    • High-speed, high-quality plotting

    A digital servo drive system and a 32-bit CPU combine to produce detailed plots with smooth curves at a

    maximum plotting speed of 700 mm/s (in all directions) and a mechanical resolution of 0.005 mm.

    • Various functions ensure clearly-defined plots

    A wide variety of functions come standard to ensure clearly-defined plots, including the Auto Pen Cap

    function which prevents pens at the pen station from drying up when not in use and a mechanical soft-landing

    mechanism that extends the pen's lifetime while providing a quieter working environment. The plotting speed

    and pen force most suitable for the pen type being used can be easily selected from the control panel.

    • Upright installation possible

    To conserve space, the plotter can be mounted on a pair of stands (provided as a standard accessory) for

    installation at a 60˚ angle.

    • Interface conditions are easily set

    The interface mode (RS-232C serial or Centronics parallel or USB-compatible) is automatically selected

    when the plotter is connected to a computer via the respective interface connector.

    If the plotter is set to Auto RS-232C mode, you just need to send plot data from the computer; the RS-232C

    settings are automatically selected so no bothersome settings are required.

    • Interactive operation

    Various functions can be set interactively by using the panel keys according to messages and prompts

    appearing on the display.

    • Vector sorting function

    This function speeds up plotting by minimizing the distance the pen travels in raised status from the end point

    of one line to the starting point of the next line.

    • Pen sorting function

    To speed up plotting by reducing the number of pen exchanges required, this function reorganizes the

    sequence in which plotting is performed so that each color is completely plotted before selecting the next

    pen.

    6.7 Using the Test Modes

    6.7.1 Self Test

    Your plotter comes with a self-test mode, which enables the plotter to check its own functions, without

    necessarily being connected to the computer.

    A correctly drawn test pattern signifies that all of the functions of the plotter (excluding the interface functions)

    have been tested and found normal. Be sure to run this self-test before connecting the plotter to the

    computer.

    Procedure

    (1) Check that the POWER switch is off and that pens are mounted in the pen station.

    (2) Turn on the POWER switch while holding down the LEFT ARROW POSITION key.

    The plotter is initialized.

    The prompts below are consecutively displayed.

    SelfTest Mode

    Set Paper!

    (3) After initialization has been completed, place a sheet of paper on the writing panel.

    Press the CHART HOLD key to secure the sheet. The prompt below is displayed.

    PressEnt key

    (4) Press the ENTER key to draw the self-test pattern.

    The plotter repeatedly plots the same pattern until you cancel the self-test mode.

    To temporarily stop plotting, press the PAUSE key.

    To cancel the self-test mode, press the CANCEL key to stop plotting and then turn off the plotter.

    6.7.2 Character Dump Mode

    This mode allows experienced users to detect the cause of communication problems between the plotter

    and the computer. In Character Dump mode, the plotter produces an exact printout of the codes it receives,

    printing character data as ASCII codes and the non-character (control) data as two-digit hexadecimal values

    (e.g., 0A: Line Feed, 0D: Carriage Return).

    Procedure

    (1) Mount a pen in the pen station’s Pen 1 position.

    (2) Place a sheet of paper on the writing panel.

    (3) Hold down the DOWN ARROW POSITION key while you turn on the plotter.

    The plotter is initialized.

    CharDump Mode

    (4) Secure the paper.

    The prompt below is displayed to prompt you to press the CHART HOLD key.

    Set Paper!

    (5) Once the paper is secured, the PROMPT lamp on the plotter blinks.

    The prompt below is displayed.

    PressENT Key

    (6) Press the ENTER key to enter the Character Dump Mode.

    The plotter prints “** DUMP MODE (V*.** GL) **” on the paper and then awaits data from the computer.

    The message below briefly reappears on the display.

    CharDump Mode

    (7) When the computer runs an application program and outputs the data to the plotter, it starts printing the

    received data in ASCII format.

    (8) To exit the Character Dump Mode, turn off the plotter and then turn it back on using only the POWER

    switch.

    6.7.3 Debug Mode

    This mode is used to locate programming errors in your application program.

    When the plotter is in Debug Mode, its buffer size is reduced to permit easier detection of the section of the

    program that is causing the plotting error.

    Procedure

    (1) Mount a pen in the pen station’s Pen 1 position.

    (2) Place a sheet of paper on the writing panel.

    (3) Hold down the ENTER key while you turn on the plotter.

    The plotter is initialized.

    Debug Mode

    (4) Secure the paper.

    The prompt below is displayed for a few seconds to prompt you to press the CHART HOLD key.

    Set Paper!

    The prompt below is displayed

    Ready

    (5) The plotter is now in the Debug Mode.

    (6) Run the target program at the computer for output to the plotter.

    The message DEBUG MODE is displayed for a few seconds.

    In this mode, the plotter’s buffer memory is reduced to the following sizes:

    • In RS-232C mode : 256 bytes

    • In Centronics mode : 10 bytes

    (7) To exit the Debug Mode, turn off the plotter and then turn it back on using only the POWER switch.

    HINT: When using the RS-232C interface, the timing of data transmission varies with the selected

    handshake mode as follows.

    • During hardwire handshaking:

    The ER (DTR) signal line goes off when the available space in the buffer drops to 64 bytes.

    It goes on when the available space in the buffer rises to 128 bytes of data.

    • During Xon/Xoff handshaking:

    Xoff status is entered when the available space in the buffer drops to 32 bytes.

    Xon status is entered when the available space in the buffer rises to 128 bytes of data.

    NOTE: After the plotter is turned off, Debug mode is not resumed when only the ENTER key is

    pressed.

    The Debug mode cannot be used with the USB interface.

    POSITIONXY ALARM

    This message appears when, for some reason, the current pen position

    is invalid. In this case, turn the plotter off and then back on again.

    8.2 GP-GL Command Errors

    In GP-GL command mode, the plotter displays the error messages below if an error occurs for which

    masking of the corresponding Error bit in the STATUS byte has been disabled using the ˝ command.

    Displayed message Cause

    E1.COMM ERR

    A command error occurs if a hexadecimal code from 60H to 7EH is

    processed as a command character. This message may also appear if

    the RS-232C interface conditions are improperly set or if the program

    being run at the computer was not written using GP-GL commands.

    E4.PARA OV

    When a command specifying coordinate values is being processed, a

    parameter overflow error occurs if a numeric parameter exceeds the

    “Parameter Range”.

    E5.I/O ERR

    An input/output error occurs during the transfer of data via the interface.

    With the RS-232C interface, this message indicates that the parity or

    data length may be improperly set. Check your interface conditions once

    more.

    Cancelling an error status

    You can cancel an error status using any of the methods below, thereby setting the status of the

    corresponding Error bit to zero.

    (1) Execute a READ STATUS WORD 1 or READ STATUS WORD 3 command.

    (2) Press the ENTER key. (Effective only in case of a data format error.)

    Note: If a data format error has occurred, performing either Method (1) or (2) above while

    execution of the next command is temporarily suspended enables that command to be

    executed.

    (3) Initialize the plotter.

    (4) Execute the INTERFACE CLEAR command.

    Note: Method (3) or (4) clears all the data in the plotter’s buffer memory.
