Running an AAS Offset Test

The AAS sensor's reading of crop marks may be out of position if the cutting carriage sustained a strong impact. If this is the case, send the AAS offset test file data to the machine from a computer on which File Uploader is installed and run an AAS offset test.

MEMO The blade offset value is set for the AAS offset test. Enter the offset value according to the blade being used.
Procedure
  1. Print any data stored in the downloaded AAS offset test file with a high-precision printer.
    • AASII_X_Y_Offset_Caberation_A4.eps (A4 size)
    • AASII_X_Y_Offset_Caberation_600_600.eps (Default settings data recommended for test use)
  2. Turn on the power to the machine.
  3. Load the material printed in step 1 in the machine.
    Ensure that the material is loaded with the crop mark origin at the front right.
