4. Setting up the Plotter EMS - eco
LOCATION
A dry, dust-free room is the ideal environment for the plotter. If possible, do not install
the device in damp or very dusty areas. Do not expose the system to direct sunlight.
Please ensure that the connections on the right-hand side of the device are accessible
at all times. Position the EMS-eco firmly on the work surface where it is to be used,
ensuring it is level.
Please ensure that the writing arm can move freely and is not obstructed by other
objects.
CONNECTIONS
Plug the device into a correctly installed mains socket using the power supply included
with the product.
The power supply features a variable AC input voltage of 100-240V~50-60Hz.
The power connection can be replaced by way of adapter plugs.
Plug the connector from the output cable on the power supply into the top right-hand
side of the plotter.
Then hook up the device using the provided USB cable. The respective ports are
located on the right-hand side of the EMS-eco.

5. Operation
Once you have installed the EMS-eco and connected the power supply and data
cable, you can switch the plotter on.
Important:
Before switching the device on please ensure that there are no objects on the
writing/plotting area which might prevent the writing arm from moving freely.
All settings and commands are entered using the control panel.

activity
ON/OFF buttons
The ON/OFF buttons are used to activate and deactivate the device. When the plotter
is switched on, the writing arm moves to the top right-hand corner of the labelling area
and auto calibration takes place. The green light comes on when the system is ready
for use and to receive data from the PC.
Clear buffer
If the EMS-eco contains data the yellow light will come on. You can delete this data by
pressing the 'Clear buffer' key.
To do this the system must be in stop mode (red light on).

Stop/view key
If the 'stop/view' key is activated while the plotter is in action, the job will pause
immediately and the plotter pen will move into the top right-hand corner. The red light
will signal the interruption. Pressing the key again will calibrate the writing arm and the
plotter will continue with the job. The red light will go out.
Beep off key
After completion of the print job an acoustic signal (beep) will notify the user to take
the pen out of the pen holder and re-cap. The signal will be repeated continuously
after 20 seconds and can be turned off by using the 'beep off' key.
Attention:
The pen will clog and dry up if it remains un-capped in the pen holder.
Please note:
To turn off the signal in general please press 'Clear buffer' and 'beep off' together and
press 'ON' to start the plotter.
To re-activate the signal please use the same sequence.
Insert the plotter pen into the pen holder
Before using the EMS-eco, insert the plotter pen with the desired tip width into the clip
adapter of the pen holder.
Important:
Only plotter pens of the types shown with HP-adaption
may be used. Using other plotter pens and writing
instruments may damage the device.
Please note:
Prior to starting the plot, please select the pen with the desired tip width and make
sure to prime the pen on a plastic surface. Insert the pen directly into the pen holder.
The plotter always re-calibrates prior to first plotting.

Placing the elements in the fixtures

fixtures on the plotter.
