Modular
Test
Modular Test

This is a combination of the following tests:

DCarriage*axis test

DCarriage test

DMedia*axis test

DFront*panel test

DSensors test

If one part of the test fails￿ the other parts continue regardless.

Perform the test as follows:

1Ensure that the carriage is parked in the service station.

The test does not include carriage&axis initialization. If the carriage starts somewhere in the center of the plotter, it will hit the right&hand side of the plotter when the test begins, and the carriage&axis part of the test will fail.

2 In service mode 1￿ hold down the ALT key and press Modular Test.

The plotter performs all the above tests in parallel. See details of the individual tests to know what happens in each case.
