1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1.1 FEATURE This program is made to use each function of 「Grade Marker」「Grade Marker T05」 marking equipment easily by taking the

following

points into consideration.

a. Key, which can be used, is displayed on each screen.

b. Operations for each function are allocated to function keys.

c. Each operation can be selected with cursor key and mouse.

d. Multile data can be inputted one by one in conversational processing.

e. Dialog, giving an attention to any wrong input, is displayed.

f. Operation error and fault content are displayed on screen, for which action must be implemented

according to the displayed content.

This equipment can connect PC for operation with PC interface apart from the equipment connected with RS-232

interface or IO interface separately.

However, when the connection of PC for operation is being set up and controlled, any controlled communication

through RS-232 can not be allowed.

For the connection drawing of GradeMarker Marking Equipment (Model: GMK1,GMK1G) with PC for control software,

refer to Instruction Manual for GMK1 separately.

It may be surmised that there may have any injury due to wrong handling. We, therefore, do ask you not to
