  3. roland gx-24 not contour cutting

    I'm not sure here but from what I can see from the video it looks like there isn't much material behind the actual cut,..it may be a sensor thinking there is not enough vinyl there to cut,..have you tried doing the same job and maybe taping some extra material to the back side of the cut so the...
  4. Any networking options for Graphtec plotters?

    I can understand why somebody would want to network a printer as they can be preloaded and run long continuous jobs unattended. But with a plotter, unless you intend to cut every sign you do out of one color why would one want to network it and or go to the trouble to network it when 9 times out...
  5. Anagraph excel V cable

    what you more than likely need is a null modem serial cable. 90% of the plotters out there over four or five years old have serial ports and use rs-232 compliant serial cables so the computer can hand shake with the plotter.You can do a search on google and find a schematic on how to wire one...
  6. were you creative as a kid???

    Before I attended elementary school we were displaced by a hurricane in Louisiana and moved back to the Carolina's with little more than the shirts on our backs. This was way before FEMA was anything much more than an idea on the drawing table, as there wasn't any real significant help for those...
  7. Always back up

    I keep all my files on a 5 usb external drives. I have one usb adapter that plugs into a sata/ide 40 pin and an 80 pin interface.For less than $20 it was a great deal as it works with laptop drives and or with an included power adapter on normal size drives. that way if one fails I have multiple...
  8. External HD ticking and computers won't recongize it

    I'm not going to waste my time here to call anyone names and or defend my efforts they were with good intentions and thank you to those who stood up for me and my apologies to those I offended,...nuth said. As for the question about a gyroscope in the hard drive,..I asked the professor about it...
  9. External HD ticking and computers won't recongize it

    Actually it WAS a laptop drive in an an external usb enclosure that the professor scolded me in class about handling when in use. as for not having a clue my professor has a masters from MIT, where as I have no clue, to coin a phrase as to the validity of your stance of superior knowledge,..I'm...
  10. External HD ticking and computers won't recongize it

    I'm just going by what my professor at school taught me here,...the gyro effect is there, as for how it works I have no real clue I didn't ask for details as I wasn't the only one in class that day,and I really didn't want to complicate the topic anymore than it was getting at that point. I was...

    Do a google search on hard drive gyro stabilizers and see how many hits you get,..you guys may not recognize them as such but they are there just the same
  12. Roland GX-24 not longer cuts...

    get the manual read and find out how to run a test cut and do a test cut,it is a routine to see if the mainboard is still working,..if it passes that then the problem is not with the cutter but the software running it.
  13. External HD ticking and computers won't recongize it

    there is a gyroscope inside most hard drives that calibrates the heads so they won't contact the plates,it drives me crazy to see someone pick up an external drive while its still spinning as this can cause a drive to crash and at the very least screw up the calibration process making it easier...

  17. concrete block sealer

    masonry sealer is usually a clear liquid akin to tiecoat. its not much more than liquid acrylic polymer. It goes for about 10 or 12 dollars a gallon here at owes or home depot and you get about 300 sq ft to the gal coverage. takes about half an hour to dry at 75 degrees.

Then go to rolands site and download the drivers for the machine. then install them. then get a vector based design program and learn to use it(this is the part that stops 99% of the populace from entering...
  19. gx-24 question

    1st you need to check and see if the version of vista is 32 bit or 64 bit,..the way they address ports are very different as a 32 bit os has a completely different number to address the port than a 64 bit os. Then you need to find a compatible version of cut studio for that version of windows...
