  1. Omega 2.5 to Graphtec FC7000-100

    Kell, Any feedback to share yet? Wondering how you made out with you call to GSP tech; do they acknowledge it as an issue and is there a course for action planned/mapped? No special cable required; just about any off the shelf cable should do the trick.
  2. Sabre 408 5hp spindle

    If it is a high frequency spindle… Precision Drive Systems 128 Durkee Lane Dallas, NC 28034 704.922.5261 www.pdscolombo.com Your best bet would be to contact this individual to review the specifics: Gene McDonald 704.922.5261 x113 gmcdonaldATpdscolombo.com
  3. Omega 2.5 to Graphtec FC7000-100

    Kell, Hope Tony T can jump in here and give “specific” information, but I have been told and experienced it myself; driving the FC series out of Gerber software via USB will not work. You can confirm that yourself by using the serial communications port instead. GSPPlot/GQManager will format...
  4. Photoshop question

    My experience for great Grayscale imaging is inline with Bobby H and quickseps, using L*a*b and/or Calculations. Techamn, Scott Kelby’s book is good, however, IMHO, the “best” channels book to date is Photoshop Channel Chops by Biedny, Monroy, and Moody (ISBN-1562057237). Still applicable...
  5. Gerber pallets in corel

    Perhaps the easiest way is to let Gerber Omega do it via the installer. From the Main Menu on the installer CD, chose Omega Extras (depending on version, this may be two or three “Menus” deep). The Omega Extras installer will give you the option to perform a complete or custom install. If you...
  6. ArtPath

    J.N., Right click on the GSP Tray icon from the System Tray and select System Identification String. Copy and then paste to a reply on this thread the entire contents from the Options section of the Gerber System ID dialog box. Having this information will assist in pointed and relative...
  7. Which magazines do you subscribe to?

    Like Rick, I love books and magazines! While the wife usually doesn’t see it this way for magazines :rolleyes: , I do; if I get one thing from it a year, it was usually worth the subscription. And it is unusual to only get one thing a year (more like one thing each publication) Here is a...
  8. image thumbnail browser

    The content below was originally authored around November of 2003 in response to a similar thread on a UK based sign board. I believe it still very much applicable to CS2 versions (and also with CS3 when officially released in a few months). Hope you are a computer nerd of sorts. I just...
  9. sabre408 not working HELP!!

    Brian, No new news; grinding is not good! For not only me, but others that may read this, could you verify the following? You power everything up, the system goes through its power on self test (POST) and the keyboard scrolls various bits of information (Copyright, Rev Level, etc.) and...
  10. Importing .PLT files into Flexi?????

    Does Flexisign 7.6 support the new Gerber 2.1 plt file format or only versions prior to that (Omega 2.0 and lower; GA 6.2 and lower)?
  11. Stranded at the Edge!!!

    Dave, Just a shot, no guarantee. You mention a new MB; how about the BIOS setting for the LPT port? Most new MB have the port set to ECP by default. You mention an “Edge” and not the “Duece”, so how about taking a peak at your LPT setting inside the BIOS. Just a guess, but it may be set to...
  12. Photoshop Brush

    Precise cross hair? Not sure if this is what everyone is experiencing; is this a “random” problem or is the “CAPS LOCKS” on when this happens? Toggling CAP LOCKS on or off changes from a normal brush shape representation to precise cross hairs representation. Really nice option when performing...
  13. Questions on Artpath

    Tony, No rush on this, I won’t need it until Friday! Sincerely, Bob Gilliland, former MSCE, now just PITA Seriously, if just for minute, thanks for everything you do “do” and try to “do” for us end users. It is greatly appreciated.
  14. Questions on Artpath

    Mike, As Tony mentions, sequence plot, the way most would like to see it, is not currently present. On materials or operations where I need to have control in this area, I’ll assign a plethora of varying RPM’s for the objects. I then enable “Rearrange Output Tool Order” from the Job...
  15. Problems w/software

    George, Things better, or still experiencing some issues?
  16. Opinions wanted!

    Bill, Not wanting to slant or bias you in a particular direction, but there have been some very attractive used/pre-owned deals on various sites. This was one I watched with great interest on ebay recently. If everything is on the up and up, what a nice deal! My main interest in this...
  17. can I print to Edge on different comp.?

    Yes, this is possible. So I don’t type out a bunch of irrelevant information, please post some additional details. I’ll respond with a road map that should have printing and cutting from the “non dongle” based system. Is this a peer to peer network or a server based network? What...
  18. Problems w/software

    George, Probably not the case, but lets knock out the simplest of things first. Is the dongle properly seen by SignLab? From the Help drop down, select About SignLab. The resulting dialog box should list a “serial” number towards the bottom. This number should be a series of ten digits, a...
  19. Anybody with Signlab 7 Experience?

    Nope, don’t mean to imply that at all. Actually, quite the opposite. SL7 is very similar to SL 6.1 from an interface and functionality standpoint right up until the final output procedure. Then there is a major difference, and for the positive IMHO. Reason for encouraging you to move directly...
  20. Is the Manual for Omega 2.0 worth $95?

    Bob, As Dale mentioned, you can download the entire package you would spend the money for. Visit Gerber’s website and from the left hand side of the navigation area, select Customer Corner>Literature, or just click this link Download it, check it out, and if desired, print it yourself or...
