Length of Serial Cable PC to GS15Plus?

New Member
Recently I've been having problems cutting on my GS15Plus. Sometimes it cuts okay, in the right place whilst other times it might cut the first okay but start cutting the 2nd in the middle of the design or some other random point.

This has only started happening in the passed couple of weeks whereas previously it's cut fine.

Might it be the plotter needs a clean under the covers - are ther any switches there that might need some attention?

I'm using the Gerber serial cable but as the cutter is about 20' away from the PC, I've added an extension cable. Nothing new, it's always been like this.

Is there an optimum length for the serial cable?

Whilst on the subject, does anyone have the wiring diagram of the Gerber serial cable? I'm sure I had it and usually I'm organised but :Oops: not this time!!
Cheers

John
