SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
System requirements
Please read through the following recommendations carefully.
They can be very helpful in finding the optimum hardware for
your needs.
• Operating system:
Microsoft Windows 2000 Professionalwith ServicePack 1 or
higher
• Processor:
Pentium III, 800 Mhz or higher.
• PCI Bus:
The PCI bus system must meet up-to-date standards (PCI 2.0
or higher – 3.3 V or 5 V autoadaptive, maximum load 5 A).
If your computer does not fulfill this standard, it is possible
that the plotter controller will not be identified.
• Front Side Bus:
133 Mhz
• System memory:
Use a system memory with at least 256 MB RAM. With this
system memory, you can plot or scan the maximum drawing
size. However, a system memory of 512 MB RAM is recommended if you wish to simultaneously plot and scan drawings with maximum drawing size. Simultaneous scanning
and plotting of smaller formats also enables the use of
smaller system memory. See also page 6.
• Hard drive:
The hard drive should have at least 10 GB memory. We recommend not to install the program on that drive where you
have already installed your operating system.
• Network interface/Configuration:
10/100 Base T Ethernet, the TCP/IP configuration is necessary
• RW-470 Controller:
Physical dimension: 190 mm x 128 mm
PCB dimension: 174,63 mm x 106,8 mm
RW-470 5

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
• Monitor:
At least 1024 x 768 pixels resolution
Memory requirements
In the following chart the possible sizes of plots were calculated.
The sizes of plots depend on the size of the main memory. In
the first chart you can see the results for documents with an average complexity and in the second the results for documents
with high complexity.
Further assumption are:
• All calculations are based on a transportation speed of 90
mm/s.
• Scan and plot degree is 1 bit/pixel
• Usage of average document complexity.
• Usage of 128 MB for operating system Windows 2000 and
The RW-470 Software works only, if you have installed an controller. You have to install the Printer Controller RW-470 and the
appropriate software. In the next chart the technical data are
listed. In the following chapter the installation of the kernel
driver is explained.

PRINTER CONTROLLER RW-470
Changes to the Controller RW-470 are possible and the manufacturer does provide separate information of them.
The technical specifications comply with
Installing the Controller into your PC
Note: The Printer Controller RW-470 is – like all other
high integrated circuits – sensitive to electrostatic
charge. Therefore, remove the controller carefully from
the shipping container and do only touch it at the side
or at the bracket. Do never touch any of the circuits on
the controller with your finger. If you need to do so,
touch a metal object before you touch the controller.
1. Switch off your PC before you install the controller.
2. Select a free PCI slot according specification above. Note
that on certain computers the PCI slot #5 is not fully compatible to PCI specification 2.0. In that case do not use slot
#5 and #6.
3. Insert the controller into the PCI slot and fasten the fixing
screw. Make sure the controller is sitting well, no components touch surrounding cards or the case and that the fixing screw is set properly.
4. Re-mount the PC case. Connect the cable(s) to the plotter.
Troubleshooting
The kernel driver will only run, if an controller board was found
and all self checks were passed successfully. To see, whether the
kernel driver is running: Run ControlPanel->Devices and check
whether the device „PRINTER CONTROLLER RW-470Drv“ is running.
8 RW-470
Page 9
PRINTER CONTROLLER RW-470
If the kernel driver (device driver) „Printer Controller RW470Drv“ is not running: Start event-viewer START->Programs>Administration->Eventviewer and find out reason for failure.
Only if the PRINTER CONTROLLER RW-470DRV Driver is running, you can use the controller.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
This chapter contains an overview of which commonly asked
questions can arise when working with RW-470 PLOTBASE and
how you can solve them. See also the explanations about “error
messages” in the RW-470 PLOTBASE manual.
The topics are arranged in groups under terms, which are
sorted alphabetically:
• Jobs are not printed, indication „Please wait“ in the
status window
On the display of the plotter the interrupt button was activated. The plotter is in the offline mode and can’t receive
jobs from RW-470 PLOTBASE. If you want to recreate the
online mode, press the interrupt button.
• A file has not been included in the job list
1. Check the status bar, to see whether the interpreter is
switched on. If this is not the case, you can activate it in
the “Configuration“ menu.
2. Check whether the correct spool path is set in RW-470
CLIENTS.
• A file has not been plotted, the job status in the job
list displays a “Problem” (Color red)
The reasons could be due to the following errors:
1. General errors:
a. Check the messages in the RW-470 PLOTBASE
status window. The plotter must display the status
“Pending“.
b. Ensure that the play button is activated:
c. If you want to work in automatic print mode, ensure
that the “Auto Plot“ mode is activated.
10 RW-470
Page 11
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
d. Carry out a “Test plot“, to check correct function of
the plotter. For that select “Job – Test Print”.
e. Check whether the “Interrupt“ switch at the scanner
display has been activated. Deactivate it.
f. Check the connection cable between the scanner
and server.
2. File error
a. If a file certain file type (PDF, CGM, or similar.) can-
not be printed, you must first acquire the relevant licenses for these optional file formats and install a
license file.
b. The file is possibly damaged. Send the file to RW-
470 PLOTBASE again or transfer the file to the
server in another file format.
c. A printed stamp is defined larger than the drawing
format.
3. Others
a. Check whether the required type of media is avail-
able.
b. Check the width of the available plotter rolls.
• A file has not been plotted, the job in the job list has
the status “manual“ (Color light blue)
The following reasons are possible:
1. The job is password protected.
The printout can only be started manually by the user after a password has been entered.
2. Test print is activated
The printout has to be started manually, so that a test
print out can be plotted first.
• Color drawings
Colors are represented in RW-470 PLOTBASE by a raster
density. You can set the “colors” in two different ways. Open
the “Additional” tab in the job editor and click on the „Pen
Settings“ button, if the entry is a HPGL/2 or Calcomp format.
Here you can set each individual color for the respective for-
RW-470 11
Page 12
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
format. Either you enter the gray scale for each individual
color in percent or you set pens the pens to “Gray“ and enter
the required percentage value.
• Lines are not visible
If the file to be plotted is in a HPGL or Calcomp format, the
color can be set too light or the pen widths are too small.
• Printout plotted on an unexpected medium
The plotter can sometimes print on another roll that you expected, although you entered the default values correctly.
This can be caused by the following:
1. RW-470 PLOTBASE has a plot logic, which is instructed
to „waste“ as little paper as possible when selecting the
roll, to print as quickly as possible (preferred print direction in landscape format).
2. As the roll sizes in RW-470 PLOTBASE must be fixed
without variances, it is necessary to print on a larger roll
even if a drawing is only 0.1 mm larger than the roll selected by you. This can e.g. be the case if unfavorable
pen widths or scaling have been selected. There are
three possible ways to solve the problem:
a) Scale the drawing to e.g. 99 %,
b) Increase the setting for the number of “step
sizes/cm“: e.g. from 400 to 401. The drawing would
be reduced to 99.75 %.
c) Use a thinner pen width for the drawing frame.
• Quality loss
Especially in photos and drawings with lots of gray scales,
scaling can lead to a loss of quality. This is because the CIS
element [Contact Image Sensor] in the scanner only divides
all gray scale values into black and white due to the blackwhite threshold value and gray scale values can therefore
not be scales with the drawing.
• Scaling
The following points must always be borne in mind when
scaling drawings:
1. Photos and drawings can result in a loss of quality. C.f.
Quality loss.
12 RW-470
Page 13
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
2. Note the minimum pen widths when scaling. C.f. Pen
widths.
• Pen widths
Ensure that you observe the minimum pen widths for vector
images. Scaling a drawing smaller and scaling the pen
widths too can lead to loss quality and information in the
printout.

ADDITIONAL FONT PATHS
Additional font paths
To enter additional font paths and thus additional fonts proceed
(if you are the administrator) as follows:
1. Open the registry editor. Select the following file:
\\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\RW470\PLOTBASE\PLOTSERVER\3.0\FORMATS\RW-470PS /
EPS\
FontPath
Open an edit dialog by double clicking on the file name.
2. The existing entry “.;.\Font“ of the above figure is based on
the following syntax rules:
• . (Full stop): the font path is in the current folder
• ; (Semicolon): begins a new font path
• .\ (Full stop, back slash): the font path is in the subfolder
.\<subfolder>
The existing entry “.;.\Fonts“ means that the actual font is located in the current folder (RW-470PS / Eps) or in the
“Fonts” subfolder of the current folder.
Now enter a new font path in the “Value“ field behind the existing font path. Define additional fonts using the syntax described
above.

PRODUCING SSL FILES
Producing SSL files
The structure and commands of the SSL files are described in
this chapter. You can use the SSL commands to configure the
print job yourself. There are three classes of SSL commands:
Structured commands, SSL commands and parameters.
This description explains the structured commands first, there
then follows an alphabetical list of the SSL commands with the
corresponding parameters.
Structured commands
A job begins with BeginJob <name> and ends with EndJob.
The defaults for the plot files are defined immediately below BeginJob, and are based on commands related to the set and plot
file. The block with commands for the plot file starts with BeginOutput and ends with EndOutput.

SSL commands
For each SSL command you will find descriptions, which are labeled with the abbreviations SC, C, SY, D. They mean the following:
• SC (Scope): This describes where the command can be
placed. JOB is in the area between BeginJob and the first
BeginOutput. Here there are commands, which always affect a set as a whole, e.g. Customer or e-mail, and the defaults for the SSL commands, which concern the entries. For
some SSL commands there are no meaningful defaults, e.g.
Name, these are only in the ENTRY area. The ENTRY area is
located between a BeginOutput and the corresponding
EndOutput. This is where the commands are, which exactly
concern a plot file, namely those, which are clearly labeled
with Name and Directory. A command in this area has the
highest priority, it overlays other instructions from the defaults area (JOB). If a command is not listed here, the corresponding entry from the JOB applies.
• C (comment): This contains a description of the meaning of
the command as well as the range limitations, which do not
result from the syntax.
• SY (Syntax): This is where the command syntax is written in
the form of an EBNF (Extended Backus-Naur Form).
Notes on EBNF:
- A production is represented by =.
- An exclusive Or by |
- Nonterminal symbols are labeled with pointed brackets:
<String>
20 RW-470
Page 21
PRODUCING SSL FILES
- Any number of symbols (including none) by round
brackets with asterisk: ( <Digit> )*
- More than one symbol with round brackets with Plus : (
<Digit> )+
- One or no symbols with round brackets with question
mark: ( <Whitespace> )?
A normal arithmetic bracket is also round: ( a | b )
• D (Default): This is where the program defaults are if there
is no SSL ( and no default.ssl ).
The SSL commands are listed in the following. There are three
different types of SSL commands, which are labeled in different
ways:
■ Currently supported commands

PRODUCING CFG FILES
Producing CFG files
This chapter explains the CFG file structure and commands.
CFG files are usually produced normally automatically and are
sent with the corresponding drawing files to the RW-470
PLOTBASE. They contain the settings for the print off.
You can use the CFG commands explained in this chapter to
produce your own CFG file. To do this, you only need a simple
text editor. Save the file when ready as <Filename>.cfg.
The CFG file and the drawing file must have the same name.
Example files: tiger.cfg, tiger.tif. Copy this CFG file together with
the drawing file in the spool directory (e.g. C:\spool\cfg) of the
RW-470 PLOTBASE. Always send the CFG files first, then the
drawing files. Otherwise there is a risk that the drawing file is
automatically processed and plotted, before the actual print settings in the CFG file are available.
A CFG file could be constructed as follows:
COPYCOUNT = 1
ROTATE = 270
MIRROR = OFF
FOLD = OFF
BORDERACTIVE = ON
BORDERSAME = OFF
BORDERTOP = 5
BORDERBOTTOM = 5
BORDERLEFT = 20
