SignTools Settings
After installing CorelDRAW the next step is to install SignTools. Follow the instructions on page 4 and 5 of the SignTools 4 User Guide.
Once you have installed SignTools, open Corel Draw and click on the Application Launcher (see picture below) and choose SignTools 4.
Next click on the "Cut"
button and then the "Cut Settings" Button. Select the Summa
D-520 from the "Cutter" drop down box
and select your port.
If you are using a Serial (Com) port click on the “Properties”
button and set the following settings:-
Bits per second : 9600
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow Control: Hardware
The Summa D-120
cutter uses 3 languages
To set the Summa D-120 to DM-PL you must
use the Control on the cutter. Go in the User Config and scroll
down till you get to System Setup section. Next scroll down till
you get to Emulate and choose DM-PL.
USB Connection
If you are connecting
your cutter via a USB connection you must install the USB driver
that came with your cutter first. This will create a an extra Com
port that you can select in the SignTools "Cut Settings" dialog box.
Plotter Cable
Please ensure that your Serial (Com) cable is a RS 232-C cable. SignTools will not communicate with your Roland plotter with a different cable. If you are unsure if your cable is a RS 232-C cable, contact your plotter distributor.
CorelDraw Settings
In CorelDraw's Layout menu select Page Setup. A dialog
box will appear. Set Width to 3200mm (126inches) and Height to
1200mm (47.8 inches).
Ensure that you are using a Landscape page.
To set this as a default page in CorelDRAW click on the Tools menu and choose Options. Click on the word Document on the left hand side and ensure all of the options are ticked and click on the OK button.
To cut any object in CorelDraw, simply place on the page in the bottom left corner. If you wish to cut in a portrait fashion simply rotate your graphics.
Additional note
SignTools 4 cuts from the bottom left of the page either manually place object(s) in the bottom left of the CorelDRAW page or use the "Vinyl Saver" tool with the sliding bar all the way to the left.
