Notes about the set up for the Office and Saw PC's
Office PC
The Office PC is a PC in the office (away from the saw).
Install the program following the usual instructions.
Set the saw transfer parameter: PATH FOR ONLINE LABEL PC.
This must be the same directory that you set up on the SAW PC.
Note - PATH FOR ONLINE LABEL PC can also be a path on the Office PC and you can transfer runs and print labels in the usual way. This is useful for testing or training with the Online label PC program where you do not have a link to a SAW PC or the link is not available.
Set the label printer. Use the Windows SETTINGS option to set the label printer as the default Windows printer.
To use the Online label PC option you must have a MODULAR system.
Transfer to SAW PC - To transfer data to the Saw PC select
MACHINE INTERFACE - TRANSFER TO SAW.
The saw transfer parameter: PATH FOR ONLINE LABEL PC - must be set. Select transfer mode 2 to transfer only to the Online label PC. For other transfer modes the data is sent both the Online label PC and the Path for Saw data if this parameter is set.
Review Online Label PC - select this to view the run data at the saw from the Office PC - you can also print labels manually at the office.
Send message - to send messages from the Office to the Online label PC
Canon

Saw PC
The SAW PC is an ordinary PC at the saw (it may have a touch screen and the keyboard may be removed when in regular use).
Install the Optimising program from the CD-ROM (as described in the Install / Setup process).
The program must be set up on the saw PC using a V12 Modular (SO / PO) or Master key. Once set up, an online PC key may be used to run the online PC program (enquire.exe) directly via a desktop shortcut (see notes below).
Set the saw transfer parameter: PATH FOR ONLINE LABEL PC. This is a path on the SAW PC.
To run the Online label PC program directly from an icon on the desktop or on start-up run the program ENQUIRE.EXE. Also set up the system so that there is only one main data directory otherwise the VIEW DIRECTORIES screen can appear and then a directory has to be manually selected.
Set the label printer (this is usually the only printer on the SAW PC). Use the Windows SETTINGS option to set the printer as the default Windows printer. The label printing always uses the default Windows printer.
