Linear Encoder Strip Cleaning
Clean the linear encoder strip every 75 - 100 plot hours (every 50 plot
hours if GO ink is being used) or as necessary to remove any buildup of
debris. NovaKlean™ followed by isopropyl alcohol should be used. You
may notice that it tends to fog the encoder strip; however, no detrimen-
tal effect has been observed in the field.
To clean the Encoder Strip:
1. Disconnect the power cord and interface cable.
2. Slightly dampen a cotton swab with NovaKlean™ and wipe
along the length of the encoder strip on both sides.
3. Slightly dampen a cotton swab with isopropyl alcohol and wipe
along the length of the encoder strip on both sides. This is
necessary to remove any possible residue that may have been
left from the NovaKlean™ solution.
4. Reconnect the power cord and interface cable.
