Help! Issues with my cutter

Recommended Posts

When I turn on my Creation Pcut 630 the display just has black boxes across the screen... What is wrong with it?

check ans see if eithr of the kill switches on the sides of the cutter are stuck in - sometimes that does it

Normally on a Creation machine the screen going blank or displaying black boxes means that one of the kill switches is being depressed. The kill switches are located on each inner wall, if either of these are pressed down the machine will cease all activity until the button isn't being pressed anymore. These kill switches are there to protect the motor that moves the carriage. In order to fix the problem turn the machine off, move the carriage off of the kill switch gently, then turn the machine back on. If the screen is still blank then tap each kill switch to see if they are stuck down. If this does not fix your problem you should get a hold of our tech support team.

call support - could be a bad board.  some times the switches stick in and you need to tap them a couple of times also
