  • Page 47: Effect On Product Reliability

    EFFECT ON PRODUCT RELIABILITY To maintain the plotter in good operating condition, keep it free of dust accumulation, ink, and other contamination. Cleaning intervals are determined by the local conditions under which the plotter is operated and by the types of plotter supplies used. As with any precision electronics equipment, proper maintenance will help to ensure reliability and prolong prod- uct life.

  • Page 48: Drive Roller Cleaning

    DRIVE ROLLER CLEANING The drive roller cleaning procedure should be W A R N I N G performed only by service-trained personnel; otherwise personal injury may occur. If ink is spilled on the drive roller, remove the ink. Due to the ink’s reflectance, ink on the roller can disrupt the plotter’s edge-sensing function.
  • Page 49 Note The speed of the drive roller can be reduced or speeded up by pressing the appropriate arrow button. 11. Apply any common household cleaning solution (e.g. BonAmi aerosol, Simple Green) to a soft, lint-free rag and apply it to the drive roller surface while it is rotat- ing.

  • Page 50: Functional Overview

    Chapter 5 Functional Overview INTRODUCTION This chapter contains a simplified description of the HP C2858A and C2859A DesignJet 650C plotters circuits and mechanical functions. Mechanical and Printed Circuit Assembly (PCA) overviews present a functional description of how the plotter operates.

  • Page 51: Simplified Description Of Circuits

    Centronics or an RS-232-C interface. If an approved modular input/output (MIO) printed circuit assembly (PCA) is installed, the circuits can communicate by way of an HP- IB interface or be connected to a network. The main processor reads Centronics, HP-IB, and Ethernet communications through the port it uses to read memories (ROM or DRAM).

  • Page 52: Mechanical Overview

    The servo processor controls the servo motors, front panel, fan, electrically erasable read-on- ly memory (EEROM), and the stepper drive. It sends configuration information to the car- riage processor via its serial port. The EEROM stores plotter calibration and configuration information while power is OFF.
  • Page 53 An internal cooling fan is supplied with +12 V. It is switched ON and OFF by the servo pro- cessor and is mounted in the electronics enclosure at the rear of the plotter. The fan is primari- ly used to cool the power supply PCA when plotting. When the plotter is not plotting, the fan is switched OFF.

  • Page 54: Printed Circuit Assembly (Pca) Overview

    PRINTED CIRCUIT ASSEMBLY (PCA) OVERVIEW MAIN PCA There are two clocks on the main PCA. The main clock provides a 31.85 MHz signal directly to the main processor. The 31.85 MHz is divided by the main processor, and the resulting signal is provided to the processor support ASIC.

  • Page 55: Carriage Pca

    CARRIAGE PCA The carriage PCA contains an application-specific, integrated circuit (ASIC) that controls the operation of the pens and pen drivers that switch power pulses from the ASIC to fire the pens. It also provides feedback to the main PCA as to the current position of the carriage as- sembly.

  • Page 56: Interconnect Pca

    The dual-voltage, remote sense circuitry sends a + or – sense signal to the dual voltage regu- lators on the interconnect PCA when the voltage to the print heads deviates from the opti- mum pen voltages. The regulator will then adjust the voltage to bring it back to the optimum value.

  • Page 57: Drop And Bail Sensors

    DROP AND BAIL SENSORS The drop sensor is located in the drop detect assembly. Its purpose is to detect ink drops dur- ing pen testing. The drop sensor contains a detector system capable of detecting the presence of a drop shortly after one is fired into the detector. In order for the drop to be fired into the detector, the pen must be positioned over the sensor.
