A. Foreword
1. Appreciation
ThankyouforchoosingIS200-Gravograph.
Gravotech is pleased to count you among the users of its engraving and traceability solutions.
For help, contact Gravotech.
For more information on products, visit www.gravograph.com website.
2. Information
To ensure security and productivity, read this manual before starting-up the equipment.
It provides details about the installation and use of the equipment.
Keep this manual in case you need to refer to it.
Fortheattentionofusershavinganindividualcardiacassistdevice󰄈tted:
Our equipment is designed and manufactured with the greatest care in order to
guarantee their compliance with the EMC Directive currently in force. This means
that the levels of electromagnetic emissions produced by this equipment when in
operationarelimitedanddonotexceedthethresholdsde󰄈nedbytheDirective.
However, multiple factors make it impossible to guarantee the total absence of risk
forusershavingacardiacassistdevice󰄈tted.Consequently,itisrecommendedthat
standing for a prolonged period within less than 1 m (3.281 ft) of an operating machine
should be avoided.

1. Recommendations and safety
Personnel safety
For safety reasons, never operate the machine without constant surveillance.
Turno󰘯themachinebeforebeginninganycleaning,maintenanceorrepairprocedure.
Never hold the materials for engraving by the hands.
Donot start engravingwithout 󰘰rstensuring thatthe object tobe engravedis securely clamped.Use only
Gravograph clamping systems designed for the machine.
Nevertakeholdofthematerialforengravingwhenengravingisinprogress.
Keepawayfromtheareaabovethemachine.Ensurethatpeoplearekeptclearoftheareaoftravelofthe
movingpartsofthemachineandthatnoobjectsriskobstructingtheirmovement.
Duringengraving,therotationofthespindlecouldpresentrisksofburnsandcuts.Topreventanyriskofburns,
thetoolcarrierbelthousingmustbekeptclosedexceptwhenperformingadjustmentoperations.
Warning:Hazardousmovingparts-Keep󰘰ngersandotherbodypartsaway.
Keep clear of the tool-holder.

applications.
Do not use this machine for routing or intensive cutting operations.
Donotusethismachineforwoodwork.
Donotusethismarkingequipmentinanexplosiveenvironment.
In the event of an extended period of non-use, unplug the power cable and protect the machine.
Nevermovethetoolholdermanually,exceptintheeventofamechanicalblockageofthemachine.
Never pour or spill liquid on the machine (drinks, cleaning products, etc.) except where recommended by
Gravotech.
Do not place any object on the machine other than the object to be engraved.
This machine is designed for a single user only. Do not allow its operation by multiple users at the same time.
Duringengravingoperations,usethismachinewitha(regulatingorsuction)noseinordertoprevent󰘱ying
swarf.
Interrupt engraving by means of the function provided for this purpose on the machine control panel.
Use the machine with Gravograph tools only.
Wearing safety glasses
Theuseofsafetyglassesisrecommendedforprotectionagainst󰄉yingswarf.

H.Recommendations for installation
Turn o󰓐 the machine before any intervention (put the On/O󰓐 switch in the "O" (O󰓐)
position).
1. Physical installation
• Placethemachineonahorizontal,stableandcleansurfacethatcansupport10kg(22.046lb)ormore.
• Place the machine in a clean, ventilated environment.
• Avoidsmall,con󰘰ned,unventilatedspaces.
• Donotobstructthee󰘯ectiveventilationofthemachine:
• Ambientlightisenoughtolighttheequipmentproperly.
• Arrangetheworksurfaceforrapidandeasyaccesstoeachexternalpartofthemachineand,ifnecessary,
to the main machine stop button.
• Do not obstruct the movement of the moving parts of the machine.
• Make sure the connector screws are properly tightened to prevent the cables
from becoming disconnected while the machine is switched on. This could cause
permanent damage to the circuit boards.
• The power cable must always be easily accessible (power shut-off device).
• Protecttheequipmentagainst:
- damp(rain,snow,condensationetc.)
- heat(exposuretofullsun,heatingetc.)
- sudden changes in temperature
- dust(extractionduct)
- spillagesofliquidsontotheelectricalunit,cablesandconnections,andallotherpartsofthemachine
(exceptinsituationsrecommendedbyGravotech(lubrication))
- vibrations
- electrical/electronic radiation
2. ITrequirements
• Firmware: refer to the user manual for the IS200 program.
• Refer to the user manual for the Gravostyle program.

M_IS200_EN_B
Recommendations for installation
3. Electrical installation
The connection to the single phase power supply is made with a standard, 3 pin plug
withgrounding.Groundingmustbedoneaccordingtotheregulationsine󰓐ecttoensure
the safety of the personnel.
Checkthattheelectricalinstallationmeetstherequirementsofthe"Inputpower"labellocatedclosetothe
machine'spowersupplysocket.
To avoid interference problems due to the external environment, observe the following:
• Usethelinkcablessupplied.TheycomplywithEMCradio-frequencyinterferenceemissionstandardsand
provideprotectionfromexternalelectricalinterference(compliantwithEMCimmunityandsusceptibility
standards).
• Bringtheitemsofequipmenttobelinkedasclosetogetheraspossibletoreducethelengthofcabletobe
used.
• Separatethepowercablefromthelinkcableandmakesurethepowerandlinkcablesdonotrunthrough
the same cable tray.
• Connect the machine direct to a mains power line and avoid connecting more than one device to that line
(bypluggingseveraldevicesintothesamemainssocketorintoamulti-wayadapter).Exception:Where
equipmentisconnected,suchasacomputerandthemachine,supplypowertothedevicesthroughthe
same mains power line.
• Do not allow inductive or capacitive devices to be connected to the same mains power line as the machine
(motors,solenoidvalves,chargers,etc.).
• Avoid the installation of manual or automatic switching systems on the same mains power line as the
