    Hi All My Roland PNC-1000A is making a loud buzzing noise when turned on. The cutting head goes to the left and when it reaches the end it doesn't seem to stop, so i manually switch it off. It's a quality built cutter and would rather fix it and keep it going. Any tips or possible causes...

  5. Need Help SignLab 9.1 - DXF Cut

    Hi All I'm new to using signlab and have seen various tutorials on how to use the software. I've imported a DXF from a CAD software and it does do very well. When i go to cut then put 'plot', it says no object to cut. there might be a very simple solution to this but i can't seem to find it...
  6. Roland PNC 5000 Pinch Roller Sensor Detection Error

    hi It was the belt-tensioner plate. The belt was creeping up in the reverse direction (too much load) which made it lose steps. Was finally running Tru with no problems. Machine was performing as it should. Now left it overnight switched it on this morning, the motor on the belt makes a...
  7. Roland PNC 5000 Pinch Roller Sensor Detection Error

    Hi All I have been scratching my head and trying to work out how I can override the pinch roller Sensor stage on my PNC 5000. I've been having issues with the detection. I press setup the carriage moves to the middle then back to home position again on the left hand side. I've checked the reed...
  8. Roland PNC-5000 Connectivity and Flashing Lights

    Hi All. I've temporarily soldered on a couple of wires to simulate the reed switch. Bit tricky trying to tap them together twice as it travelled when setup was pressed. But it is indeed the faulty reed switch. So thanks for the link I have 10 attempts to get it right. The location of the switch...
  9. Roland PNC-5000 Connectivity and Flashing Lights

    May have found the culprit for it not working and picking up the magnets on the pinch rollers. The reed switch sensor which runs along side the printing/cutting head looks broken. hopefully replace that and try again:

  11. Roland PNC-5000 Connectivity and Flashing Lights

    Thanks for that. I've met those rules it seems to be inconsistent. I've ensured the relevant dip switch is on for the front paper edge sensor. The missing magnet may be the missing piece in the puzzle. Really appreciate your help. I'll see how I go with replacing this magnet then might just...
  12. Roland PNC-5000 Connectivity and Flashing Lights

    Thanks a million for that link, even Roland had given up. I've manged to get it to communicate via the USB to Parallel cable. I setup a virtual machine with XP on it I managed to fluke it being online by playing around with the material positioning. i kept pressing setup while adjusting the...
  13. Roland PNC-5000 Connectivity and Flashing Lights

    I best get that magnet then. It is the only stone left to be turned. That's quite sophisticated for a machine from 1996.
  14. Roland PNC-5000 Connectivity and Flashing Lights

    Tried that then thought it was sending the cutting file to the cutter but then comes up with an error message saying 'is the plotter online?'. If I press the setup button once then it comes to the middle and both Lights blink. If I press it again then only the power one stays on and the other...
  15. Roland PNC-5000 Connectivity and Flashing Lights

    Hi. the material is pinched down. On both ends. However the tiny magnet is missing on one of roller pinch assemblies. Maybe that's why. Roland got back to me today saying that due to its age they no longer have any drivers available for it. It's a solid unit and deserves bringing back into...
  16. Roland PNC-5000 Connectivity and Flashing Lights

    I've recently bought a Roland PNC-5000 used from eBay. It had one pinch roller assembly missing so I replaced this. When I start the machine it powers up and when I load it with vinyl and press 'setup' the head moves then he Power and the Setup start to blink simultaneously. None of the other...
