MARKING SYSTEMS
Scriber VS 200
The VS200 base unit is a stand-alone
plotting system with an integral keyboard
and display screen. The marker fixture,
plotter pen, and the memory cassette
have to be inserted in the base unit to
make it operational. The base unit comes
in an aluminum carrying case and
includes the memory cassette and the
power supply. A manual is available in
English and Spanish.
The VS 200 can be used to produce
labels of all types, with its fixture change-
able in a matter of seconds.
The Vario VS 200 makes labeling easy.
The menu-driven program guides you
quickly and easily through all the steps.
It can be used at any time and in any
place. Easily transported in its special
case, the battery-operated (battery pack
sold separately) VS 200 can be operated
precisely where you need it. The spa-
cious case provides enough room for the
extensive accessories.
Plotter VP 500
The VP 500 base unit is an auxiliary plot-
ter and has to be connected to a PC via a
parallel port or USB connection. It is a
high speed plotting device and enables
plotting of different markers in one set-
ting. The marker fixture and the plotter
pen have to be inserted before com-
mencing the plotting operation. The base
unit is primarily controlled through a PC
with the help of Vario Sign software.
Manual available in English and Spanish.
The special design of the VP 500 enables
it to hold different markers from various
manufacturers at the same time. It is also
possible to write on relatively large mark-
ers with a maximum height 14 mm.
Fixtures
Fixtures are required for alignment of
markers with respect to the plotter pen.
Different marker fixtures can be mounted
on the plotter bed of the VP 500 at the
same time thereby reducing set up times.

ous manufacturers like Altech, Allen
Bradley, Connectwell, ContaClip,
Entrelec, Weidmuller, Phoenix Contact,
PTR, Wieland, Wago, Murrplastik, Partex,
SES Sterling, etc. are available. For more
