How to setup Summa S & Summa S2 Class plotters (from 16.4)

Problem/Question
After an update the Summa plotter works not as intended.
You are confused about the variations of available drivers and need to know which driver to choose.

Solution/Work-Around
Just choose the type as described below:
  1. DRAG_HEAD supports the D Series
  2. TANGENTIAL_HEAD supports the T Series
  3. DUAL_HEAD supports the TA Series
Old cut environments are converted to the DRAG_HEAD driver.
When the old cut environment was used for a T series or TA series model, the model has to be re-selected from the "General" tab, where the T and TA series models are no longer listed.
You have to create a new cut environment.
