+ | Zero the Work Coordinates. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:p8.png?600|}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | We usually Zero the Work Coordinates after Moving a Axis . | ||
+ | |||

+ | |||
+ | **Homing**{{:p10.png?100|}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | Homing make machine go to the same start position for a Repeated Engraving. Only when a machine come with a XY limit switch, homing is available. | ||
+ | Click the homing button, the engraving machine will move XY axes until reach the limit switch. | ||
+ | After a homing, X&Y coordinates is set to (0,0). | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:w.jpg?100|}}Warning: please stay away from the engraving machine when the machine is homing. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **5. Z Axis Probing** | ||
+ | |||
+ | We must adjust the Z Axis height value before engraving. The simple way is move z axis, let the engraving knife just above the engraving level, then Zero the Z Coordinate. The quick way is using a Probe tool. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Install Probe tool. | ||
+ | Refer to the board connection picture for more information. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:p11.png?600|}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | Click the Probe Button>>{{:p12.png?100|}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Z Axis will go down, reach the Probe Tool surface, stop, go up, stop finally. The Z axis height value will be adjust right when stop finally. Remove the Probe Tool. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Tip:** Do not Zero Z Coordinate after finished a Probing operation. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Unlock**>> {{:p13.png?100|}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | The machine will go into Alarm State if something wrong happened. For example, the machine reach the limit switch when working. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Exclude errors, click Unlock button to continue. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **6. Start Engraving** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Usually the engraving process is as bellow. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Make a G-Code file >> Power the Machine >> Run Candle >> Load the G-Code File>>Place the Engraving Object >> Move to start point and Zero X&Y Coordinates >> Probe >> Start Engraving. | ||
+ | |||
+ | We provide some examples to help you quickly familiarize yourself with the machine. | ||
+ | Click Open, select a G-Code file in the Example G-Code file folder. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:p14.png?600|}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | After G-Code is loaded. According to the above description Place the engraving object, move to start point and zero X&Y Coordinates, probe , finally click Send button to start engraving. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:p15.png?600|}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Pause & Stop Control** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Click// Pause// to pause, Click Pause again to Continue. Click// Abort// to Stop. | ||
