Setting Overcut
An overvcut function is available when tangential emulation is enabled. The
overcut function enables the plotter to cut a line longer that the cutting data speci-
fies. Overcutting eliminates uncut portions when using thick material. You can
specify the covercut length by entering the start and end points of the overcut.
Press the function key [F1] thru [F4] corresponding to the condition that enables
the tangential emulation mode and requires an overcut setting.
