This process is essentially the same as how it is performed in C3 (refer to
Section 2.06.
3 of the
C3 User
Manual
).
o
The first step is to remove the current tool. At this point, you can also move the head to a new
location such as over the paper. There are shortcut keys which can be used to move the head in
larger or smaller increments as follows:
▪
Shift
+ arrow key: move in a larger increment
▪
Ctrl
+ arrow key: move in a smaller increment (on a Mac:
Command
+ arrow key)
▪
Shift + Ctrl
+ arrow key: move in the smallest increment possible (on a Mac:
Shift +
Command
+ arrow key)
o
Click on
Next
and the head will lower.
IMPORTANT:
you must NOT, at this point, use the buttons or
keyboard arrows. The head will raise if you do this AND you will
not
be setting the correct
Z Origin.
At this second step, you must only insert the new tool (the test pen, in this case) and tighten, while
the head is in the down position. Click on
Next
and the head will raise and return to the home origin.
Set the
XY Origin
in the lower right corner of the paper:
o
Click on
Set origin
and use the buttons or keyboard arrows to move. This is essentially the same
as how you set it in C3.
o
The same shortcut keys previously listed can be used to move in larger or smaller increments
o
Once the head is in position, click on
OK
.
Use all of the same settings as shown in the prior
Cut Settings
screenshot (unless using a felt tip
marker in which case a
Cutting Depth
of 2 should work). Then click on
Cut
.
•
The arrow will be drawn to align with the origin you set on the paper with the test pen.
If the pen doesn’t
draw, try increasing the
Cutting Depth
by 5 (or by 2 if using a marker).
•
To draw again, return to the
Cut Settings
window and choose a different origin.
Practice moving the origin to different locations on the paper. The shape will always align with the
location of this origin. This is how
Origin Point
mode works.
If you want the image to draw where you have it on the
Cutting Mat
in SCAL, then you need to switch
to
WYSIWYG
mode.
Try using
Landscape
to see if that mode suits you better. The shapes will be rotated 90 degrees
relative to how you see them on the screen.
Refer to
Sections 2.02.2
and
10.07
for more details on controlling where images will cut.
IMPORTANT
: Please read
Sections 2.01- 2.06
before cutting!
