(5) If you cannot see the corner of a reg mark in any of the projected camera images, note which direction the
camera needs to move and then click on
Prev
at the bottom.
In the following example, which occurred at
the top right registration mark, you can tell that the camera needs to move down, as only the top line of the
reg mark is visible:
(6) After clicking on
Prev
, you will be taken back to the prior screen. Move only one or two increments in the
directions needed and click on
Next
. It doesn’t take very many clicks to move a significant distance relative
to the size of the magnified image projected by the camera. For example, in this case above, only one click
of the down arrow resulted in the needed change:

The reg mark is now clearly seen and the red “
+
” can be moved to the corner of that reg mark. Once
aligned, click on
Next
.

Once you’ve completed all three, the head will return home to correct the blade direction and then will
proceed to cut out the shapes.
11.03.5 Adjusting the X and Y Camera Offsets
(1) After the print and cut is completed, examine how the cut lines were made relative to the printed lines. If the
offset is large enough, use a metric ruler to measure. If the offset is very small, then just estimating will be
fine as you refine your calibration.
(2) In the following diagram, the red lines represent the cut lines and the black lines represent the printed lines.
Use this diagram to determine whether your
Offset
values need to raised or lowered:
If the
red cut line
is below
the black print line, then
decrease the value of Y.
If the
red cut line
is above
the black print line, then
increase the value of Y.
If the
red cut line
is left of
the black print line, then
increase the value of X.
If the
red cut line
is right of
the black print line, then
decrease the value of X.
Red cut line
is below the
black line: decrease Y
from 6.0 to 5.0.
Red cut line
is above the
black line: increase Y
from 6.0 to 7.0
Red cut line
is 1mm left of
the black line: increase X
from 21.5 to 22.5
Red cut line
is 1mm right of
the black line: decrease X
from 21.5 to 20.5
Reg mark is just barely
visible so the camera
needs to move down
