Home the Machine Line
The Machine Line must go through a homing routine before any operations are performed. The
homing routine sets a zero reference from which each machine measures its movement and cut-
ting process.
If power is lost or any machine is reset, the homing routine must be performed again. Each
machine has a
Home
button on it’s associated
Main Control Screen
or the entire machine line can
be
Homed
using the
Home Machine Line
button located on the
Machine Line Screen
.
