Section 4.0 - Rules
Work Safely. Always wear safety glasses near the machine.
Date Code Line Type:
Date, Time and Shift Code functions are used to automatically mark the current values as listed in below chart.
Variable Line Type:
Variable line types allow the user to enter the marking data on the machine with the keyboard or a bar code scanner.
There may be multiple Variable lines in a file. The text height and X and Y positions are setup as a regular line. When the
file is run on the machine, it will prompt the operator to input the text to be marked. This may be input from the keyboard
or optional bar code scanner.
EX: Marking data from a scale or instrument readout in the shop.
EX: Marking a job that requires new data to be input for each cycle.
Move Line Type:
The move line type moves the machine to an X & Y position, and does not do anything. It is useful for controlling
the path between lines to miss obstructions such as clamps, pins, gussets, etc.
