The second section of the screen displays two values: the
current travel speed of the
machine
(also called Feed)
and the rotation speed of the spindle
(also called Speed)
,
as defined inside the G-code that is loaded in the program.
If you click on the icons, the section expands and shows new functions. They allow you
to
increase/decrease the feed & speed
in real-time
, while it is working and reading a
G-code. For instance, on the image below, the machine is supposed to travel at a speed
of 2000mm/min (Feed F2000), but the speed was decreased by 70% down to 1400mm/

speed
can be changed
by double-clicking on the number indicated on the image below.
To move the machine, press on the arrows with the touchscreen or use the following
