Proximity Restart
The Proximity Restart function is an advanced feature that allows the operator to begin a file by locating the end
position based on the original Home location. The controller will search through the file to locate the nearest point
and base the coordinates of the restart on the Home position from where the file was originally executed.
Proximity Restart is used any time a file is interrupted and restarting the entire file is not practical. The operator
can return to the original Home position to restart the program as the configuration is based on where the cutter
stopped in relation to where the cutter originally began. This command will function through the internal replay
buffer of the machine.
1. Press
Shift
and
Start
from the Home position where the file was originally executed.
2. Press
Jog Arrows
to move the head assembly to a position within the restart tolerance of
the desired point for restart.
3. Press
Enter
to begin the search. The keypad display will indicate the coordinates when a point within the
restart tolerance is found. If no points are located within the restart tolerance, the system will default to the
main display. At this point, the operator should repeat the Proximity Restart process.
4. Press
Start
to restart the file at the current location or press the
X-axis Up Jog Arrow
to access the
closest point in the file. Lasers can begin just before the last cut location.
a. If the point is located over a Tool UP Move, follow the keypad display and repeat step 3.
b. If there is a power failure, the operator will need to re-index the machine and reset Surface and MaxDepth.
