The system should go to the Find Mark image created for this program,
then perform the Step & Repeat X command in the X direction 42 times, at
an interval of 3 mm each time. Each Step & Repeat X command aligns itself
with the center of the line. Once done, the system dispenses along the line,
following the curve.
NOTES:
- Click VIEW if you want to view the pattern before running it.
- Because the line for this example is fairly straight, this program works
at this point using only a Mark Follow command. For deeper curves, the
Mark Follow Offset command is needed. Continue to the next step for an
explanation of how to use the Mark Follow Offset command for deeper
curves.

If needed for a line with a deeper curve:
• Insert a MARK FOLLOW OFFSET
command and enter X or Y offset values
to be applied to all commands below it.
• Insert additional MARK FOLLOW
OFFSET commands as needed to
obtain the desired dispense result.
NOTES:
- To remove the effect of a Mark Follow
Offset command, enter another Mark
Follow Offset command with the X
and Y values set to 0.
- If you are testing this example using
a slight curve, you might need to
recreate it using a deeper curve.
