Description of Menu Items
This describes the items and functions available when you press [MENU] and enter the menu mode.
Menu Function Range Default
SETUP This cancels material setup (unsetup). – –
OFFSET This sets the amount of offset for the blade during 0 to 1 mm 0.250 mm
cutting. Perform a cutting test and set the conditions to (0.025 mm step)
match the loaded material and the installed blade.
When using the included blade, cutting can be
performed using the factory-default settings.
QUALITY This sets the cutting quality. Ordinarily this is left set to NORMAL/ NORMAL
[NORMAL]. When rapid cutting is desired, such as HI-SPEED/
when cutting a large material, set this to [HI-SPEED]. HEAVY
When load is large, or if the material is not cut
smoothly, or when small text is to be cut attractively,
set this to [HEAVY].
UPSPEED This sets the speed of movement when the blade is 1 to 85 cm/s 50 cm/s
raised and moves to the next position for cutting during (1 cm/s step)
a cutting operation.
PRESET It is possible to set the cutting parameters to match the Preset 1 to 8 –
blade and material, and store them for later use. Five
items can be stored: cutting speed , blade offset, blade
force, [UPSPEED], and [QUALITY]. These settings
can be stored in memory as eight patterns (numbered
1 through 8).
AXIS ROTATE This rotates the cutting coordinate origin by 90 degrees. 0deg/90deg 0deg
The default setting is [0deg], which means that the
origin is at the bottom left of the material. Setting this
to [90deg] moves the origin to the bottom right of the
material, thereby rotating the cutting pattern by 90
degrees.
* Don’t forget that the coordinate axis changes when
the origin is rotated.
AREA MOVE This moves the material by the length to be cut before 24.9 m toward the 1.0 m toward
actual cutting is performed, making it possible to front to 24.9 m the front
ensure that the material will not slip or come loose toward the rear
during cutting. When performing continuous cutting on
the same material, this can also be used to make sure
that there is enough remaining material to cut the data
that will be sent.
When you are performing front loading, this feeds the
specified length of material to the rear to ensure the
cutting area, and shifts the origin point.
You can pause or stop material feed by pressing the
[PAUSE] key during execution.
SUB MENU FACTORY Selecting [ALL] returns the settings values of the menu PRESET/ALL –
DEFAULT items to their factory-default values.
Selecting [PRESET] returns only the cutting conditions
store in preset 1 through 8 to their factory-default
values.
DISPLAY This sets the unit of measurement used for coordinate mm/Inch mm
UNIT values shown on the display.
When you make the setting with the [AREA MOVE]
menu, selecting [mm] displays values in meters and
selecting [Inch] displays values in feet.
