[Idling]
Click [Start] next to Idling.
The idling operation begins.
The operation takes approximately 10 minutes.
[Checking the Motor Load]
Select X, Y, or Z, and then click [Start].
The iModela Controller checks the motor load of the selected axis. Check the loads of all three axes: X, Y,
and Z. If you want to finish in the middle, click [Stop].
If noise is generated, the replaced part might not be installed properly. In this case, reinstall the part
properly. Then, check [Motor load] again.
Confirming the Command Set
You have to select a command set that is compatible with the application software that you will use.
For details on the different command sets, see page 10, "Selecting the Command Set."
Selecting the Cutting Tool and Cutting Material
Selecting the Cutting Tool
You can use not only the cutting tool that is included as an accessory, but various other cutting tools to meet
other needs. It's a good idea to use the cutting tools selectively, according to the work process (such as rough
cutting or finish cutting) and the design. Please refer to the iModela special web site.
