Modify cutting method

• By pressing F1 it is possible to view the cutting method set by Silca for the card and to modify it when possible

(Ch.6.5.1, page 34).

Note: the editing can be saved as User Parameters.

Use of Electric Contact

• Press F2 to enable or disable the electrical contact function to read the key blank measurements.

The symbol (*) in the clamp field means that the key will be cut reading the key blank
measurements by electrical contact.

A red “X” on the electrical contact icon means that it has been disabled.

Note: some cutting cards do not include electrical contact. In such cases the software does not allow

editing.

Note: the editing can be saved as User Parameters.

• Press F3 to vary the setting for the value of the key blank measurements.

Note: when electrical contact is used it is advisable to set key blank measurements that are the same

as those of the key to be cut.
