OPOS XY
There exists a function in OPOS to compensate for curved printing errors in the Y axis also.
This is called OPOS XY. An extra line needs to be printed with the design to be able to use
the OPOS XY functionality.

The line may be added between or above the front Y markers. The distance between the
centre of the markers and the line should not be more then 20mm (distance 1). The left and
right margin between line and marker should be 10mm for optimal sensing (distance 2).
The line itself should be 1mm thick. It is not necessary to have a white area between the
extra line and the rest of the design.
When OPOS XY is enabled, then the OPOS sensor will measure points along the extra line.
The number of measuring points will be calculated by the cutter and will depend on the
width of the design.
NOTE:
The default setting for OPOS is OPOS. If the OPOS XY functionality is needed,
then the user must set change the setting ‘alignment mode’ in the Opos Setup to OPOS
XY by hand on the control panel (see section 4.3.15) or via the cutting software.
NOTE:
Some cutting software do not support the OPOS XY feature. If they also send the
alignment command ‘OPOS’ to the cutter, then they block the OPOS XY feature of the
cutter. If it is possible to define a line by hand in the design so that it meets up to the
specifications above, then the blocking of the software can be neutralized by using the
setting: ‘FORCE OPOS XY’ in the alignment mode.
