5.5.4 Creating a Center Driver
In this section, a custom driver will be created based on the Phoenix 1212 S5 Vise driver that will allow
the user to set a home position in the center of an engraving area. The Vision 10 software will
automatically position the job based on this center location. An illustration of this process is shown
below.
For simplicity in this example, a circular piece of acrylic will be engraved. The material is 3 inches in
diameter, and an engraving area of 1.75" x 0.75" needs to be centered on the piece of acrylic.
Referencing the drawing below, the job will be quickly set up using a custom "Center" driver.
First, we need to create and save a custom Center driver. Open up the Vision 10 software and select
Engrave, then Engraving Defaults from the top menu bar.
