Acceleration
The factory-set
Acceleration
is 1.0 g. The
Acceleration
setting deter-
mines how quickly the pen or blade will reach full speed when start-
ing or ending a cut line. Use the
Control Center
to change the setting
within a range of 0.1 to 1.0 g. For long or difficult cuts, or when try-
ing to achieve maximum accuracy, use lower
Acceleration
settings.
Up/Down Delays
The factory-set
Up
and
Down Delays
are both 0 milliseconds (ms) or
0 thousandths of a second. The
Delay
setting controls the amount of
time, in milliseconds, the signcutter pauses after lifting or lowering
the pen or blade. Under normal circumstances this setting will not
require adjustment. Thick material (e.g. sandblast mask) may require
a delay of 25 to 50 ms.
Force
The minimum and maximum force settings for the
Force
control
knob on the keypad is adjustable.

Blade Overcut
Blade Overcut
is the distance the blade travels beyond the end of a
cut.
Blade Overcut
ensures that each cut actually reaches the point
where one cut line meets and slightly overlaps another cut line. This
ensures that all of the pieces of the sign will be cut completely, with
no undercuts. The factory-set
Blade Overcut
is 10 mils. This setting
is ignored when a pen is installed in the carriage.
Blade Steering Arc
Blade
The
Blade Offset
is nominally 15 mils (or 47 mils on some
Offset
blades), but specific blades can vary within a tolerance.
For close work, making some tiny test cuts at several set-
tings, then picking the best one, can improve accuracy.
This setting is ignored when a pen is installed in the car-
riage.
Minimum Minimum Angle
sets the angle for the signcutter blade
Angle
steering arc. For a very tiny cut, a small or zero angle
can be specified. For larger cuts a greater angle of up to
45 degrees is best. The factory-set value works well with
most files. Adjusting this setting for small cuts may im-
prove performance. This setting is ignored when a pen is
installed in the carriage.
