Set Camera Offsets
The Set Camera Offsets function is used to set the camera offsets based on the center of the cutting head and the
center of the camera by burning a hole based on the values entered in the Params_2D menu. The system prompts
the operator to Jog over until the fiducial is close to the center of the computer screen. The location does not have
to be exact. Camera offsets are usually set at installation and do not need to be reset unless the cutting head is
replaced.
1. Place a piece of white paper over a black material, such as a dark laminate, to set the camera offset.
2. Set the surface on the white paper.
a. Press
Jog Arrows
to position the
center of the head assembly
over the white paper.
b. Press
Set Surface
.
c. Enter the material thickness (e.g., 0.20 [5.08mm]). The display will prompt the operator to set the surface.
d. Press
Z-axis Jog Arrows
- Ferrous metals or machines with capacitive height sensors
to lower the Z-axis until the head assembly is approximately 0.25” (6.35mm) above the material.
- Non-ferrous metals or machines without capacitive height sensors
to position the surface sensor over the material to be cut.
e. Press
Zero
to begin the surfacing routine.
- Ferrous metals or machines with capacitive height sensors
This will cause the Z-axis to move down slowly until the head comes in contact with the surface and
then move up above the surface to the Lift Height.
- Non-ferrous metals or machines without capacitive height sensors
This will cause the Z-axis to move down slowly until the surface sensor comes in contact with the
surface and then move up above the surface to the Lift Height.
