This is also known as ‘homing’ the machine. It refers to the process of the machine finding its mechanical
home position.
From this point, the user has two options;
Home the machine or cancel the homing process. We recommend that you home the machine every time
you start up.
Press “ESC” will skip the homing process.
WARNING:
There will be no reference position and break points, offsets and all func
-
tions that rely on a reference position will be invalid.
Once the machine has moved to its homing position on each axis, it will stop and enter an IDLE state and
will be ready to use.
Pressing “OK” will initiate the homing process. The machine will first move the Z-axis
to the top of travel and then the X and Y axis will move simultaneously until both are
at the home / reference position at the front left corner of the machine bed.
NOTE: The homing procedure can be aborted at anytime by pressing ESC.
ADVANCED HOMING:
If you hit “ESC” by accident, or would like to reindicate the axes, there are two ways to “Home” again.
1) Press Menu > 3. Operations > 1. Back REF Point > 1. All Home
2) Shortcut
