Pressing the P1 or P2 keys will move the optics to the lower left or upper right corners,
respectively, of the engraving areas. These keys are typically used to position the system for

PAUSE KEY AND LED
PAUSE
When this key is pressed once during processing, the PAUSE LED light goes on and motion of
the optics is temporarily halted. Pressing this key once more causes the PAUSE LED to go off
and the system to resume operation. If the pause is left on for more than one minute, the system
will move the optics carriage to the view position (extreme upper right). In either case, the
system will resume operation at the point the pause was initially activated.
CAUTIO:
Laser beam might be on during pause. To prevent damage to work piece, always
close shutter switch (located on control panel) prior to pressing PAUSE key.
