Loosely assemble the Coolant Tank as shown in the photo
below.
Once the lid of the Coolant Tank is fastened into place,
install the Chip Screens.
Next, the PVC Elbows and Tubes should be loosely rotated
into position and the tips should be flush with the Chip
Screens for proper coolant/chip drainage.

The power cord of the Coolant Pump will route into the
Electrical Cabinet and plug in at the Relay Board, which is
located in the upper right hand side.
The Relay Board will have a connection labeled COOLANT, this
is where the Coolant Pump power will plug in at.

The 15 touchscreen monitor will mount to the stand as shown
in the picture above. Three cords should plug into the rear of the
monitor. The three cords are a power cord for the monitor, a USB
cord for the touchscreen function of the monitor, and a VGA cord
for the monitors video function.

The UMC10 requires a 220-volt, 20-amp Single Phase power
source. The picture below shows the three wires you will be
wiring to the machine. To test for proper voltage, place one
of the leads from your voltage meter on the Ground ( Green
wire ), and the other lead on either the Black wire or the White
wire. Your voltage meter should read 120-volts on the Black
wire as well as the White wire.

The UMC10 machine requires a 90-psi constant air pressure
in order to operate. On the side of the electrical cabinet is a
air distribution fitting, on the bottom of the fitting is a 1/4 NPT
female fitting to attach your air supply fitting of choice.
Also supplied is a 90 degree swivel push-to-lock fitting for the
supplied air spray tool with 1/4 plastic air line.

Notice that all of the power cables are unplugged from
the power strip, this is essential for a proper first time
power-up to ensure your power source is safe for the
components. ( PC Computer, PC Monitor, Work light,
FlashCut Control, and Relay Board. )
Once the 220-volt power source is checked, 90-psi of air
is supplied, and all the components are unplugged from
the power strip, the machine is now ready for powering
ON. safely.

The Inverter should be on now and the main screen should
be lit and read as shown in the photo above.
To test the Power Strip voltage, find the power cord for the
Work Light, plug it in, and turn the switch at the light ON/OFF.
Note: The Power Strip has a ON/OFF switch located on the
backside of the housing closest to the Inverter.

Fully power ON the machine.
At the PC screen, double-click the FlashCut Icon to open
the FlashCut Control.
A pop-up window will show when FlashCut is first opened,
select the CONNECT button to activate the Signal Generator.

In the upper right corner of the FlashCut Control is a window,
MACHINE, with a X, Y, and Z position.
Using the drop down option, SET, select the CLEAR option.
Now your Machine window should have a N/A for X,Y, and Z.

Once the cut marks are lined up in their respective positions,
return to the MACHINE window again in the upper right
corner.
From the drop down selection, SET, and select the ZERO ALL
option. The MACHINE window should now read 0.0000 for
the X, Y, and Z positions.

In the lower left corner of the FlashCut Control is a button
labeled, ZERO AXES, click this button and the machine will
now calibrate its axes.
When the machine is finished calibrating a pop-up box will
appear to confirm that you wish to accept the new zero
position, choose YES.

The Table Zero position is now accurately set and ready
for a fixture offset to be set.
Steps 1-12 should be followed every time the machine is
started up for an accurate Table Zero position.
Note 1: If a warning message appears with a limit switch being
tripped please proceed to page 20 to reset the servo motors
drivers.
Note 2: If the machine is shut off at anytime while at a position,
the FlashCut Control will automatically re-display the same
position when powered back on.

In the top COORDINATES tab, choose DEFINE TOOL OFFSET
to access the tool height setting window as shown in the
photo below. This is where you will save your tool offset
when it is at a desired position.

To adjust your tool offsets at anytime, from the CONFIGURATION
tab, choose TOOLS, then TOOL LIBRARY to access the library
of stored positions you have set.

Load your Toolholder into the Spindle according to the desired
Tool Position number shown on the FlashCut Control screen.
JOG the tool safely to a clear and clean side of the Machine Table
where you can place a 1-2-3 Block.
Safely JOG the Z down below to the side of the 1-2-3 Block.
JOG the Z up slowly until it looks flush with the tip of the 1-2-3 Block,
but stopping just before.
Incrementally in .001 moves, JOG the Z up until the 1-2-3 Block
tightly slides underneath the tool's tip.
Note: Be sure to slowly slide the 1-2-3 Block under the tool's tip or
the tools tip will chip, and become damaged.

Do not lower the Z down onto the 1-2-3 Block or the Spindle
can be damaged, or also break the tip of the tool.
In the top COORDINATES tab, choose DEFINE TOOL OFFSET to
save the tool's current height position.
Now you must factor out the 1-2-3 Block height from the saved
Tool height. In the top CONFIGURATION tab, choose TOOLS, then
TOOL LIBRARY to access the library of stored positions you have
set.
Locate the tool position you are currently setting and add the
1-2-3 Block height to the current tool Z OFFSET length that has
been recorded.
For example:
If the 3 side of the 1-2-3 Block was used in setting the tool height,
add the 3 to the current recorded Z OFFSET length. As an example,
if the original Z OFFSET number was -6.0123, your new adjusted
Z OFFSET number should read, -9.0123.

In the top COORDINATES tab, choose DEFINE FIXTURE
OFFSET to access your options for setting a fixture offset.
When the FIXTURE OFFSET pop-up box appears, you will
notice on the lower left side of the box that you can
choose whether you want to set the X,Y, and Z axes all at
once or individually by un-checking a axes.

To adjust your fixture offsets at anytime, from the CONFIGURATION
tab, choose MACHINE, then FIXTURE OFFSETS to access the
library of stored positions you have set.
When setting a Fixture Offset for the Z axes, note that the
recorded number in the Fixture Offsets Library must be the
difference between the recorded Tool Height and the first initial
recorded Z-axes heigth in the Fixture Offsets Library.

If a pop-up error warning ( _-axis servo error switch has been
tripped. ) occurs after the ZERO AXES process. You will need
to reset the motors to re-position the machine and start the
process over again.
Note: This error warning occurs when the cut mark is lined
up outside of the material edge, which leads the servo motors
to go outside of their homing range and trip the limit switch.

In the top CONTROLLER tab, choose RESET MOTOR DRIVERS
at the bottom of the drop down window.
Now you can re-position the table and Z axis again, but this
time more accurately to successfully zero the axes.
