4.1 Machine control - left sideHere all jog options are defined (Fig. 7). One joystick for moving the Xand Y axis into + or – direction. Also an extra panel to move the Z-axisup and down. In case of more than one Z-axis or other additional axesyou can switch between all extra axes by pressing the letter of theaxis.
With this you can switch through all additional axes and jog them in +/-with the up/down arrows.
The increment panel with the button “Incr. step” is to activate the incre-mental move mode of the CNC. Then you can define a step size,which is used when you press any jog +/- button. With activated incre-mental jog the axes will always move the defined step size.

Feed override
For the feed override you have plus andminus buttons to change immediately insteps of 1, 5 or 10%. Additionally there arethree buttons to change the feed overridewith one click to 25, 75 or 100%. You alsohave one button to change with one click to0% and if you press again to go back to theprevious value (you can see instead of 0 theprevious value on this button). In the middleof the feed override you can find the set andactual speed of the movement.

5 Job controlThe job control window has two different views. The view and function-ality is dependent on the actual CNC status. If the program is activeyou can see functions which are made to affect the machine during thecutting process. If no program is active all functions are displayedwhich are used for setting up parameters before the start of a program.

If you activate this mode the dis-tance control will be deactivatedautomatically.
By deactivating the test-run modethe distance control type is set tothe old value before the test-runmode.
In some cases it is necessary touse the distance control in test-run mode, and then you can justactivate the distance controlagain in the distance control set-tings.
To use a different speed in test-run mode you can define a test-run speed with “Set test-runspeed”.

Fig. 14: Height Options
Function Description
Height options (Fig. 14)
With “Height options” you candefine which type is used to setthe cutting height.
Generally it is possible to specifythe "C2C" (contour to contour)height independent from thechosen option. Thereby theheight will be determined, onwhich the Z-axis will operatebetween the sheets. The relativevalue will be specified, thatmeans the axis will be liftedbetween these sheets with thisvalue.
Table 2: Options
Act Z The Z-axis height will be at afixed height.
Manual inputYou can put in an absolute posi-tion which is used by the Z-axisfor cutting height.
PlatethicknessThe height will be read from theNC program or the CAM soft-ware. The focus shows the dis-tance between nozzle and sheet.
OnceInput the cutting height and theC2C height, Z-axis will touch thesheet at the beginning of cuttingprocess to adjust the height.
