2 – Machine Setup
When you enter a homing command, the CNC moves the axis toward the home switches at the Fast Home
Speed until the switches activate. Once the switches activate, motion stops and then the axis moves in the
opposite direction off switch at the Slow Home Speed. The moment that the switch deactivates, the CNC
records the position which provides an absolute reference point for future motion commands.
Absolute Home Position: Defines the position of the axis when the Home Limit Switch or Marker Pulse is detected.
Home Offset Distance: Allows the user to set an offset distance from the Home Limit Switch.
Home Direction: Determines which direction the axes will travel during phase one of the homing sequence.
Use Marker Pulse: When enabled, the absolute home position will be assigned at the instant the marker pulse is
detected. It is recommended that the Marker Pulse be used for optimal homing repeatability.
Use Software Travel Limits: The CNC is capable of running with software Overtravel limit switches based on position.
When enabled, this feature allows the user to select the fault logic of fault or Fast Decel when active. Fault
operates as hardware switches with immediate fault. Fast Decel uses the fast Decel value to ramp down
motion.
Maximum/Minimum Travel Limit: If Software Overtravels are enabled, the user is prompted for the maximum or
minimum travel of the cutting machine.
Mirrored Marker Offsets: Allows preset tool offsets to be performed as mirrored motion for the transverse 2 axis.
Laser Compensation: Uses position readings gathered with a laser interferometer to correct the actual position of the
axes (Transverse, Dual Transverse, Rail, and Dual Gantry only).
