F10 – Shutdown
Use to enter the Shutdown menu. This menu allows you to park the machine, power off the control,
start a command window or exit CNC software.
F1 – Park Use this to park the machine at the end of the day for quicker machine homing at
startup. Once F10- Park is selected, The CYCLE START key must be press to start
machine movement. The park feature homes each axis, at the maximum rate, to ¼ of
a motor revolution from its home position.
F2 – Poweroff Use this to properly shutdown the control. With most controls, this action turns off
the control once the system has prepared itself to be shutdown. Just like a desktop
computer, the control should be properly shutdown before turning off the power in
order to reduce the risk of corrupting data on the hard drive. This will only turn off
the control. The machine itself will still need to be manually turned off.
F6 – System Prompt This brings up the command line interface. Type the command exit to exit the
command window.
F9 – Exit CNC11 Use this to exit the CNC control software.
