SPEED
During an engraving job, or when the laser is idle at Home Position, the Speed of the
job can be viewed on the control panel by pressing the SPEED button. In Raster
mode you can change the speed on the fly. Speed can only be changed on the fly in
Raster Mode. You cannot change the Speed on the fly during Vector cutting.

Pressing the SPEED button while engraving will change the display to show the
Speed setting of the job while it is running (see diagram above). Pressing the UP or
the DOWN key will increase or decrease the speed of the carriage. Normally you will
need to increase or decrease the Speed by 20% or more before you start to notice a
visible change in the speed. Changing the Speed on the fly is a useful way to
experiment to get just the right Speed setting for a material that you are not used to
engraving. You cannot change Speed on the fly in Vector mode.
You can also change the Speed from the laser system when it is in idle mode. To do
this, press the SPEED button, then press the UP or DOWN button to change the
Speed. Press GO and the job will run at the changed Speed setting, not the setting
that was sent from the computer.
