7.6 Setting the DISTANCE ADJUST Values
The DISTANCE ADJUST function is used to correct any deviation in the length of line segments during
cutting or plotting. The corrective values are input as a percentage of the actual distance of cutting or
plotting. For example, when the X= parameter is set to 0.05%, the cutting distance in the X-axis direction
will be increased by 0.05%. For a 500-mm cutting distance, therefore, the resulting distance is increased
by 0.25 mm (500 × 0.05 = 0.25 mm) to 500.25 mm.
