The plotter will start scanning the registration marks in accordance with the
distance between the marks that was stored under the selected number in the
registration mark reading area (see Section 6.13, “Setting the Registration
Mark Reading Area”).
4 If you press the F4 key (MANUAL), the following message appears.
Use the POSITION keys to move the pen tip to MARK 1 (Point 1), and then
press the ENTER key.
When Point 1 has been scanned, move the pen tip to MARK 2 (within the Point
2 area) and then perform the same operation as for Point 1.
5 When both points have been scanned automatically or manually, the display
changes to the following (only displayed if OFF has been selected for
DISTANCE ADJUST). The measured value for the distance between points 1
and 2 is shown in the 3rd row. Set the actual distance in the 4th row.

3-point reading (3POINTS)
This procedure explains how to align the coordinate axes based on three points.
The plotter reads the orthogonal points of three registration marks, corrects the tilt
in both coordinate axes, and then performs distance adjustment.
If Custom or Standard has been selected for the registration mark distance
adjustment setting (see Section 6.16, “Setting the DISTANCE
ADJUSTMENT”), and if the Cutting Master (Ver. 3.2 or later) registration mark
function is used, the screen for inputting corrective values is not displayed.
