2.1.2 [1] KerfWidt (kerf width): kerf
compensation, 0 is for no compensation, press
[ENTER] to confirm and save (It’s better to set
kerf compensation in nesting software). If the
program has G41 or G42, and choose “G41/
G42 is valid” in CTRL, the kerf width is valid.
The parameter will keep the same till next
change. It’s an important parameter to affect
cutting size and check it before cutting.
2.1.3 [2] RotAngle (rotation angle): set the figure’s rotation angle, default is 0, no rotation.
The parameter will keep the same till next change.
2.1.4 [3] Scale: set figure’s scale, default is 1, the actual figure is the same big as cutting
figure (the scale is changed based on last scale). It will return to 1 after exit AUTO cutting.
2.1.5 [4] Idle Run: analog cutting at idle run speed. There is no output control. Speed
adjustment, torch lifting and others are valid. External input is valid (emergent stop, limit
position, etc); The parameter will keep the same till next change.
2.1.6 [5] X Mirror: figure’s mirror for X axis. The parameter will keep the same till next
change.
2.1.7 [6] Y Mirror: figure’s mirror for Y axis. The parameter will keep the same till next
change.
2.1.8 [7] StartPoi (change start point): change torch’s initial position (X mark is initial
position out of figure). The parameter will keep the same till next change.
2.1.9 [F]: Adjust multiplying power: during cutting, press F, then press any number button
(1~9) to adjust speed multiplying power, for example, press F and 1, current speed changes
to 10%, press F and 0, change to 100%. This function is to adjust current speed, if this
moment it’s G00, G00 speed multiplying power will be adjusted.
2.1.10 [X] Zoom In: zoom in the figure (at most operation 3 times, 8 times of previous
figure)
2.1.11 [Y] Zoom Out: zoom out the figure (at most operation 3 times, 1/8 times of previous
figure)
2.1.12 [G] Recover: recover the figure to previous size
2.1.13 [Start]: green button, press it to automatically cut the figure
For flame cutting, when preheat to press [Start], preheat can over in advance, the controller
will record the sum of preheat time for next pierce, when torch lifting and ignition and other
delay time to press [Start], they can over, but don’t change future delay time.
2.1.14 [Pause]: pause the cutting
When cut to pause, whether the torch rises according the option of “torch rises after
pause”. For flame cutting, torch stops moving and cutting oxygen is closed and keep gas
and preheat oxygen output (flame doesn’t break); for plasma cutting, torch stops moving
and plasma power arc strike signal is closed.
For flame cutting, when preheat delay time to pause, the controller will increase 100s of
preheat time, press [Start] to over preheat, then begin to pierce and cut. The controller
records the sum of preheat time for next pierce, or directly press pierce button to over delay
time, begin to pierce and cut, doesn’t accumulate preheat time, previous preheat time is
valid for next pierce.
