To find the correct settings of tickle power do the following steps:
1. Warm up the tube by engraving some rubber stamps at full power.
2. Take a very laser sensitive material e.g. laser plastics or soft wood.
3. Reduce the acceleration of the X-axis (settings>options>service:password
„name“) to 1.
4. Engrave an image (please use the sample file „Abnahmetest Alu“ on the CD in
the folder Samples\QS Spoolfiles [copy it into the Spool directory and alter the file
properties from „read only“ to „archive“] ) into the wood and have a look on the
edges (please use a low speed).
5. If you see shadows reduce tickle power, if there are none increase tickle power.
To make sure that your changes take effect always click on apply in the dialog
window.
shadows beside the engraving, caused by too high tickle power
6. Repeat steps 4 to 6 until you´ve found the setting that is necessary to prevent
shadows, but keeps the tube just below firing.
7. Now you´ve adjusted tickle power.
Note: Before you adjust the edit settings of a tube you should always make sure that
tickle power has been set correctly.
For optimum engraving quality a new adjustment of Edit settings and tickle power is
necessary after a certain lifetime of the tube (Recommended after 1000 hours of
operation).
