© 2019 Vision Engraving Systems
The Set Origin button is used to set a user defined home location.
To define an origin location, use the X & Y jog buttons to move the spindle to a point you want to set as
the origin. Press the Set Origin button.
The X and Y relative values will change to 0. This position is now set as the origin (0,0) position.
To reset the origin back to the machine's default location at the upper left corner of the table, select the X
absolute box and enter 0. Then select the Y absolute box and enter 0.
Select Set Origin. The default origin will now be set.
NOTE: 14 different origins can be stored in the Vision Series 5 controller. To select a different origin to
be saved, select the back button on the Set XYZ screen. Press the select button to the right of the
origin area. Select the Active button of the desired origin origin to be used. Selecting the right arrow
next to the word Origins will scroll to origins 9 through 14. Select OK and then select Set XYZ to set the
origin location.
IMPORTANT: When using an origin other than 1, it must be selected in the Vision software. To do this,
select the Engrave menu and then Tool Options. Change the preset home position value to the desired
origin location.
