The Loaded Position Of The Workpiece; Setting The Reference Point For The Cutting Position - Roland EGX-600 User Manual

3-6. Loading Material and Setting the Reference Point for Cutting

The Loaded Position of the Workpiece

You may load the workpiece anywhere on the table.
Butting the workpiece against the guide is a handy way to ensure that the workpiece is always loaded at the same
position. Adjust the height of the guide to match the thickness of the workpiece.

Setting the Reference Point for the Cutting Position

This machine lets you freely change the cutting position. The place where you should set the reference point for the
cutting position changes according to how the data was created with the program. Always loading material at the same
location and keeping the reference point for the cutting position on the machine fixed may make positioning easier.
The reference point for cutting is the location where the X- and Y-axis coordinates are both zero (that is, the X- and Y-axis
origin point). This is also called the home position. This is initially set at the front left of the table.
