Using the Touch Plate Accessory

The Touch Plate is an optional accessory available through Next Wave Automation or its
authorized distributors that can be used to obtain faster, more accurate setting of the z axis
zero.
Just plug it into the jack on the left side of CNC Piranha FX/XL Pendant.
Next press the App button and go to the Touch Plate Setup App.
Attach the magnet to the router bit collar and place the plate on top of the material directly
under the bit. Then Tap Press to Run and the CNC Piranha FX/XL will ask to perform a test as
below.
Raise the touch plate to enough to make momentary contact with the bit, the screen will turn
red and you may proceed. If the screen does not turn red, try repositioning the magnet and
repeat procedure. Once you make the proper contact press ok to begin movement.
