Setting The Offset Angle - GRAPHTEC FCX4000 SERIES User Manual

7.3

Setting the Offset Angle

This plotter analyzes the cutting data, and controls the angle of the cutter blade tip if the change in the angles of
the corner is large.
Angle control is applied if there is larger angle change than the angle specified as reference angle.
The time to cut is shortened by setting large value for the reference angle, since it will only apply blade control
when there are angles with large angle change, hence reducing the time to make the blade control.
But, if it is set too large, there will be not enough angle control of the blade, and the cut result may differ from what
was expected. Set the reference angle in good balance.
Supplement
This setting will be saved even if the power is turned off.
