7.1 Set workpiece zero point
When you create a g-code, a zero point (reference point) is created. This is the starting point of the process. You can
set a zero point at any point on the table.
Figure 5 example zero point
1. Control the plasma head to the desired zero point position
2. See figure 4 number 4. Make sure the red LED indicator is turned off so that the zero point coordinates are
visible. Not the machine coordinates.
3. Now click on the X,Y and Z ZERO (see figure 4 number 2.) or click on ''zero all''. All three positions have now
switched to zero. The zero point position has now been determined.
4. If you want to return to this position, click on ''GO TO XYZ 0'' (see figure 4 number 3.)
