Cutting Table Focus Lens Calibration

To properly use the cutting table with the Auto-Z feature in the printer driver, the cutting table must be
calibrated to the lens you are using. This is done at the factory when the laser system ships. You can check
calibration by using the manual focus tool to focus on the surface of the cutting table. Make sure to use the
manual focus tool included with the lens installed in the laser system and that the lens selected in the system
tab matches the lens installed in the laser system. Once focused, the Z position indicated in the UCP should
be 0" +/-.020" (.508 mm). If not, recalibrate the table by selecting the cutting table Calibrate button in the
system tab and following the instructions.
