joystick. Once the focus position has been established, remove the gauge. Press
the Reset key.
If your material has a taper or curve, pick an intermediate point between the
highest and lowest points being engraved and focus on that point. In general, the
area of the material being engraved needs to be relatively flat. If the area being
engraved differs in height by more than about an 1/8th of an inch (3 mm), the
image will begin to look "fuzzy" or out of focus.
Manually Focus Anywhere on the Table: If you wish to focus at a point on the
table other than in the upper left corner you can do so by activating the Jog
feature of the machine. Press the Arrow keys on the keypad until the light next to
Jog is illuminated. This now activates the Joystick to allow you to move the lens
carriage of the laser to the desired position on the table. Again, varying the
pressure applied to the joystick will vary the speed at which the lens carriage
moves to the desired position on the table. Once the lens carriage is located over
the desired portion of the table, use the procedure above for raising and lowering
the table until the focus gauge touches the top of the material.
After you have focused, press the Reset key to send the carriage back to its Park
position.
There is a handy Focus gage holder built into both the left and right front of the
Fusion.
