Dashboard Settings
Auto Focus
Select Auto Focus when you want to use the machine’s Auto Focus capabilities. You can choose between
Thickness, Plunger or O.
Thickness
For the Thickness option, measure the thickness of the material you are using to engrave or cut, and input
the number into the Thickness box under each individual process. The table will automatically move up
or down so that the top of your material is the correct distance from the bottom of the focus lens, right
before running the job.
Plunger
When a job is set to the Plunger option, the plunger will measure the focus distance at the first place
on the job that the laser will fire. The table will automatically move up or down so that the top of your
material is the correct distance from the bottom of the focus lens.
O
This is the default option for Auto Focus. If “O” is selected, the table will not move up or down when the
job starts. When set to “O”, you must use another method of focusing, since the table must be in focus
before running a job.
You may also focus the table using the Manual Focus Gauge or the Auto Focus button on the machine’s
touchscreen. For more information about the Manual Focus gauge, see “Manual Focus” on page 111.
For more information about the touchscreen Auto Focus option, see “Auto Focus” on page 99.
For information on focusing a Dual Source job, see “Focusing a Dual Source Job” on page 148.
