1. System speed

This menu sets the speed of cutting of your sheets.

Changing the system speed can affect the cutting accuracy and positioning of your cuts.
The selectable options are 1-9 . 1 being the slowest and 9 the fastest setting.

As an example and using an SRA3 sheet for 85mm x 54mm cards (21 cards to cut) the system on 
setting 1 will take 9 seconds to cut the sheet and on 9 it takes 7 seconds to cut the sheet.

The BC480 will have been programmed and tested prior to shipping and so the value set in this 
menu should not be changed. However, if it has to be changed, we advise you do not set this to 
more than 8.

If you need to change the speed setting this can be done by using the  

 or 

 buttons.

2. System accuracy compensation

This refers to the scaling
This is set prior to shipping and should not be adjusted.
