Now you need to place the cutter at the height you want your Z datum (typically either the
top or bottom surface of the material, depending on the job).
To set the Z height with the Z probe:
•
Go to the Move screen.
•
Take out the Z probe plate from its holder.
•
Remove the front of the dust shoe.
•
Place the Z probe plate directly below the cutter tip.
•
Make sure the back of the probe plate lies flat on the surface you are trying
to probe. The probe plate should be silver side up.
•
If the tip of the cutter isn’t close to the top of the stock, manually move it
downwards to about 10mm (3/8’’) away from the probe
using the Z down
button (Red). Take care not to overshoot!
•
When close, press the
‘
Z
0’
button (Green). The Z head will automatically
lower until the tool tip touches the probe plate (on touching, an electrical
circuit is closed, the software remembers this position, and subtracts the
thickness of the probe plate).
•
When the cutter retracts, the Z datum is set.
