NAVIGATING THE WIZARDS TAB

OVERVIEW

The EZ-Trol II Control System is designed with built-in machining Wizards that will ease your
common G-Code programming tasks. The Wizards library contains a set of geometric patterns that
are commonly encountered in CNC machining jobs. Start your part programming task by selecting
the Wizard that best represents the shape you wish to machine. The user interface will then prompt
you, to select the dimensions and sizes required to machine your desired part. It will also prompt
you to select tools, tool path pattern and speeds of travel. When you are finished the Wizard will
generate the G-Code to machine your selected dimensions. You can string together the output of
numerous Wizards to make a complete CNC part program. This method saves time, especially for
the less experienced programmer.

Clicking the Wizards tab from on any of the EZ-Trol screens will take you to the screen shown
below. This is the main screen for the Wizards section of EZ-Trol.
