selects.

Force G40 Kerf Disable
In a part program Kerf is enabled and disabled using EIA G41/ G42 and G40 codes. Standard
operation is to disable Kerf at the cut off even if the G40 Kerf Disable is not in a program. With this
parameter, you can select to turn off the “forced” G40 Kerf Disable if no g40 is used in the program by
setting the parameter to a “Disable” state.
G40 Used in Simple Shapes
Used in conjunction with the Force Kerf Disable parameter this allows the G40 code normally inserted
in to a Simple Shape from the control Shape library to be omitted by setting the parameter to a
“Disable” state.
Auto Start after APA
Used with the Automatic Plate Alignment feature, this allows to user to select to automatically begin
cutting after completion of the Automatic Plate Alignment.
EIA Code 2 Decimal Shift
Some programming styles are structured so that the decimal point in the EIA positioning affecting part
sizing is assumed. The EIA Code 2 Decimal Shift parameter allows the operator to select the location
of the decimal point when translating parts by selecting normal or single for correct translation. The
selection should be set to Normal unless your part programs require two decimal shift to the right of
the decimal point.
Show Traverse Segments
Allows traverse segment lines (displayed in yellow) to be turned OFF or ON during all part preview
displays.
Retain Skew Adjustment
The Retain Skew Adjustment feature is used to retain the last calculated plate skew for all
subsequent parts that are loaded. If disabled any new part that is loaded will remove any previously
calculated plate skew.
