Like the Manual Mode functions, Backup and Forward on Path use the currently selected
move speed. The different speeds allow moving rapidly along the path, or precisely
positioning the cutting device.

When a cut loss occurs, the initial backup and forward speed is the one that was used last.
To toggle between the move speeds, press the Change Move Speed soft key in the Pause
window. The corresponding speed is displayed in the Move Speed window.

Move to Pierce/Mark
Press the Move to Pierce/Mark soft key to move directly to any pierce point.


Enter the information for the pierce point and press Enter. The cutting device moves
directly to the selected pierce point.

Change Cut Mode
Alternates the restart mode between Cut and Trial. This allows the operator to move
through the part partially as a trial cut and partially as an actual cut.

Change Move Speed
Cycles through the four move speeds that are available. The four move speeds are the
Maximum Machine Speed, High Jog Speed, Medium Jog Speed and Low Jog Speed from
the Speeds setups.

Change Consumable
Opens the Change Consumable screen.

On-Path Restart
To restart the cut at the pierce point that you selected using On-Path Backup, press the
START key. The cut speed and the cut mode are the same as they were before the motion
was paused unless the values have been edited in the Watch window.

While the Pause Window is displays, the manual arrow keys are fully functional so you
can move the cutting device. This allows you to move the machine in any direction (not
necessarily along the path) to inspect the partially cut piece. Once the cutting device is
moved off the cut path, the Off-path Pause Window displays.
