To improve the ease of use for the part program designer and control operator, the marker font
generator always inserts a traverse segment to return to the original start point at the beginning
of the marking text.

Internal Fonts
The internal fonts located within the control software are 1” high and are limited to characters
available on the control keypad. Alphabetical characters are limited to upper case letters only.
30B
External Fonts
External fonts can be loaded from a floppy disk or from the control hard drive. When the CNC
generates the text, the CNC searches for part files to correspond to the selected character. The
part file names must be based on their ASCII numeric equivalent and have a .txt file extension.
For example, for the marker text “Ab 12”, the control searches for the following files to
generate the text:
Text ASCII No. File Name
Capital A 65 Ascii65.txt
Lower case b 98 Ascii98.txt
Space 32 Ascii32.txt
No 1 49 Ascii49.txt
No 2 50 Ascii50.txt
