User Interface
CNC control functions
CNC functions control the stage position, joystick behavior and CNC
motors.
Goto
The Goto functions control the CNC stage. Clicking Goto Position
moves the CNC stage to a specified coordinate. Clicking Goto Click or
Goto Selected Feature moves the stage to a mouse location clicked on
the Part View window or to the center of a selected feature. The Goto
functions can be used anytime, but are typically used during a program-
ming session or during program execution. Detailed descriptions of the
Goto functions are contained in Chapter 8: Programming Chapter 8: Programming.
Joystick
The Joystick functions control the resolution of joystick motion, limit motion to a single axis
and enable/disable automatic part following when part alignment has been performed.
These joystick functions are not included in part programs, but are typically used by the operator during
programming sessions or program execution. Detailed descriptions of the joystick functions are contained
in Chapter 8: Programming Chapter 8: Programming.
Motors off
Checking the Motors Off menu item disables CNC motor operation. Clicking the Motors Off menu item
toggles the check mark on and off.
Capture Image
Clicking Capture Image creates a bitmap (bmp) file of the current camera image and
stores the file in the QC5000\Parts folder using a name that includes time and date
information.
The Capture Image function can also be launched by pressing the Control and F8
computer keyboard keys simultaneously.
