Setting the XY datum

< Previous | List | Next >

We now need to set the XY datum. 

The longest side of our sign will be along the X axis of the SmartBench. Our datum needs to be at the bottom right corner of the stock material, as shown on the diagram.

A: Stock material

B: Spoilboard

Use the PRO app on the SmartBench console to move the Z Head to the bottom right corner of the stock. 

Press the SET button at the bottom of the screen to set the XY datum.
