Figure 21: General Settings Dialog
Head: Choose the Head for which the driver settings should be edited. The drop down menu is only enabled if the HeadCount is greater than 1.
Driver Settings: Opens the Driver Settings dialog where you can adjust hardware specific settings.
Invert: Each scanner axis can be inverted separately.
Flip: The X and the Y axis can be flipped, so that the X axis gets the Y coordinates and vice versa.
Field [mm]: The size of the field has to be typed in mm.
Min: This value can be negative, so that the field can be set up symmetrically to the origin.
Max: This value is computed as Min + Size.
Size: The edge length is Size. The field is always a square.
Working Area [mm]: The Working Area has a rectangular shape. The area is defined by Min and Max. The Working Area has to be within the Field. Consider rotation too.
Home Position [mm]: If HomeJump is enabled, the scanner goes back to this position after marking. Please see home jump pen for further information.
Gain: The gain values are there to slightly compensate X/Y gain errors to achieve a quadratic field. Please find further information on challenges of using a gain under backgrounds.
Offset [mm]: With the offset values you can slightly compensate X/Y offset errors to achieve the theoretical midpoint of the scanner field. Global offset errors which have the same deviation in X and Y direction should be corrected by changing the Field parameters.
Rotation [deg]: The scanner output will be rotated counter clockwise by this angle.
Laser: Type in Type and Ver as advised by SCAPS.
Z-Axis [mm]: This option is only for Optic3D.
Z Home Position [mm]: If HomeJump is enabled, the scanner goes back to this position after marking.
Z Offset [mm]: Adds an offset to all Z values.
USC cards: XY coordinates are not compensated, like Pen Defocus.
RTC cards: XY coordinates are compensated, unlike Pen Defocus.
