The
Options area contains the following settings:
- Machine safe Z — Click the control bar and enter:
- a value in the
Safe Z box to specify the height at which the tool makes rapid moves between toolpath segments. This value must be sufficient to clear any clamps used to hold your material block or sheet in position.
- values in the
X,
Y, and
Z boxes to specify the coordinates of the tool's start and end position. This should be a safe distance away from the material block or sheet.
- Click to define material — Click the control bar and specify the block or sheet of material using the
Material Setup dialog. When you specify the material settings, the material's thickness is displayed on the control bar. To change the settings, click
Setup.
