106 MaxMotion for Machines

Control Pad (Ctrl+P)

The standard 10-Key key-pad (Control Pad) on the keyboard is

functionally made available to control the X,Y,Z table. Most of the

functions offered in the control Pad are off-line. The machine is

controlled from the keypad. It is positioned properly before a job is

sent from the computer. The arrow keys and FAST key move the table

in the X, Y direction at either regular speed or high speed. Z control

keys move the tool up or down. SURFACE key defines the assigned Z

= 0 position for the job. HOME key moves the tool to the X = Y = Z =

0 position, if the machine is equipped with limit switches.

Note the 10 key keypad that allows you to jog the machine anywhere

you want. However, the Z-up and Z-down were designed to drive a

stepper motor in Z axis just like for X and Y axis. The Z controls on

the 10 key keypad can additionally be useful for machines using

solenoids type devices controlling the air pressure to move the Z axis.

In case of a Z axis controlled by a solenoid, the Z-down key will allow

you to move the axis down to adjust the depth movement of the

engraving tool. Releasing the Z-down key will result in retracting of the

engraving tool.

The only two keys that are active during an execution of a job is

PAUSE and SPACE BAR. While the machine is in the middle of

performing a job, depressing the PAUSE key will halt the operation. At

this point, depressing the SPACE BAR key will resume the operation or

depressing the ESC key will terminate the job.
