7E and 7Ex Edger - Axis Calibration

Calibrate the Axis upon installation of the 7E.  After that, perform the axis calibration only when necessary.  

To calibrate the Axis: 

1. Chuck a pattern with the PDA on the same side of the raised lines on the pattern. 

2. From the Job Screen, press the Setup function key F8. 

3. Press the Calibration function key F5. 

4. Press the Axis function key F3 which takes you to a Job Screen set up for axis calibration. 

5. Press the green start button; then wait until the cycle ends. 

6. Remove the pattern and physically examine it: Check the axis.  The point should be on the 180° line (see drawing shown below).  
     

7. If the point does not line up with the 180° line, adjust the Axis Adjustment field and recut. If the point is above the line, make a negative adjustment to the Axis Adjustment (a positive adjustment if the point is below the line) and then recut. Repeat the process until the point lines up with the 180° line. Check the point to make sure it lines up with the 180° line.  

Note If you prefer to think of moving the line relative to the point of the 58 mm, you can adjust the Axis Adjustment field—positive to move the line clockwise, negative to move the line counter-clockwise.
