Engrave beyond size

Hello!

We have problems engraving with the DSP Controller (cutting works). Everytime when we try to start the engraving, the display shows "Engrave beyond size". But the image we are trying to engrave is very small and definitely not too big.

We can also use the "run box" feature, the laser cutter then drives around the outline without problems (it is just a 1x2cm box).

What could be the problem here?

Move the work away from the edge.
The head needs a little room to accelerate up to engraving speed .

Also, don't forget to set proper "Position Relative" Options-> Position relative
Very important to have the same position as the limit switch setup. Or, it will run opposite direction or reverse image.
