Changing Table Size within AWC-608B LCD Panel

Hello,

Im wondering if it is possible to change the working table size within the LCD Panel for the AWC-608B controller. I have a 4' by 4' table and the motors are all connected but it seems to only work with about a 1' by 1' area (I dont have the exact size it moves because the laser is not hooked up - Im trying to get used to the controller before actually firing the laser with it).

At this moment I have a laptop that I can hook up to the controller and use LaserCAD but I prefer using just LCD Panel for now, and then will be purchasing a desktop to run LaserCAD in the future.

Also, if you cannot change the table size without a computer hooked up, can I simply hook up a computer, change the table size and save those settings within the LCD Panel? This way I can use just the LCD in the future?

Thanks,
Heath

Hello Heath:

You need to use LaserCad to make change for system parameters like table size, um value, space speed and others. Under the Options-> System options-> Manufacturer parameters, where you make changes to match your system. Make sure you click "Read" first before changing parameters, then Save the change. After that, you need to hit "RESET" on LCD to apply the change or old parameters will be used till recycling power
