 Height mapping allows to correct the G-code program for abnormalities and slight surface variations of the working material by mapping out the height map of the working material prior to beginning the cutting job. This function is extremely useful when dealing with a working surface which might be oriented imperfectly or may have some abnormalities to it, as well as programs which require a high degree of precision.
-The function is currently being tested for the X1366M, X1366M4 and X1366M6 profiles. In order to perform the height mapping procedure, do the following:
