+ | **S-curve smooth filtering** specifies the time the controller gives the machine to adjust its acceleration during sharp turns. A larger value allows for a larger impulse time, resulting in reduced stress and shocks to the machine hardware. 41ms is recommended. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Look Ahead Break Angle**. If the angle is larger than this, the machine will stop at corner completely in order to allow for a sharper cut. An example of such a cut is shown in the image below: | ||

+ | **2D Cutting** is used on plasma/gas machines which lack a configurable z-axis. This option is turned OFF by default. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Step-jog count** specifies whether the user wants the machine to monitor the inputs sent to it as it is already moving or not. If selected, the machine will count however many signals are sent to it even if it is moving already, if not selected then the machine will ignore other signals until it has completed its initial movement. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Sync G0 & (G1, G2, G3) Overspeed** allows the user to sync the rapid and cutting speeds, allowing the user to use one set of buttons (shown in the screenshot below) to change them at the same time. | ||

+ | **Creep Speed** specifies the speed of the machine after it begins to cut into the working material. It is advisable to set it to be lower than the actual working speed for a small portion of time at the start of the cut. This time is specified in seconds. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Overspeed**. The Jog, G0 and G1, G2, G3 Overspeeds signify the value by which the speed is higher/ | ||
