Frame Machine Camera Vision Correction Instructions

Vision Correction Function

Before using the visual function of the frame machine, you must complete a visual alignment process. First, mark the patterns ①②③④ on the engraving target, then take a photo with the camera, and sequentially mark these points on the image in order. Before starting, ensure that no other program is using the frame machine’s camera.

Precautions Before Operation

l Place the engraving paper in the working area. Recommended scale value: 95.

l When performing the visual calibration function, ensure that no other cameras are connected and that the machine’s camera is not in use.

l During visual calibration, do not move the machine or engraving paper, and ensure that all steps are completed in a single session.

l Each marker pattern supports only a single calibration. To perform visual calibration again, you need to engrave a new marker pattern.

l Before performing visual calibration, always reset the machine to prevent it from colliding with the frame during engraving.

l Ensure that the camera lens is perpendicular to the surface of the engraving object to prevent calibration deviations caused by angled views (use a spirit level).

l Adjust the camera to a working distance of 550 mm from the surface of the engraving object to ensure the field of view fully covers the entire machine.

l Ensure the surface of the engraving object is level to prevent calibration deviations caused by unevenness.

l Ensure the bracket is positioned at the center of the machine’s front crossbeam.

Precautions for the Longer B1 Machine

l When using the Longer B1 machine, adjust the canvas size to 430 mm × 430 mm

Modification method:

1. Click on the Serial Log

2. Enter $130=430 and $131=430 separately in the input box. After entering, send $130 and $131 until you see the Canvas update.

Engraving Mark Patterns

You will use your laser to engrave the target pattern on a piece of material and mark the center of the target.

Step 1

After connecting the frame machine, click the camera icon in the menu bar to enter the visual calibration page.

Before entering the visual calibration page, scale and move the canvas aside so that the entire canvas can be fully viewed when the visual function page opens.

Step 2

Enter appropriate speed and power settings to achieve moderate engraving without burning through. Adjust the scale value up or down so that the canvas can accommodate the marker pattern.

Step 3

Click the border preview button to display the marker pattern on the canvas without exceeding the canvas size.

Note: After modifying parameters such as speed, power, or scale, be sure to click the “Border Preview” button again to synchronize the marker pattern on the canvas.

Step 4

Start engraving. If the pattern is not clear enough, you can adjust the settings and run it again. Once the pattern is clearly visible and easy to view, click Next.

Capture Target Mark Image

During this process, you will capture the alignment image. You may need to wait a few seconds on this screen for the camera to successfully capture it.

When the machine’s camera is detected, click the Capture button. You should see the camera view displayed in the lower-left corner of the window, with all four target points visible. The captured image appears on the right, as shown. Click Next once all four target points are clearly visible in the captured image.

Mark the Target

In this step, you need to mark each target by double-clicking the center of each target in sequence.

Hold the spacebar to move the image with the mouse, and use the scroll wheel to zoom in or out to ensure precise clicking on the center. A red marker will appear each time you double-click. If a marker is placed incorrectly, click “Undo Marker” to delete it and try again. Double-clicks must follow the order indicated on the marker pattern (1, 2, 3, 4). Once all four target points are marked, click “Finish” to complete the process.
