size of the original geometry defined in the DXF file. Note that the values you enter for positioning the Z axis are unaffected by the scale factor.
8.Decimals - The number of decimal places to use for all coordinates. A higher number can help eliminate extra backlash compensation moves caused by rounding error.
9.Join Tolerance – If two drawing entities, such as two lines, are touching end to end, LC treats them as a single feature to machine without lifting the tool. Due to rounding or drawing error, two entities that are meant to be joined may not actually touch end to end. The DXF import will automatically join any entities whose endpoints are less than the Join Tolerance apart.
10.Line Numbers – Check this box if you want the DXF import to number all of the
11.Incremental Depth of Cut - The incremental depth for each milling pass. For example if the final tool down is
12.Tool Up - The height (program coordinates) to which the tool will move before rapid moves between two features.
13.Final Tool Down (Milling) - The final depth (program coordinates) to which the tool will cut each feature.
14.Final Tool Down (Holes) - The final depth (program coordinates) to which the tool will cut each hole.
15.Program Zero Location
16.X, Y of Import File - The X and Y location in the DXF file that LC will place at the program origin in the
17.Lower Left of Toolpath - Defines program zero as the lower left point of the imaginary box that envelopes all geometry contained in the DXF file.
18.Circles - Defines diameters for circles that will be drilled (at the center point) instead of milled along the perimeter.
19.XY Feedrate - The feedrate for all milling operations in the XY plane.
20.Plunge Feedrate - The feedrate for all downward Z axis moves.
