Carvera How to Use

1. Turn On
Use the Back-Switch to turn on the CNC:
The Front-Button shows the status of the machine and is used for stand by, but because of the USB Connection, always use the back-button for tuning on and of the machine
2. Connect and Home
You should always home the machine before milling, (even after starting it as a good practice)!
To do that, open makera controller: 
Connect the software via USB on the top left corner:
Go to the side panel and press 'HOME':
Side Panel Button on the right
Virtual Controller with 'HOME' in the middle
3. Fasten the Workpiece
Then use the controller to move the bed thowards you and fasten your workpiece:
Type of fastening
Example
Clamps 
 Place the clamps on the bad 
and tighten the workpiece with them
Tape 
 on a flat workpiece, place some tape 
 on the bottom equally and just stick it onto the bed
Vacuum
TODO
Screws
TODO
4. Zero
Then go to you work origin and use top left buttons to set it individually:
Or use the button 'Set Origin' in the controller on the right:
Auto Z Probe
Finding the Z-zero-point is more special because of the precision needed for it. For this, the Auto Z Probe can be used like this:
Make sure, the Auto Z Probe is in the tool changer
Place the tool where you want to measure the Zero Point
Go to the controller and press 'ZProbe' 
In this case we set the origin on the bottom of the workpiece.
Before Milling
It is also possible to probe before the milling (the Check-Box with 'Auto Z Probe'):
5. Upload & Start GCODE
First you need to upload a file to the machine, then select it and then, you can run it.
Press the File-Icon on the bottom left (or in the top right hamburger-menu)
Then the carvera file-manager popup appears.
Then go to your folder/ create a new one for you and go to the top right 'Upload File'
Then use the top left to navigate to your file and then use 'Upload&Select' to load the file onto the machine and select it for milling.
Or use 'Upload' then 'Close' on the screen and then 'Select' on the correct file in the other screen.
There should appear a preview of the GCODE, check the path and choosen tools. Then use the Gear-Icon on the bottom left to start the milling.
ALWAYS CHECK THE PATH ON THE BOTTOM!!
Then here deactivate 'Scan Margin' and if allready done 'Auto Z Probe' and press 'RUN'.
