Engraving Accelerartaion Issue

Machine error (German): Nicht genug erw. Sper Bitte "Esc"
Machine error (English):

When engraving elements are placed very close to the edge of the work area, the laser head cannot accelerate/decelerate in the X direction enough. The head needs some space to speed up or slow down.

Solution: Place the engraving pattern farther away from the edge of the work area. Alternatively, move the origin closer to the center of the machine bed.
