At this point you have to decide if the difference in the length measurements warrants recalibrating your machine. Record the number (Machine Measured Length – _inches) and compare it to the length you measured by hand. Press the “1” key on the keypad to measure the Length. The display will then ask for the direction the user wishes to measure. This can be accessed by pressing the “7” (Measure) key on the keypad or by using the up/down arrows to navigate to the measure function from the CarveWright Main Menu. Load the board into your machine and measure it using the “Measure Board” function.
Make sure to perform the measurement in the center of the board width, as this is where the machine will also measure (Hand Measured Length – _inches). Measure and record your board length with as much accuracy as you can get. This is the edge that the board tracking sensor roller will be running on and measuring. It is very important that the board edge that is placed into the machine up against the squaring plate be very clean and free of defects. To do this calibration you will need a board roughly 36″ long that is clean and straight. You will want to consider calibrating the X-axis if you are consistently getting an incorrect board length measurement or if you are replacing the factory sandpaper belts with the rubber belts. There are three calibration settings that can be changed by the user: the X axis (in and out direction), the Y axis (side-to-side direction) and the board thickness settings can all be adjusted.Calibrating the X-AxisThe most frequently calibrated setting is the X-axis. The “Calibrate Offsets” function allows the user to fine tune the machine’s calibration settings for best tracking and measuring performance.
