Initial setting: A
IMPORTANT To change an ID, be sure to follow the procedure explained in the Setup Guide.
Cleaning adapter mode
You can change the setting for blowing compressed air into the adapter to remove milling waste after milling finishes.
Selecting High quality makes it easier to remove milling waste but lengthens the milling time. Selecting High speed shortens the milling time but makes it easy for milling waste to remain in the adapter.
Initial setting: Standard
Dust collector
The suction power of the dust collector connected to the machine and the error detection settings can be changed.

If Error detection is set to On, an error message appears in VPanel when an error occurs on the dust collector.

For more information on other settings or detailed operation, refer to the documentation for the dust collector you are using.
