  • Move tool to origin and set the x, y, and z coordinates to zero by click Touch Off in LinuxCNC or by pressing Select + Direction Pad.
  • Home machine by clicking Home All in LinuxCNC or by pressing Start + Select at the same time.
  • Turn on CNC router by rotating E-stop button clockwise.
  • Clamp down workpiece (Always use a spoil board!).
  • Transfer gcode file to cncrouter computer using USB stick or /vsfs01/share directory.
  • Create gcode: File -> Run Post Processor.
  • Visualize the job with Mode -> Simulation.
  • Set feeds and speeds (flip to other side for help).
  • Create operations that assign tools to layers.
  • Set job options (Options -> Job Options).
  • Check machine options (Options -> Machine).
  • Import drawing into SheetCAM (svg or dxf).
  • Below is the general outline of this approach. If carving a 2D design like a sign, this is the quickest and simplest method. One method of getting from idea to CNC routed part is to create your CAD design in Inkscape, then use SheetCAM to generate the tool paths.

    The first is the most simple, the second more challenging but more powerful. There are many ways to complete this workflow, but included in this section are descriptions of how to make a successful cut with two different sets of software. The Phoenix and AXYZ CNC routers can both be controlled using their respective gamepad controllers. PROCEDURE General Controls and Configuration
