In this example the same text (ABCDEF) is done with a positive diameter value (to the left) and with the same value but negative (to the right). By default, the machine sets the beginning point to 0 (parallel to the X axis). To modify the beginning point, you only have to modify the value of the line angle. Give the text compression from 50% to 150%
Compression is used to deform characters and to modify the width, without changing the height.
Normal compression

5.1.Marking depth and IDI function The marking depth depends on the impact power, and also the distance between the stylus and the part . For M4 inline machine, advised distance is 3 mm. With this tuning the marking depth result is gradual from Force 1 to 6. During integration it may be necessary to modify the distance between stylus and part. Operating range for each force is as follow:
Force 1 : from 1 mm to 4 mm Force 2 : from 2 mm to 6 mm Force 3 : from 2 mm to 8 mm Force 4 : from 2 mm to 8 mm Force 5 : from 2 mm to 8 mm Force 6 : from 2 mm to 8 mm
Respecting the distance stylus-part is fundamental to get the desired marking depth with an optimal marking quality For the weak forces (1, 2 or 3), if the stylus is too far it will not touch the part during the marking. For the high forces (4, 5 and 6 ), more the stylus is far (in the limit of its potential travel of 9mm), more the impact will be powerful. Note: marking small characters with a high force can create an illegible marking. To avoid constraints with the distance settings, Technomark allows you to use the technology IDI. When activating the IDI function (see marking parameters) a suitable marking depth is applied, whatever the distance stylus/part is, in the range of 1 to 8 mm to ensure a constant rendering. When the IDI function is activated, the machine makes a test impact to evaluate the distance and adjust the force used to correspond to what is asked for. IDI function is available in two different modes:
Flat mode: The test impact is done at each beginning of line. This is ideal for flat shapes, with little slope. Note: Ideal to have the same hitting depth on the part, without worrying about the distance. Curved mode: The test impact is done at each beginning of character. This mode allows a constant depth when marking on cylinders, corrugated parts, … Note: Ideal to mark parts with a constant depth when they present an uneven distance along the length of the marking.

Illustration 6 : Serial number edition window
The name field corresponds to the name of your serial number. It has to be unique and different from SHARED. If you edit an existing serial number, this field is grey because you can’t modify it . The Value field is the current value of the serial number. It will be increase by the step value according to the defined frequency (number of markings). For example the Value 2 will become 3 after 5 markings if the step is 1 and the frequency is 5. Other example, the Value will change from 10 to 8 after 3 markings if the step is -2 and the frequency is 3.
The number of characters (digits) shown in the field Value is very important because in the end the serial number won’t have more digits than this one. For example if the Value is 1, the serial number will increase until 9 then will start again to 1. If the Value is 01, the serial number will increase until 99 then will start again to 01 .

None: the serial number isn’t reset. Day : the serial number is reset every day. Value: the serial number is reset when it reaches the maximum value defined in ending at . Team: the serial number is reset for each team change. (see teams) Week: the serial number is reset each week.
The field starting at is the value given to the serial number when it is reset. The field ending at corresponds with the maximum value used when we want a reset on the Value criteria. Once again, the number of digits is essential for the starting at and end at fields. There must be coherence and therefore the same number of digits for all these data . It should be noted that all blank fields have to be filled up, otherwise an error will appear when confirming with

The serial number SHARED is a specific serial number. Share by all f iles of the machine, you can’t delete it. Its current value and its parameters are valid for all the files where it is used.
5.3.2. Add a variable
A variable is a non frozen text with fixed parameters which can be changed at each marking. Either manually, or with a bar code reader connected to the machine. Variables are defined for one file except for the VSHARED var iable common to all the files. When a variable is inserted in a marking line, it’s the value of this variable which is marked . A scrolling menu allows choosing among the variables:
Create a new variable
Use the VSHARED variable
Use a bar code variable
Use an existing variable

If you edit an existing variable, this field is grey because you can’t modify it. The length field corresponds to the number or characters of the variable. If the value entered is longer than length, it will be shortened to the number of characters of length. The Forcing field allows erasure of the variable value for each marking. So you have to enter it before each marking. The value field is the current value of the variable. CB variable configuration (CB, CB1 and CB2) presents an additional option:
The allocation allows defining how CB variables are filled when more than one is used.

Sequence: variables are filled in the order the bar codes are scanned. The first scan fills CB, the second CB1, and the third CB2. Length: the bar code length read correspond to a variable length and the content is affected as a function of this length.
Some additional variables CB can be created and named from CB3 to CB9. In this case, it must be created one by one in order and not forgetting a digit. For example, you can’t have a variable CB3 and a CB5 without CB4.
The value of a variable may be truncated for a marking using a special code in the marking line. Add the code
#AA,BB# after the variable code in the marking line where AA is the index of the first character and BB is the index of the last one. For example, for using the value from the third to the eighth character of the variable VAR, the marking line will be the following:
The variable VAR containing the text ABCDEFGHIJKLMN, the text CDEFGH will be marked. In the same way, a variable can be also truncated using a separator character with the code #S,AA#. In this case, S is the separator character and AA is the index of the block. For example, with a variable VAR we want to use only the second block with a separator / on the variable VAR.
If the value of VAR is 123/456/789, the marked text will be 456. The same variable can be truncated as many times as needed. You only need to include the variable in another line and adding the desired code format.

8.3.Mechanics The marking window can be configured according to the mechanic (initial setting set up in factory):
Illustration 27 : mechanical settings window
Window : correspond to the real mechanical window, depending on your mechanical type: 50x55, 120x55, and 200x55. Bidirectional : the bidirectional mode allows reducing marking times by using the ability to the machine to mark in one direction or the other Off: the machine marks each line from the beginning to the end of the line. o On : the machine optimize the route and can invert the marking direction o Optimized speed : allows selecting the speed to which the machine will go to the first marking point. It can have the value « off », standard or high. If the value is set to « off », the machine will move to the first marking point with the programmed speed of the file. 3rd axis: you can choose in the accessory list which one is connected with the third axis of your marking machine.

File Open: opening a file using input binary combination of inputs having this function. Files that may be open with this function have to be called IO-xxx where xxx corresponds to the binary combination of related inputs. The value of each input with this function is defined by the order in which it appears. The first value is set to 1, the second is set to 2, the third is set to 4, the fourth is set to 8… To open the file IO-003, you need to activate the first and the second input with the function. If the inputs 5, 8 and 10 are set with this function, you have to activated input 5 and 8 and disable the input 10 to open the file IO-003. If the combination doesn’t correspond to any file of the controller, the current file will be used.

If the license number is correct, the field background becomes green. The number in the window title is the machine
serial number which will be asked to get a license number.
8.8.Origins management settings
Illustration 33 : Origin settings window
Start up: enable or disable the origin set of the mechanics at the start. Marking : Indicate the origin set mode of the machine for a marking : o None – no origin set Begin – before the marking o Fin – at the end of the marking o Both : before and after the end of the marking o Parking point : you can define a parking point for you marking head. If this option is set to « On », the marking end will go in the position x and y defined, with the marking speed, instead of coming back to the origin. The field return allows specifying the number of marking at the end of which the head will come back to the origin to avoid positioning issues (maximum 500). This option allows reducing the marking time cycle and/or clears the zone under the machine.
The parking point replaces the origin return during return marking cycles
