22 Laser settings
• "Seamless loop":
The check box becomes available if "Continuous trigger" is set for "Trigger mode" in "File
settings". Select the check box to improve the marking quality. With this function, the laser
radiates continuously without break at the position where the start and end points overlap.
To use the seamless loop function, set only one object with a closed line in one marking
file. You cannot use this function if the marking file contains two or more objects. To
create a closed line set the start and end points to the same position.
The seamless loop function cannot be applied, if the following functions are set in the
marking file:
‒ Multiple objects
‒ Objects consisting of unclosed lines
‒ Point radiation
‒ "Step & repeat" function
‒ "File settings" > "Trigger settings" > "Scan interval [s]"
‒ LP-GS (except LP-GS051-L): "Function settings" > "External offset" > "Z-movement
• "Starting point", "Ending point":
Specify these parameters to fine-tune the time until the laser starts or ends radiating at
the start or end point. With a larger value you can achieve a darker (deeper) marking
result at the start and end point.
The settings apply to all objects in the marking file. For the start and end point of bar code
and 2D code objects, you can specify other values under "Customize starting/ending
point by object".
(1) Light (shallow marking)
(2) Optimal
(3) Dark (deep marking)
(4) Small value
(5) Large value
Small setting values impact the marking result. The marked characters may be partially chipped.
• "Waiting time":
With this parameter, you can adjust the time until the laser starts radiating at the start
point of each line. The setting applies to all line segments.
