| − | + | The "Setup" tab is used for two stages of setup. First, for setting up the proper pen up and down stops for the objects you will be drawing on. Then, as you set each object up in the EggBot frame and subsequently unload it, you will again use this tab to raise the pen and disengage the motors. (Having the motors disengaged makes it easier to align the object for precise drawing.) | |
| − | + | To draw on an object, the EggBot lowers the pen to the "pen down" height and then rotates the egg or moves the pen or a combination of the two. When a section of the drawing is finished and the pen needs to be repositioned without actually drawing, the pen is raised into the "pen up" height. The act of raising the pen is a "pen up" operation; the act of lowering the pen is a "pen down" operation. The physical raising and lowering of the pen is accomplished with the pen lift motor -- a servo -- whose arm (a "servo horn") lifts or lowers the distal pen arm. Assuming that the servo arm is attached such that it is roughly horizontal in the middle of its range, then a pen position of 0% corresponds to vertical down, 50% to horizontal, and 100% to vertical up. EggBot Control sets the pen up and pen down positions as a percentage of this range of travel. | |
| − | + | The pen-up and pen-down positions, as percentages of the servo's full range of travel are set in the '''Pen up position''' and '''Pen down position''' fields. Changes will not take effect until you click the "Apply" button. Good starting value are 60% (up) and 40% (down). You can adjust them as needed, but keep the pen-up value higher than the pen-down value. | |
| + | |||
| + | The '''Action on Apply''' selection lets you select what will happen when you click the '''Apply''' button. It can either toggle the pen up and down, or raise the pen and disengage the main motors. | ||
| + | |||
| + | After you have set the desired values, click the "Apply" button to perform that action. | ||
