Why this matters
Always keep the preceding sent command and machine state when diagnosing — the number alone can be insufficient context.
How to think about it
Define the result you actually need, then confirm the active machine profile, units and operating mode before changing parameters.
Practical workflow
- Define the result you actually need, then confirm the active machine profile, units and operating mode before changing parameters.
- Change one meaningful variable at a time and use Preview/Frame or offline analysis before running a real job.
- If the issue repeats, keep evidence: Console output, a G-code sample, the exact settings used and material context. Evidence makes troubleshooting reproducible.
If the result is wrong
Always keep the preceding sent command and machine state when diagnosing — the number alone can be insufficient context.
Common mistakes
- Changing several settings at once and then not knowing which change affected the result.
