TWO: operation
2.1 Quick Start
In this section, we will briefly introduce how to quickly create a text mark and a
serial number mark; we are first going to align the needle positions for these two
markings on the final work piece of engraving.
Click the [add mark] button on the function panel, and select a Mark
type which you want to establish in the type list, for example, we choose the [text],
click the mouse left button after the mouse move to software‟s middle blank area
which is under the mark editing, then a [text] mark is established by default
parameters. As the following figure:
Note, that the [mark] function panel now, [marking] group has already shown the
mark‟s parameters which related to the mark we established before, as the following
figure:
These parameters depend on the type of mark, that means if you select different
mark type, the parameters will be also different, now [Mark] function panel displays
is the [text] type mark‟s parameters which we just create, these parameters include the
maker‟s location, content, fonts, etc... So far the [text] has been successfully
established.
Now we create another mark with the same method, but we will establish a "serial
number" mark. In the [Add mark], select [text] in the marker type list, Similarly, click
the mouse left button after the mouse move to software‟s middle blank area which is
under the mark editing area, change default " ABC123 "into" 12345 " in [mark]
function panel‟s [content] , changing content is not necessary, here we change it only
to distinguish the contents of two kind markers. Next, in [mark] feature panels on the
right, click [coder type] button on the right side of function panel, then select the type
[serial number] in the coder list , note that at this time the "12345"‟s color has become
red, red indicates that the marker‟s coder type is [serial number], meanwhile, you
already can see [serial number] encoding „s relevant correlated parameters in [marker]

17
function panel‟s [code] group, as the following figure:
These parameters depends on code types, that meaning if you choose a different
coder types, the parameters are also different. Now the [serial number] coder‟s
parameters are displayed. So far, this marker with [serial number] coder has been
successfully established.
In the marker editor area, you create a marker might look like this, as the
following figure:
May be the location of the mark you created is different from my example, it does not
matter, you can use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move the last mark you
established, every time you press on the arrow key, the mark‟s location will
move 1mm to the way you want. In the moving process, you can notice that marking
needle, it will move according with "12345" location‟s changes, this is a main
function of the software. every time you change the mark's location, marking needle
will automatically move to the new marker location.
There is another more efficient way to change the mark‟s position, click the mark to
select an object by mouse, then you will know the mark you chosen is enclosed by an
outline frame, move your mouse on the outline frame , press and hold the left mouse
button can be directly drag the mark to a new location. Similarly, when you drag a
marker to new location, engraving needle will be automatically aligned to the new
location.
Move two marks to the right place, and then we can try to mark this two markers on
your work piece, marking operation is very simple, click [marking] ,and then click
[Start engraving] can be, or just directly Press shortcut key [F9] to start marking, now
marking machine start to work, then the marking machine will mark these two marks
on your work piece, wait marking finished, you will find the contents of the serial
number has already been changed as the following figure:

18
a. The Serial number will change from "12345" to "12346", and this is the
function of serial number coding, each one of serial number marking will be
automatically accumulated one number after the marking is finished, if you
do not change the parameters of Serial number
, it will be a accumulated "1."
So far, we have a preliminary understanding how to use the marking software,
more function will be describe in the following chapters.
b.
c. 2.2 Operation of the file
Click the main file operation button of the ThorX6, the menu of the document
will pop up as the following fig.
d. Establish a new file: create a new file, if an under-editing file is not being
saved, it will remind the user to saving the file.
b．Open: To open a file, egg. The following fig:
e. To “Open” the window will list out all the awaiting marking files of the
corresponding folders in the computer. Select one of them and clip the
“Open” in this window or to press the “Enter” key directly, then the file is
being opened, after open, the file name will displayed in the title bar of the

19
ThorX6 window.
f. c. Save: To Save a current file to the computer, as showing in the following
fig.:
The "Save" window will list all the awaiting print documents in the
corresponding folders of the computer, input a file name in the “file name” column,
then clip “Save” button in the window or to press [Enter] key directly, the file will be
saved.
Note: the function of the saving can only be carried out when the contents of a file is
being modified, it means that to save a newly established file or a newly opened file is
means nothing.
d. Save as: to save the current file with another name. The operation is the same as
above [Save].
e. Most recently used files: In this list it will display several recently used files, click
one of them it will be able to quickly open a file.
2.3 Create and editing of a mark
2.3.1 Create a text mark
Then content of a text mark could be composed by English characters, numerical
numbers, symbols or Chinese characters, and also may contains of related data of
fonts. The mark inscription software contains two kinds of text marks, one is a
standard (Text) mark, the other is (fan shaped text) “curved or radius text”, the only
deference of this two text is the way of arrangements, the basic parameters mostly are
the same, the standard text marking are normally arranged in linear way, whilst the
“fan shaped text” will be arranged according a specific radius or an starting angle,
these two types of marks can be select in the mark list that flicked out when the mark
adding button is pressed. See the following fig.

20
Note: once the type of a mark is being selected, it will not be changed anymore.
Since the establishing way of both the [text] and [fan shaped text] are basically the
same, so here we will introduce their using method all together.
After the text type of mark being selected in the list of marking type, the related
parameters will display in the “marking” panel, this has been introduced before in the
2.1 Quick Start section, here we will brief the functions of the parameters one by one.
Content: As the name suggests, here you can change the marking text.
X, Y, Z: these three parameters used to specify the tag positions in the engraving area.
This position can be varied according to the type of the tag text. Standard [text]
marking position is to indicate the position of the lower left corner of the engraving
tag, whilst the [fan the text] standard position is means of the center arrangement of
the radius of the characters. Here be ware of the “Z”, this “Z” position can only be
enabled when after the Z-axis lifting movements feature are activated. When your
marking machine has possessed a lifting function, the Z position now can be set of the
surface height of the tag engraving.
c. Angle: this is a designated angle that rotates around the X and Y axis, to the
[fan-shaped text], this angle means the start and ending angle of the arrangement of
the fan shaped characters.
d. English Font: Font name of the used English words, numerical numbers, symbols.
e. Chinese font: fonts of Chinese characters that used in tag contents. Note, after you
input a Chinese content, this character must have to select a Chinese character font,
otherwise, the newly created marks will not be normally displayed or to lead an
invalid marking.
f. height and width of the characters: This is the dimension of the marking contents.
Here to be attention, the height and width of the character can not absolutely
determine the size of the characters, which can only be a reference of dimension. The
actual character size will determine finally by deferent fonts in characters. For
example, when a character width is setting as 5mm, the width of numerical number
“1” are normally can not reach 5mm, also along with the change of shape of the
characters the width will also differs, for example, font
"ISOCP.TEF “‟s numerical character “1” is slightly wider than the font of
"STENCIL.TEF". see the following figure:
g. Word spacing: tag the content distance between characters and character.
h. Radius (fan version): fan outside the radius of inscribed circle.
