Joystick Calibration

How do I calibrate the joystick on the Fusion Maker, Edge, Pro, and Galvo?

Introduction

Overview

The display calibration ensures the accuracy joystick when moving the carriage assembly and x-axis assembly.
The display calibration rarely needs to be completed and should only be performed if joystick accuracy issues, delayed movements, or exaggerated movements are observed

  5. The engraver will prompt the user to make circles with the joystick. After a period of a few seconds, the engraver will prompt the user to let go of the joystick.
