file preview window watchfilechanged watch job file for changes determines if current job file should be monitored for changes if this is enabled and the file changes, a message is shown watchautoload auto load watched file determines if current job file should be automatically loaded once it changes please note that if the system's state is not ready at the moment of file change, then the reload is deferred until the system is ready watchautorun auto run watched file determines if current job file should be automatically started once it changes please note that if the system's state is not ready at the moment of file change, then the reload is deferred until the system is ready use caution with automatic file run if the file changes during a job, then it will be automatically started again once the job finished while this is desired in some situations, it can lead to unintended results startupautoload auto load file on startup determines if a job is automatically loaded on startup startuploadfilename file to load on startup the job file that is automatically loaded on startup if startupautoload is enabled startupautorun auto run file on startup determines if startup job file should be automatically started use caution with automatic file run the file will be automatically run after startup, meaning that the machine will start moving without delay while this is desired in some situations, it can lead to unintended results invertjogkeysx invert x jog keys inverts − and + keys in the jog panel dialog and for keyboard jogging for the x axis invertjogkeysy invert y jog

z axis rotatexyjogkeys90 swap x and y jog keys swaps x and y axis jogging buttons in the jog panel dialog and for keyboard jogging disablekeyboardjogging disable keyboard jogging disables keyboard jogging feature if you do not use keyboard jogging (or prefer the jog panel dialog), disabling keyboard jogging prevents unintended motion keyboardtimeout keyboard time out threshold determines maximum allowed delay at which, if it cannot be determined that a keyboard key is still held in, then all jogging is stopped keyboard time out triggers when the software cannot detect that a key is still pressed this prevents the machine from moving too far in the event that the keyboard is experiencing some kind of malfunction or connection issue if keyboard time out triggers too frequently, this value can be adjusted by a small margin at the time, as the correct value depends on individual computer and keyboard however, it is recommended to investigate if the issue is with the keyboard first showterms show software terms and conditions on startup determines if software terms and conditions are displayed on startup after the document is displayed, this setting is set to disabled if

showfifosize show fifo size displays current fifo controller motion queue size in the operate view for troubleshooting purposes if fifo underrun error occurs, watching this value and how it behaves
