Parameters

For reference, see Figure 1.

A scan pattern with four pattern patches.

Slice Height
Height of slice for scan pattern.
OriAX, OriAY, OriAZ, OriBX, OriBY, OriBZ, OriCX, OriCY, OriCZ
X-, Y-, and Z-coordinates of points a, b, and c for defining the orientation of the build system IJK and its origin. Point c is the origin of the system, point a must lie on the I-axis, and point b must lie on the IJ plane. Although not necessary, it is intuitive to select point b such that it is on or near the local J-axis.
Recoater Time
Time for the recoater or roller to deposit one layer of raw material.
Print Start Time
Print start time.
Total/Step Time
Set to "TotalTime" to indicate that the print start time is in total time. Set to "StepTime" to indicate that the print start time is in step time. For more information, see Time Measures.
