Full Saw Calibration

Before You Begin

Safety: Stop the machine, follow the site lockout/tagout procedure, verify that hazardous energy is controlled, and release or secure stored mechanical and pneumatic energy before opening a panel, removing a guard, or adjusting components. Electrical work must be performed by a qualified technician.

The Retro C is calibration is fairly simple. Calibration needs to only be done on movements that have issues. However a full software calibration can be done in approximately 15 minutes.

To fully calibrate the saw you will need to complete all 7 steps in the “Maintenance” tab under “Calibration”

  • Step 1:
    • In the “Maintenance” tab in the Retro C software and select “Check 90 angles”. Follow the instructions on screen.
  • Step 2:
    • In the “Maintenance” tab in the Retro C software and select “Carriage”. Follow the instructions on screen
  • Step 3:
    • In the “Maintenance” tab in the Retro C software and select “Centerline 2,3”. Follow the instructions on screen
  • Step 4:
    • In the “Maintenance” tab in the Retro C software and select “Centerline 1,4”. Follow the instructions on screen
  • Step 5:
    • In the “Maintenance” tab in the Retro C software and select “Centerline 5”. Follow the instructions on screen
  • Step 6:
    • In the “Maintenance” tab in the Retro C software and select “Horizontals”. Follow the instructions on screen
  • Step 7:
    • In the “Maintenance” tab in the Retro C software and select “Alignment”. Follow the instructions on screen

Confirm the Result

After restoring the machine through the approved startup procedure, confirm that the position or count changes in the correct direction, returns consistently, and reaches the commanded value without an encoder, calibration, or overrun warning.

If the issue remains, record the exact on-screen message, affected component, indicator-light state, and the last change made. Provide those details to Enventek Technical Support; do not repeatedly recalibrate or replace parts without identifying the cause.
