5.11 Height Sensor
XC3000Series Motion Control System of Laser Cutting - User Manual
Click on Height Sensor in CNC sub-page, and the setting interface which contains the following parameters will pop up:

height of the cutting head bases on its current position. It is
recommended not to set the value too large. The value can be set as
half of the Z-axis travel. A value that is too larger may reduce the
cutting efficiency.
Optimize short travel
Enable
Enable: use the function. Disable: not use the function.
Using the function of optimizing short travel, if the linear distance

contour is less than the value, the cutting head will move to the start
of the next contour in the follow-up state.
Enable: the cutting head will move and lift simultaneously while it
completes cutting one contour and travels to the next one. When the
cutting head gets close to the position, it will follow down in advance

to improve efficiency. Disable: while the cutting head completes
cutting one contour and travels to the next one, it will lift at first and
then move to the start position of the next contour, and last it will
follow down to reduce the risk of touching the plate.
Leapfrog takeoff height 0
Max frog drop distance 20
It refers to the takeoff height of the Leapfrog function.
It refers to the max distance when the cutting head frog-like drops.

Follow-up Parameter
Remark
The default is fine, and generally, it does not need modification.
It refers to the maximum speed when follow down.
If the follow height is larger than the value, the cutting head will follow
up to 1mm from the plate and then lift to the follow height.
Meanwhile, the follow-up is in closed state for the accuracy of height.
If the follow height is smaller than the value, the cutting head will
straightly follow-up to the follow height to improve the efficiency.
Optimize the algorithm at the set time to make the calibration data of
capacitance more accurate.
Select capacitance jump to be the touch-plate signal when calibrate,
and the value will take effect.
Parameter definition: during calibration, when the cutting head is
seeking the plate, if the absolute value of the difference between the
capacitance value of the current cycle and the capacitance value of the
