Hi,
Does anybody know how to slow down the pantograph movement on the chinese 60w laser machine, the movement is very fierce and hard to pinpoint any accuracy when using the arrow buttons, at the moment I move the item into position rather than the arrow keys for accuracy.
Is there a setting to enable a slower movement?

You can set the speed of the laser head controlled by the cursor keypad by adjusting the max speed in the kepad settings
