    Hi.
    Is there anyway of increasing the F command number other than manually? Doing some tests of my pen plotter (acro 1510 + OB Black Box). The gcode file that OB Cam creates has an F value of 1000 for drawing a spiral. Where and how are the values defined and is there a straightforward way of changing them?

    You specify the FEEDRATE in your Toolpath Parameters:

    Ah, now I get it. You can have different feed rates for different operations. I had my spiral image set to 1000 whilst other operations were 10000. Thanks!
