| style="text-align:left; width: 50%"|
=== 1. Turn on the computer ===
* Press the power button on the laptop
* The system should auto login and launch this page
| style="text-align:center; width: 50%"|
[[File:CNC_Laptop_Power.png|300px|left]]
|-
| style="text-align:left; width: 50%"|
=== 2. Turn on the CNC controller ===
* make sure the red e-stop button is pulled out. You turn it to the right while pulling to reset it
* Press the green button on the silver box mounted to the CNC machine
| style="text-align:center; width: 50%"|
[[File:CNC_Controller_Power_On.png|500px|left]]

|-
| style="text-align:left; width: 50%"|
=== 3. Create Machine Instructions (GCode) ===
* Using VCarvePro on the CNC Router control computer convert design into machine instructions
* The design you have created in VCarve Pro is not a set of instructions (G-Code) for the machine yet
* Launch VCarve Pro
* Open your design file
* A message is displayed that the software needs to verify that the file was created in authorized software, that is normal select yes.
* The resulting dialog box will indicate if you can proceed with machining the file.
* If the software indicates that it cannot open the file, you will need to recreate the file in a properly licensed application. The instructions are on the wiki
* Go to the Toolpath Tab
* You should check the Tool Database to make sure the settings have not been modified
* Click the "Save Toolpaths" button
* Select where the file should be saved, you will need to open it again.

[[File:VcarveToolpathTab.png|250px|left]]

|-
| style="text-align:left; width: 50%"|
=== 4. Start Router Control application ===
* Double click the '''Router Control application''' on the desktop
* Two applications actually startup...
| style="text-align:center; width: 50%"|
[[File:CNC_Router_Control_App.png|200px|left]]

|-
| style="text-align:left; width: 50%"|
==== 4.1. Application - CNC Configuration ====
* The first application '''(Blue background)''' allows you to initiate functions using the function keys (F1-F10)
| style="text-align:center; width: 50%"|
[[File:CNC_App_Blue.png|500px|left]]

|-
| style="text-align:left; width: 50%"|
=== 4.2 CNC Movement Control ===
* The second application '''(Green background)''' allows you to control the machine movement. We refer to this as CNC Controls in the remaining instructions.
| style="text-align:center; width: 50%"|
[[File:CNC_App_Green.png|300px|left]]

|-
| style="text-align:left; width: 50%"|
=== 5. Verify gantry in Parked position ===
* If not, using the '''CNC controls''', move the gantry to the other end of the table
* '''DO NOT''' go all the way to the end, but come within a few inches
|style="text-align:center; width: 50%"|
=== Gantry should be at the far end of the table away from the computer ===

|-
| style="text-align:left; width: 50%"|
=== 6. Set CNC Home: RESET TRIPPED ===
*Using the CNC software on the laptop...
*Click the '''Big Red Reset''' button
| style="text-align:center; width: 50%"|
[[File:CNC_Reset_Tripped.png|300px|left]]

|-
| style="text-align:left; width: 50%"|
=== 7. Set CNC Home: RESET HOME ===
*Using the CNC software on the laptop...
*Press the '''Reset Home''' button
*Machine cycles through X, Y & Z limits
*An error will occur if the machine is parked against the limit switches.
** Using the Movement Control Panel, move the gantry and spindle so they are not pressing against or tripping the limit switches.
*X, Y & Z coordinates should all read 0 (zero) - look bottom left of the screen

* Learn about categories

** if zones are categories, then a tool can be in a zone, and looking up the zone page would list all the tools in that area.
*ideas for tool categories
** purpose / use case:
***Tools (change materials)
***measuring/marking (used but don't alter)
***materials (consumed by process) maybe link to MSDS and have notices about places they should not be used
** level of training required for tool:
***certification (laser, cnc mill)
***familiarity (table saw, ?3d printer, sewing machine) ?should we have wiki tutorials for these?
***safety aware (hammer, drill, Dremel tool?)

* Learn about templates - [https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/wiki/Formlabs_Form_3_SLA_Printer PS1 example]
** please limit the use of inline html and css to templates
** pay special attention to '''noinclude''', '''includeonly''', and '''onlyinclude'''. This is how you show what parts of the page should be transcluded vs ignored when the template is called.

===infobox testing===

[[TrialInfobox]]

it looks like complex infoboxes are built with Scribunto extension using LUA scripting language.

there may be a way to use a css class and the skin, mediawiki's native programming hooks (like OutputPageBeforeHTML), or a plugin to properly position the info box.

currently using inline CSS doesn't allow for reflowing of text around the box, so on smaller devices it may cause problems.
