The program is designed to run the selected raster pattern at a Z value of 0 in machine units. The safe travel Z level defaults to 20 mm for metric or 1 inch in imperial. These can be modified by modifying the source code.

The feedrate for Z travel defaults to 1/2 the feedrate entered for X and Y.

NOTE: It is up to the user to ensure that all entered parameters are compatible with the machine settings that the program will run on.
