Each offcut generated in a run is given a unique code. This code is used to identify the offcut on reports and in the board library. There are several different formats for the offcut code.

 

Run name and sequence in the run

Sequential number

Material code and sequential number

Board code and sequential number  

 

For the last two items (Material code and sequential number, Board code and sequential number) there is a separator between the code and the number, for example:-

 

MFC18-BEECH/00001053

BRD201/00002012

...

Use this value to set the separator character (a forward slash in the above example).

 

 Enter the separator to use

 

Any other separators in the text are either part of the offcut prefix (e.g. OFC-) or part of the board or material code (e.g. MFC18-BRD2)

 

See: Offcuts

 

Notes

 

- Valid separator characters are:  !#$%&'()*+-./:;<=>?@[^]_`{|}~

 

- A single space can also be specified or leave this field blank if no separator is required.

 

- Comma is NOT a valid separator
