DSP controllers use Min Power as the power value used when cutting at or below the “Start speed” setting in your controller. As you ramp up above the start speed to your chosen cutting speed, the power is ramped from min to max. If you’re doing slow cutting, or vector scanning, you’d generally just set them the same. It’s most useful when vector marking or cutting thin material to make sure you don’t overpower the corners. For a GCode controller Min Power is used only when ‘Grayscale’ engraving…
