 Designing Using Software
 Generation of Schematic Diagram of Half-Wave Rectifier Using EAGLE Software

Step 1:
Schematic Creation
Make a project for your PCB design
Start the EAGLE Control Panel application. Create a new project:

File->New->Project.
Rename the project if you wish as follows: the control panel window indicates whether a project
is open with a green circle next to the project name. Click this if necessary to close the project.

Right-click->Rename
on the project's name. After having renamed the project you can reopen it.

Right-click on the Project name ->New->Schematic. The schematic window will open. Inside
the schematic window:

File->Save as (choose a suitable name for your schematic sheet).

 Stick your “FR-4 material” (Copper Board) on machine bed using 2-way tape or any other clamp.

 Plug engraving bit in spindle motor and connect one terminal of leveller probe in engraving bit and another one
terminal of leveller probe stick on FR4 material (copper board).

 Using the “hand-remote” adjust the X, Y and Z axis and set the origin point.

 Select X-axis and press “=0” button and set X = 0 & Select Y-axis and press “=0” button and set Y = 0.

 Then you can select Z-axis and rotate hand-wheel in hand-remote and move to 2 mm. Now the Z = 2.

 Press the “cycle start” button in Mach3mill and start the “auto surface detection” operation.

 After completing the surface detection it will come to starting position with Z = 20 mm. Then remove the probe
and press “cycle start” button and it will start engraving.

 After completing the Top Layer it will come to starting position, then change the drill bit and drill four corner
of your circuit board with bed.
