Element is placed outside the processing area” message on P2S with Conveyor Feeder

Hello, 
I am encountering an issue with my xTool P2S while using the conveyor feeder.

Problem: 

When I click “Process”, I get the following error message: 
“The element is placed outside the processing area.” (see attached file)

Given that the design is fully inside the 600 mm processing height and centered, I don’t understand why XCS refuses to start the job.

Here are the details:

  • The xTool P2S can engrave up to 600 mm in height.
  • My design height is 555 mm.
  • The design is perfectly centered in XCS.
  • I performed a close-up (plan rapproché) to ensure accurate positioning.
  • I am using a 600 × 600 mm plywood board. It appears correctly in the camera preview, and the design is fully inside the visible area.
  • Only the left and right edges are outside the camera view, which is normal because the P2S camera width is limited to 500 mm.
  • I am using the conveyor feeder.
  • For testing, I used these parameters:
    • Power: 1%
    • Speed: 150 mm/s

Could you please help me understand why this message appears and how to fix it?

Thank you.
