3. A Biesse Nest CIX machine's Machine Files zip holds the cutlist CSV.

4. A Biesse Nest CIX machine's Machine Files zip holds Material.csv (material; grain; image; description - one row per material code, grain variants separate).

5. A Biesse Nest CIX machine's Machine Files zip holds Sheet.csv (code; length; width; thickness; material; grainDirection; trimming; description - no stock quantity column, trimming 10).

6. In a machine's 'Clamping Obstructions' table (MES > Settings > Machines, a Generic MPR machine), START Y / END Y count from the panel edge opposite the MPR program's Y origin, as the table's own diagram (the info icon after the title) draws it: origin (0,0) at the top-left, Y downward. A groove 16 mm from that edge (y 544 of 560 in the program) is caught by an area Y 0..60 and not by Y 500..3000. Set the area from the edge the diagram puts at the top.
