A setting name is meaningful only in the geometry and process where it is used. Check whether a value is a diameter, a per-surface offset, a complete-part scale or an actual measurement. The definitions below keep these distinctions visible.
- Stud
- The raised connection feature on top of a brick or plate.
- Receiver
- The underside surfaces that contact a mating stud; these can include walls, posts or tubes.
- Clutch / grip
- How the physical connection holds and releases. A CAD diameter alone does not measure it.
- Nexlock Brick System source
- A named, attributed library part with a particular release and source mesh.
- Mesh
- The vertices and triangles describing a surface; a closed solid can still have printing or physical-fit problems.
- Receiving relief
- The local per-surface underside offset in the fixed 4.80 mm trial. Negative tightens; positive opens.
- XY compensation
- A contour adjustment in the horizontal plane, affecting external and internal contours.
- Shrink compensation
- Whole-part scaling intended to counter a measured size change. It changes grid spacing too.
- Recipe
- The printer, nozzle, material, process and relevant fit settings used to prepare a file.
- Tested
- A user-verified profile with complete passing evidence for the exact supported source and recipe.
- Native slicer project
- A project combined with installed machine/nozzle resources and native process settings.
- Loopback / 127.0.0.1
- A network address for this computer itself, not a path to another computer on your home network.
- Pairing setup
- The one-time browser approval used by Internet relay; Advanced compatibility retains local folder and legacy HTTP modes.
- Spool / batch
- The actual filament supply used for a repeatable process and verification record.
