#1 Preparations
STEP 1 Connect the conveyor to xTool F1 Ultra
STEP 2 Connect xTool F1 Ultra to XCS
#2 Start processing the different design in batches
STEP 1 Select the processing mode
STEP 2 Read Instructions before processing
STEP 3 Set variables
If the selected object doesn't need to be replaced, click – Delete variable. Then, select the object to be replaced and click + Add variable.
STEP 4 Import data
After deciding variables, you can batch import data or manually add data.
(Recommended) Use the template
On the Associate data tab, click Download template in the upper right corner. In the template, the variable information is automatically input.
In the file, ensure that the header content is the same as that on the Associate data tab.
For images and vectors, you need to enter their file names.
For text, you need to enter the specific content.
After entering all the variable information in the table, put the table file and all the vector and image files into one folder or compressed file.
Click Import to import the target folder or compressed file.
If you encounter an error tip after batch importing data as follows, you're advised to check the file content.
- Check whether the header content is the same as that displayed on the Associate data tab.
Only when they're the same can other content be recognized.
- Check whether other content is correct. Content may not be recognized if the following exists.
- Missing files
- Inconsistency between file names and the file content
- Unsupported table file, image, or vector format
- Supported table file format: XLS, XLSX, CSV
- Supported image format: PNG, JPG, JPEG, BMP, WEBP
- Supported vector format: SVG, DXF
- Damaged files
- Mix-up of file names for images and vectors
Manually add data
On the Associate data tab, click + Add and modify the content in the newly added row.
Note:
When you import a vector file in the format of SVG or DXF to XCS, the whole object will be ungrouped. Therefore, please confirm whether you've selected the whole target object.
1. If you've selected a grouped or compound object, you can directly go to the Set variable and Associate data tabs and configure settings.
(1) On the Set variable tab, select the object to be replaced.
(2) Click +Add variable.
(3) Click the Associate data tab.
(4) In the table, click the target object.
(5) Click Replace vector.
(6) Select a vector from a folder to replace the original one.
(7) Click Confirm when you finished replacing vectors.
2. If you've selected only a part of the target object in the Batch design dialog box, click Close and return to the canvas. 
On the canvas, select the target object and click Make compound or Unite to merge the vectors. Make sure you understand the relation between original objects and click Make compound or Unite as needed.
Then, repeat steps (1) to (7) mentioned above to configure settings.
⚠️ On the Associate data tab, the header of the table is fixed. Therefore, if you want to process objects, don't change any content of the header. If you don't mean to process any object, you can change the header content.
⚠️ All the objects mentioned in the table on the Associate data tab will be processed. Blank rows or columns in the table will be skipped during processing. Please ensure that all the variables are properly set in the table.
STEP 5 Process materials
In the Confirm objects to be processed dialog box, click Confirm.
In the Frame out material dialog box, click Fill.
Processing requires a decent number of time, please stay patient in this process.
On the right panel, you can preview designs to be processed. If you don't want to continue processing for one design or there's abnormal data in one design, click Skip.
