Re: Ramp settings
I would use lead-in and lead-out and ramp on the lead-in.
I'd also recommend that you use the Curve-Fit tool to get rid of all the extra nodes before toolpathing and cutting the file.

Re: Ramp settings
It depends on the material thickness, but somewhere between 0.5" and 2 inches. Play around with circular vs. straight line too.what would be your recommended ramp settings for this file
You may need to move the start node to the middle of a longer span to give it room.
