2.8 COORDINATE PRESET
These presets are used when working from position value (coordinate) towards zero instead
of working from one position value to the next.
To preset a coordinate, follow these steps:
*
The DRO must not display any menu windows superimposed on the screen. If this
is not the case, press
.
*
Position the machine at the point to be preset. The corresponding reference and type
of coordinates (absolute or incremental) must be previously selected.
*
Press the PRESET softkey corresponding to the axis to be preset.
The digits for that axis will be highlighted.
If the key of another axis has been pressed by mistake, press that key again.
*
Enter the preset value for that point.
The
key sets to 0 the shown figure and the
deletes the last digit entered.
To cancel the presetting operation when started, press the softkey
corresponding to that axis. The DRO will recover the position value it
previously had.
*
Press
.The DRO assumes the new value as the new position value for that
axis.
*
Repeat these operations for the rest of the axes.
Every time a position preset is done, the DRO assumes a new zero point being absolute or
incremental depending on the type of preset selected. This zero point will be located at a
distance equal to the preset value from the preset point.
It is also possible to preset a linear axis with the result of the last operation performed with
the Calculator function. To do this, follow these steps:
*
Press the softkey corresponding to the axis to be preset.
*
Press the
key. The result of the last operation will be shown as the value to be
preset.
*
Press the
key. The axis is preset with that value.
Notes:
It is not possible to preset an absolute position value when REF 0 is selected since this
zero point always coincides with the Machine Reference Zero (home).
