The selected unit of measurement is signaled by the position of the decimal point on the
axis. If the conversion is not compatible with the operational conditions of the instrument,
an error message will appear on the display.
With this function it is possible to easily identify the midpoint between two points A and B
of a workpiece (distance between holes centers, geometrical figures, workpiece sides,
etc.). To execute the function:
Reach the first position A, moving the carriage along the axis. Let us suppose that in that
position the axis display will show the value 30.00 (which is not necessary to reset).

Note.
The decimal point of the position will flash.
Move to the second position B. Let us suppose that in that position the display will show
the value 52.22.
Press
A position will appear on the display. This will correspond to the exact halfway (rounded, if
necessary) between the two positions A and B. It will be sufficient to move the carriage to
the 0.00 position and it will be placed in the required midpoint.
This function can be carried out only if the axis is set for
INCREMENTAL
counting. Vice versa, the instrument does not complete the calculation, as this
would interfere with the
ABSOLUTE
counting settings.
