Input the error from the indicator and select the direction of error. Then select Calculate & Apply. Verify the backlash

The spindle calibration wizard requires you to read the specifications from the spindle and insert them into the wizard.
The information needed is the maximum RPM for low gear, the maximum RPM for high gear, and the amps for full
load. These should be input and then Save selected.
The spindle can be tested by inputting a spindle speed on the screen and then pressing the
Spindle FWD or Spindle
REV buttons on the panel. If the spindle is turning the incorrect direction, the Reverse spindle direction check in the
wizard can be toggled. Be sure to select Save.
