Handwheel Buttons
These buttons will activate their associated axis for use with the handwheel. The left button of each axis
will move the machine in .010” per detent, the middle button .010” per detent and the right .0001” per
detent of the handwheel. Pressing any of the axis Jog buttons will disengage the handwheel.
Spindle Start
This button will start the spindle at the RPM that is specified on the Auto Bore Cycle tab. Once the button
has been pressed and the spindle is running the button will turn red and read Spindle Stop. Pressing the
button again will stop the spindle and cause the button to go back to green.
CW and CCW Creep
These buttons will cause the spindle to rotate slowly CW or CCW direction. The spindle will continue to
rotate as long as the button is pressed. The speed at which the spindle will rotate is set in the Machine
Parameters and should not be changed unless instructed to do so by the factory.
Jog Buttons
These buttons control the rapid travel of the Vertical, Horizontal and In/Out axis. Pressing these buttons
will allow you to move the machine through all ranges of its travel unobstructed. If the spindle is turned
on these buttons become feed buttons and the machine will feed in whatever direction you have pressed.
The rate at which the machine will feed is determined by the value set in the Auto Bore Cycle tab. When
in rapid travel, these buttons are momentary contact and you will have to keep them pressed to keep the
machine moving. When the spindle is on, they are latching buttons and once they are pressed the travel
will continue until they are pressed again.
Move to
Pressing these buttons will bring up a dialog box for the associated axis. Enter a value that you want the
axis to move to and press ENTER. That axis will then move to that position. You can do multiple “Move
To” at the same time. One after another.
Move To Zeros
Pressing this button will cause the vertical to move the zero position first. The in/out and horizontal will
move after the vertical has moved to zeros.
CW and CCW Index
Pressing either of these buttons will cause the spindle to rotate to the index position. Index position is
with the tool to the right as you are facing the machine.
