11.7 Changing the display units
The units used to indicate the current position on the RPB screen can be switched to either
"pulses" and "mm". If hand data for the R-axis is selected (hand definition is made), then
"Tool coordinate" mode can also be used.
[Procedure]
1) Press (UNITCHG) in "MANUAL" mode.
This switches the units used to indicate the current position in "MANUAL" mode.
2) Each time the key is pressed, the units displayed on the upper right of the RPB screen
are switched to "X" or "J" or "T". However, "T" (Tool coordinate mode) can be selected
only when hand data for the R-axis is selected (hand definition is made).
