Set Sub-datum
Setting a sub-datum point assigns an offset to that datum from the absolute zero. Sub-datum points can be set either by
sensing the current tool position in relation to the absolute origin or by explicitly entering an offset from the Abs zero.
Values for each axis are set independently, so it is possible to choose different methods for different axis. Sub-datums are
stored in non-volatile memory, so datum points will not be lost during a loss of power.
