each one as it is selected. The parameter fields will change depending on how many
times the SCROLL button is pressed.
There is a total of four (4) parameters that can be displayed: BLADE SPEED, FEED
RATE, DISTANCE REMAINING, CUTTING DISTANCE.
Zero
The ZERO button is used to indicate the SOFT HOME position by positioning
the blade and the Micrometer Positioning System (if attached) at a starting point just
before the specimen.
Once a position is determined, press the ZERO button and the DISTANCE
REMAINING value will change to .00, indicating the SOFT HOME position.

value. The minimum values for the IsoMet 4000 are:
