Quick Zero on DIST-TO-GO Display
- To clear out and get a quick zero position display, for a distance
reference move, use the DIST-TO-GO position display. When youre in the POSIT display and in HANDLE JOG
mode, press any other operation mode (EDIT, MEM, MDI, etc.) and then go back to HANDLE JOG. This will zero
out all axes on the DIST-TO-GO display and begin showing the distance moved.

To Origin the POS-OPER
Display
- This display is used for reference only. Each axis can be zeroed out
independently, to then show its position relative to where you selected to zero that axis. To zero out a specific
axis,

press an

Y
or

Jog Keys

inches per minute listed next to the
HANDLE JOG
key (jogging with the handwheel uses the .1, .01, .001 and
.0001 inch increments). You can also adjust feed rate using the
FEED RATE OVERRIDE
buttons, which allow
you to increase or decrease feed rate in 10% increments, up to 200% or using the
HANDLE CONTROL FEED
RATE

keys to adjust the programmed feed or speed 1% up or down with
every increment of the Handle.

Coolant Spigot Position
- The coolant spigot can be programmed to move to the location entered in the
OFSET display, on the Tool Geometry Offset page under CLNT POS. You can adjust the coolant nozzle up to
10 different positions for a tool. Position 1 is the farthest up and 10 is the farthest down. The nozzle will shift to
that position whenever an M08 or Hnn code is executed in the program. When you cursor onto the CLNT POS
column, the coolant nozzle location is displayed in the lower left corner.

Clearing All Offsets and Macro Variables

all the offsets by pressing the

what you really want to do. If
Y
is entered, all the offsets in the area being displayed will be zeroed. The Work
Zero Offset page and the Macro Variables page in the CURNT COMDS display will do the same thing.
