Control Panels
The ProMill 8000 does not have any controls on the machine itself, other than the Emergency Stop and
door release buttons. All control operations are performed from the control software.
There are two control panels:
The Jog Control panel allows you to move the tool in the X, Y and Z directions, and to control the
speed and distance of that motion.
The Operator panel allows you to run programs, control how programs run, and control the feed
rate, and spindle speed overrides.
