Install the included Y-center detection pin on the spindle
unit with an amount of extension of about 20 mm (about 1
in.).

Move the tip of the Y-center detection pin to a position
about 2 to 3 mm (about 1/8 in.) above the rotation-axis
center sensor.

A confirmation prompt appears. If everything is ready, press
the [ENTER] key. The center of rotation of the A axis is
detected automatically, and the Y-axis origin point is set at
that point.
The bell beeps when detection ends.

Put back the sensor cover.
NOTICE
Be sure to use the included Y-center detection pin to perform this operation. Using an end mill or the like may make
accurate detection of the origin point impossible.
If Y-axis center alignment of greater accuracy is required, use the [CENTER-Y OFFSET] function. This makes it possible to correct for
sensor error. For detailed information, see "Part 5 Offset Adjustment for the Y-axis and Z-axis Origin Points."
This Y-axis center position is stored in memory, and does not disappear even if you set the X- and Y-axis origin point at a different
position. You can restore the Y-axis origin point to the center location at any time by executing [RESET Y POS]. For detailed information,
see "3-4. Added Display Menus."
