The machine will start moving the Touch Probe to the top and bottom of the circle and then left and right followed
by the top and bottom again. When the macro is finished running, the Touch Probe will end in the EXACT center
position of the circle.
A window will popup indicating the exact X and Y coordinates of the center location of the circle. Press OK
Another window will popup giving you the exact diameter of the circle. Press OK to close the window.
At this point you can simply replace the Touch Probe with a spindle and begin your milling/cutting/carving
operation as the X and Y zero positions are now set.
NOTE: You will need to set your Z-zero when you switch to
a spindle with an end mill.
SQUARE/RECTANGLE
To locate the center of a square or rectangle be sure to place the touch probe in the center area of the
square/rectangle. You will need to measure the width and length (in mm) of the square/rectangle. Be sure that
the tip of the probe is NOT touching the bottom of the table or top of the material. Set the Z-axis manually so that
the tip of the probe is slightly below the top surface of the material.
