REF. CENTERING –– CIRCLE CENTER MEASURE
(1) When the softkey [X+] is pressed, the spindle moves in X+ direction.
(2) When the softkey [X- ] is pressed, the spindle moves in X- direction.
(3) When the softkey [Y+] is pressed, the spindle moves in Y+ direction.
(4) When the softkey [Y- ] is pressed, the spindle moves in Y- direction.
(5) When the softkey [WORK COORD. ] is pressed, the setup function advances to the work coordinate
setting screen.
Operation
(1) Select a measuring point with the cursor key.
(2) The measuring point can be approached with the touch sensor, by using the hand wheel or JOG op-
eration. Move the touch sensor to a position as shown in the sketch below. The distance between the
touch sensor and the workpiece must be less than ”A”. Distance A is called additonal amount and can
be set at the data setting screen.
(3) Approach the measuring point with the touch sensor, by pressing one of the X+, X- , Y+, Y- softkeys.
For example, by pressing softkey [X- ] , the touch sensor approaches the workpiece in X-direction.
After the touch sensor touches the workpiece, the measure point coordinates are displayed. At this
time the touch sensor separates from the workpiece and moves to return position by the return
amount. In case of remeasuring, reselect one of the X+, X- , Y+, Y- softkeys.
(4) For measuring the second and third measure point, repeat procedure (2) and (3). Separate the mea-
sure points at least by the value of minimum movement. If the distance is below minimum movement,
the error message ”DISTANCE BETWEEN MEASURE POINTS TOO SHORT” is displayed, and the
coordinate of the measure point can not be set (applies only for circle center measuring).
(5) The result of centering is correct, when the X, Y center point is diplayed in the guidance window. Next,
press the softkey [WORK COORD. ] and the work coordinate setting screen will be displayed.
(6) By pressing softkey [END] or [<] , the setup function returns to the main menu.
