B-63784EN/01 PROGRAMMING 6.REFERENCE POSITION
- 185 -
- Lighting the lamp when the programmed position does not coincide
with the reference position
When the machine tool system is an inch system with metric input, the
reference position return lamp may also light up even if the
programmed position is shifted from the reference position by the least
setting increment. This is because the least setting increment of the
machine tool system is smaller than its least command increment.

- Manual reference position return
See Operation II-3.1 Manual reference position return.
