floating reference position must be set beforehand.
Procedure for setting the floating reference position
1 Press function key
POS
to display a screen used for displaying the
current position. Any of the following three screens may be selected:
The screen for displaying the current position in the relative
coordinate system, screen for displaying the current position in the
workpiece coordinate system, and screen for displaying the current
positions in four different coordinate systems.
2 Move the tool to the floating reference position by jogging.
3 Press soft key
[(OPRT)].
4 Press soft key
[SET FRP].
5 To register the floating reference positions for all axes, press soft key
[ALLEXE].
To register the floating reference position of a specific axis, enter the
name of the axis (
X
,
Y
, etc.), then press soft key [EXEC]. Two
or more names can be entered consecutively (e.g.,
X
Y
[EXEC]).
The above operation stores the floating reference position. It can be
checked with parameter (no. 1244).
6 In step 4, the floating reference position along a specified axis can
also be stored by entering the axis name (such as
X
or
Y
) and
pressing soft key
[SET FRP].
By parameter FPC (bit 3 of parameter 1201), the relative position can be
preset to 0 when a floating reference position is registered.
