The current position of the tool in the relative coordinate system can be
reset to 0 or preset to a specified value as follows:
Procedure to Set the Axis Coordinate to a Specified Value
1 Enter an axis address (such as X or Y) on the screen for the relative
coordinates. The indication for the specified axis blinks and the soft
keys change as shown on the left.
2 S To reset the coordinate to 0, press soft key
[ORGIN]. The relative
coordinate for the blinking axis is reset to 0.
S To preset the coordinate to a specified value, enter the value and
press soft key [PRESET]. The relative coordinate for the blinking
axis is set to the entered value.
Procedure to Reset All Axes
1 Press soft key [(OPRT)].
2 Press soft key [ORIGIN].
3 Press soft key [ALLEXE].
The relative coordinates for all axes are reset to 0.
Bit 4 (DRL) of parameter No. 3104 can be used to select whether the
displayed values include tool length offset.
Bit 3 (PPD) of parameter No. 3104 is used to specify whether the
displayed positions in the relative coordinate system are preset to the
same values as in the workpiece coordinate system when a coordinate
system is set by a G92 command or when the manual reference position
return is made.
Only the coordinates for the first to fifth axes are displayed initially
whenever when there are six or more controlled axes. Pressing the
[ABS]
soft key displays the coordinates for the sixth and subsequent axes.
