Grid Digitize Notes
1. A guide to the possible grid digitizing paths is as follows:
2. A digitizing patch can be located anywhere in the coordinate system. The digitizing starting point is referenced
from the part zero. For example, setting up digitizing, as shown in the figure on the right below, will record the
first point at (X5, Y5, Z1) and the last point at (X7, Y7, Z1). If the digitizing replay starting point is desired to be at
the part zero be sure to set the part zero equal to the digitizing start point, as shown in the figure on the left below.
This orientation will record the first point at (X0, Y0, Z0) and the last point at (X2, Y2, Z1). For more information
on part setup see Chapter 4.
