4 – Display Keys
PRGM/CONVRS – Selects the active program pane (highlights in white). In MDI/DNC mode pressing a
second time will allow access to VQC (Visual Quick Code) and IPS (Intuitive Programming System)
POSIT (Position) – Selects the positions display window (lower middle). Repeated pressing of the POSIT
key will toggle through relative positions in the Memory Mode. In Handle Jog mode all four are listed
together.
1. POS-OPER digital display. This is a reference display only. Each axis can be zeroed out independently;
then the display shows the axis position relative to where you decided to zero it. In the Handle Jog
mode, you can press the X, Y or Z JOG keys and ORIGIN key to zero that selected axis. On this display
page, you can also enter in an axis letter and number (X-1.25) and press ORIGIN to have that value
entered in that axis display.
2. POS-WORK digital display. This position display tells how far away the tools are in X, Y and Z from the
presently selected work offset zero point.
3. POS-MACH digital display. This is in reference to machine zero, the location that the machine moves
to automatically when you press POWER UP/RESTART. This display will show the current distance
from machine zero.
4. POS-TO-GO digital display. When you're running the machine, or when you have the machine in a
Feed Hold, this incrementally displays the travel distance remaining in the active program block being
run. This is useful information when you are stepping a program through during a set up.
When the position pane is active one can change which axis is displayed simply by typing X or Y or Z or any
combination and pressing write. Only that particular axis or combination will be displayed.
OFFSET – Selects one of two offsets tables: Tool Geometry/Wear and Work Zero Offset. Depressing the
OFFSET button toggles between the two tables Tool Geometry/Wear table displays 50 tool length offsets
(100 tool length offsets on older machines) - labeled (LENGTH) GEOMETRY - along with wear offsets. It
also displays radius and tool tip type.
The Work Zero Offset table has G54-G59 plus G154 P1 to G154 P99 offsets available.
The WRITE/ENTER key will add the number in the input buffer to the selected offset, and the F1 key
will replace the selected offset with the number entered into the input buffer. Offsets can also be
entered using TOOL OFSET MEASUR and PART ZERO SET
