HEIDENHAIN iTNC 530 419
13.1 Pallet Editor
 X, Y, Z (entry optional, other axes also possible):
For pallet names, the programmed coordinates are referenced to 
the machine datum. For NC programs, the programmed coordinates 
are referenced to the pallet datum. These entries overwrite the 
datum that you last set in the Manual mode of operation. With the 
miscellaneous function M104 you can reactivate the datum that was 
last set. With the actual-position-capture key, the TNC opens a 
window that enables you to have the TNC enter various points as 
datums (see table below):
With the arrow keys and ENT, select the position that you wish to 
confirm. Then press the ALL VALUES soft key so that the TNC saves 
the respective coordinates of all active axes in the pallet table. With 
the PRESENT VALUE soft key, the TNC saves the coordinates of the 
axis on which the highlight in the pallet table is presently located.
Position Meaning
Actual values Enter the coordinates of the current tool position 
referenced to the active coordinate system.
Reference 
values
Enter the coordinates of the current tool position 
referenced to the machine datum.
ACTL measured 
values
Enter the coordinates referenced to the active 
coordinate system of the datum last probed in 
the Manual operating mode.
REF measured 
values
Enter the coordinates referenced to the machine 
datum of the datum last probed in the Manual 
operating mode.
If you have not defined a pallet before an NC program, the 
programmed coordinates are then referenced to the 
machine datum. If you do not define an entry, the datum 
that was set manually remains active.
