Move to Target Location

Touching in the Target location zone opens the Move to Target Location dialogue, allowing the operator to move one or more axes to a specific location.

The operator can enter position locations for the active axes, feed rate (value or Rapid) and absolute or incremental positioning. If the feed rate is not specified, the 3500i will use the last programmed feed rate.

If the "From Machine Home" checkbox is checked, the positions are moved from the home position of each axes.

Touch the Target Location zone, or select an axis in the zone by touching that axis.

The Move to Target Location dialogue opens, and the axis that was touched is automatically selected. The cursor will appear in the data entry field next to the selected axes.

Enter the position location values for each axis that is to be defined.

Touch Use to enter the values, or press Cancel to exit without making any changes.

When the Use button has been selected, the operator will be prompted to “Press Start to run operation or Manual to cancel”.

Press the Start button to execute the change, or:

Touch the Manual button to cancel all changes.
