2 DRO operation

2.1 Display modes

MM / INCH conversion

To display the position of the axes either in millimeters or inches by pressing this key depending on whether the INCH led is off or on respectively.

Fine / coarse resolution

To turn off the last decimal digit (coarse resolution) for cases in which fine resolution is excessive, simply by pressing this key.

Number of decimals

This keystroke sequence accesses parameter PAR53. The first digit corresponds to the number of decimals to be displayed in mm and the second digit in inches.

Radius / Diameter

When these models are used for measuring radii or diameters, one can

display twice the real displacement of the axis (diameter) by pressing this key. The Φled will turn on or off to indicate the double or actual reading respectively.

Notes: - This works in this way if bit 2 of installation parameter PAR04 (radius/diameter) of the axis has been preset as “1” (commutated).

Z axis as a single axis or combination of both (Z1 and Z2). Only at the 30i-T:

To display the Z axis position, one or two feedback devices may be used. One for the cross slide (Z1)and the other one for the carriage (Z2).

When using two feedback devices, the "Z" axis display may show the position of Z1, that of Z2 or the result from combining (adding) the positions of both axes.

The rightmost digit of the third display shows a "1", a "2" or is off to indicate that the Z axis display (2nd one) corresponds to "Z1", "Z2" or to the combination of "Z1+Z2" respectively. This selection rotates by pressing this key. It also shows the text "tool" followed by the number of the active tool corresponding to the XZ coordinates shown on the other displays.

Axis feedrate. Only at the 30i-T:

The third axis (Zs) display shows the feedrate of the fastest moving axis in m/min or feet/min depending on the status of the "inch" LED. To activate or cancel this option, see PAR11 in the installation manual.
