CAUTION
Make sure you do not jog the gripper down more than 5.0 mm at this stage.
Jogging down farther will result in a gripper collision with the setscrew on the platepad,
which could damage the gripper.
When the following message appears, click OK.
At this stage, the gripper fingers should be next to the sides of the
platepad.

Fine tune the gripper alignment as follows:
a
In the Gripper tab, set the Close +G increment to a small value, such as
0.2 mm, and then click Close +G so that you can clearly see the
alignment of the gripper pads with the platepad.
IMPORTANT
Do not click Close gripper. Otherwise, you must redo
the procedure.
b
In the Jog/Teach tab, set the y- axis increment to 0.2 mm, and then use
the Back -Y and Forward +Y buttons to position the gripper so that the
fingers are at equal distances around the platepad.
Ensure the pair of gripper pads on each side are as close as possible
to the sides of the platepad without actually touching the platepad.
Note: If a gripper finger is not perfectly straight, one of its gripper
pads may be closer than the other to the side of the platepad, as the
following figure shows. In this case, adjust the y- axis using the
gripper pad closest to the platepad and the diagonally opposite gripper
pad for reference.
