Working with the positioning aid

During positioning to the next nominal position, the product assists you by
displaying a graphic positioning aid ("traversing to zero"). A scale is shown
underneath each axis you traverse to zero. The graphic positioning aid is a small
square that symbolizes the target position of the tool.
