to the tool after completing automatic tool alignment.
Set the gap value for workpiece A:
i. Move the cursor to the "Work coordinate system" field, enter the value 55 in the input area and press the
<Input> key.
ii. Switch to hand wheel mode (MPG), move the tool to the position above workpiece A such that the tool
tip is just touching the surface of workpiece, and then press the 【Z gap】 key to set the gap value into the
G55 coordinate system.
Set the gap value for workpiece B:
i. Move the cursor to the "Work coordinate system" field, enter the value 54 in the input area and press the
<Input> key.
ii. Move the cursor to the next field (extended coordinate system), enter the value 100 in the input area and
press the <Input> key.
iii. Switch to hand wheel mode (MPG), move the tool to the position above workpiece B such that the tool
tip is just touching the surface of workpiece, and then press the 【Z gap】 key to set the gap value into the
G54P100 coordinate system.

The tool length of automatic tool alignment should be saved into the Z axis coordinate of the designated work coordinate
system. The operation is described below:

Setting up the "set coordinate system": Move the cursor to the "Set coordinate system" field, enter a numerical
value (from 54 to 59) in the input area and press the <Input> key. If the extended coordinate system G54 is
required, a numerical value (from 101 to 200) should be entered in the input area before pressing the <Input>
key.
