Manual of NVCM Chapter 5. Using of software 5.1 Set Machine Coordinate system Firstly Open the software,as the drawing 5-1 shows,at this time,the software can operate the machine movements,but before the setting machine coordinate system,there is no connection between the software and machine.So first step is to set the machine coordinate system. Figure5-1.

Manual of NVCM orginal point direction, × means searching original point at negative direction; √ means searching original points at the positive direction.As the pincture 5-3 shows,X axis’s original position is at the negative direction,Y and Z’s original points are at the positive direction. Figure5-2.
Manual of NVCM As Figure 5-3 shows,this page also can set machine soft limit points,Soft Max is positive direction soft limited points,soft Min is negative direction soft limited points.The soft limited points values is according the references to the machine coordinate system,so as this example shows,Y and Z axis’s max value is 0,all the effective coordinate data is less than 0.As the Figure shows,according to our current request,we set our XYZ axis soft limited points area as [0,270] [-390,0] [-100,0].
