MPI-R10 Magnetic measuring system 7.3 Setting the absolute reference The system allows you to store up to 10 values of compensation offsets (see OFFSEt in cap. 8.2). This allows you to adjust the value shown on the display in such a way that takes into account, for example, wear or tool change.
MPI-R10 Magnetic measuring system 7.5 Target positions MPI-R10 allow to set up to 32 target positions to store relevant machine configuration setting. To program the targets: - selet tArGEtS in the main menu (see cap 8.3) - select PrOG_TG (see cap. 8.4)
7.6 Angular measurement MPI-R10 allow to measure angular displacements. To obtain the correct measurement, is needed to set the parameter Radius with the measure of the radius of the arc where the magnetic band is placed.
