Chapter III Basic Operation Instructions 3.1 Startup Function Introduction Power on and the display enters the normal display state. During startup, press the key to access the internal settings. This display has an outage memory function which can memorize the current coordinate position, ALE/INC/ZER coordinate mode, and metric/British system measurement mode when an outage occurs.
1. As shown in the figure above, the workpiece position is moved after hole A processing. 2. Hole B needs to be processed now. After aiming the tool at hole A, press to enter a value. (If a wrong value is entered during value entry, you can press the “CA” key to cancel the wrong value.) 3.
3.5 Automatic Middling Function introduction: to find the middle position between two points. Example: On the rectangular workpiece as shown in the figure, find the middle position between points A and B. Function Introduction: 1. Move the tool and aim it at point A, and press the X and Y keys to zero the count values on both axis X and axis Y.
3.6 Absolute/Relative/200 Group User Coordinate Systems Function Introduction The display provides three coordinate display modes: absolute coordinate system (ALE), relative coordinate system (INC), and 200 group user coordinate system (ZER 001 - ZER 200). 1: The zero point of a work-piece is set at the origin of the ALE coordinates.
3.7 Radius/Diameter Conversion (R/D) Function introduction: to switch the axis X display between workpiece radius and diameter modes (effective only on the lathe). Example: As shown in the figure, the benchmark of axis X is in the center, and the tool is at the position of point A. Press the “R/D” function key to switch between radius and diameter display.
3.8.2 Setting the Display Language Based on nationality, the user can switch the display language by himself/herself. Factory default: Chinese. Example: Set the display language to ENG (English). 1) On the user setting interface, Press the key until the cursor moves to to the option field of language.
Page 24
Note: If the modification of system parameter setting is in confusion, you can use the “Defaults” (DEFT) function key to restore to factory defaults.
Chapter IV Auxiliary Zero Position Function of the 200 Group User Coordinate System The display provides three coordinate systems: absolute coordinate system (ALE), relative coordinate system (INC) and 200 group user coordinate system (ZER 001 - ZER 200). The 200 group user coordinate system can be used as the auxiliary zero point during processing.
The auxiliary zero position can be set in two ways: 1) Coordinate entering; 2) Zero clearing in place. 4.1 Entering the ZER Zero Position Directly Without moving the machine, follow the dimensions on the user processing drawing to directly preset the user coordinate zero point, In this way, the user coordinate zero point can be set precisely and quickly.
3. Press the key to enter the ZER 2 coordinate system, set the position of point B, and enter its coordinate value (30,25). push push 4. In a similar way, follow Step 2 to set auxiliary zero positions for points C and D. 5.
Page 28
coordinate of point B is set successfully. 5. In a similar way, follow Step 3 to set auxiliary zero positions for points C and D. After the processing is completed, press the “A/I” function key to quit the ZER coordinate system. 7.
Chapter V Special Functions Besides the functions of detection and positioning, at the display, the following special processing functions are also provided: making holes along a line (at an equal interval), making holes along a circle (at an equal interval), inclined plane machining, and arc machining. The functions make the existing equipment of the users be more effectively utilized.

5.4 Simple arc processing When processing moulds, it is often required to process arcs. In case the shape is simple and the production quantity is very small, resources may be wasted if a numerically-controlled machine tool is used. The function of simple arc processing is provided at the display so that a single work piece such as a copper pole of a mould can be conveniently and quickly processed at a general milling machine.
