In a system with reference marks, zeroing and presetting are only
possible after a reference run has been performed.
After a restart of the device, it would not be possible to determine the
position of the presets without such a reference. In addition, the preset
table would lose its validity without referencing, since it would not be
possible to approach the stored points correctly.
Further information: "Conducting the reference mark search", Page 226
If you use the axis label X for direct input, the current preset will be
shifted. As a result, the center point will be displaced from the center of
the spindle.
Direct input via axis label X can be disabled or enabled.
