Working with the positioning aid

During positioning to the next nominal position, the product assists you by
displaying a graphic positioning aid ("traversing to zero"). A scale is shown
underneath each axis you traverse to zero. The graphic positioning aid is a small
square that symbolizes the target position of the tool.

Applying the Scaling factor

If a scaling factor is activated for one or more axes, this scaling factor is multiplied
by the stored nominal position during execution of a block. This enables you to
mirror and scale a block.
You can activate a scaling factor in the quick access menu.
