Running a Bolthole Pattern

When you run a bolthole pattern,
start with the first hole. It will display "Hole 1," and then the distance
to the hole from your tool's current position. Move the table until it
reaches 0, 0. After you've drilled the hole, press the
again, and "Hole 2" will appear. Move the table to "0," drill the hole
and continue with the rest of the pattern. If you want to start at a differ-
ent place in the pattern, press
hole you want to begin with.
Notice that the system automatically switches to the incremental mode
whenever you run a pattern. That's because the system is using incre-
mental presets (pg. 18) to measure from one hole to another. As with
any preset, you can find the current hole's location by moving the table
until the displays for both the X- and Y-axes read "0."
After you've completed the operation, you may either keep the readout
in the incremental mode or press the
absolute measurements.
