Page 8: Operating Modes
If the Wizard 550 is configured for turning, all tool offsets are used in both the Actual Value and Distance-To-Go modes. Press the ABS/INC soft key to toggle between these two modes. To view other soft key functions in either Actual Value or Distance-To-Go mode, use the Left/Right arrow keys. -
Page 9: Enable/Disable Ref Function
Once reference marks for all desired axes are established, press NO REF soft key to cancel out of routine. If all reference marks have been found the Wizard 550 will return to the DRO display screen automatically. -

Set and Zero. The current state is indicated in the Status Bar. When the state is Set, and the Wizard 550 is in Actual Value mode, selecting an Axis key opens the Datum form for the selected axis. If the Wizard 550 is in Distance-To-Go mode, a Preset form opens. -
Page 13: I - 2 Milling Specific Operations
See Fig. I.7. (For more information see "Preset Soft Key" on page 10). The length offset may be entered as a known value or the Wizard 550 may determine the offset automatically. See the following Tool Table Usage example for more information regarding the Teach Length soft key. -
Page 14: Calling The Tool From The Tool Table
Datum settings define the relationships between the axis positions and the display values. The easiest way to set datum points is to use the Wizard 550 probing functions – regardless of whether you probe the workpiece with an edge finder or a tool. - Page 15 Probing Functions for Datum Setting It is particularly easy with an electronic Edge Finder connected through the edge finder input. The Wizard 550 also supports a grounding type edge finder connected via the 3.5mm Phono Jack on the back of the unit. Both types of edge finders operate the same way.

Page 16: Preset Soft Key
Preset Soft Key The Preset function allows the operator to indicate the nominal (target) position for the next move. Once the new nominal position information is entered the display will switch to Distance-To-Go mode and show the distance between the current position and the nominal position. - Page 17 Traverse the X axis until the display value is zero. The square in the near zero warning is now centered between the two triangular marks. Presets can be entered in the same manner for corners 3 and 4. Wizard 550...

Incremental Distance Preset Example: Drilling by traversing to display value zero with incremental positioning Enter the coordinates in incremental dimensions. These are indicated in the following (and on the screen) with a preceding I (Incremental). The datum is the workpiece zero. See Fig. I.16 & Fig. I.17. Hole 1 at: X = 1”... -

Press the PATTERN soft key to access the Pattern function. Use the soft keys to select the desired hole pattern function and enter the required data. The Wizard 550 then calculates the positions of all the holes and displays the pattern graphically on the screen. - Page 20 Example: Enter data and execute a circle pattern. See Fig. I.18, & Fig. I.19. Type: Segment Holes (no. of): 4 Coordinates of center: X = 2.0” / Y = 1.5” Bolt circle radius: 5 Start angle: Angle between X axis and first hole: 25° End angle:Angle from positive X axi s to end of pattern: 295°...

No icon visible indicates that the display is a radius value. Tool Soft Key The Wizard 550 can store the dimensional offsets for up to 16 tools. When you change a workpiece and establish a new datum, all tools are automatically referenced from the new datum. - Page 23 Retract from the current position. Turn the spindle off and measure the workpiece diameter. Enter the measured diameter or radius, and press ENTER. Remember to ensure the Wizard 550 is in diameter display mode (Ø) Fig. I.23 Setting Tool Offset if you input a diameter value.

Page 25: Preset Soft Key (Turning)
Radius/Diameter Soft Key Drawings for lathe parts usually give diameter values. Wizard 550 can display either the radius or the diameter for you. When the diameter is being displayed, the diameter symbol (Ø) is shown next to the position value. - Page 26 Arrow down to the Angle field to enter the angle between the longitudinal slide & top slide with 0° indicating the top slide is moving parallel to the longitudinal slide. Press ENTER.

The Wizard 550 provides the opportunity to compensate for these errors and each axis can be programmed separately with the appropriate compensation. -
Page 29: Linear Error Compensation
The required correction values are calculated and entered in a table. Wizard 550 supports up to 200 points per axis. The error value between two entered adjacent correction points is calculated with linear interpolation. -
Page 30: Backlash Compensation
Configuring the Compensation Table Press the EDIT TABLE soft key to view the table entries. Use the Up or Down arrow keys or the numeric keys to move the cursor to the correction point to be added or changed. Press ENTER. Enter the known error which exists at this point. -
