Squareness Screen - HEIDENHAIN ND 1300 Operating Instructions Manual

Squareness screen

The Squareness screen contains data and choice fields
for calibrating the squareness of the measuring system.
The calibration of stage squareness requires the use of a
certified square artifact. To calibrate squareness:
1 Place the square calibration artifact on the stage
with one edge along the X-axis.
2 Measure the angle of the square calibration artifact
(ideally 90 degrees).
3 Select the Observed Angle data field, enter
the measured angle using the number keys and
press the Enter key to highlight the Standard
Angle field.
4 Enter the actual angle of the square calibra-
tion artifact obtained from the artifact's certifica-
tion document into the Standard Angle data field.
5 Touch the Enabled choice field to toggle the
field to ON.
