Display Options
From the “Setup” menu, select “Display Options” to customize your default settings for dis-
play resolution, point entry and similar items.
ANGLES allows you to define how you would like to enter angle val-
ues—as decimal degrees, radians or degrees–minutes–seconds (DMS).
You should select the angle default setting that satisfies your need most
often. In other words, if your angles are usually dimensioned in deci-
mal degrees, you should make
DECIMAL DEGREES your default set-
ting.
INC DISPLAY enables you to define how you want your incremental
values to be displayed. You may select either “Incremental Travel” or
“Distance to Go.”
• INCREMENTAL TRAVEL - In this view, the dimensions you program
will end at their programmed distance. If you program a 1/4”
move, the incremental display will read 0.2500” when you reach
the end of your move.
• DISTANCE TO GO - In this view, the dimensions you program will be "preset" into the
readout display. Every move will end at zero. If you program a 1/4” move, the incremen-
tal display will read 0.0000” when you reach the end of your move.
DISPLAY RESOLUTION lets you select the resolution you want to display in the DRO.
POINT ENTRY lets you decide what your default setting will be for entering dimensions for
both “From” and “To” points—as either Cartesian (X and Y) or Polar (radius and diameter)
coordinates. The method that you do not select will be available as a softkey when you’re
defining “From” and “To” points.
