Example2: SetZero
See "Absolute Zero Set" on page 140 for more information on using the
SetZero
cycle. The work piece drawing shows holes (
1
to
4
) whose
dimensions are shown with respect to an absolute datum with the
coordinates X=0 Y=0. Holes
5
to
7
are dimensioned with respect to a
relative datum with the absolute coordinates X=450, Y=750. With the
SetZero
cycle you can temporarily set the datum to the position
X=450, Y=750, to be able to program holes
5
to
7
without further
calculations.
