Editing through the PAL program

see the PAL Reference manual or
documentation provided by your system
installer

When you use PAL to modify the dresser/wheel radius offset table,
dresser/wheel radius compensation (G41 or G42) should not be active. If
dresser/wheel radius compensation is active, be aware that the new offset is
not placed in part program set-up buffers that have already been read into
control memory. This results in the offset not being activated until several
program blocks after the current block. The number of setup buffers
depends on the number of block retrace steps configured in AMP and what
software features are currently being used.

The method described here requires that the offset data be manually
measured and then directly keyed into the table.

To manually display or alter the offset tables, follow these steps:

1.

Press the {OFFSET} softkey.
