To add to the current home calibration data:
press the
{ADD TO VALUE}
softkey
cursor to the position you want
key-in the new data
press
[TRANSMIT]
Important: If a parameter value that is out of range is entered, the error
message “PARAM VALUE OUT OF RANGE” appears in row 0 (zero) of
the screen. If an invalid value such as a float value (decimal number)is
entered where an integer is expected, the error message “INVALID
INPUT VALUE” appears in row 0 (zero).
5. Press the {UPDATE & EXIT} softkey to save the modified home
calibration data. The control then returns to softkey level 4.

The online axis calibration parameters specify the commanded position
and the actual position or the difference between the commanded position
and the actual position of a machine axis.
Once any axis calibration parameter value is altered, the axis is marked as
unhomed. Homing operations are disabled while the axis values
are updated.
Modified Axis Calibration Parameter values for an axis become active
once the axis has been homed (assuming the axis has this feature).
If no axis data has been entered, the control displays the axis calibration
screen shown in Figure 40.1. If axis data has previously been entered for
an axis, the control displays the axis calibration screen shown in
Figure 40.2.
Important: To avoid the accidental loss of your axis calibration data you
should back up the axis calibration points both to control memory (page
40-16) and to a peripheral device (page 40-21). You can then restore these
calibration points whenever necessary.
