Zeroing Axes
Press the zero key to zero one or both axes on the TC200. The
TC200 will prompt: press axis to zero, or press zero again to zero
both axes.

Freezing Axes
Occasionally a tool is to large to fit entirely on the tool presetter.
When this happens it is sometimes necessary to measure one axis
at a time. The TC200 allows users to freeze axes in order to mea-
sure along only one axis at a time.

To freeze an axis, press the freeze/zero axis key adjacent the axis
to be froze. In this example the X axis is frozen. When an axis is
frozen it appears in a hollow font.
