To create a formula:
• Navigate to the FORMULAS screen
and select the desired DIMENSION
using the DEC or INC soft keys.
• Navigate down to the formula
line and enter a formula using the
functions displayed on the right side
of the screen. Formula functions are
changed using the soft keys at the
bottom of the screen.
Note:
The ND 2100 G includes a wide range of
basic and advanced formula functions.
Refer to the User’s Guide for detailed
information.
Setup
• Highlight the first dimension of the
part.
• Retain the default dimension name or
press the LABEL soft key to rename
the dimension.
• Highlight and rename remaining
dimensions as desired.
6. Configure the LCD display
Navigate to the DISPLAY screen
and select the desired display
characteristics.
7. Configure display formats
• Navigate to the FORMATS screen
and highlight the DIMENSION field.
• Enter the desired display parameters
for the dimension.
• Repeat setup for all dimensions.
Select individual dimensions using the
DEC or INC soft keys or apply settings
from the current dimension to all
others using the APPLY ALL soft key.
8. Create dimension formulas
The ND 2100 G uses formulas to
convert encoder channel inputs to the
dimension values shown on the screen.
Default dimension formulas shipped
with the ND 2100 G simply show the
input encoder channel values as in this
example of dimension A, which is given
the value of encoder channel C1:
A = C1
More complex formulas are created
in the FORMULAS setup screen that
process one or more encoder input
channels to produce sophisticated
measurements. In this example,
encoder channel C1 is used in max
and min functions to produce a runout
measurement of a rotating rod:
A = max(C1) - min(C1)
• Use the CURSOR ARROW kEYS
to Navigate the setup menu and to
highlight selections.
2. Select the language
Highlight the desired language and then
press the YES soft key.
3. Enter the Supervisor Password
Navigate to the SUPERVISOR screen
and enter the supervisor PASSWORD.
4. Configure encoders
• Navigate to the CHANNELS screen
and highlight the desired encoder
CHANNEL.
• Enter all the required encoder
parameters.
• Repeat setup for all encoder channels.
Select other channels using the DEC
or INC soft keys. If desired, apply
settings from the current channel to
all others using the APPLY ALL soft
key.
5. Name parts and dimensions
• Navigate to the DIMENSIONS screen
and highlight the PART field.
• Select other parts using the DEC or
INC soft keys. Press the NEW soft
key to add a new part.
• Highlight the NAME field.
• Parts can be referenced by number
or name. If desired, press the LABEL
soft key to name the current part
