To find the angle between the angle reference
axis and a side of the workpiece
8
Select the probe function by pressing the PROBING
ROT soft key.
8
Rotation angle: If you will need the current basic
rotation later, write down the value that appears
under Rotation angle.
8
Make a basic rotation with the side of the workpiece
(see “Compensating Workpiece Misalignment” on
page 420).
8
Press the PROBING ROT soft key to display the angle
between the angle reference axis and the side of the
workpiece as the rotation angle.
8
Cancel the basic rotation, or restore the previous basic
rotation.
8
This is done by setting the rotation angle to the value
that you wrote down previously.
To measure the angle between two workpiece sides:
8
Select the probe function by pressing the PROBING ROT soft key.
8
Rotation angle: If you will need the current basic rotation later, write
down the value that appears under Rotation angle.
8
Make a basic rotation with the side of the workpiece (see
“Compensating Workpiece Misalignment” on page 420).
8
Probe the second side as for a basic rotation, but do not set the
rotation angle to zero!
8
Press the PROBING ROT soft key to display the angle PA between
the two sides as the rotation angle.
8
Cancel the basic rotation, or restore the previous basic rotation by
setting the rotation angle to the value that you wrote down
previously.
