Finding the angle between the angle reference axis and a
workpiece edge

U

Select the probe function by pressing the PROBING

ROT soft key

U

Rotation angle: If you need the current basic rotation

later, write down the value that appears under
Rotation angle

U

Make a basic rotation with workpiece edge to be

compared (see "Compensating Workpiece
Misalignment with a 3-D Touch Probe" on page 348)

U

Press the PROBING ROT soft key to display the angle

between the angle reference axis and the workpiece
edge as the rotation angle

U

Cancel the basic rotation, or restore the previous basic

rotation

U

This is done by setting the rotation angle to the value

that you previously wrote down.

To measure the angle between two workpiece sides:

U

Select the probe function by pressing the PROBING ROT soft key

U

Rotation angle: If you need the current basic rotation later, write
down the displayed rotation angle.

U

Make a basic rotation with first workpiece edge (see "Compensating
Workpiece Misalignment with a 3-D Touch Probe" on page 348)

U

Probe the second edge as for a basic rotation, but do not set the
rotation angle to zero!

U

Press the PROBING ROT soft key to display the angle PA between
the sides as the rotation angle.

U

Cancel the basic rotation, or restore the previous basic rotation by
