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 490)
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 490)
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
setting the rotation angle to the value that you wrote down
previously.
