Writing the measured values from touch probe
cycles in datum tables

With the ENTER IN DATUM TABLE soft key, the TNC can write the
values measured during a touch probe cycle in a datum table:

Select any probe function

Enter the desired coordinates of the datum in the appropriate input
boxes (depends on the touch probe cycle being run)

Press the ENTER IN DATUM TABLE soft key. The TNC saves the

soft key (see “Writing the measured values from touch
probe cycles in the preset table” on page 381).
