Setting the unit of measure

Application

This MOD function determines whether the coordinates are

displayed in millimeters (metric system) or inches.

Metric system: e.g. X = 15.789 (mm), the value is displayed to 3

decimal places
Inch system: e.g. X = 0.6216 (inches), value is displayed to 4

decimal places

If you would like to activate the inch display, the TNC shows the

feed rate in inch/min. In an inch program you must enter the feed

rate larger by a factor of 10.
