job clock, and the current display setting (inches or millimeters).

Readout (DRO) - used as a digital readout, the display will show the current
position for each axis.

and part-view graphics will be displayed.

Calculator (CALC) - a TRIG, R.P.M., and geometry calculator are available to
assist with calculating missing information. They can be used as stand-alone calcula-
tors or, while programming, the calculations can easily be returned to the program.

Softkeys

- variable milling functions appear here; functions are selected by pressing the

softkey directly below each category. When a key appears pressed, it is selected. When
