OPERATION

The MICRO-LINE can store the dimensional offset of an additional tool.
This allows you to use two tools without having to reestablish zero as
you change between them. In order for this feature to work, the tools
must be able to repeat their location when they are changed (Repeatable
tooling). To use this feature you must first select the tool number (either
0 or 1).

1. Place your first tool in the tool holder.
2. Press the TOOL USE key.
3. Press 0 to select the first tool, then press ENTER.
4. Set the Datum (Absolute Zero) using this tool. See page 13.

5. Change the tool to the second tool you will be using.
6. Press TOOL USE and enter the number 1 for the second tool.
7. Touch this tool to a diameter of known size.

8. Press the TOOL DEF key and press the X key.
