VRO 300M Program Operations

Position Steps
This step lets you program a positioning move. You can preset up to four axes
at once. The dimension in each axis can be absolute or incremental.
P
OINT
—press an axis key ( X for example) to
specify which direction you wish to move.
Enter the dimension. If the dimension is
incremental, press the
ABS
INCR
key and enter the
number of the step you want to reference. The
reference step must precede the current step in
the program.
Use the arrow keys or the
ENTER
key to move
from one axis to another.

This becomes Step 003. Notice that the X
dimension is measured incrementally from
Step 002.
We’ll use 2 Position Steps to drill
these holes. This example assumes
that Step 001 is a Tool Step.
