General Overview

Graphic Positioning Aid

When traversing to display value zero (in the Distance-To-Go mode),
300S displays a graphic positioning aid.

300S displays the graphic positioning aid in a narrow rectangle
underneath the currently active axis. Two triangular marks in the
center of the rectangle symbolize the nominal position.

A small square symbolizes the axis slide. An arrow indicating the
direction appears in the square while the axis is moving towards, or
away from the nominal position. Note that the square does not begin
to move until the axis slide is near the nominal position. Setting up the
graphic positioning aid, see "Status Bar Settings" on page 15 under Job
Setup.
