Power Up
Switch on the power (located on the back). The initial
screen will appear. This screen will only appear the
very first time the unit is powered up. The following
steps may have already been completed by
the installer.
„ Select the proper language by pressing the LANGUAGE soft key.
„ Choose your application of either MILL or TURN. The APPLIC.
[MILL/TURN] soft key toggles between these two settings.
„ Next, select the number of axes required. When complete, press
the ENTER hard key.
If necessary, you can change the application later in Installation Setup
under Counter Settings.
The 300S is now ready for the remaining setup requirements. It is
now in the operating mode “Absolute”. Each active axis will have a
flashing “
REF ” sign next to it. The following section, “Reference
Mark Evaluation”, describes setting up this feature.
Reference Mark Evaluation
The 300S reference mark evaluation feature (1), automatically
re-establishes the relationship between axis slide positions and
display values that was last defined by setting the datum.
For each axis with an encoder that has reference marks, the “ REF ”
indicator will flash for that axis. After crossing over the reference
marks, the indicator will stop flashing and change to a non-flashing
“REF” indicator.
Working without reference mark evaluation
The 300S can also be used without crossing over the reference marks.
8 Press the NO REF soft key to exit the reference mark evaluation
routine, and continue.
