Displaying calibration values

The TNC saves the effective length and effective radius of the
touch probe in the tool table. The TNC saves the ball-tip center
misalignment in the touch-probe table, in the

CAL_OF1 (principal

axis) and

CAL_OF2 (minor axis) columns. You can display the values

on the screen by pressing the

TOUCH PROBE TABLE soft key.

During calibration, the TNC automatically creates the
TCHPRMAN.html log file to which the calibration values are saved.

Make sure that you have activated the correct tool
number before using the touch probe, regardless
of whether you wish to run the touch probe cycle
in automatic mode or in the

Manual Operation

operating mode.

For more information about the touch probe table,
refer to the User’s Manual for Cycle Programming.
