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 offset of the
touch probe in the touch-probe table in the CAL_OF1 (principal axis) and
CAL_OF2
(secondary axis) columns. You can display the values on the
screen by pressing the TOUCH PROBE TABLE soft key.
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
manual mode.
For more information about the touch probe table, refer to
the User’s Manual for Cycle Programming.
