Writing measured values from the touch probe
cycles in the preset table

Use this function if you want to save measured
values in the machine-based coordinate system (REF
coordinates). If you want to save measured values
in the workpiece coordinate system, use the

ENTER

IN DATUM TABLE SOFT KEY, see "Writing measured
values from the touch probe cycles in a datum table",
page 551.

With the

ENTER IN PRESET TABLE soft key, the TNC can write

the values measured during a probe cycle in the preset table. The
measured values are then stored referenced to the machine-based
coordinate system (REF coordinates). The preset table has the
name PRESET.PR, and is saved in the directory TNC:\table\.

Select any probe function

Enter the desired coordinates of the datum in the appropriate
input boxes (depends on the touch probe cycle being run)

Enter the preset number in the

Number in table: input box

Press the

ENTER IN PRESET TABLE soft key. The TNC saves the

datum in the preset table under the entered number
