Basic Functions
MEASUREMENT READING DIRECTION
Once the system has been put into operation, if the direction of readings,
(positive or negative values) is opposite the desired direction, the DRO
programming may be changed to correct the direction.
See Programming Parameter (Pr2).
KEY LOCK
The Digital Readout provides a function that can be used to “lock-out” the
position offset adjustment keys (+, DATUM, –) to prevent accidental changes
of the current displayed value. To activate the Lock function, press and hold
the ON/OFF key and then momentarily press the UNITS key. The word LOCK
LOCKLOCK
LOCK
will be displayed in the upper left corner of the LCD.
When the LOCK
LOCKLOCK
LOCK symbol is displayed, the +, DATUM and
– keys become inactive.
To de-activate the Lock function, press and hold the
ON/OFF key and then momentarily press the UNITS key.
The Lock function can also be enabled through programming. This allows a
more permanent Lock function since programming can be disabled with a
hardware jumper inside the DRO. See Programming Parameter (Pr3)
