.....Or....
In Format 1
Set your fixture offset to an E value, like E1 for example, set your tool length offsets using the utilities, then go into MDI mode.
An input example:
T4 M6
S2000 M3
G0 G90 X0 Y0 E1
G0 Z2. H4
...these moves will put tool #4 2" above 0,0 at 2000rpm. Hit the Jog button and you'll go into jog mode, but the display will be in absolute mode showing where you are relative to E1, that is, the display will show
X0
Y0
Z2.
As long as you stay in Jog mode, the display will be relative. |
