U/V Rotary Table - DRO Position

U/V Table

Introduction

Geomet Versions - 6.66.006.001

The Geomet Digital Readout tool (DRO) provides the current position of the rotary table. As shown in the example at right, the U/V current location is shown in the lower section of the DRO.

Before the position can be displayed, the DRO must be configured to use the rotary table. This is accomplished using the DRO Setup tool, which is accessed by right clicking on the DRO.

When the rotary table has been installed through the System Options, the "Show Rotary Axis" check is displayed in the General / Global Setup group.

Place a check next to "Show Rotary Axis" and accept the change by clicking the <Ok> button. This is a global setting and will remain active until the check is removed.

The display precision is controlled through Geomet’s System Options and is found on the Tolerance tab. For a complete description visit System Options.
