12.10 Unit of Measurement
This MOD function determines whether the coordinates are
displayed in millimeters (metric system) or inches.
■
To select the metric system (e.g. X = 15.789 mm) set the Change
mm/inches function to mm. The value is displayed with 3 digits
after the decimal point.
■
To select the inch system (e.g. X = 0.6216 inch) set the Change
mm/inches function to inches. The value is displayed to 4 decimal
places.
If you would like to activate the inch display, the TNC shows the
feed rate in inch/min. In an inch program you must enter the feed
rate large by a factor of 10.
