Introduction

This chapter describes the basics of the DP900 DRO.

The DP900 is available with 2, 3 or 4-axes of encoders. The 4th, 'W', axis

can be a Newall Spherosyn/Microsyn (analog) or an RS422 TTL

diferential (digital) depending on the specific unit. You can set the RS422

TTL W-axis to show linear or angular measurement.

Depending on the options that you choose, there may also be extra

connections for a probe and an auxiliary input/output port.

The mains on/off switch is at the rear of the unit, see the diagram on

page 1.

You should always connect the equipotential terminal to the machine

ground to ensure that the displays are stable.

Introduction

Screen layout

Using the Help system

The DP900 has a comprehensive context-sensitive help system.

The [help] key takes you to context-sensitive help so you can find the

specific information you require quickly without the need to search through

pages of information. If you press the [help] key while you are performing

a particular operation, then you see the help screen for the function that

you are currentlyusing. You can also navigate to other topics, by pressing

from within the Help function. This takes you to a list of contents, from

where you can select the subject that you want.

The Help menus use a principle similar to HTML hyperlinks such that any

item described within the Help text that isenclosed within angled brackets,

<>, acts as a link. You can page through help pages using the up and

down navigation keys and through the links using the left and right

navigation keys. When you select a link, the text inverts. You press the

[enter] key or the [arrow-centre] key to jump to that help page. When you

have followed links, you can press to move back through previous

pages.

When you have finished with the help, press to return to the

operation you were performing.

General information

• You enter numeric values using the keypad.

• You use the [enter] key to confirm your numeric entry and return to the

previous screen while saving the parameters.

• You use the [ce] key to clear your numeric entries and return to the

previous screen without saving the parameters.

• The {soft key} labels show the various functions available. You select

these by pressing the corresponding key below the label. There are

two levels of soft keys, which you access using the left and right

navigation keys.

• You use the up and down navigation keys to move between different

fields within forms or list boxes.

Slider bar

Unlike a conventional DRO there are no dedicated axis key positions.

Instead, there is a slider bar that can be used in a far more flexible

manner.

In normal operation, you press the region of the slider bar next to the

displayed axis value for it to act in the same manner as a traditional axis

key. This allows for zeroing or loading values into that axis. However, in

some modes the axis position display can move to make room for

graphics or additional information. When this happens, the axis active

position on the slider bar moves to remain next to the axis displayed value

on the screen. In some modes, you can use the slider bar to scroll through

lists of data in much the same manner as on a PC.

The flexibility of the slider bar also means that for some complex

functions, such as the calculator function, additional soft keys can be

made available.

Information bar

The top of the DP900 graphical display shows the current user basic

display options. It also shows the current Feed-rate, Tool selection and

simple messages. For example, if you press a key with no allocated

function, the display shows 'Illegal key'. The message remains for a few

seconds before automatically clearing and it is accompanied by two short

beeps.

Manual conventions

In this manual, the following notations are used:

[name] denotes a dedicated key name.

{name} denotes a soft key name.

Save and exit

Front panel dedicated keys

Sleep mode key

This temporarily turns off the display and keyboard. All other settings are

preserved. Encoder movement is still monitored while in sleep mode.

Press this key again to exit sleep mode. The LED on the front panel

flashes to indicate that the DRO is in sleep mode.

You can also select an integer value ranging from a minimum of 5 minutes

to a maximum of 120 minutes to select the sleep mode timer. The DRO

automatically goes into sleep mode if no operation is done during that

elapsed time.

abs/inc key

You use this key to toggle between Absolute mode and Incremental mode.

in/mm key

You use this key to toggle the display units between inches and

millimeters.

Ref key

You use the [ref] key to activate the Digifind feature, which you use to

recall a previously set reference (home) position. There are two types of

reference positions:

• Homing: This is the position that was most recently set in absolute

mode.

• Machine Reference (M/C Ref): This is the machine's permanent home

position. You set it up in Setup > Axis Settings > Machine Reference.

You should make a permanent mark on the machine when setting

reference points. If the axis has been moved while the DP900 power was

off, you can recall your reference positions using Digifind.

The display must be in absolute mode to use Digifind.

To use Digifind:

1. Press the [ref] key.

2. Set the axis close to the marked datum, to within:

6.3mm (0.25") for a Spherosyn encoder or

2.5mm (0.1") for a Microsyn encoder.

3. Select the {homing} or {M/C Ref} soft key.

4. The DP900 displays 'Select axis'.

Press the slider bar close to the respective axis.

The DP900 displays 'Referencing', and the axis you selected shows

'Homing' or 'M/C Reference'.

Introduction

5. Press the slider bar next to the respective axis again. The current

position is updated, and Digifind is complete.

Before you can use Digifind to find the Machine reference, you need to

define it in Setup mode > Select axis. The procedure is explained in

Setting the machine reference on page 18.

Alphanumeric keypad

You can give function programs and tools meaningful names. This means

that you can give names to items that have a direct relationship to the task

or tool. These could be company names, drawing numbers or customer

job references. You can use any combination of numbers, alphabetical

characters and some special characters, to a maximum of 12 characters.

When you need to enter an alphanumeric name the DP900 displays the

Data Entry screen showing all the available characters. You navigate

around these characters using the four navigation keys. Pressing

selects the highlighted character. If you enter the wrong character, you

can delete it by pressing the [ce] key.

Press to change the characters from a-z to A-Z and press

to change the characters from A-Z to a-z.

You can enter numbers directly using the numeric keypad.

Numeric keypad

This appears on the right hand side of the DRO. You use it to enter

numerical values. It also has a +/- key to enter positive and negative

numbers, and a decimal point key to enter decimal values. If you enter an

incorrect digit you can press the [ce] to delete each number in turn. If you

press the [ce] key when no numbers remain, the DRO stops the number

input operation. Press the [enter] key to confirm the number entry.

Navigation keys

The DP900 has four arrow keys that you use to navigate around the

screen. In this manual these are referred to as the navigation keys. These

keys are as follows:

• The left and right keys move you between the soft key pages when

there are multiple pages.

• The up and down arrows move you through pages of on-screen

information when there is more information than can be fitted on a

single screen.

• In graphical run-time modes, you use the up and down keys to select

the level of graphical zoom.

• When you are in conventional mode and operating a positioning

function such as Sub Datums, you use the up and down keys to move

between the next and previous datum or target points.

• In the middle of the four arrow keys is a circular key, this acts as an

enter key. It is referred to in the text as the [arrow-centre] key.
