Workpiece origin is the zero of X, Y, and Z in the machining file. Before machining, you must set
workpiece origin to determine its actual position.
Manually move the X and Y axes to the desired origin position, and then press
for XY
clearing, i.e. to confirm the position of XY workpiece origin.
For Z workpiece origin, there are two ways to set it:
Method one is the same as that to set XY workpiece origin. Manually move Z axis to the desired
origin position. And then press
+
for Z clearing, i.e. to confirm the position of Z
axis workpiece origin.
