Measuring edge (A)
Measure edge (A) at two points.
(A)
(1)
(2)
<Remarks>
Follow the information displayed on the
screen to perform the measurement.
5
Measuring edge (B)
Measure edge (B) at one point.
(3)
(B)
<Remarks>
Follow the information displayed on the
screen to perform the measurement.

The part coordinate system is completed.
The part coordinate system is completed as shown below.
Origin
X
Y
<Remarks>
Once the part coordinate system is
completed, coordinate values are
defined from the origin, which serves as
a reference.
The part coordinate system established
in this example matches the coordinate
system shown in the section titled
“Model Workpiece”. Therefore, you can
refer to the drawing in that section while
practicing measurements.
TIP
See Chapter 5 of the “Software Guide” for further details about the coordinate system
alignment functions.
NOTE
When measuring edge (A), note the order in which the measurements are performed, as
the direction of the coordinate system’s reference axis varies depending on the
measurement order.
