3. Next, run the Profile Plunger Locate Sequence by pressing CTRL + S on the
keyboard. It is not necessary to run this every time a Profile XY Reference position is
set, but it must be done during initial setup, if the Profile Base is damaged or
replaced, or if the Profile Tool is damaged or replaced. The Profile Plunger Locate
sequence uses the Tooling Offset between the Teach and Profile Tools to read the
Profile Base Plunger to determine a common profile surface for all tools, called the
Profile Z Reference.
4. When the Profile XY reference position has been taught, and the Profile Z Reference
is established, select the “
Done” button, or select “Cancel” to exit and not save
changes.

Workspace Reference
Workspace reference is a global reference position used to help make a machine program
transport or a global offset to the local system.
To teach a workspace reference point, on a typical system, put the machine calibration
plate against the board stops and put the teach tool at the cross hair on the machine
calibration plate. The workspace reference point must reference the part workspace so
that if the part fixture changes, due to board stop location, etc., the workspace reference
point moves with it.

1. Select the Workspace Reference “Configure” button.

2. Click the “Move To Point” button to move to the workspace reference position.
3. If the Move to Point button is not in the correct location, use the teach tool to move
to the necessary workspace reference position. Click the
“Teach” button to teach
the workspace reference position.
4. The Update Reference Position Only checkbox is checked by default. This will
update the workspace reference position but not apply program offsets (The
difference between the original workspace reference and the new workspace
reference). Uncheck this box to apply global offsets to all programs.

5. Select the Z Position from the drop-down menu. The Z component of the
workspace reference can be chosen from the current position, a position that is
typed in, or from the tool position of the tool Z offset.

6. Select the Do not apply offset to Z axis checkbox, if the Z offset should not be
included.
7. When the settings have been set, select the “Done” button, or select “Cancel” to
exit and not save changes.
NOTE: The Teach Tool option must be enabled and the machine must be in Manual mode to
teach the workspace reference position.
