The numeric keypad control block enters a mode in
which you can enter parameters for the selected axis.
2
Enter a parameter value with the numeric keypad.
The number of significant digits after a decimal point
is 4.
3
Press the [ENTER] button.
The parameter value is changed, and the image
changes.
To enter difference values
You can enter difference values by pressing the [+/–]
button, entering the difference from the current value, and
pressing the [TRIM] button to confirm. The [+/–] button
toggles between "+" (plus) and "–" (minus) each time it is
pressed.
Resetting three-dimensional parameter
values
Pressing the [CTR] button in the device control block sets
the current three-dimensional parameter values to the
closest detent points (page 222).
To reset three-dimensional parameter values to the
defaults (page 222) for the current transformation
operation mode, press the [CTR] button twice in rapid
succession.
Clearing the working buffer
The working buffer is memory that holds the instantaneous
state of an effect. To clear (initialize) only the three-
dimensional transform parameters in the working buffer,
press the [CLR WORK BUFR] button in the device
control block.
To clear all of the parameters in the working buffer and
initialize the DME system, press the [CLR WORK BUFR]
button twice in rapid succession. It is necessary to do this
for both the local coordinate space and global coordinate
space.
As the initial DME state, you can specify whether to use
the factory default settings or user settings in the Setup
menu.
For details see "Selecting the State After Powering On
(Start Up Menu)" in Chapter 18 (Volume 2).
Graphics Display Operation
Use the DME menu to make graphics display settings. You
can make separate settings for separate channels. To select
a target DME channel, use the device control block.
