out of the jog mode.
9. Counter Balance Override: Function #200 was added to allow for a counter balance override value. The counter
balance override value, once programmed in the PROG mode, is implemented instantly. Once a new die has been selected
in the AUTO mode, the new die's programmed counter balance value is implemented. The current counter balance value
can be viewed through Function #200 in any mode.
Example:
In PROG mode:
• enter the override counter balance value in Function #200 as 2.
<F> <2> <0> <0> <ENT>
<2> <ENT>
• enter die #1's position at 42.000 and set the counter balance to 10.
<F> <1> <ENT>
<DIE #> <1> <ENT>
<4> <2> <0> <0> <0> <ENT>
<1> <0> <ENT>
In AUTO mode:
• enter a die number.
<DIE #> <1> <ENT> <ENT>
