The Digital Readout Programming Parameters are listed below. 
Values in [ ] are the range of values available for that Parameter. 
Factory defaults values are shown in Bold Red. 
NOTE: Programming parameters are not sequentially numbered due to 
firmware differences between systems and provision for future 
enhancements / features. 
Pr 1 – Datum Key  [0 to + 999.999in]  or  [0 to +9999.99mm] 
The programmed value that will be recalled whenever the Datum key is 
pressed during normal operation. 
Default = 0.00 
Pr 2 – Direction of Travel        [0 or 1] 
This parameter controls the sign of travel (positive vs. negative) when the 
measuring system is moved. 
Default = 0 
Pr 3 – Key Lockout          [0 or 1] 
This parameter controls the operation of the +, - and DATUM keys. If enabled, 
(set to 1), these keys will not function and the LOCK
LOCKLOCK
LOCK symbol will appear on the 
display.  This prevents accidental changes when depressing these keys during 
normal operation. 
Default = 0 
Pr 4 – Display Resolution        [1, 2, 3 or 4] 
This parameter sets the number of places to the right of the decimal point on 
the display. When the DRO is in a decimal mode (in, mm or cm), it will auto-
range  to  the  next  resolution  if  the  value  is  too  large  to  be  displayed  in  the 
current resolution but is displayable in an alternate resolution. 
A value of 1 will display x.x. 
A value of 2 will display x.xx 
A value of 3 will display x.xxx 
A value of 4 will display x.xxxx 
Default = 3 
NOTES: 
•  Decimal inches have a maximum of 3 decimal places (4 places + .0005). 
•  Millimeters have a maximum of 2 decimal places (even if the programming 
parameter is set to 3 or 4). 
•  This programming option has no effect when displaying fractions. 
Pr 5 – Movement Required for DRO Auto-On function  [0.3 to 10mm] 
This parameter sets the amount of encoder, or system, movement required to 
automatically wake up the digital readout when it is turned off. 
Default = 0.1mm
