In Position setup info:

 

Press the enter key on In Position.

When the CNC has positioned the tool within the in-position tolerance of the target, it calculates the next programmed move.

At this time, the CNC displays the in-position indicator. Specify the in-position tolerance for each enabled axis in the Setup Utility.

[Default: 0.0004”]

NOTE: The CNC always executes Rapid moves in In-Position Mode.

For linear encoders, as a rule of thumb, tolerance equals two times the resolution of the linear encoder.

When determining in-position tolerance for rotary encoders, tolerance is usually four times the machine resolution (for example, if machine

resolution is 0.0002”, in-position tolerance will be 0.0008”). Use this as a benchmark from which to adjust this value.
