So we picked up an old Fadal 4020. On my other fadals, the tool page shows Diameter instead of Radius, on this 4020 it shows the tools with Radius instead. I've seen guides that told me to do a SETP and change it there, however, there isn't any parameter when I do a SETP for the tool offset page.

Does anyone know how to change it to diameter on the tool offset page?

It's an old picture back after the battery went dead. I know that the VFD was replaced to the Baldor so all the factory settings that came with the machine regarding to the spindle are different now then they were to accommodate the new VFD. I thought the Ramp parameter had to do with Rigid Tapping, which I don't have. Not really sure.

Hello,

Sorry about not getting back to anyone. I did not realize that people were still posting, I just got an e-mail today saying there was an update to the post. Shortly after I posted the original question, I ended up figuring it out. I thought that I had replied immediately saying that I figured it out, but apparently I did not. I found it on page 2 just as Machinehop5 had said..
