    To zero one tool in the offset page move the cursor to highlight the entry you want to zero, type 0 and press F1.
    An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.

    all used tools needs to be measured to run or simulate the program , and the zero point needs also to be set up - when not you will get the over travel range error.
