ABC can be anywhere inside of the circle you just need 3 points to calculate the center.
Basically you press start then move to touch off at the first point then press the 1st point button ,next move to the 2nd point,then the 3rd point. Then press go to center and mach should go to COC.
Hope that helps, (;-) TP

hi vmax549
Thanks that clears that up, but were do i type in the diameter of my edge finder?
thanks Rob

you dont need the dia of your edge finder as whether it was 0.1 or 1.0 it would be the same at each touch point. If you were finding the edge of a part or the corner of a part then that is when you would need the dia of the edgefinder.

Hood has it correct, if only finding COC then as long as the offsett remains the same it will correctly go to COC.
