OK, so there's something I'm clearly missing but I couldn't find any answer in the manual. I expect the reading on the DRO to be the actual travel distance on the respective axis - i.e. 1 inch of X axis table travel should read as 1.000 on the DRO. So I set the resolution to the 1.0uom. What I see is that 1 inch of travel results in the 2.000 on the DRO. So In order to get the actual distance displayed I had to set the resolution to 0.5uom. Doesn't really make a lot of sense to me. Am I missing something or is it how it is supposed to be?
Another question is, how can I reduce the number of positions after the decimal point? My DRO currently displays 6 digits after the decimal point, and I really don't need that kind of precision, a 1/10000 of an inch would be enough. Is there any setting for that? I studied the manual but couldn't find any answer.
