Identifying the axis used on a HRT210 Indexer
Identifying the axis used on a HRT210 Indexer
- When using the HRT210 indexer on most vertical CNC machines you always have the normal X, Y, and Z axis.

- The HRT210 indexer adds another axis to be used.  The “A” axis will enable the indexer to rotate 360°.
  - When programming the "A" axis you program it in degrees.
  - You need to use decimal points when programming the "A" axis.
(Example: G01 X1.000 A30.0, this will move the X and A axis at the same time)

- There are 2 ways to jog the "A" axis.

1) Press the A/B button next to the normal X, Y, or Z axis buttons.

2) On the control to jog the "A" axis you need to press the "A" button and then the handle      jog button.  Then select the increment that you want to move the "A" axis.
