Haas Setting 9 Dimensioning
Haas Setting Description
This setting selects between inch and metric mode. When it is set to “INCH”, the programmed units for X, Y, and Z are inches to 0.0001″. When it is set to “METRIC”, programmed units are millimeters to 0.001mm. All offset values are converted when this setting is changed from inches to metric, or vice versa. However, changing this setting will not automatically translate a program stored in memory; you must change the programmed axis values for the new units.
When set to INCH, the default G code is G20, when set to METRIC, the default G code is G21.
